Exotic Luxury Honeymoon Destinations in Thailand

Tuesday September 11, 2012

For a tropical honeymoon destination, many people are surprised to find out that Thailand doesn’t have many all-inclusive resorts and mistakenly think that it’s not a great honeymoon destination because of that. In fact, the reason Thailand doesn’t have many all-inclusives is that it’s such an easy place to travel and plan. There’s just not much need for pre-packaged, pre-paid vacations when you can put one together so easily on your own.

Thailand is a very safe place and one you’re likely to want to explore. Having all your food, drinks and activities on one compound wouldn’t be as fun in a country like Thailand. Plus, you likely won’t save any money with an all-inclusive in Thailand compared to paying for everything ala carte.

If you are set on an all-inclusive resort for your honeymoon, there are just a handful of resorts in Thailand that will take care of everything for you.

Club Med Phuket

Set on popular, family-friendly Kata Beach, this is Club Med’s only property in Thailand. The vast, grassy grounds overlook Kata Bay and it’s just a short walk across the road to get to the beach. Rooms are comfortable and modern, with some discreet Thai design elements. Like other Club Med properties, Club Med Phuket offers full board with drinks, though because food is so plentiful and inexpensive (and safe to eat) in Phuket, it may feel like a waste to be hanging out at the resort all the time.

Evason Six Senses

Some of the Evason Six Senses resorts in Thailand offer all-inclusive packages which include transportation from Bangkok, lodging and meals. Six Senses Sanctuary on Phuket offers packages which include their acclaimed spa cuisine, wellness classes and spa treatments and Six Senses Soneva Kiri on Koh Kut offers packages which include transfer by private plane from Bangkok’s international airport, food, drink, laundry and most activities.

A refreshing interpretation of a five-star island resort, the Evason Phuket & Six Senses Spa was created for today's sophisticated travelers. This casually elegant enclave on Thailand's Phuket Island redefines the resort experience with guest accommodations that offer innovative interiors and contemporary Thai furnishings. Surrounded by beautifully landscaped tropical gardens, you'll be inclined to romance in a Duplex Pool Suite that features a private plunge pool and garden overlooking the Andaman Sea.

Start your day with a long tail boat ride to the white sands and crystalline waters of Bon Island, reserved for the exclusive use of resort guests. Plan a boating excursion that departs from the resort's private pier to breathtaking Phang Na Bay and James Bond Island. Shuttle into Phuket Town for an afternoon of scene-watching and souvenir shopping. Ask the staff to arrange for night fishing or a snorkeling tour. And after a revitalizing couples massage at the holistic Six Senses Spa, sit back and relax on a romantic sunset cruise.
