The Pavilions, Phuket
The idea is that your villa is so private, and its luxuries so comprehensive, that you’ll never have to leave, instead passing your days lounging naked in the sun. After you collect your iPod on arrival, which has playlists with names like “chill-out” and “make-out,” you can marvel at the size of your bathroom and the design of your own private infinity pool before finally examining the room service menu. It’s at this point the thinking behind the resort starts to make sense.
If at some point cabin fever does strike, the Laguna shopping and entertainment center is a short complimentary car ride away, as are various beaches and golf courses. Do remember that guests should remain clothed when outside of the hotel, as the rest of Phuket doesn’t quite share the Pavilions’ enthusiasm for the clothing-optional traveler. And if all that activity (or clothing) sounds like too much, then a number of spa treatments can be enjoyed in your villa’s dedicated spa room. As you can see, the Phuket Pavilions will go to almost any length to ensure nothing spoils your quest for total relaxation.

This trip and our time at this resort was too short! We absolutely fell in love with The Pavilions the moment we turned into the long, bamboo-lined drive leading to reception and the bellhop greeted us with a quick strike of their gong. Nestled on the hilltop overlooking the ocean, most all the views are 360 of the surrounding area. It is a gorgeous place to stay and decompress. The villas are sublime, with plunge pools, canopy beds, and large soaking tubs. Our room also came with its own treatment room attached, in case we were hankering an in-room massage! And the food and beverage offerings were all amazing. Each had its own cuisine and individual ambience, not to mention its own inventive cocktail list. That is a lot of cocktails! My personal favorite was the 360 bar which sat on the hilltop of the resort and had 360 degree views of the ocean and surrounding island. Sunsets here are truly incredible.
