Good to Know
Amanpuri
- The legendary founding Aman flagship features 40 pavilions and 40 villas on Pansea Beach, designed by Ed Tuttle in 1988.
- Includes a 27m midnight-blue swimming pool, multi-story Holistic Wellness Centre, private yacht fleet, and 4 restaurants.
- Located on Phuket’s west coast, a 30-minute drive from Phuket International Airport (HKT).
Hôtel Hermitage Monte-Carlo
- Inventory counts conflict across house material: 259 keys, 262 rooms and suites, and 277 rooms and suites all appear in house material, so no single total should be treated as settled.
- The live accommodation roster has 26 categories, including eight Diamond Suite categories; retired Diamond Suite 740 is not current because no live card or sitemap entry remains.
- Check-in is 15:00 and checkout is before noon; a morning room or late checkout depends on paid terms, approval and availability.
- Thermes Marins access is direct and described as complimentary for hotel guests, but the by-laws exclude Formula 1 and Historic Grand Prix weekends and allow maintenance or exceptional closure.
