Le Meridien Phuket Beach Resort, Thailand


Located in the tropical paradise of Phuket’s West coast in a secluded cove, Le Meridien Phuket Beach Resort is set amidst 40 acres of lush foliage, sprawling golden sands, and the emerald Andaman Sea. A mining centre during the 16th century, Phuket employed many Hakka Chinese miners, and China’s rich cultural influence can still be seen on the island today as well as the colourful influences of Portuguese explorers.

The hotel features six meeting rooms, two lagoon-size swimming pools, four tennis courts, a pair of air-conditioned squash courts, a world-class spa, a variety of land and sea sports facilities, a discovery centre for kids, and a historic cruiser that offers unique cruise adventures. 10 restaurants and bars allow for a gastronomic journey around the globe. The 417 superior rooms and 53 luxury suites are enriched with local Thai design, complementing the resort's tropical setting. These, along with superb five-star amenities, provide creative holidays that are delivered with comfort.

The resort is just minutes away from some of the celebrated sites of Phuket, including the lively shopping and restaurant district of Patong, the 29 ornate temples that dot the island, hiking trails through ancient limestone caverns, and scuba diving through the Andaman Sea’s translucent indigo waters.

Rooms and Suites

Le Meridien Phuket Beach Resort offers a truly unique experience in every one of our stylish 470 guest rooms and suites. The architecture captures all the charm and elegance of traditional Thai design, while blending naturally and harmoniously into its lush tropical landscape. Warm earth tones in addition to the luxurious sitting and work areas create an inviting ambiance. Handcrafted Teakwood furniture, rich Thai silk fabrics and traditional artworks, and five-star amenities provide an unforgettable experience. Wake up every day with a romantic sunrise backdrop and watch a warm sunset with your loved ones from your personal balcony that offers views of the lush gardens, the Andaman Sea, or the large lagoon-shaped swimming pool.

Facilities

At Le Meridien Phuket Beach Resort we have a large range of both land and water-based leisure and sports activities for you to choose from. Warm up with a trip around the hotel on our exercise circuit. Once the pulse is racing, keep up the momentum with a quick game of tennis, squash, volleyball, or table tennis. For those who like a bit more excitement, our rock-climbing wall will challenge you. For golfers, we have just the spot to practice your swing, under the helpful eye of our golf pro at the driving range. If you seek a little less strenuous activities, we also offer darts and mini-golf for your enjoyment, together with a number of board games available in the Similan Lounge. Just off the beach lies a world of activities and exploration. Now is the time to do those things that you promised yourself. Whether you're experienced or a beginner, we have the facilities to meet your needs. Learn to sail, windsurf, dive, or just go snorkelling off our beach. After a busy day of basking in the sun or challenging yourself to one of our many leisure activities, we recommend a rejuvenating spa treatment at Le Spa. Many exotic spa treatments await spa lovers in one of the 10 private stylish teak wood massage rooms, with natural foliage and aromas all created for your restoration of mind and body. Come and experience our world of pure relaxation where luxury and pleasure blend to create a sanctuary of peace and tranquility.
