Banyan Tree Phuket 

"Breakfast at Banyan Tree Phuket is the best I've had anywhere in the world. The seafood buffet is also brilliant. Room service is highly recommended - the little picnic hamper service is gorgeous - and good value. Restaurants are expensive (especially wine) but you can visit the other hotels in the Lagoon complex if you want. The staff is all so friendly. Make sure you visit the beach (but take some cash for drinks there) and have lunch at the pool bar. And definitely get a massage at the spa."

"The double pool villas at Banyan Tree Phuket have bedrooms surrounded by a pool of water and three walls of floor to ceiling glass windows, making you feel as if you are on a floating platform when you wake up in the morning. The infinity edge private swimming pool has a Jacuzzi at one end, and overlooks a lake. The length of the pool is approximately equal to the breadth of regular pools, which means you can get a good swim in, rather than just splashing about. We ended up spending a lot of time in the pool and hardly any at the beach. The villas are huge and have a kitchen, a central lounge/ dining area and a living room, all done in Thai style."
