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.
THE KARL LAGERFELD Macau
- The hotel is one tower within the large Grand Lisboa Palace integrated resort on Cotai.
- SJM Supreme Card applies to participating dining and spa spend, but it is not a conventional hotel-points currency.
- Complimentary resort shuttles serve major border points and Macau Peninsula; the airport is usually within a ten-minute drive.
