For a lot of couples out there, Phuket is the ultimate honeymoon destination. Or the perfect place for a simple romantic getaway.

Its treasure trove of romantic spots couples could only dream of. You want to further bond and strengthen your relationship with your significant other, it's highly likely that will happen if you go to any of these incredible places in Phuket!
Phi Phi Islands
Although most refer to it as Phi Phi Island, this place is actually a small archipelago near Phuket. Also referred to as 'Ko Phi Phi,' these islands are often the main reason why so many couples go to Phuket for their honeymoon. Imagine going to an uninhabited and largely untouched island on your own. No one but you, your partner, the white sands, the turquoise seas, and the natural wonders around. Wouldn't that make for a romantic getaway? To feel as if you're the only two people in the world is one of the best experiences Phuket's Phi Phi islands have to offer.
