Anantara Mai Khao Phuket Villas

Phuket is an island associated with sun, sea and sand, and there’s no better way to experience it by staying right on the beach in your own private villa. Every single one at Anantara Phuket comes with its own private pool, and total floor space starts at giant 1,900 square feet (that’s about four times more than your stand hotel room). When you’re not soaking in the terrazzo bathtub, sipping a cocktail on the private decking, doing laps in your own private pool, or making use of the long list of entertainment and gadgets in the room, Anantara Phuket has plenty to do elsewhere – that’s if you can drag yourself away from the villa. There are five dining options (including a rather beautiful ‘tree house’ venue), a poolside bar, cooking school and a luxurious spa to wind back after a long day of being busy… or doing nothing at all. Mai Khao beach, the longest in Phuket, is just steps from the villa and provides soft sand and warm tropical waters perfect for swimming.

Why We Love This Hotel

History: The Anantara brand has quickly gained popularity in Thailand as one of the finest luxury hotel names about, and this is just one of eleven others that the group runs in the country.

Services: The signature Anantara spa is a real eye-catcher here, with a range of traditional Thai massages available in some particularly serene surroundings.
