Hi there, need some advice for beach resort in Thailand. We are looking at Phuket and koh Samui.

What we want is plenty of restaurants, picturesque and stunning beach that's not too overcrowded. Plenty of trips - suggestions please. So not an iscolated resort but not chaotic as we like to eat out an walk round.

We are going in June/July this year.

My partner really wants to go to phi phi island an I've been told we can only go from Phuket.

Please help as we are booking this week.

Any suggestions for a hotel will be great as well. I really want a lovely thai style hotel with like Buddhas round the pool and lots of greenery and my partner wants a big gym with free weights again not isolated.

Thanks xx
