Amanpuri
Tranquil resort amid a verdant coconut grove
This resort’s name translates from Sanksrit as “place of peace” – and that is exactly what you’ll find at this secluded retreat. As the firstborn of the Aman family, it lies on a peninsula on the west coast of Phuket overlooking the turquoise waters of the Andaman Sea. The resort’s pavilions and villas have an ancient Ayutthayan design embodying Thai elegance. It also has one of the largest resort charter fleets in Southeast Asia, available exclusively for guests year-round.
