Englishmum,
I have found your post about Marina Phuket Resort and
you highly recommended
this hotel.
We are going for our
honeymoon in October 2004 and we are looking for nice,
peacefull
hotel with sea view, near the beach and reefs (for snorekling). Is

it the right hotel for us? Is it possible to snorkle right from the
beach?
Best regards
Mariola

Yes - it's a wonderful hotel as
it is in such a great location, right on the bay but you if you wish
can choose to have the slightly cheaper 'garden' rooms a couple of
hundred metres away from the beach which are amongst the beautiful
plants and flowers. It really is an excellent hotel to choose for a
honeymoon as it is peaceful there, and you can easily walk into the
'village' in the direction of Club Med (much smaller rooms at Club
Med!) to visit other bars, restaurants, play mini-golf at the
adjacent Dino-Park or to buy T-shirts etc. You can hail the tuk-tuks
right outside the main entrance to go exploring around the island.


You can snorkel in the bay and even go parasailing too (which
some of our teenage kids did........we were living in Singapore and
this hotel was recommended by our neighbour, a British-Thai
stockbroker, who like us when on vacation doesn't want to go to the
chain resorts such as the Hiltons, Marriotts, Holiday Inns etc. and
want something with a more 'local' ambience.

Best wishes for
your forthcoming marriage and a wonderful honeymoon.........but yes,
I would highly recommend the Marina Phuket.

have always gone
the all inclusive route.
I got the thumbs down
for
the all inclusive on this trip, so Now I

have NO IDEA where to begin.
I bought the
Thailand lonely planet
book, but Im finding that
very
confusing. Any suggestions on Hotels,

sites, or anything else would
be greatly
appreciated. Heres the what
Ive got so far:


- Arrive
Nov. 8th or there
abouts in Bangkok.
- Must have 3 -4 days at a
beach
resort. 4 or 5 star (honeymoon

suite).
- Must go somewhere with
world
class snorkling (no diving). Ko Surin?
Ko Similan?
Ko Tarutao?
- Would like to see monkeys in a rain
forest.
- Canoeing.
-

Temples.
- 10 - 14 day trip.


??????????

Thanks


Andrew
Definitely highly recommend the
Phuket Marina resort; it's
absolutely beautiful with
the most amazing flowers (part of the
jungle/rainforest
so it's highly likely that you will see the monkeys)

and on the lovely sweeping bay at the headland of Kata/Karon
beaches. A
local guy owns the place and a lot of
wealthy Thais go there for their
holidays and the
service is very good indeed. It really is a lovely

place to go for ones honeymoon. The food is sublime at the two

restaurants. There is also the diving centre based here too
- you can
click on the icon at the bottom of the hotel
resort page for the diving
information:

http://www.marinaphuket.com/"]http://www.marinaphuket.com[/ur-
l]
(Also check out
the rates on other
search engines to see if you can get different rates.

We arranged with the hotel to collect us/return to the airport).
Also
you can easily take the ferry to Phi Phi islands
from Phuket too (we
just went for a day trip
there).
