Hotels & Resorts in Phuket
Resort tourism has become the major industry in Phuket, the largest island in Thailand. With pristine white sand beaches, world-class dive sites in the Andaman Sea and some of the finest championship golf courses in Asia, Phuket is a highly desirable destination for golfers and non-golfers alike. Phuket's plentiful hotels and resorts offer the ultimate in luxurious hospitality.

Banyan Tree Phuket

This five-star resort, set on a secluded beachfront, was voted the "World's Best Spa Resort" by readers of Conde Nast Traveler magazine. Banyan Tree guests enjoy private villas, each with its own personal landscaped garden and open air sunken bathtub, situated around a tropical lagoon. Pool vllas and double pool villas come with their own private swimming pool and feature "floating" bed pavilions set over tranquil lily ponds. Banyan Tree offers package deals to golfers that include accommodations and play at Laguna Phuket Golf Club, considered one of the best courses in Asia. Other packages include luxury spa treatments, meals and activities.
