Are you planning a romantic getaway? Dreaming of sunshine, sandy beaches, palm trees and strolling arm in arm with your other half? Then, look no further!
Phuket, the ultimate tropical gem, is an ideal destination for couples visiting Thailand. Picture yourselves lounging on pristine beaches with your toes in the warm, golden sands, as you watch the Andaman Sea’s turquoise waves. Sunsets here are pure magic too, painting the sky with dusky hues of orange and pink.

If you’re an adventurous couple, I’d recommend strolls through lush jungles, hikes to breathtaking viewpoints, or splashing around in the sea. For a special trip, you could even go island-hopping, and enjoy a bit of snorkelling near Koh Phi Phi!
So, whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or planning your honeymoon, this guide on where to stay in Phuket for couples has everything you need to plan an unforgettable romantic holiday.
18 Amazing Luxury Hotels In Phuket For Couples
