EXAMPLE of PARADISE

Soundtracked by the whispers of coconut palms and the sighs of the Andaman Sea, Aman’s first resort, AMANPURI presides over its own peninsula, promising guests space, serenity, an idyllic white-sand beach, exceptional restaurants and a Holistic Wellness Centre.

The Wellness Amanpuri has long been a sanctuary for those seeking a positive shift. Harnessing the ancient healing arts of Thailand as well as leading global therapeutic practices, the Holistic Wellness Centre offers tailored treatments, massages, immersions and personalised fitness programmes to enhance the body and enrich the spirit.

The Adventure Teaching basic self defence and emphasising the importance of a healthy mind and body, Muay Thai is superb for building strength and agility while toning and conditioning muscles. Step into Amanpuri’s professional Muay Thai boxing ring for an authentic training experience.

The Exploration Phuket’s colourful markets are a fascinating way to sample traditional Thai food, watch street performers, and browse local arts and handicrafts. Set in a charming pocket of Phuket Old Town, Walking Street Market is well worth a visit on any day of the week, but we recommend that you time yours to coincide with the vibrant weekly night market.
