Selling The Naka Island to your clients
The Naka Island sells as a private island that is still close to Phuket: honeymooners take the pool villas, families use the kids' club and the Royal Horizon villa, and small wedding groups can take over the Lawn and Beach. Our destination wedding team works with the resort on ceremonies.
Plan the arrival as two legs: road from the airport, then the resort's speedboat. Our transfer team times the road leg to the boat. For day trips into Phang Nga Bay or back to Phuket see our Phuket guide, Phang Nga guide and the other Explera partner hotels.
Send your dates, room types and number of guests. The Explera trade desk replies with special rates and availability, usually within 24 hours.
