Located on the northern tip of one of Thailand's most beautiful islands, the boutique Bo Phut Resort & Spa is particularly lovely for its winning fusion of contemporary design and breathtaking natiral beauty. The resort, which has many freestanding villas, is surrounded by seven acres of indigenous plantations and is situated on famous Bo Phut beach. The grounds are awash in lush follage, lotus ponds, gardens and orchids. Guests love this resort for its peace and quiet, incredibly attentive service and luxurious quarters (many rooms feature outdoor jacuzzis). The staff is thoughtful, especially the team at the gorgeous beach who seem to anticipate every need: they are quick to remember guests' names and present iced towels, drinks and snacks throughout the day.
