Brian Skyum, owner/manager of Coco Palace Resort, came to Thailand in 1997 after spending time in some of the most remote and exotic corners of the world.

 

In 1973, Brian started traveling and taking pictures. By 1977 friends and family recognized the quality and uniqueness of the work and so Brian begin his life as a professional photographer. 20 years later, after having traveled to about 170 countries, Brian chose Phuket as a home base. He came in 1997 and “holed up” in the On On Hotel in Phuket Town for a few months to design his dream resort. A few years later, the dream became a reality and now everyone can enjoy Coco Palace Resort.
