There is so much to do on Phuket Island. But if you want a relaxing holiday, you don't even have to step out of the luxurious hilltop resort, which offers more than what five-star resorts often have. One example is Ayurveda consultation and treatment as well as yoga sessions.

If you are in the mood to venture out of the resort, you can check out the cultural center in Phuket Town, where there is great Malay, Chinese and Portuguese history and architecture.

Or take a boat trip to Phi Phi Islands, where you can snorkel, enjoy the balmy waters and relax on the powder sands. And don't forget to feast on some of the freshest seafood available there. Avista also provides shuttle and limousine services to Patong Beach or Jung Ceylon, the largest shopping mall on the island.
