There are millions of budget airlines flying from Singapore and u can get a round trip ticket for just over 100 SGD (better plan atleast 3 months in advance).
The stay in Marriotts is the most exciting part. The lovely villa along the side of Mai Khao beach is the ideal place. The sunset view is just what i wanted. I initially intend to stay in resort and chill out but my parents wanted to look around and there fore toured selected few
Though many prefer to visit the jamaes bond island and phi phi island... I just stuck with the phi phi as i dont want to stress out much on hanging around. However, i enjoyed my first snorkelling experience and it was more than an experience to remember to swim around the remote island, clear water, observing the underwater world... hmmm one more 'to do'added :)
The phi phi island is the place where the movie 'The Beach'was shot and now i guess i need to see this movie. The Thai people are in general very nice and much respectful with the way in greeting people
The unique point about phuket is the world famous show called 'Fantasea' Visually stunning. The ticket price is around 1500 Bhatts (60 SGD approx.) and to me that is the best way to spend 1500 Bhatts in Phuket :)
Its indian tradition that any one on their Bday visit temple and for my son its another experience to visit thai temple on his bday :) it was the chelong temple and the look of the buddha statues and the thai praying procedure very much resembled indian way.
