Good to Know
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.
Maroma, A Belmond Hotel
About 30 minutes from Cancun Airport; about 20 minutes to Playa del Carmen; about 1 hour to Tulum.
Beach sits by the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, the world's second-largest coral system.
Event venues roughly 40-250; hotel buyouts possible.
Temazcal and Guerlain rituals differentiate versus generic Riviera spas.
Summary
Maroma, A Belmond Hotel has more dining venues, while Maroma, A Belmond Hotel lists more room categories, while Maroma, A Belmond Hotel lists more spa facilities.
