Is Phuket a good honeymoon destination?

Yes! Phuket is one of the most popular destinations in Thailand, and there’s no wonder why so many newlyweds choose to celebrate their honeymoon in Phuket every year.  You and your loved one can take in the incredible scenery, experience the vibrant nightlife, and enjoy a huge range of other attractions to make your honeymoon extra special. With stunning beaches, a huge range of charming hotels and wonderful weather, a Phuket honeymoon will be an experience you will never forget.

As summer and the monsoon season can be very hot and humid, the best time for your Phuket honeymoon is considered to be from December to March when the weather is settled and dry. However, the weather in Thailand is tropical, and it is typically always warm despite the rain. If you’re looking for great deals on the most romantic hotels in Phuket, then consider booking your honeymoon during May to October which is the low season.

Phuket has many wonderful beaches to choose from, especially on its western coast where you will enjoy a spectacular sunset almost every day.
