( Phuket, 14 September 2023) Looking for a last-minute get-away with the family, but want something out of the ordinary? The Slate Phuket is a five-star boutique hotel that invites the whole family into a world of imagination thanks to its whimsical design, sprawling grounds, and spacious accommodations.
Sitting on sleepy Nai Yang Beach, with its white sand and row of casual restaurants and food stalls, a holiday at The Slate will take you back to the Phuket of old, with a relaxed beachfront setting away from the more raucous Phuket scene. You can buy freshly caught fish in the morning as the boats come in, hire a longtail boat to explore nearby deserted beaches, or swim in the calm bay-like conditions.
Family activities including archery, cooking classes and more mean fun for the whole family. Both parents and kids will love being pulled across the river to Black Ginger for a memorable Thai meal, and when the kids need to let off steam and release some energy, the hotel’s landscaped gardens offer the perfect playground amongst nature.
The hotel offers trained nanny services and a range of activities in the Tin Box Kids Club, so the children are taken care of while the parents can indulge in a spa treatment at Coqoon Spa or sip cocktails at Pulley Pool & Bar. The hotel offers a full program of activities from art to Thai kickboxing and from foraging in nature to treasure hunts around the statue-strewn gardens, so no one is ever bored.
Best of all, the hotel is just ten minutes’ drive from the airport, so you don’t have far to travel with tired kids who just want to get to the pool. Despite its proximity to the airport, you will not hear any planes and will feel like you are world away.
There are 185 suites and villas, all with ample space for families including private pool villas or the D-Buk suites which feature a king bed plus double-sized curtained daybed, which provides private camp-like bedding for two children. Cots and kids’ amenities can be provided as needed.
The Slate’s Family Getaway package includes four nights’ accommodation, daily breakfast at Tin Mine, roundtrip airport transfers, complimentary two hours of babysitting for one child per stay, daily kids and family activities, a three-course dinner at Rivet Restaurant while children under seven eat free when dining with their parents, plus 10% discount at KRU Precision Wellness, 20% discount on Coqoon Spa and 30% discount on laundry services. * conditions apply
The Slate Phuket is the only hotel in Thailand to be named amongst TripAdvisor’s Travelers’ Choice Best of the Best Out of the Ordinary hotels, a title given to only the top 1% of the 8 million hotels on the platform, so you can be guaranteed of a family vacation to remember.
