Exotic Dining and Luxury Villas in Phuket

Oct. 29, 2008 - PRLog -- Vacations are the time to rectify this, and Phuket offers a smorgasbord of opportunities for tantalizing your tastebuds, and relaxing and rejuvenating in style in a luxury Phuket villa. Here we look at the best.  

Phuket is now one of the world's most popular tourist destinations - and for good reason! The amazing, sizzling flavors of Thai food, combined with incredible accommodation at very budget friendly prices, and a mile-long list of exciting activities mean that everyone finds a favourite in Phuket. Here we are checking out the best places to satisfy the basics of life - a roof over your head (in a stylish luxury Phuket villa!), and a belly full of the most tempting
Thai food.

Before heading out to the dining strip, with its tropical mounds of banana leaves, the sultry scents of lime and coconut and lightly seasoned rice, you'll want to wash off the dust of travel! Phuket offers some amazing accommodation at astonishing prices by Western standards - like the luxury Phuket villa Baan Chai Talay. Large enough to sleep an entire family, or a group of friends to share the cost, this Phuket villa for rent has beautiful views of the Andaman Sea and Kata Noi beach. It has two levels, with two main bedrooms above with a beach view from the Phuket villa, and a third below  with easy access to the pool. For a truly relaxing experience, take advantage of the full time maid and cook that are available on request!

Close by is Baan Pa Hin, a great choice of Phuket villa if you are travelling to Thailand with a large group of people. It sleeps 12 and offers privacy on the exclusive Katamanda Estate, and has all of the modern conveniences like internet and fax connections. Three maids and a chef staff the Phuket villa for rent- so there is no need to fight over who has left their towel on the bathroom floor - it simply won't be there next time you look! There is also a car belonging to this luxury Phuket villa that guests have use of.

Once you are settled in your Thailand accommodation, you'll want to wash the taste of airplane food out of your mouth with some of Phuket's tempting treats. Tom Kaa Gai and Massaman curry are some of the favorites in Thai food, along with staples like Pad Thai and Tom Yam Goong. Sala Bua does some delectable versions of Thai dishes like these, as well as sashimi of red snapper and rock lobster salad. The chef has won countless awards, and all the food is served in a spacious and breezy atmosphere; inside, or al fresco.

You may want the chef at your Phuket villa for rent to try some of the specialties of the Da Ali restaurant set right on the beach, There is nothing like the scent of ocean salt and fresh air to flavour your food, and if you are looking for a relaxed Halal option, Da Ali will be it. Try cooking the tom yam gung or barbecued lobster back at your Phuket villa - or you could just come back for seconds tomorrow!
