Phuket
Phuket is blessed with magnificent bays and coves, powdery, palm-fringed beaches, countless islands, turn-of-the-century Sino-Portuguese architecture, sincere and hospitable people and superb accommodation and cuisine. Its delightful ambience ensures visitors return for exotic and relaxing holidays.
Weather
Phuket’s weather is always warm and humid and unlike Pattaya, it has two distinct seasons – dry and wet. The dry season runs from November through to April and wet season begins in May and lasts until October.

Burasari’s philosophy, ‘Feel at Home’ invites guests to experience the warmth of staying with family or friends. Revel and recuperate in stylish surrounds with sublime food, caring service and the calming elements of nature, knowing that you’re within proximity to Patong Beach’s action, should you choose to leave the hotel’s secure compound.
Bangkok
Bangkok welcomes more visitors than any other city in the world and it doesn’t take long to realise why. This is a city of contrasts with action at every turn; marvel at the gleaming temples, catch a tuk tuk along the bustling Chinatown or take a longtail boat through floating markets. Food is another Bangkok highlight, from local dishes served at humble street stalls to haute cuisine at romantic rooftop restaurants.
Weather
Bangkok’s weather is dominated by a tropical monsoon climate which means there are three main seasons: hot season from March to June, rainy season from July to October and cool season between November and February. As Bangkok holds claim to being the hottest city in the world, expect daytime temperatures to be in excess of 30 degrees centigrade throughout the year (with the possible exception of late December and early January).
