The Hotel Pools of Phuket: Triple Dips at the JW Marriott Resort

Where: 231 Moo 3 Mai Khao,Talang, Phuket, Thailand, 83110

Next up in our Hotel Pools of Phuket series are the three—count 'em three—pools that sit nice and pretty between the buildings and the beach at the JW Marriott Resort.

To be perfectly clear, we didn't sleep at the JW Marriott, but next door in a hotel to be revealed tomorrow. The thing is, the hotels share a beachfront: Mai Khao Beach on the northwestern tip of Phuket Island. Because the beaches are public, it's quite easy to walk between the properties, and there's even a boardwalk and direction signs to guide vacationers around the area.

If you found yourself with a long stay, you could hop hotel pools no problem, but that wouldn't work very well if you fancy ordering cocktails at the swim-up bar and charging it back to your room.

Back to the pools. The JW has three of them for the general guests, because—as it goes in Phuket—there's also a selection of suites (and one villa) with private pools. For most, however, the North, Main and South pools will be more than enough aqua entertainment.

HotelChatter Flickr Pool :: Twinpalms Hotel Phuket

Where: 106/46 Moo 3, Surin Beach Road | Cherngtalay,, Phuket, Thailand, 83110

Thanks to HotelChatter Flickr Pool Member Lisa Stegall we have an inside look at the Twinpalms Resort in Phuket, Thailand. Lisa writes:

We stayed at the Twinpalms Resort on Phuket, Thailand in September 2006. The hotel's main lobby is a beautiful open air pavilion surrounded by water and also has a gorgeous pool that free flows beyond the main pool itself and winds around by the various buildings containing guest rooms. Some lower level rooms have direct access to the water. The rooms and baths were very nice. I would definitely stay there again. This view shows part of the water feature surrounding the main pavillion. The bar is on the left.

The hotel is also a member of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World. Room rates average around $300 a night.
