The new 5 star Marriott Hotel, due to open in April 2011 will offer around 200 rooms, restaurants, gym and spa, plus a water park area with a swimming pool which, like an aquarium, will have a glass wall to one side.
The hotel resort and spa complex is situated to the east of the development, on the right hand side of the photo above.
It only takes just under 2 hours from the airport and just over 2 hours from central Bangkok to reach this destination by road, and for those looking for a quicker transfer both Phuphatara and the Marriott Hotel Resort and Spa have their own helipad areas.
