When Amanpuri was opened in 1988 it was revolutionary: high end luxury with no rooms, just “villas” for each guest, all set on 76 acre headland on it´s own peninsula amidst a tropical palm tree plantation with it´s own private beach. Many competitors have appeared meanwhile but many consider the Amanpuri on Phuket`s southwest coast still as the most exclusive place to be for high end vacationers. Currently it undergoes a thorough renovation and will open again on 1. September 2023. There are 43 villas and 40 pavillions, very secluded, some with garden views, some with partial or complete ocean view depending on the rate-category. Service is exceptional and so is food. There are five options for dining if include the cocktail lounge called Sunset terrace. There is also a good spa and plenty of possibilities for activities at the beach. Non-motorised watersports are free. PADI-accredited scuba courses are offered and guests can charter one of 20 cruisers, yachts and speedboats available. From the airport it takes about 35 minutes to Amanpuri, to Patong about 45. If you stay for three nights you get free airport transfers (otherwise it is 150 US $ one way) and at arrival you can expect the use of the fast track at the airport. Domestic and international flights frequently land at Phuket International Airport. All in all Amanpuri offers for all those who can afford it a holiday in a tropical paradise with exceptional peace, service, food and privacy.
