5 Best Luxury Travel Experiences in Phuket

When money’s no object, a wealth of luxury travel experiences is yours to enjoy. What sets these experiences apart is the attention to detail. From offering faultless service to crafting bespoke itineraries and personally curated menus, everything is catered to you alone. Here’s a glimpse of what it means to discover Phuket in style:

1. Flightseeing is the new sightseeing experience

Up, up and away! A flightseeing tour via helicopter offers a one-of-a-kind travel adventure. Tours over Phuket, Phang Nga Bay and Koh Phi Phi are popular choices among vacationers. However, as with all luxury travel experiences, the options are endless. Looking for something extra special? Aerial photography sessions, wedding proposals and sunset flights (complete with champagne) may be arranged. For an additional surge of adrenaline, opt for the door-off flight option.

2. Cruise across the ocean on a luxury yacht

Soak up Phuket’s tropical vibes the luxe way with a luxury yacht charter. Your bespoke itinerary will be crafted based on your travel preferences. You can include trips out to picturesque destinations like Phang Nga Bay, Krabi or the idyllic Koh Lanta. Time-pressed vacationers who can’t afford to fit in a week-long island-hopping expedition may want to charter a yacht for sunset cruises or lavish private parties.

3. Enjoy full-body indulgence at a top-notch spa

Spa treatments are aplenty in Phuket, but the best parlours on the island distinguish themselves with the following: incredible massage treatments, impeccable service and an immaculate setting. Mandara Spa at JW Marriott Phuket Resort & Spaa is a place that ticks off all three boxes, with its private treatment suites, terrazzo plunge pools, herbal steam room and spacious vanity.

Or enjoy the serenity and luxuries that a place like Banyan Tree Spa Phuket offers – much attention to each and every element of the treatment, from the service to organic products and atmosphere. For an unforgettable experience, you can’t miss out on Trisara’s legendary six hand massage treatment.

4. Tuck into a fine feast created for two

There are few experiences that feel as luxe as a private dining experience made for two. Phuket throws out plenty of options for an intimate dinner. At a popular venue like Kata Rocks, private dining experiences are crafted with care. You can enjoy meals in one of the ultra-chic penthouse villas, with a dinner menu featuring six courses and perfectly paired wines. Anantara Phuket‘s beautifully named private dining experience – ‘Dining by Design‘ – is a close contender. The experience is perfect from the start to end – from the menu to service and setting.

The ultra-luxurious Naka Island never fails to deliver an incredible vacation experience, and it’s the same when it comes to dining. Cosying up in the romance of the starry night sky has never been better with the venue’s rustic beachside sala, delectable four course dinner and attentive service.

5. Live it up at an ultra-luxe villa
