Time Out Bangkok
Good to know, from the creators
“One of the prettiest beaches around - turquoise water and dramatic limestone cliffs. Take a public longtail from Ao Nang, about 15 minutes and dirt cheap.”

Railay Beach
“Perfect drink stop after the zipline; book one of the air-conditioned glass 'hives' in the jungle for drinks or lunch.”

Banyan Tree Phuket
Private pool villas, excellent food, one of Thailand's best spas, and two beaches plus a beach club a short shuttle away - most Israelis don't know it.

Huge market: food, clothes, jewelry, bags, plus live shows and a fire show. Street food 4–~$4 — gyoza 5 for ~$2, duck pad thai ~$4.

Blue Elephant Phuket
Take the Thai cooking class with Chef Nooror (you get a certificate); the restaurant is excellent even without the course.

Gorgeous bar right on the sea.
Marni Phuket
Rated one of the 50 best pizzas in Asia, in Phuket Old Town.
Pileh Lagoon
One of the most beautiful places she's seen — unreal turquoise water you can swim in. Skip the pricey kayak rental; the boat reaches the same spot.
Railay Beach
One of the prettiest beaches around - turquoise water and dramatic limestone cliffs. Take a public longtail from Ao Nang, about 15 minutes and dirt cheap.
The Nai Harn
On Nai Harn Beach at the island's southern tip; rooms have a balcony daybed with a sea view and a freestanding tub.

Stunning Sino-Portuguese style café with a pastry counter in the Old Town; they caught a live guzheng performance there.
Bangla Road
Neon bar strip packed at night with free street shows – a Michael Jackson impersonator and a singing Spider-Man; decorated for Christmas in December.
Banyan Tree Krabi
72 villas on a sandy private beach; classic for honeymoons but also great for families with a kids' club. Don't miss a day trip to Hong Island.
Butcher's Garden
Meat break from Thai food, walking distance from the Patong hotels: bone-in steak platter and burrata salad (ask to go easy on the balsamic).
Central Patong
On the first floor there's an open dim sum kitchen where they hand-pull noodles and fold dumplings fresh on the spot.
Club Med Phuket
Club Med is more than an all-inclusive stay - see her saved Highlight for the full look before booking.
Dinso Resort & Villas Phuket, Vignette Collection
Her Phuket stay - also a good breakfast stop.

Last stop of the islands tour — stunning white sand with rows of umbrellas; grab a coconut on the beach.
Patong Beach
Massage pavilions and fresh fruit shake stands right on the sand; many street food stalls along the beachfront at night.
Three Monkeys Restaurant Phuket
Perfect drink stop after the zipline; book one of the air-conditioned glass 'hives' in the jungle for drinks or lunch.
Tu Kab Khao
Thai restaurant in Phuket Old Town.
Ao Nang Beach
Fire show on the beach every evening at 19:00, free, with a great vibe and magical sunsets.
Banana Beach Koh Hey
Crescent of white sand and turquoise water after snorkeling; the beach bar serves cocktails in a bucket.
Banyan Tree Spa Phuket
Not Thai street prices - about~$110 for a massage - but private room, high standard and no misses; there's an invested golf complex right next to it.
Blue Tree Phuket
Water park with wide multi-lane slides and a turquoise lagoon; great family fun day.
Dragon View Bar
Come for sunset - crazy view.
InterContinental Phuket Resort
Stay here instead of Patong: 221 rooms, suites and villas, some with direct pool access or private pool, dreamy spa.
Into the Forest Cafe
Insane cafe set inside an enchanted forest.
Kamala Beach
Went after @dvir.barcelona's recommendation - clear calm turquoise water, good for swimming with kids, with a swing on the sand.
Kamala Beach
One of the nicest, most fun beaches on the island - don't miss a massage right on the sand.
Kodam Kitchen
One of the best Thai restaurants in the area - there's a queue at peak hours but it's worth the wait; order the massaman curry.
Massage Corner
After several mediocre places in Krabi this one was excellent every time - quality Thai massage at a great price.
Sofitel Krabi Phokeethra Golf & Spa Resort
5-star next to the beach with one of Thailand's biggest pools; the breakfast is the highlight, and the price suits any budget.
Tha Pom Klong Song Nam
Amazing trail between turquoise pools you can also swim in.
The Verandah Cafe
Serves brunch all day — try the fried chicken sandwich with fries or avocado toast with poached egg plus iced coffee.
Ban Bang Rong
Farm tour with fabric-painting workshop, pineapple and coconut picking, rubber tapping and local snacks; book via licensed island agents or iasiagroup.
Kata Beach
Perfect beach for surfing, about 10 km south of Patong; Inter Surf school is right on the sand.
Koh Hey
Island about 9 km south of Phuket, worth the trip if you're into diving and snorkeling.
Lai Mai Restaurant
Order the hummus, the eggplant salad with pomegranate molasses and seeds, pitas and chicken skewers.
Patong Beach
Excellent, convenient location with kids and great sunsets, but the water is less clean than it used to be and smells of diesel from the boats and cruise ships anchored offshore.
Phuket Elephant Care
Billed as a rehabilitation farm (she checked with groups, locals and her hotel), but in practice the elephants are tied up and fed endlessly from tourists' buckets.
Salsa Rossa Phuket (Italian-Mexican Cuisine)
Italian food in Patong: burrata with cherry tomatoes (ask without balsamic), penne arrabbiata, crème brûlée. Pizza was underwhelming and the bill was steep.
Banzaan Fresh Market
A local night market rather than a tourist one - come hungry for street food.
Blu Saffron
The stuffed vine leaves are juicy and delicious even if the plating isn't impressive. Inside Bandalo Boutique Hotel on Thaweewong Rd.
BYD Lofts
Central, cheap and chic aparthotel in Patong; a studio costs about ~$68 per night.

Hot pot restaurant.
Mangrove Restaurant
Combine it with a day at Railay Beach - the creator's recommended stop for eating there.
Sa Kaeo Cave
Huge caves with a water pool.
Smile Restaurant, Smile Bar and Bungalows
Go for the combo of grilled chicken, som tam papaya salad and sticky rice; nuggets and fries for the kids.
Suay Cherngtalay
One of the excellent restaurants near the Kamala area worth a dinner.
Wagyu Steakhouse Phuket
Recommended dinner spot near the Kamala Beach resorts.
Karon Beach
Beginner surf lessons on the sand; beautiful sunset walks.
9฿ Store
Candied fruit skewer nearby for ~$2 — cute but too much, less tasty than classic candied apples.
