Good to Know
45 Park Lane
- The hotel participates in Dorchester Collection, which has no public portfolio-wide consumer points currency.
- Diamond Club is a travel-advisor programme, not a consumer loyalty tier. Benefits require an eligible advisor booking.
- Restaurant schedules, spa access, and seasonal outdoor facilities should be confirmed for the intended dates.
Amanpuri
- As the original Aman, this is the property most "Aman Junkies" cite as their favourite — worth booking even if you've stayed at newer, flashier Aman resorts.
- Pansea Beach is genuinely quiet compared to the rest of Phuket — the resort's position and private access keep it that way.
- About 30 minutes from Phuket International Airport.
