Outrigger Laguna Phuket Beach Resort, Thailand

I read a lot.. really a lot of reviews before I book an accommodation, and I was very happy to find this resort in Phuket, Thailand. 

So hoping I could save you guys some time in researching, here's Outrigger Laguna Phuket Beach Resort.

It is on Bangtao Beach, and a 20-minute drive from Patong Beach and Phuket International Airport.

Lobby and Reception Area

Icon Terraces and Lounge

Where we hung out at night, listened to live music, and gazed at the moon and stars.

Deluxe Room, Sea View

I really loved lounging on the day bed!

Bathroom

That is a "window door." The entrance door is on the left side.

Toilet and Bath Tub / Shower

Balcony facing Bangtao Beach

The Club

An executive club lounge you can access if you book the club rooms.

Bangtao Beach

This is not my kind of beach, but for most of the beach resorts in Phuket, you have to take the day tours to Phi Phi Islands, Similan Islands, Krabi Islands, etc, to find the beautiful beaches.

Sunbathing Beds facing Bangtao Beach

Swimming Pools

Edgewater (on the right)

A beachside / poolside restaurant where they have the "beach barbecue night" every Sunday.

That dinner was really delicious! Do NOT miss it! :)

Again, do NOT miss the beach barbecue night!

Beautiful sunset from our balcony

Twilight at Bangtao Beach

And my favourite part, Candy, the baby elephant!

She goes to the platform near Metzo's Bistro every 10:00 to 11:00 in the morning, and to the swimming pool area every 3:00 to 4:00 in the afternoon.

She was kissing me.. blowing air on my neck, and making "mwah" sounds. 

And I was just so tickled! :)

Where else can you do this?! ;)
