Patong Beach Phuket
Patong Beach in Phuket is a nice spot for a beach getaway. There is a lot to do, from different water sports to simply relaxing. There are many food stands line the beach selling local food and beverages that you can buy and enjoy right on the beach.
Also, the stroll along Patong Beach is great, you will find some beach lounges and small restaurants with amazing views.
Keep in mind that this beach can get quite busy, so if you are seeking for a quiet and empty beach this one might not be the best choice. However, if you are looking for a vibrant atmosphere this is a fantastic place to be.

Campus Coffee Roaster
Well, I'm a coffee addict. I need my daily dose of caffeine throughout the day. While checking out the phuket new town walking street, I googled for any good cafe around me. Campus Coffee Roaster immediately caught my eye as it has a very high rating of 4.6/5 from over 800 people.
I went there and tried their coffee. It was indeed nicely roasted and the coffee is smooth. The shop sells other pastries too. It's a small cosy store and you can just slack around here for a little while.
Address: 6 Krabi, Tambon Talat Nuea, Mueang Phuket District, Phuket 83000, Thailand

Phuket Airport Place
If you are looking for a convenient and cozy hotel close to the airport this place is a good option. It is located about 5 minutes away from the airport by foot.
One of the highlights of this hotel is the outdoor pool. It is a nice place to chill and enjoy the ambiance.
Also, the hotel has a very nice location. It is a good option if you would like to explore the nearby beach or the Sirinat National Park. The hotel provides the chance to rent a motorbike which is very convenient to move around.
Overall, it is a good hotel for a short stay.

European-style restaurant
✔️ Atrio Restaurant
📍 Movenpick Myth Hotel, 27/9 Rat-U-Thit 200 Pee Road, 83150 Phuket, Thailand
Atrio Restaurant is the main all-day dining restaurant in Movenpick Myth Hotel and it is designed in an absolutely gorgeous aesthetic! Resembling a chic cafe in a European country, this restaurant is bright lit by natural sunlight and the furnishings are lush and feel luxurious. You can even opt to sit outside next to the pool!
In terms of the food, actually a lot of the buffet items we tried were delicious. Even though it wasn’t a very big spread, the items were varied enough. There were also chefs making egg orders according to guests’ preferences. The only issue was that there were some flies buzzing around even though we were seated indoors.
My overall rating of the experience: 4 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Exotic beach in Thailand
✔️ Maya Bay
📍 Phuket, Thailand
Headed to Phuket for a holiday? I highly recommend that you take a day trip out to visit Maya Bay, a beautiful landmark that was where the famous Leo DiCaprio movie “The Beach” was filmed! You can easily find ticketed tours to bring you to this destination, but it’s recommended that you go early as it gets extremely packed by the time it is 10-11am.
The waters here are turquoise and gorgeous to look at. Visitors can enter the water a little but there are staff on duty to prevent visitors from entering too deep in. Definitely no swimming here as they want to preserve this area from excessive tourism. Just admire from far!
My overall rating of the experience: 5 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Blue Elephant Cooking School & Restaurant Phuket
If you are heading to Phuket soon, I recommend you to drop by the blue elephant restaurant in Phuket to have a meal in their Michelin featured restaurant. Blue elephant is well known for their cooking classes and also their conveniently packed spices that you can purchased from every supermarket in Thailand.They also have a sister branch in Bangkok.
The restaurant is located in a solo colonial building that is surrounded by green. It's located near to the phuket weekend night market Street. Upon arrival, you will noticed the blue lighted bar at the entrance area. Further in, you will see the main dining hall.
We opt for the tasting set menu and was so full by the end of the meal. Portion was really big.

It was made of granite and white marble so it gives out cool and calming energy.
The statues were really amazing and they had a meditation class.
I would recommend doing the 7 minute happy meditation while you are here!
Tranquil peaceful vibe!

Cafe Gabi, Phuket
It’s really easy to find Cafe Gabi, it’s just opposite Chalong Temple. The restaurant offers excellent coffee, delicious breakfasts and Korean dishes. The environment here is quiet, and you can enjoy delicious food while listening to beautiful background music. The owner of Korean is very friendly and considerately installed electric sockets next to each table to make it convenient for customers to work here.
The cafe opens until 630pm, and there are many parking spaces available. If you are happen to visit Wat Chalong, I recommend visiting Cafe Gabi!

Laem Hin Seafood, Phuket
Laem Hin Seafood, not far from Phuket City, is built by the pier, and the fresh seafood is directly from the sea to the kitchen. Compared with tourist areas such as Patong, the price here is much more affordable, and the food is delicious, so it is loved by locals in Phuket Island. We love the relaxed and cozy vibe, and it's an excellent place to hang out with friends and family and take pictures.

An unforgettable experience 🐘❤️
Visiting Phuket’s elephant sanctuary was one of the best moments that we had on the island. When we reached the sanctuary, the staff welcomed us warmly and took us in small groups.
They explained to us the story behind this project, their mission and the way they do things. They also emphasised about the importance of conservation and preservation of the environment. After the explanation, we were encouraged to engage different activities such as feeding, bathing and observing the elephants. It was absolutely memorable!
I highly recommend to have an experience like this. The sanctuary gave us the great opportunity to connect closely with the beautiful creatures and understand more about them.

Escape the crowd - Phuket Old Town🏝️
#wecreate
Not a fan of nightlife and trying to figure out cool place to go in Phuket with lesser crowds? Yeap, Phuket old town is one of the spot. I’ve always avoided Phuket as I personally labelled it as ‘Party Island’ due to its vibrant nightlife. But since Trip offered a good flight price + hotel, I decided to give it a chance for a quick getaway.
The first night in Phuket, I went to Bangla road and my social battery drained. If you’re a party people, you’ll definitely love it but not for introvert like me. I was thinking to find other places to go in Phuket and Phuket Old Town caught my attention.
I went there the next day at around 8.30am and it’s really quiet. The shops are still closed and only a few cafe open for breakfast. I decided to walk around and grab a chocolate drink from a vending machine (it’s delicious!) and take some cool photos since the Sino-Portuguese building is unique. Colourful!
And there’s a plus too if you visit Phuket Old Town. You will get the chance to visit Chalong temple, one of the most important temple in Phuket. I think the best time to visit Phuket Old Town is after 12pm but if you want to take some cool shots without any crowds 8-10am is perfect. If you stayed in Patong area it will take around 20 minutes drive to reach there.

Italian restaurant, Phuket 🇮🇹
Da’Luka pizzeria is our favourite Italian restaurant so far in Phuket.
It has delicious food, welcoming staff and relaxing ambience. It is a bit pricey compared to the other local restaurants but it’s totally worthy paying.
It is located very close to the airport, approximately 5 minutes away by walking.
If you love Italian food, this is definitely your place! Highly recommended!

Private pool villas by the seaside of Sireh Island, Phuket ✨
This resort is incredibly stunning, featuring luxurious hotels located atop the high hills with each room strategically built along the slopes. This design allows an unobstructed view of the sea, and the best part is that every room comes with a private pool. The villas are breathtaking, especially the Duplex Pool Villa B room 106 where we stayed. It is a two-story villa with the lower level comprising a large living area and an incredibly spacious pool, big enough to make anyone go "Wow!". The villa also features a waterfall that cascades over the rock face, offering an incredibly photogenic view.
Moving on to the upper floor, it is beautiful and splendid, with a bedroom featuring floor-to-ceiling glass curtains that open up to an awe-inspiring 180-degree panoramic sea view. The view is so soothing to the eyes, and you can see the vast sea as far as the eye can see. The bathroom is no less impressive, with a bathtub located by the glass wall, where you can soak in the warm water while gazing at the beautiful sea view.
The Duplex Pool Villa B has two bathrooms, one on each floor. The upper bathroom features a glass curtain that you can open while enjoying a bath and taking in the view below. The lower level bathroom is also impressive and offers a view of the pool and surroundings.

The Mandarava Resort & Spa is a hidden gem nestled atop a hill, providing absolute privacy and tranquility for those seeking an excessive retreat. The atmosphere exudes a cozy ambiance, with tall trees enveloping the area. The resort is conveniently located near Karon Beach, offering picturesque views of the beach and stunning sunsets.
⭐️ We stayed in the Aqua Deluxe Pool Access room, which allows direct access to the swimming pool from the room. The room is spacious, complete with a comfortable sofa corner, and a large bathroom with a generous-sized bathtub for a relaxing soak before bedtime.
🏊♀️ The pool in front of the room is a massive Pool Access type that is ideal for swimming leisurely. For those who want to take memorable and gorgeous photos, we recommend ordering the Floating Afternoon Tea set, which comes with sweet treats, pastries, and a tea set for two, all served on a floating tray in the pool. Alternatively, you can unwind with drinks from the Coconut Pool Bar while lounging by the poolside, or head over to the Coco Hut for a cute ice cream snap.
🕯 For dinner, we chose to dine at Charm Thai, a restaurant with delicious cuisine and fantastic views of the sea and stunning sunsets. The restaurant is situated opposite our room, while breakfast is served at Chomtalay, which also serves delicious food and has a beautiful sea view.
📍 Location: Karon, Phuket.

Hidden Island (Phuket) only a few known
#phukettrip
“Landmark” of Phuket
#phukettrip #nofilter
A MUST visit during one’s trip to Phuket. located at the top of a mountain, ride up in car was like a jeep session with steep slope. View from top of the mountain is also magnificent. Buddha statue was so outstanding that i noticed it even from the plane before landing!!
Monks were chanting inside during my visit and many poster of celebrities displayed showing their visit.
However, do note that stairs up is one way and exit is behind the statue. observed quite a fair number of visitors who didnt follow and was called out by the security.
CHILLVA NIGHT MARKET @ PHUKET
#wheretogo
Chillva market is a weekday bazaar that is decorated with beautiful lights and lined with a variety of street food stalls!
If you're thinking of a outdoor Artbox Singapore crossed with chatuchak without the crazy crowds, head to Chillva Night Market!
It's ideal for those who are looking for more variety than restaurants food, as well as some local flavour. It is open on weekdays so you don't have to plan your visit around limited opening hours on weekends!
📍Ratsada, Mueang Phuket District, Phuket 83000
🕰️ Opens 5pm everyday, closed on Sundays

Excursion at the Phi Phi Island
#phukettrip
Beach in Ao Nang, Thailand
A must to visit if you come to Phuket or Krabi.
We went on a full day excursion around Phi Phi Island and did island hopping.
We visited the Viking cave, the lagoon, and a few other parts of the island.
We went snorkeling and swam in the lagoon.
[Phuket] The Beach and Sunday Walking Market
#phukettrip It was more than ten years since I last visited Phuket, but managed to visit the popular tourist spot twice in a year.
I’ve always been a beach person, but I soon realised that Phuket is as much about the beach as it is about the town, and the Sunday Walking Market is the main draw.
When we arrived at 5pm, the vendors were just setting up their stalls and people were simply milling around. But by 8pm, we could hardly squeeze through the human crowd, it’s crazy.
Nevertheless, we still managed to get a taste of some delicious local snacks/dishes for dinner. If it’s too much for you, you can always head into one of the cafes for some respite. So if you’re thinking of visiting the Sunday Walking Market in Phuket, get ready to brave the crowd!

[Phuket] A Luxury Beach Resort Experience
#wheretogo It was my first trip out of the country since the pandemic and I was eager to make the most out of it, so we headed to Banyan Tree Phuket to pamper ourselves.
When we first stepped into the resort, we were taken by the picturesque scenery, and it became the backdrop to our lovely, relaxing holiday.
We were taken to our gorgeous villa with a pool and jacuzzi that we spent half a day in. You could order a buggy to take you to the beach or golf course too. Otherwise, you could just spend the day enjoying an afternoon tea and looking out at the peaceful view.
If you wish to head out of the resort enclave, there’s a shuttle bus to take you to the entrance of the enclave, so you could visit the shops and shop at the supermarket.
All in all, we were very well taken care of by Banyan Tree and would love to explore other Banyan Tree resorts in the world! #freehotelstay #phukettrip
📍My Phuket Moment 🇹🇭
#phukettrip
1. Phi Phi Island - The largest of the Phi Phi Islands, Ko Phi Phi Don is a non-volcanic island, made mostly of limestone. Accessible from Phuket, with all visitors arriving by boat, Ko Phi Phi Don has great beaches and popular diving and snorkeling spots. Much of the island is a protected marine reserve.
2. Kata Beach - Kata beach is very popular with large numbers of tourists but for good reason! The sand was soft with no large/sharp rocks. The sea was a nice temperature, somewhat clear but there was rogue seaweed. The beach is also within walking distance to lots of amenities and restaurants which is great. The sunset is especially spectacular at Kata Beach, overall we would recommend it.
3. Big Budha - Perched atop the high point and visible for many kilometers in all directions is the Big Buddha statue made of white marble. The monument is nearing its final stages and for 300 baht you can purchase a piece of marble, have your name written on it and for that piece to help complete the final building phase.
