Close enough, yet far from it all… is synonymous to the setting of Amari Phuket, located at the southern end of the bustling Patong, the island’s most famous beach.
Making way from the town centre filled with the sights and sounds of a happening beach town towards the resort, guests will traverse the Coral Bridge passing a fishing village lined with colourful long tail boats.
Prior to the hotel’s opening in 1984, the only way the neighbouring villagers could travel to Patong was via boat across a canal; to help provide the community with a better connection to nearby Patong, Amari Phuket built the Coral Bridge which till today serves as the point of access for all guests to the resort.
The contrasting calm and lushness of the resort becomes apparent as guests make their way along the driveway, passing trees standing tall along the hillside all the way to the open-air lobby. As they enter the lobby, they are welcomed by a dramatic ceiling installation inspired by birds’ nest. Phuket island is a prime stopover point for migratory birds and also home to many unique species, and the ceiling installation reflects the island’s diverse wildlife.
The installation is handcrafted from rattan, an important item in local daily life. The lobby area directly connects to the Superior and Deluxe Wings, the original parts of the hotel. There are 197 superior rooms, deluxe rooms, and suites, each of which is a comfortable haven brimming with personality.
Every room has an ocean view and a private balcony, where guests can relax and enjoy the sea breeze. With twice the space and luxury, the suites offer added comfort and a private sun terrace with a magnificent view of Patong Bay.
Stepping down to the Samutr Bar aptly named for its stunning ocean views as “Samutr” is Thai for ocean, guests can relax during the day lounging on day beds or until late with nightly entertainment. Just below the bar is the Voyager Lounge, where guests can unwind.
The Lounge also has a library and computer stations with complimentary Internet access. Perfect for those wanting to enjoy their holiday to every last minute, guests can relax in the Lounge or utilise the locker room with storage facilities and showers for that last snorkel before boarding a late flight! To keep the little ones entertained, the Kids Club next door offers activities and space for them to play.
Leaving the lobby area, guests will see the first of three pools at Amari Phuket. The lap pool is ideal to swim or lounge the day away whilst enjoying drinks and foods from the adjacent La Gritta serving authentic Italian dishes inspired by the home cooking of Chef Marco Cacia. Following the covered walkways, guests will make way to another seaside dining option: Rim Talay, an all-day dining restaurant serving extensive international à la carte menu, alongside daily theme night buffets and live cooking stations.
Guests can also relax with a cocktail and light nibbles at the Rim Talay Pool Bar, lounging on the day beds dotting the freeform pool. Here guests also have a chance to see the natural preserved coral reef of Patong Beach which becomes visible during the low tide on the beach in front of Rim Talay.
Moving further towards the end of the resort’s hidden cove is the Breeze Spa. Ideal for a day of relaxation, guests can choose from a range of body massages and facial treatments in open-air pagodas or “salas” dotted across the hillside. Relax with a massage as the sounds of the ocean helps drift you to sleep.
Venturing through the lush tropical forest with rich green canopies over top and sounds of the water cascading town from the hill, guests will find a private jetty at the very edge of this private cove. A prime viewing spot, guests will enjoy a unique view of three beaches: Patong, Kalim and Tri Trang.
The Jetty offers another spot to relax in the sun or enjoy a memorable private dining experience under the stars in the evening. Here guests can also grab a snorkel and explore the schools of colourful marine life.
For an elevated perspective, guests can venture up to the new all-suite Ocean Wing perched atop the beach wing of the resort. Comprising 183 units, divided into one-bedroom and two-bedroom suites with extra space, including kitchens and dining areas, the Ocean Wing introduces a new standard of accommodation to Phuket.
The wing is also home to the exclusive Clubhouse, where club guests can enjoy awe-inspiring 270-degree view of Patong Bay. Designed to offer enhanced privacy and enjoyment, the Clubhouse features an infinity pool, a sun deck, and its own fitness centre, all of which are reserved exclusively for club guests.
The Clubhouse Lounge serves breakfast and an all-day à la carte dining menu. Complimentary tea, coffee and light snacks are available throughout the day, with sunset complimentary cocktails and pre-dinner canapés served daily from 17:30 to 18:30 hrs.
Guest can visit the well-equipped FIT Centre to burn some calories. Make the most of Amari Phuket’s extensive facilities, which include resort shops, a dive centre and a tailor. The resort also offers the Idea Room and Coral Room for small meetings or events.
