Phuket is home to a few Mövenpick Hotels & Resorts, one of them being set on a 52-rai land right across the stunning Karon Beach, and the subject of a recent visit from The Guide Phuket ahead of their reopening on October 1, 2020.

The quality of the treatments and pampering received was way beyond our expectations, as was the large spread of pastries and other gourmet items we enjoyed during breakfast. Families will be in heaven as the kids can play all day at the resort’s kids club, The Play Zone, which offers tons of activities to keep them entertained.
