Mai Khao Village & Mai Khao holiday Villas Phuket

Mai Khao Holiday Villas - Mai Khao is situated on the west coast of Phuket at the very northern end of the island in Thalang district. Mai Khao lies within the boundaries of Sirinat National Park and has one of Phuket’s largest and most under-developed beaches, stretching over eleven kilometres. It is a particularly convenient area for easy access to Phuket International Airport, just a few kilometres to the south and Sarasin Bridge to the north.

Crossing the bridge, that separates Phuket from mainland Thailand, will take you to Phang Nga Province. The spectacular bay in Phang Nga is home to dozens of fascinating limestone islands jutting up from the clear turquoise waters of the Andaman Sea, the most visited and unusual being ‘James Bond’ island.

Mai Khao reaps the benefit of having very scant development along its shores, with the exception of the J W Marriot Resort & Spa and a few small hotels it remains largely untouched – allowing you to walk for kilometres without seeing a single soul.

The ‘Turtle Village Shops and Cuisine’ centre in Mai Khao, offers a wide range of dining (Thai and Chinese restaurants), convenience stores, coffee shops and the popular Bill Bentley’s Irish Pub. Mostly geared towards tourists, with plenty of souvenir shops, the complex is however an entertaining place to spend an afternoon away from the beach.

One of Mai Khao’s newest and most popular attractions is the Splash Jungle Waterpark – a sprawling mass of thrilling, breathtaking rides guaranteed to keep the kids entertained for the day.
