The J.W. Marriott Resort and Spa is spectacular from the imposing lobby with its expansive infinity pool to the 265 luxurious rooms or suites which face the Andaman Sea or command views of the tropical gardens or pools. There are 10 restaurants and bars, a magnificent spa and wellness center and three outdoor pools. The property is on an extensive beach which currently has no neighboring buildings enabling long walks on deserted sands. Special touches include twice daily visits from housekeeping, a daily newspaper delivered to your room, and Thai ladies – not hotel employees – provide an excellent inexpensive massage on the beach.

One snag is that you are cut off from the rest of Phuket since the resort is at the northern end of the island. But if all you want is to be pampered and relax in a tropical haven that really doesn’t matter. Read our customer reviews?
