Best Honeymoon Hotels

We know that a nice honeymoon hotel is important in your vacation. Nice resorts add more romantic and pleasant memory to couples. Our recommendation not only focus on the star standard but also the real experience and the service for western guests.

Real unique scenery and good service is always our standard. We use only those that continuously receive positive feedback. Some boutique hotels have unique design or location; we also suggest these as far as you tell us your interests.

Briefly, you will find a large variety of honeymoon resort in middle Phuket, that is around Patong Beach. Villas, resorts, bungalow, resort with private pool or infinite pool, all you can find different types. But in peak season, northern Phuket such as Kamala Beach, Bang Tao Beach and Surin Beach will be better for traffic and a quiet beach.
