PHUKET: The ‘Villa Quarantine’ model for allowing tourists into Thailand tested in Phuket at the Sri Panwa resort has been praised as a success and will be rolled out elsewhere throughout the country from next month.

The first group of 58* travellers successfully completed the first Villa Quarantine pilot project on Monday (Mar 8 ) and are now free to embark on a one-month tour of the country,  the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) announced through a release today (Mar 10), issued following a press conference at the Sri Panwa resort this morning led by Tourism and Sports Minister Phiphat Ratchakitprakarn and TAT Governor Yuthasak Supasorn.

“The Villa Quarantine project at Sri Panwa Phuket was endorsed by the Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA), and paves the way for the launch of a larger area quarantine initiative that is tentatively scheduled to start in April-May 2021,” the TAT release said.
