About their honeymoon

Why did you choose this destination?
We choose Thailand because of the beautiful beaches, we live on the Gold Coast and love the beach so much that we got married on the beach. It was so much more beautiful than we ever expected in Thailand ... amazing beaches!

Why did you choose this accommodation?
We wanted to stay in a 5 star accommodation in Phuket so we couldn't go past the Hilton, it was worth every cent. Excellent service, beautiful food and close to the beach. We went from the Hilton to a bungalow at Phi Phi Island.

What was your 'Honeymoon Highlight'?
At Phi Phi Island at The Christmas Eve Gala, the first Christmas away from our families but we had a great time with just the two of us. Also the elephant trekking, Island Tours and beautiful massages in Thailand.

Would you recommend this destination to other couples?
Yes
Why?
Definately, it is a great place to relax but there is also lots to do, so you never get bored.

Would you recommend this accommodation to other couples?
Yes
Why?
I highly recommend The Hilton, I couldn't fault it. If I did it again I probably wouldn't choose to stay in a bungalow at Phi Phi Island for a full week, 4 or 5 days max.
