Amanpuri Phuket

118 Moo 3 Srissunthorn   Phuket 83000   Thailand

Phuket Island is off the west coast of the Kra Isthmus, 890km south of Bangkok. Phuket is served by numerous domestic and regional flights and Bangkok, less than two hours flying time away, has connections to major international destinations. Complimentary private limousine transfers to and from Phuket airport are offered to guests and the 17km drive to Amanpuri takes 25 minutes.

Thailand’s air is sweet. Not metaphorically, but literally. It invades the senses and gives travelers an undeniable glow. Here on Phuket,Thailand’s largest island, guests to Amanpuri will stay in one of 40 pavilions and villas, connected with elevated walkways passing through mature coconut palm groves. Set up like a temple in reverence of the beach, stone stairs lead a pilgrimage from the main grounds to the sand and ocean.  There’s a gym for the proactive type, as well as tennis and a pool, but the real pursuit here is one for the tastebuds. From the French and Japanese fusion Kaiseki cuisine, to the cocktail bar at the beach-club, you’ll have a hard time with that “no eating or drinking an hour before swimming” rule.
