Phuket.com has just released its three Top 10 'Best Hotel' lists
for 2008.
With so many excellent hotels in Phuket the competition for the
Number One place was fierce. Passions ran high as opinions were
exchanged. 2007 was a record year for tourist arrivals in Phuket
and with 2008 set to surpass it, these are the hottest of the hottest
properties around.

1st
Place :
Le
Meridien Phuket Beach Resort
Relax Bay, near Patong
Beach |
| Our winner lies on
an amazing beach, Relax Bay, just a little south of Patong
which is a great location - close enough to but also far
enough away from the action. Think white sand and turquoise
water. This resort also has the largest pools to be found
in Phuket, a waterbaby's delight. |
|
|
 |
1st Place
:
Trisara
Phuket
Nai Thorn Beach
|
| Trisara deservedly wins our plaudits
for best romantic resort, all the villas here feature
private infinity edged pools with stuning sunset views
of the Andaman Sea. Nowhere else has such a perfect balance
of facilities, seclusion, service and style to romance
your partner. |

La Salsa, an air-conditioned cocktail, Tapas and cigar bar at the
Impiana
Phuket Cabana Resort and Spa in Patong, reopened in December
2007 after a comprehensive renovation. Previously open-air, it is
now air-conditioned, to help guests cool down after a hot Salsa
dance with the five-piece house band. The newly-installed windows
also block noise and fumes from Thaweewong Rd outside.
Gabriele Roscini, the resort’s F&B Manager, told Phuket.com
“The renovation is intended to give La Salsa a more Cuban-Latin
American appeal.
“The drinks list and food menus have been overhauled. Guests
in La Salsa will now find a list of more than 150 cocktails to choose
from, along with freshly-made sangria, and a large selection of
fine rums and tequilas. Also, our selection of tapas will satisfy
even the hungriest guest,” he said.
