Where to stay on Mai Khao Beach?
Contents
Mai Khao Beach Hotels benefit from a unique location in Phuket, a perfect place if you prefer to stay away from the crowd. The beach is part of a protected national park; you will meet almost no one on the beach past the Phuket airport area. If you are after an isolated romantic escape, Mai Khao Beach could be your place. Enjoy magnificent sunset and long walks on the beach with only the sound of the waves as a background.
The geography of Mai Khao Beach
Mai Khao Beach is 11 kilometres long. Most of the hotels are 5-stars, and as you can expect, they come with a price and fantastic service, features, and rooms. There are a couple of options if you are on a tighter budget. Note also that those hotels are in a national park, so they must be a few meters away from the sand. You need to cross a hundred meters of grass to reach the beach, which is not much, but it changes the perception slightly. There are also no beach chairs and just a couple of bars and restaurants on the beach.
Sala Phuket
Sala Phuket is a little different from any other hotel in Mai Khao. The main feature is the pool villas with total privacy. Each villa features an oversized pool, larger than the bedroom itself, which is not often the case when you book a pool villa. The bathtub and entire bathroom are outdoors, making it a fun experience. Sala also has a beautiful spa with a program for couples. The restaurants, bars and the main pool area are close to the sea with just 50 m of lawn to cross on the beach—a very relaxing place to hide away from your loved one. Read more here
