Travel Tips

Book a sea-view suite for the best sunrises over the Andaman Sea, and request an early check-in if you’re arriving on an early morning flight from Phuket International Airport. Take advantage of the resort’s free airport transfer to save on transport costs. For the best rates on on-site SPA treatments and guided local activities, book in advance through the front desk. Mai Khao’s rainy season runs from May to October—while afternoon showers are short, pack a light rain jacket and book indoor activities like cooking classes or spa visits for wet afternoons. Finally, don’t miss the resort’s occasional themed dinner nights, which showcase traditional Thai cuisine and live folk music for a memorable evening.
