In February I spent a fantastic week in Phuket Patong Beach at Banthai Beach Hotel. The location of the hotel is ideal for people who likes lively shopping and entertainment streets in the neighbourhood but also want to relax in a four star hotel.
Phuket is a good startpoint to make excursions to Phi-phi islands or to James Bond rock.
Here you can find some interesting photos what we captured during the holiday:
