Concierge "The isolation and expansiveness of the hotel may frustrate more social travelers, but you'd be hard-pressed to find a resort more perfectly configured for a couple's escape."
Travel + Leisure "Phuket's Amanpuri is the very first Amanresorts property and, perhaps, the loveliest." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Amanpuri aptly reflects the tranquility and peace after which it is named. This luxurious pavilion and villa complex, nestled within coconut groves, overlooks a white sand beach."
Star Service "It is the flagship of Aman Resorts' extraordinary fleet of fashionable hotels that dot some of the planet's most exotic locales." Full review
Rough Guide "Secluded from the riffraff on Ao Pansea, this is a favourite haunt of royalty and Hollywood stars, who stay in the butler-staffed pavilions, some with their own pools."
Fodor's "You'd be hard-pressed to find a more sparklingly dignified hotel in Thailand." Full review
Gayot "Within a tranquil coconut plantation this pretty resort pampers guests with tropical villas and a soothing spa."
