Andamantra Resort and Villa Phuket

The rooms at Andamantra Resort and Villa Phuket range from 42 m² rooms to pool villas of 180 m² and 255 m², and some have an ocean view or a partial sea view. Most rooms have a private bathroom with toiletries, a hair dryer and towels, and many also have a bathtub.

Bed layouts depend on the room you choose, and several rooms offer a choice of king or single bed set-ups. Sleeping capacity runs from two to five guests, and the in-room equipment varies: some rooms have a flat-screen TV, while others have satellite and cable channels or a telephone.

The resort has an outdoor swimming pool, a spa, a sauna and steam room, a fitness centre, a hot tub and a massage service. Free WiFi is available in all rooms.

Dining covers a restaurant, a coffee shop, a snack bar, a poolside bar, room service and food delivery, and breakfast is offered in several styles, including in the room and as takeaway.

Families can use the kids club, the playground, the children's swimming pool and babysitting, and a family room is also available. Business facilities include meeting rooms, laundry and dry cleaning, and there is a 24-hour front desk and an airport transfer. Luggage storage and safety deposit boxes are also offered.

Patong is the busiest beach town on Phuket island, with a long beach, a lively evening scene and street-food stalls and massage shops along the beach road. Andamantra Resort and Villa Phuket sits in the Patong area, so the sand is close by, and Kalim Beach, 250 m away, is the nearest stretch. The beach itself is the main draw by day, with water sports and boat trips available. Because the hotel is in Patong itself, the beaches, bars and shops of the town are all in the same area as the hotel.

Bangla Road, the street where Patong's nightlife is concentrated, is 1.9 km away, and a night market is also nearby. For a day out, the Chaithararam Temple (Wat Chalong), one of Phuket's most important temples, is 8.3 km away, and Big Buddha Phuket, a large white statue on a hilltop, is 9.4 km away.

A good day could start at Wat Chalong, continue to Big Buddha, and end back in Patong with an evening on Bangla Road or along the beach road. Phuket FantaSea, a cultural theme park with an evening show, is 5.2 km away for an evening out, and Karon and Kata beaches, further south, can be reached by car.
