A One-Day Getaway to Koh Mai Thon, Phuket
This past Sunday, I embarked on a one-day trip to Koh Mai Thon, an island off the coast of Phuket. While I had passed by the island twice before, this was my first time actually setting foot on it.
Seeking a quick island escape with a short boat ride, Koh Mai Thon seemed like the perfect choice. The tour package from Love Andaman, priced at 2900 baht per person, included roundtrip van transfers to our accommodation, a seafood feast for lunch, and unlimited refreshments throughout our stay on the island.
This trip marked a farewell to the summer break before school resumed. As the saying goes, "a child's smile is a parent's happiness," and I was eager to share this experience with my children.
We boarded Love Andaman's spacious speedboat, which can accommodate up to 30 passengers, and set sail for Koh Mai Thon. The journey from the pier took a mere 15-20 minutes.
Okay, here is the translation of the sentence:
"Hold on, we're on a boat, not riding a motorbike. Did you use the wrong emoji? Haha."
During the late rainy season and early winter, we had to rely on luck.
I must admit that this year, 2016, the rainfall was as heavy as our Thai brothers.
This trip was no different. We could only pray that the sky would open up a little. But before the night we arrived, it rained heavily, flooding Patong for the first time in many years.
It made our hearts sink, fearing that the trip would be ruined. But it wasn't a problem for us. Even though the sky wasn't very open on the day of our trip, it didn't rain during our visit to Koh Mai Thon.
We arrived! After a short boat ride, the beautiful island was right in front of us.
Notice the green and blue colors of the water around the island, welcoming us with joy.
The sleek speedboat from Love Andaman whisked us away to the shores of Koh Mai Thon.
The vessel was brand new, spacious, and impeccably clean. The friendly crew kept us entertained throughout the journey.
With anticipation, we disembarked and set foot on the pristine sands of Koh Mai Thon.
Mai Thon Island boasts not only crystal-clear waters and pristine beaches, but also lush greenery that blankets the entire island.
Once a private island closed off for many years, Mai Thon has recently reopened, welcoming the establishment of resorts.
Our trip, however, was not focused on luxurious resorts or accommodations. Instead, we prioritized relaxation and rejuvenation.
And most importantly, we were there for one special companion... our beloved Mangkorn.
We've arrived! Time to take off our clothes... I mean, throw our clothes in the water and play in the sea!
Kids and water are a perfect match. Whenever they see water, they have to jump in. Little Mangkorn is no different.
With the beautiful blue sea and white sandy beach, there's no way he could resist. He's having a blast!
Because her smile is our true happiness.

Happy and satisfied with this school break trip to Koh Mai Thon, they will have fun stories to tell their friends for a long time.
Koh Mai Thon also has quiet, slow-life spots for those who want to leave their hearts by the sea.
With private, peaceful corners to sit and listen to the gentle sound of the sea in this beautiful place at Mai Thon.
This island offers several shaded areas for relaxation, including spots beneath large trees and beautiful pavilions by the water.
The scenery evokes images of pre-wedding photoshoots that have taken place on Koh Maiton.
On a clear day with a deep blue sea, the beauty would be unparalleled.
During our visit, the weather was perfect - pleasantly cool and not hot.
Despite the cool weather, sunscreen is still essential, as the UV rays can be strong.
The Love Andaman food stall has been renovated and expanded.
The new stall is larger and offers convenient access to nearby restrooms and showers.
The service is friendly and attentive.
At the Love Andaman service pavilion, you'll find a wide variety of food, menus, and drinks, similar to a hotel buffet line, brought right to the island. Choose from a selection of savory and sweet dishes, as well as snacks, all in an all-you-can-eat buffet style.
Don't tell me how many times our little dragon got up to get more food. 555
The highlight of the Koh Mai Thon trip is the grilled seafood.
Grilled shrimp and squid with spicy dipping sauce.
Eating by the sea with a cool breeze is the best feeling.
Not only that, but Love Andaman also served shaved ice and various drinks throughout the trip, making everyone full and happy.
We were impressed by the service and care of Love Andaman. We had been to Koh Rok before and felt that everyone had been well-trained. They all had smiles on their faces.
If you come alone, don't worry about being lonely or not having someone to take pictures for you. The staff at Love Andaman are all great photographers. I can confirm that.
After a satisfying meal, we returned to the pavilion for another round of slow-paced relaxation, enjoying the serene atmosphere.

Crystal clear seawater and a pleasant atmosphere - I love it! There aren't many people around either.
It almost feels like a private island, a secluded corner. This is exactly what I need for a relaxing getaway.
Snorkeling equipment is provided, allowing you to observe small fish and coral reefs. Staff will be available to assist you.
They will demonstrate and guide you on snorkeling at two locations within the vicinity of Koh Mai Thon.

These devices will ensure you capture breathtaking images that will exceed your expectations.
The diving team took us to a remarkable spot beneath the pier of Koh Maiton Island, where the coral and marine life are particularly abundant.
Don't miss this incredible opportunity to witness the underwater wonders of this location.
After enjoying a refreshing swim, delicious food, and ample relaxation on Koh Mai Thon, it's time to head back.
Please gather at the pier around 3:30 PM - 4:00 PM for our return trip to the accommodation.
