As such, you will find the ideal blend of tropical escape, coupled with charming nightlife, cuisine, and entertainment. Phuket definitely has something to accommodate a wide range of tastes and budgets, fromhotels in Phuket that would suit the boutique enthusiasts, to luxury hotels in Phuket for those who want nothing short of unrivalled perfection. That said, Phuket is more than just a beautiful beach destination. You can pick from an eclectic choice of fine dining, indulging on local street food stalls, splashing some cash in the many shopping malls with high-street brand shops, and exploring the variety of exciting nightlife options scattered all over the island.
Phuket is close to many of Thailand's most popular tropical islands, such as the famous Koh Phi Phi. In other words, you can enjoy a day trip or weekend break with a short speedboat trip across the ocean and visit a number of stunning islands while you are at it. Then again, you could spend years on Phuket and still never run out of things to do. Let's take a look at some examples of the unmissable experiences in Phuket: Being a large island, Phuket is enshrouded by many beautiful beaches, such as Rawai, Patong, Karon, Kamala, Kata Yai, Kata Noi, and Mai Khao. For some people, the best 5-star hotel in Phuket would be one that has its very own private beach. Fortunately, there are countless tropical resorts that are located on some truly spectacular beaches, allowing you to spend your holiday lazing in the sun with a cocktail in hand, a stones-throw away from the refreshing embrace of the Andaman sea. As you move around the island from place to place, you will notice the rolling emerald green hills that smother Phuket. It is truly a marvellous sight and if you love exploring nature and relish the thought of being in a tropical landscape then Phuket is the place for you.
