Phuket Luxury Vacations

Phuket Travel Guide

Intricate temples, exotic coral gardens, white powdery beaches and lush jungle-covered mountains. Phuket is a dreamy island with magical landscapes and international glamour. Phuket is Thailand's largest island and is roughly the size of Singapore. It is famous for its stunning beaches, lively nightlife and the friendly Thai spirit of the island. It is a colorful world of emerald waters, golden temples and crimson sunsets.

Phuket's tourist entertainment heart beats wildly at Patong, the large, gorgeous beach along the island's western coast. There are countless bars, clubs, cabaret shows, live music and many other hedonistic delights for the reveling traveler.

Moving inland, Phuket's hilltops are covered in lush jungles with rice patty terraces and widespread plantations for rubber, pineapple and coconut. The island's Buddhist roots weave effortlessly through the small village life and into the abundant forest. Wat Chalong is the largest and most ornate of Phuket's twenty-nine Buddhist temples. Many Thais come to Wat Chalong to be blessed by the monks and receive a good luck string to tie around their wrists and ward off injury and illness.

Phuket is a dreamy island for a vacation getaway into a gorgeous land of fresh greenery and exotic beaches.
