Terraced above a beautiful beach in Phuket is the luxury resort named Amanpuri, a Sanskrit word meaning "Place of Peace." Indeed Amanpuri is a peaceful private retreat favored by celebrities like Fergie and Mick Jagger. Musician Carol Conners visited here with her best friend and says, "Not a minute of the day went by that I did not wish to be with someone I loved. Romantic beyond romantic."
Inspired by Buddhist temples, the forty private pavilion suites and twenty-eight villas serve as your own private hideaway. The open and airy floorplan allows you to fully enjoy your view of the beach. Keeping with its Buddhist influences, the decor is simple and uncluttered but still extremely comfortable.
Activities at Amanpuri are centered around the water. Down the steps from your room is a fabulous 100-foot-long black-tiled pool perfect for a morning dip. Further down the hill is the beach where you can sun, swim, surf, and sail. Amancruises, the resort's charter service, offers private excursions to nearby islands and bays. Back up the hill, you'll find a complete health and beauty salon. At night, take advantage of the excellent room service and enjoy a romantic meal in the privacy of your own room.
