Iniala Beach House sits on the Phang Nga coast, just north of Phuket, with a private beach and an outdoor pool a few steps from the rooms. Accommodation is air-conditioned and rated 5-star, with free wireless internet across the property.
Rooms come with an iPod docking station, a coffee maker and a mini bar, along with a private bathroom, an in-room dining area and a flat-screen TV. There’s a restaurant and a bar on-site for evenings in, and Phuket International Airport is a 45-minute drive away.
Guests get 24-hour room service, free Wi-Fi throughout, 24-hour security and daily housekeeping, plus a shrine on the grounds. Selected rooms add a television LCD/plasma screen, an extra bathroom or toilet, an air purifier and an in-room phone.
Recreational facilities run to boats, canoes, hiking trails, wind surfing and a yoga room - reason enough to build in an extra day beyond the beach itself. For the trip down, our beach vacation packing list covers what’s easy to forget.
