With its tropical landscapes, beaches and warm climate, Phuket offers plenty of opportunities to combine golf with a wider holiday in Thailand. The island is home to several established golf courses, alongside coastal resorts, nature areas and a varied choice of activities.
Among the golf hotels in Phuket, Meliá Phuket Mai Khao is located in the quieter north of the island, close to recognised golf clubs. Its setting suits couples and golf enthusiasts who want to alternate time on the course with beach days, wellness experiences and local gastronomy.
For those looking for a golf hotel in Phuket without a course within the resort itself, the hotel offers a convenient location for discovering the island while arranging rounds at nearby clubs.
Meliá hotel in Phuket
Meliá Hotels International has one hotel in Phuket in this selection, combining a beachside setting with easy access to golf courses in the northern part of the island.
| Hotel | Category | Profile | Highlight |
| Meliá Phuket Mai Khao | 5* | Couples, spa, beach, gastronomy, weddings and golf | A peaceful setting near Mai Khao Beach, close to recognised golf courses in northern Phuket. |
Meliá Phuket Mai Khao is suited to travellers looking for a relaxing tropical stay where golf can be combined with other experiences. Its coastal location makes it particularly appealing to couples and visitors who want to balance time on the course with the beach, wellness and days exploring northern Phuket.
The nearby golf courses are separate from the hotel, so golfers can organise their rounds according to their preferred schedule and choice of club.
Phuket, a recognised golf area
Phuket has a well-established golf scene, with several courses across the island and in the northern part of the destination. For guests staying at Meliá Phuket Mai Khao, two recognised options are Blue Canyon Country Club and Mission Hills Phuket Golf Resort & Spa.
Both are part of Phuket's wider golf offering and give visitors the opportunity to include the sport in a beach holiday without staying at a resort with its own course.
For travellers searching for a hotel near golf courses in Phuket, Meliá Phuket Mai Khao offers accommodation in Mai Khao with access to courses in the northern part of the island.
Golf bookings, tee times, availability and access are arranged directly with the relevant clubs.
This gives golfers the flexibility to plan their rounds separately while keeping the rest of their holiday focused on the coast, relaxation and exploring Phuket.
Phuket and its surroundings
Golf is just one part of the experience in northern Phuket. Meliá Phuket Mai Khao is close to Mai Khao Beach, a long stretch of coastline with a quieter atmosphere than some of the island's busier resort areas.
The natural character of northern Phuket can also be discovered at Sirinat National Park, a protected coastal area known for its beaches and tropical landscapes. The combination of sea, nature and open spaces offers a change of pace between days on the golf course.
Travellers can also enjoy Thai cuisine, relax by the Andaman Sea or explore other parts of the island. This variety makes the area well suited to couples and groups travelling with both golfers and non-golfers.
Getting there and when to go
Phuket International Airport is the main gateway for visitors arriving by air and offers road access to the Mai Khao area. Travel time to Meliá Phuket Mai Khao varies depending on traffic and the chosen transport option.
The period from November to April is generally a popular time for outdoor activities in Phuket, with conditions that are often well suited to combining golf, beach days and sightseeing. Temperatures remain warm throughout the year, while rainfall becomes more frequent during the wetter months.
Golf can also be enjoyed outside the drier season, although local weather conditions and course availability are worth checking when planning the trip.
