10 Most Instagrammable Spots in Phuket

Baba Nest Rooftop Bar

Baba Nest, located on the top of the Sri Panwa Phuket Resort, is one of the most exclusive rooftop bars in the Phuket area. However, we believe “exclusive” is an understatement. We suggest booking this one, possibly two or even three weeks in advance. Once you are there, you will understand why. The rooftop terrace is a gorgeous tiled area surrounded by an infinity pool. The infinity pool blends into the ample amount of sky and ocean views, creating an illusion that the roof drops away and there is no fence to obstruct your views. The infinity pool also reflects the gorgeous sunsets you’ll witness while there – beautiful pinks, blues, burnt oranges, reds and blues. I haven’t even begun to mention the delicious cocktails on their menu – This place is definitely one for the grid.

Akoya Star Lounge

Keeping on theme, the Akoya Star lounge is another rooftop bar much like the Baba Nest Rooftop. They use an infinity pool to avoid obstructing views with railings and offer 360-degree views. However, it is less minimalist – instead of pillows, they have days beds, couches and tables for patrons. While there, you look out over the beautiful Ao Yon Beach while eating beautifully curated tapas and listening to live music or live DJs.

Hogs Head

Are you a Harry Potter fan? Or simply looking for the perfect cozy and quirky background for an Instagram photo? Look no further than Hogs Head. Hogs Head is a new bar and cafe located in Old Phuket Town that is Harry Potter themed and is the perfect addition to your feed! You’ll be graced with an enchanting backdrop and magical props such as broomsticks, crystal balls, wands or even a pint of Butter Beer. Not to mention the gorgeous shop front that makes anything in front of it pop.

Feelsion Cafe 

In keeping with the themed cafes – Feelsion can be described as eclectic, antique, steampunk and rustic with a retro twist. Located in Phuket Town, Feelsion doesn’t only offer great decor but also food and drinks that are incredibly colourful and perfect for the grid. 

Ma Doo Bua Cafe

It doesn’t get more Instagram than a restaurant dedicated to selfies! The Ma Doo Bua Cafe’s sole purpose is to provide its guests with an extravagant background to its patrons. If that isn’t enough to interest you, maybe a drone selfie will! For 500 baht, you can have your selfie taken over the giant lily pads while you lie in the wooden boat or stand on one of the floating leaves.

Twin Palms Resort

Being one of the most stylish and luxurious hotels in Phuket, the pool at the Twin Palms Resort makes for one of the most gorgeous Instagram photos you’ll ever take. The incredibly chic boutique resort offers many opportunities to get “the shot”. You might want to check out the swimming pool day beds, Bimi and Catch Beach Club, the architecturally designed suites and the on-site Sun Spa.

Centara Grand Beach Resort Phuket

Much like the Twin Palms Resort, the Cantara Grand Beach resort is another spot that offers so many opportunities for the gram. There are many beautiful amenities, such as 3 outdoor swimming pools, a water park, a lazy river, gorgeous architecture, exquisite dining and being on the beachfront of Karon.

Mai Khao Beach

For something you don’t see every day – why not take a selfie with a plane? Visit Mai Khao Beach for a photo of yourself with a plane landing right above your head! Due to the Phuket International Airport being at the beginning of the runway, planes come in from the beach at a low angle! 

Keemala Luxury Resort

Keemala Luxury Resort is an enchanting group of private pool villas set in the rainforest of Kamala, Phuket. What makes this resort instagrammable is the unique and distinctive architectural designs. Keemala is home to magical villas and cottages that are incredibly enchanting. They make for many whimsical photos.  

Soi Romanee in Old Phuket Town

Soi Romanee is a gorgeous area in Old Phuket Town and is truly a hidden gem. The buildings are newly renovated and are full of colour. There is a lot of history within the area, these days it’s common to see young couples around as it is a very romantic setting.
