London, April 2026: As UK travellers continue to prioritise meaningful, experience-led holidays, Thailand remains one of the most in-demand long-haul destinations for summer travel. Combining value, warm hospitality, wellness, and immersive cultural experiences, the country’s islands continue to appeal strongly to families, couples, and multi-generational groups alike.
This summer, travellers are invited to discover Thailand’s iconic island destinations with ONYX Hospitality Group, as the group celebrates 60 years of delivering memorable guest experiences. To mark this milestone, four standout beachfront properties are highlighted: Amari Koh Samui, Amari Phuket, OZO Phuket, and OZO Chaweng Samui.
A leading hospitality management company in Asia-Pacific, ONYX Hospitality Group operates hotels, resorts, serviced apartments and luxury residences across its core brands — Amari, OZO, Shama and Oriental Residence. Rooted in Thai hospitality, with a global perspective and a clear focus on regional growth, the group continues to meet the growing demand for premium yet accessible leisure travel—particularly across wellness-led breaks, beach holidays, and multi-generational escapes.
From powder-soft sands and turquoise waters to vibrant local culture and world-class dining, Thailand’s islands offer the ideal backdrop for a seamless summer getaway where relaxation and discovery go hand in hand.
Koh Samui – laid-back island luxury meets vibrant coastal living

Located on the peaceful northern end of Chaweng Beach, Amari Koh Samui offers a tranquil beachfront escape surrounded by tropical gardens. The resort combines contemporary Thai-inspired design with spacious rooms and easy access to the island’s dining, culture and island excursions.

Phuket – dramatic coastline, vibrant energy and island adventure

Amari Phuket
Set on a private stretch of coastline overlooking the Andaman Sea, Amari Phuket offers a peaceful hillside retreat just minutes from the energy of Patong Beach. The resort blends contemporary design with panoramic sea views, with highlights including ocean-facing rooms, Italian dining at La Gritta, and the unique TreePods dining experience set among the tropical canopy. Guests can also unwind at Breeze Spa or explore nearby beaches and local markets. Amari Phuket participates in the “Summer Unlocked” promotion, offering 20% off the Best Available Rate plus an additional 16% discount for ONYX Rewards members. Rates start from £76 per night.
