Bangtao Anchan Boutiqe Resort

All the rooms at Bangtao Anchan Boutiqe Resort have a pool view and air conditioning. The rooms are pool villas, and the 1 Bedroom Deluxe Pool Villa measures 45 m², with a private bathroom and a satellite TV.

Both villas sleep up to two guests, and children aged 0 to 11 can stay free of charge when using existing bedding. Extra beds depend on the room you choose, and an extra bed carries an additional charge.

Guests can use luggage storage, safety deposit boxes, lockers, laundry and dry cleaning, daily housekeeping, babysitting, car hire and a shuttle service. The resort also offers a concierge, tours, an airport transfer and facilities for disabled guests.

Free parking on site is available, and valet parking is offered too. Free Wi-Fi covers all rooms, with wired internet and WiFi in public areas, and guests can communicate in English, Mandarin and Thai.

Bang Thao sits on Phuket's west coast, where Bang Tao Beach runs as a long sandy stretch with resorts and villas set back from the sand. The beach is about 250 m from Bangtao Anchan Boutiqe Resort, and the swimming there is a slower pace than on the island's busiest beaches. Bang Thao is quieter than Patong, and the resort's garden and pool are a natural place to spend the afternoon.

Pansea Beach and Surin Beach are both sandy stretches on the west coast, and Laguna Golf Phuket, a golf course, lies close to the area. Bang-Tao Night Market, a short distance away, has street-food stalls and small shops in the evening. Patong Beach, the busiest resort area on the island with plenty of nightlife, is 9.2 km away, and the Big Buddha, a large hilltop statue, is 18.2 km away. Phuket FantaSea, a large entertainment complex, is 3.7 km away.

A relaxed day could begin on Bang Tao Beach and end at the night market, with the resort's pool in between. Phuket International Airport is 13.6 km away, and longer trips, such as the trip to the Big Buddha, are easier by taxi or by car hire. Bang Tao Beach is the natural first stop for a swim, and the Big Buddha works well as a half-day outing from the resort.
