Just got back from Phuket Island~ Sharing my experience! You must stay at these three amazing luxury resorts!
Thailand is truly a place where no matter how many times you visit, there will always be surprises to discover, whether you're an island lover or a sightseeing enthusiast, you can always find a suitable themed destination here! The summer in Phuket never stops~ In the hot summer, it always feels like a seaside or island trip is the real deal. Speaking of Thailand's islands~ Phuket is definitely the first choice for many people. From north to south, Phuket is dotted with beaches each with its own characteristics, whether it's Patong Beach, Kamala Beach, Karon Beach, or Kata Beach~ you can name a few at will, whether it's your first visit or you're an expert who has traveled all over Phuket, you can always find a beach to stay on. Today, I'm going to share three stunning luxury hotels, a must-visit for hotel enthusiasts traveling to Phuket!
👍Highly recommended:
The Rosewood Phuket perfectly combines design, service, and facilities with the local history, architecture, culture, and other unique flavors of Phuket~ presenting a different connotation of Phuket. Rosewood Phuket is located on one of the few secluded beaches on the island, with the brand's characteristic of exploring legendary hotels on a regional journey~ now in the southwest of Phuket, extending 600 meters of Emerald Bay with the theme of 'Andaman Sea Exploration Journey', creating this dreamy realm! The hotel lobby is facing the sea~ the architecture exists in as minimal a way as possible, allowing the natural scenery to penetrate from the outside to the inside, blending very well! The recreational facilities at Rosewood Phuket are equally exciting~ with a spa massage pool using filtered natural water, a gym, a yoga room, water sports... everything you want to play is here! Bicycles are placed all over the hotel, you can also ride and freely travel in the hotel or swim in the infinity pool~ every view here is too beautiful~ I really want to live here forever and never leave!
👍Highly recommended:
The Banyan Tree Phuket Phuket has many famous beaches, and Bang Tao Beach, located in the central part of the west coast, is small and quiet. Banyan Tree Phuket is located in the most beautiful part of it, exuding unparalleled charm~ The hotel is surrounded by lush tropical gardens and cascading water features, with exquisitely carved villas scattered among the sparkling greenery, which is so comfortable! Very suitable for a secluded vacation. The villas at Banyan Tree Phuket have a large private area, the natural wood-colored space is integrated with the simplicity of modern design, and the very complete furniture makes the room feel comfortable and warm overall~ Outside the villa, there is also a matching private courtyard, the pool reflects the high and wide blue sky, the combination of flowers, green plants, and umbrellas creates the unique enthusiasm of Southeast Asia~ It's even more comfortable to soak in the massage pool at night! The quiet pool villa and the double pool spa villa I stayed in are both very nice! Especially the double pool spa villa~ the bedroom surrounded by water and the outdoor infinity pool are simply dreamy!
👍Highly recommended:
The InterContinental Phuket Resort is nestled in the protected bay of Kamala Beach, known as the 'millionaire's gathering place' in the northern part of Kamala Beach, facing the Andaman Sea. The hotel design is inspired by the surrounding natural environment, creating a paradise away from the hustle and bustle! Entering the lobby, with pure white as the main tone, symmetrical space, towering white marble columns, what catches the eye is a wide-open space. I stayed with my parents in a two-bedroom executive club villa, the architectural style blends Thai traditional aesthetics with modern design, with one bedroom upstairs and one downstairs~ each with its own bathroom and toilet~ the pool and courtyard are also very spacious, making the vacation so comfortable! The resort also has a very comprehensive range of recreational facilities, including six scenic swimming pools, a fitness center, tennis courts, InterContinental Club Executive Lounge, Planet Trekkers Children's Club, etc.

A great stay at Banyan Tree Phuket
As you arrive at the Banyan Tree Phuket resort, you are immediately struck by the serene and tranquil atmosphere that surrounds you. The lush greenery and stunning architecture set the tone for what promises to be an unforgettable stay.
After checking in, you make your way to your private villa, which is nestled among the trees and overlooks the shimmering waters of the Andaman Sea. The villa is beautifully appointed with modern amenities and traditional Thai decor, creating a sense of both luxury and authenticity.
As you settle in, you can't help but feel a sense of relaxation wash over you. The gentle breeze rustles the leaves of the trees, and the distant sound of waves crashing against the shore lulls you into a peaceful state of mind.
After taking some time to unwind, you make your way to the resort's signature restaurant, Saffron, for a sumptuous dinner. The menu features a fusion of Thai and international flavors, and each dish is expertly prepared and beautifully presented. You savor every bite as you take in the stunning views of the ocean and surrounding landscape.
As the night falls, you make your way back to your villa, where you slip into the comfortable bed and let yourself drift off to sleep, surrounded by the gentle sounds of nature.
The next morning, you wake up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. You start the day with a yoga session on the beach, breathing in the fresh sea air and stretching your body in the warm sun. After the class, you indulge in a hearty breakfast, with a wide variety of dishes to choose from, including fresh fruit, pastries, and hot dishes made to order.
As your stay at Banyan Tree Phuket comes to an end, you can't help but feel grateful for the incredible experience you've had.

Banyan Tree Phuket ~ Spa Pool Villa
This time we stayed at the spa pool villa of Banyan Tree Phuket , this room type is very suitable for couples and for honey moon. Thai-style architecture, such a romantic bedrooms in the water, beautiful gardens, high privacy, plus Banyan Tree's five-star services. Overall we were very satisfied our stay. The only suggestion is that the food selection and quality of the buffet breakfast could be better and have more variety.

You dont need to go out to the public pool coz you have it in your own backyard, so amazing to ordinary tourist like me.
This luxury resort in Phuket really a more than 5 star hotel for me, from the service, facilities and the friendly staff that makes you feel comfortable and welcome are really worth the hotel stay. Highly recommendable to all travellers out there.

First time in Phuket
The hotel may be a bit remote, but once you step inside, you’ll realize you never need to leave. It offers all the amenities you could desire:

- A private beach area with towels, sun loungers, and water access
- Paddle boards, kayaks, golf, tennis court and bikes available for use
- A small but functional gym and a relaxing spa

Trips for soul?
Traveling to Phuket Island in Thailand for a vacation~ Of course, you can't miss the enormous Banyan Tree Resort
Recently, I visited the Banyan Tree Phuket again~ Staying in the serene pool villa at Banyan Tree, I kicked off a half-month of Phuket Island holiday time! Phuket Island boasts numerous famous beaches, and Bang Tao Beach, located in the central part of the west coast, is relatively niche and tranquil. The Banyan Tree Phuket is situated in the most beautiful part of it, exuding an incomparable charm~ Watching the sunset in the evening is truly breathtaking!
Banyan Tree Phuket is the first Banyan Tree hotel in the world and also the earliest established brand under the Banyan Tree Group~ The hotel is located within the Laguna Phuket integrated resort, surrounded by a lush tropical garden and lagoon waterscape, with exquisitely carved villas scattered among the sparkling greenery, which is so comfortable! It's perfect for a secluded vacation~ Moreover, the entire resort area is very large, it can be described as a colossal resort!
The villas at Banyan Tree Phuket have a large private area, with a natural wooden space that incorporates a sense of modern minimalist design. The huge paintings above the bed showcase the local ethnic style, and the complete yet moderate furniture makes the room feel overall comfortable and warm~ Outside the villa, there is a matching private courtyard, with the swimming pool reflecting the high and wide blue sky, and the combination of flowers, green plants, and umbrellas creates the unique enthusiasm of Southeast Asia~ Soaking in the massage pool at night is even more delightful!

The most stunning Banyan Tree experience
The Banyan Tree in Thailand is truly an explosive experience🌴|||Phuket and Krabi may both overlook the Andaman Sea, but it offers a more secluded and serene choice, and the experience of viewing the karst topography from the sea is unique. The Banyan Tree Krabi is located on Tubkaek Beach on the west coast of Krabi, monopolizing a bay.
The lobby is open-air, making it feel as if the landscape of Guilin has been instantly transported to Krabi. The hotel has also strategically placed an infinity pool here, with sunken seating areas. The 'kneeling' service of Thailand is warmly felt at check-in, complete with a ginger-flavored drink and an ice towel.
-
The resort has a total of 7 major sections, all with beautiful sea views, and a private pool for each unit is standard at Banyan Tree. You can directly enter the water from the bathroom.
The welcome fruit is beautifully shaped desserts plus a plate of local seasonal fruits, with one pair of slippers for indoor use, fabric with leather soles. Another pair is for the beach. The amenities are Banyan Tree's own brand. The turndown service includes a small gift every night, with the first day featuring Banyan Tree's classic little turtle, and the second day a small cloth bag.
Breakfast is served until 11 am, perfect for a leisurely brunch. The variety of breakfast is on par with regular meals, with a balanced preparation of Asian and Continental dishes. For hot food, there's fried rice, noodles, and hot soup noodles, so the Chinese stomach won't be afraid. You can also choose to have breakfast in your room, with a floating breakfast in the pool if you want to take photos.
Afternoon tea is served in an outdoor bird's nest seat near the beach, suspended high and hidden under dense foliage, with a view of the blue sea. The afternoon tea is also impressive. The dessert bread is well-matched by the hotel, including croissants and sandwiches with spicy and sour condiments.
The Banyan SPA has always been the ace of Banyan Tree, so much so that they have their own spa academy. The coolest part is The Rainforest, with its central spa pool, which is truly majestic when all the faucets are open, with water targeting the shoulders, neck, waist, feet, and other parts for therapeutic purposes. Definitely a must-try!!!
The Banyan Tree is very close to the beach, with its own stretch of beach, pool, gym, and children's playground also here. Right by the pool is the Kredkaew bar, where you can order a drink and watch the sea. There are plenty of loungers, swings, and lazy sofas on the beach. The hotel's kayaks and paddleboards are free to use, and there are various fitness activities such as Tai Chi, volleyball, Pilates, etc. Island hopping is also a common choice, with Hong Island just opposite the hotel, a 20-minute boat ride away.

The heart-stirring Phuket Island sea-view pool hotel truly offers an explosive experience
✅ The lobby is open-style, giving the impression that the landscape of Guilin has been instantly transported to Krabi. The hotel has also strategically placed an infinity pool here, with sunken seating arrangements. You immediately feel the warmth of Thailand's 'kneeling' service, along with a ginger-flavored drink and a cold towel.
✅ The resort has a total of 72 rooms and villas, most of which have a beautiful sea view. The most basic room type is a suite, a whopping 99m²! Having a private pool for each unit is also a standard feature at Banyan Tree. You can directly enter the water from the bathroom.
✅ The welcome fruit is beautifully shaped desserts plus a plate of local seasonal fruits, slippers for indoor use with a cloth surface and leather sole. Another pair is for the beach. The turndown service includes a small gift every night, with a little turtle on the first day and a small cloth bag on the second day.

The journey man
[Phuket] A Luxury Beach Resort Experience
#wheretogo It was my first trip out of the country since the pandemic and I was eager to make the most out of it, so we headed to Banyan Tree Phuket to pamper ourselves.
When we first stepped into the resort, we were taken by the picturesque scenery, and it became the backdrop to our lovely, relaxing holiday.
We were taken to our gorgeous villa with a pool and jacuzzi that we spent half a day in. You could order a buggy to take you to the beach or golf course too. Otherwise, you could just spend the day enjoying an afternoon tea and looking out at the peaceful view.
If you wish to head out of the resort enclave, there’s a shuttle bus to take you to the entrance of the enclave, so you could visit the shops and shop at the supermarket.
All in all, we were very well taken care of by Banyan Tree and would love to explore other Banyan Tree resorts in the world! #freehotelstay #phukettrip

I was fooled by the Banyan Tree Phuket, a thirty-year-old hotel that still manages to surprise me like this?
Dear all, today I'm here to share with you my accommodation experience at Banyan Tree Phuket.
Actually, I didn't plan to come to Phuket because I was going to Bali, and the hotel prices in Phuket were too high and not cost-effective. But then I stumbled upon a package deal for Banyan Tree on Ctrip, which was about $300 a night for a newly renovated pool villa, plus breakfast and one dinner. The value for money was quite good. So I cancelled my hotel in Bangkok and decided to stay at Banyan Tree Phuket for two nights.
Banyan Tree is an old hotel that opened in the last century, and it has been in business for thirty years. Some of the old rooms are indeed outdated and appear a bit old-fashioned. However, this time I stayed in a tranquil pool villa, which is the smallest in size but newly renovated, and the room rate is more expensive than the larger Banyan Tree pool villa. The overall experience was very good, the room facilities were very new and modern, and although the area was only 140 square meters, it was enough for one or two people to live in. The space allocation was reasonable, and there were no unnecessary partitions. The hotel's public areas were also quite beautiful, and it was very pleasant to have breakfast by the lake.
However, it should be noted that although the hotel is not far from the sea, it has not been developed to the seaside, so there is no sea view.
Overall rating: 9/10. My rating criteria are different from the scoring rules of previous posts on Europe, America and China, and are based on a series of hotel reviews in Southeast Asia. Specifically:
Location score 7/10, pre-check-in score 9/10, room hardware score 9/10, room comfort score 9/10, hotel service score 10/10, public area design score 10/10, dining score 9/10, fitness center score 9/10, cost performance score 9/10.
First of all, I have to say that I was fooled. I booked the hotel's airport transfer, and I saw someone saying before that only Banyan Tree can pick up people from the restricted area of Phuket Airport, and the process is very smooth. But now it seems that this privilege no longer exists. So my fellow travelers, don't be fooled by the hotel. There is actually no need to specifically book transfer services. Just like the rest of the crowd, you can mix with a bunch of hotels outside after picking up your luggage.
However, the hotel is not far from the airport, about a thirty-minute drive, passing by a lively beach on the way. When I arrived at the hotel, I checked into a tranquil pool villa, newly renovated with an area of only 140 square meters, but the sense of space was still good. The guest room has an open suite layout, horizontally expanded. The bed faces the pool, with a sofa and dining table on one side and a bathroom on the other. The bedroom area is decorated in a modern minimalist style, which is really comfortable.
The variety of breakfast choices is good, especially the fried banana and Thai milk tea flavored ice cream, which is delicious! The outdoor scenery is also very nice, but be careful of falling leaves and birds stealing food.

Follow the island owner for a luxurious vacation and explore Thailand - where to stay in Phuket and Krabi hotels?
Thailand's most popular and well-known island among Chinese tourists: Phuket, as well as Krabi, which is separated from Phuket by the sea and has more than 30 surrounding islands, is also a favorite holiday destination of the island owner. This area has warm and clean beaches, and Krabi has a slow-paced life far from the secular world, with beautiful and romantic scenery everywhere. The beaches of Phuket and Krabi each have their own characteristics, and there are many holiday hotels that the island owner likes with unique features here:
1️⃣Nak Island Luxury Selection
Naka Island is a very small island east of Phuket. Here is a traditional fishing port with white sandy beaches and shady coconut groves. The hotel is surrounded by natural mangroves and beautiful gardens, making it a charming tropical oasis. It seems as if this perfect and secluded paradise has been carefully crafted. There is only one hotel on the island, and a dedicated speedboat is available for transportation, which is fantastic! Naka Island, Phuket, is a luxury boutique hotel that I have admired for many years. Coming back again, I still feel it is super beautiful. It is still one of the luxury boutique hotels that I must stay in globally in my mind!
Upon arriving at the hotel, a private pier is connected to the hotel by a long wooden bridge. The blue sky and clear water give people a feeling of being in the Maldives. After walking across the bridge, you will arrive at the reception area, where there is a comfortable air-conditioned cabin and a copper gong used for a unique welcoming ceremony, which is a great place for taking photos. The sea view pool villa has a spacious living and bedroom space, full of primitive charm, but also provides the comfort that a contemporary luxury hotel should have. In addition to the excellent landscape, the overall architectural design of the villa is like a dreamy cottage in a cartoon world, so cute!
2️⃣Banyan Tree Phuket
Phuket has many famous beaches, and Bang Tao Beach in the middle of the west coast appears to be niche and peaceful~ The world's first Banyan Tree Hotel: Banyan Tree Phuket is located in the most beautiful place, surrounded by lush tropical gardens and cascading lake views. The exquisitely carved villas are scattered among the clear waters and green shadows, making it so comfortable! It is very suitable for a secluded vacation.
The villas at Banyan Tree Phuket have a large private area, with natural wooden spaces blending into the simplicity of modern design. The huge paintings on the headboard reveal the local ethnic style, and the complete and moderate furniture layout makes the room feel comfortable and warm as a whole. There is also a private courtyard outside the villa, with a pool reflecting the vast blue sky, and a combination of flowers, green plants, and umbrellas creating the unique enthusiasm of Southeast Asia. It's even more enjoyable to soak in the massage pool at night!
3️⃣️Phuket Surin Hotel
The Surin Phuket hotel is located right next to the world's first Anantara hotel. Although the hotel is called The Surin, it is not actually located on Surin Beach. The hotel's beach is the relatively lesser-known Pansea Beach, which can only be accessed by passing through the hotel, making it essentially a private beach for the hotel.
The hotel is located on a hillside surrounded by coconut trees and undulating mountains, with elegant tropical landscapes and the best and most peaceful white sandy beaches on the west coast of Phuket. The overall outdoor environment of the hotel leans towards Southeast Asian style, while the rooms have a touch of British colonial style with wooden and woven details, creating a full vacation vibe. The villas are equipped with bath salts, aromatherapy candles, mouthwash, and everything you need, including lip balm, body scrub, aloe vera gel, hand cream, and mosquito repellent...even hats and straw bags are prepared thoughtfully. It's amazing!
4️⃣️Anman Pure
The first Anantara hotel in the world, Anantara Phuket Layan Resort~ The fine sandy beach and jelly-like sea of the hotel are really beautiful, with clear water and visible bottom! Anantara Layan, opened in 1988, completed a comprehensive renovation in 2021~ This is the starting point of the now popular Anantara worldwide, and the appearance of Anantara Layan changed the direction of luxury resort hotel design, which is still regarded as a classic.
Anman Purui occupies the entire peninsula of Panxi Beach, nestled in lush coconut groves, facing the beautiful Andaman Sea~ The hotel design fully utilizes this advantageous location, allowing the buildings to embrace nature to the fullest~ Although the hotel has been around for more than 30 years now, it still attracts attention as always.
5️⃣️Kata Rocks
If you ask me which is the hottest hotel in Phuket now, it must be Kata Rocks! Kata Rocks can be called the "most popular hotel among internet celebrities". It attracts countless tourists to Phuket just to experience this super popular hotel in person! The standalone villas wrapped in white walls are arranged in a mountainous and stepped manner, and the infinity pool is tightly embedded in the street and the sea - with a pure and beautiful view of the sea and sky! It is the Kata Rocks Hotel.
6️⃣️Katathani Coast Pool Villa
Phuket Kata Tanee Beach Pool Villa - This hotel with full pool villas is located on the small Kata Beach, which can be compared to the Similan Islands. It is a bit further south from the Kata Rock Hotel mentioned earlier. This full villa hotel is very beautiful! And the best part is that this hotel is only for adults, so if you don't like being disturbed by families with children, this is a great choice!
This villa resort is not just labeled as adults-only, the details in every aspect are well done. The villa I stayed in was called the Romantic Villa, and even the shower room was equipped with dual showerheads. The bathtub was also a large one that could fit two people. The room can directly connect to Bluetooth to play music, which played from the bedroom and bathroom's ceiling speakers and could even be heard in the swimming pool. It was so cool!
7️⃣ Trisara
TRISARA, meaning "the garden of the third heaven" in Sanskrit, is surrounded by lush gardens, and some villas even have a 360-degree panoramic view of the beautiful gardens, as if floating in heaven. With excellent privacy, private infinity pools, and exclusive organic food from the on-site farm, it offers a warm and peaceful living environment. Living in such a resort, it's probably okay to not leave for half a month. No wonder it has always been the favorite of the upper class and celebrities! It has been chosen as the backyard by Bill Gates and Clinton, and has hosted Johnny Depp, Britney Spears, He Sui, Zhang Zilin, Carina Lau, Zhang Ziyi, and many Victoria's Secret models.
8️⃣Splendid Hotel
Phuket Keemala Resort is located on the beach of Emerald Bay in the west of Phuket Island. Emerald Bay is far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, elegant and quiet, and the resort-lined Phuket Island is like a secluded paradise. The hotel's architecture blends seamlessly with the beautiful forest scenery on the mountainside, and the environmentally friendly and modern design style is just right, highlighting the fascinating natural scenery.
The design style of the entire hotel completely avoids the traditional Southeast Asian resorts and Thai style that we are familiar with. Every decoration, detail, and concept breaks free from the constraints of traditional thinking, creating the most charming, thorough, and refined blend of urban mansions, rural estates, English clubs, and Southeast Asian island scenery.
9️⃣️Amari Sofitel
Krabi is known as the most beautiful place on the Andaman coast. Compared to the hustle and bustle of Phuket, Krabi is more like a paradise. When French romance meets Thai style, Sofitel Krabi Phokeethra Golf & Spa Resort perfectly blends Krabi's stunning scenery with French art of living. Not only does it have elegant limestone cliffs, but also L'Occitane spa treatments, ancient sea caves, and seaside golf courses.
