Phuket, a lovely island on the South of Thailand, is one of the most popular resort destinations for those of us in HK who wants a cheap but luxurious weekend getaway. One of the great thing about Phuket is the lovely resorts and great services offered by the local Thais. We stayed at the Anantara this time and they upgraded us to their Laguna Pool Villa. The hotel is lovely and all rooms have private pools. Although the pool is a bit small, it was great to have a private pool where you can enjoy a dip any time of the day. Food at the Anantara is quite good but expensive. So we ate out at the local Thai restaurants on most nights. If you want night life and shopping, Anantara is not the place for you. It's situated at Mai Khao (15 mins from the airport) which is far from all the happening places like Patong (1.5 hours from Patong).
We truly enjoyed our stay at the Anantara so if you are looking for a romantic and relaxing getaway, I would highly recommend it. We also tried their in villa BBQ. Not cheap (around HK$600/person) but was quite fun and food was good.
We were blessed with great weather during our stay and look at the lovely sunset....the colour of the sky is amazing ....
