Phuket is a breathtaking island located in the south of Thailand, and if you need any convincing that this should be your next holiday destination, all you need to do is look to the sheer number of Australians who flock to Phuket's resorts year-in, year-out. One thing's for sure, we Aussies know a good thing when we see it, and Phuket sure is good.

We understand that not everyone has unlimited funds to spend on holiday, which is why we help find a resort experience for every budget.

When it comes to Phuket resorts, expect amazing facilities including tranquil spas, well-equipped gyms, refreshing pools, fine dining and great views. Head to the pool early in the day to reserve a coveted sun-lounge, and when you think you'd like a change of scene, take a stroll to one of the beaches like Patong, Bangtao, Kata or Karon.

If you've got the family in tow, you'll be ecstatic to hear that many resorts offer kids' clubs and facilities so that you can still squeeze in some time for yourself while the little ones are well-looked after. The perfect compromise!

Look forward to amazing service and hospitality too, as the Thai locals are renowned for their friendly and helpful attitudes. It'll leave you with a smile on your own face - the happy and relaxed approach to life is sure to rub off on you.
