Where to stay in Thailand

Thailand’s diverse landscapes offer a rich mix of experiences. Bangkok pulses with lively street markets, historic temples and cutting-edge nightlife. Chiang Mai charms with its mountainous backdrop, artisan crafts, and centuries-old temples. Phuket is a haven for sun-seekers and families, while Krabi draws adventurers for its striking limestone cliffs and serene beaches. Koh Samui is the go-to for those craving a luxurious resort stay, while Koh Phi Phi’s turquoise waters and dramatic cliffs are perfect for underwater exploration. Khao Lak is ideal for those seeking quiet, uncrowded beaches and easy access to nearby national parks.

Thailand’s best family-friendly activities

In Bangkok, children can enjoy hands-on experiences at the Children’s Discovery Museum and KidZania, or visit the Sea Life aquarium or Dusit Zoo to see animals both from land and sea. Phuket is home to Splash Jungle Water Park, with slides and pools for a full day of family-friendly fun. Families visiting Krabi can take longtail boat trips to nearby islands, with calm waters perfect for swimming and snorkelling. On Koh Samui, kids can explore underwater life with snorkelling tours, and the Ang Thong Marine Park provides a chance to discover hidden lagoons and quiet beaches ideal for family outings.

The beautiful beaches of captivating Koh Samui make it a top-tier destination for summer sun-seekers - Luxury Escapes

Which Thailand islands to visit

Thailand’s islands are easy to reach by ferry or speedboat. Koh Samui’s white-sand beaches and family-friendly resorts make it a popular starting point. A short ride away, Koh Phangan is famous for Full Moon parties, but also has quieter spots to explore. Koh Phi Phi’s clear waters and limestone cliffs offer wonderful snorkelling and diving opportunities, and Koh Tao is known for its diving schools and marine life. For a less crowded experience, head to Koh Lanta to see almost untouched beaches and mangrove forests, or visit Koh Yao Noi for a laid-back, rural island atmosphere.
