Weekend Away to Phuket, Thailand

Kaes and I surprised Mom with a trip to Phuket, Thailand as a birthday present. I was so excited to see her face and she was thrilled that we were going. Phuket is one of our favorite places with great beaches, cheap food, and overall relaxation. 

Thursday after a half day of work, we flew the 1 hour plane flight via Air Asia to Phuket. We arrived around 6:45 and then had a 40 minute car ride to the main town and beaches. 


We stayed in a luxurious villa called Baan Pan Yaah Kalim that was on the pristine Patong Bay, not far from Patong Beach and the bustling town lined with restaurants, bars, and shops. It had a gorgeous view of the bay and beaches from the top master suite and we could hear the waves crashing against the rocks as we went to sleep at night. The other king sized room had a view of our private jacuzzi as well as the water.

We walked into town, ate the fresh local Thai coconuts and relaxed on the beach. It was everything we wanted to do and more!!!

Overall, we had a wonderful, relaxing weekend. I was so thankful that Mom was able to join us for a getaway vacation out of the hustle and bustle of KL. We cannot wait to go back soon for another visit!
