Eid Escape in Phuket: My Weekend at Pullman Arcadia Naithon Beach

Tucked away on a tranquil stretch of Phuket’s western coast, Pullman Phuket Arcadia Naithon Beach felt like a secret I was lucky enough to stumble upon. For the Eid long weekend, I booked one of their private pool villas, and let me just say — paradise has an address.

🛌 The Villa Life

My villa was everything you dream of when booking a luxury beach escape:

• A massive bed wrapped in crisp white sheets

• A private infinity pool overlooking the sea

• Floor-to-ceiling glass windows with a view of the Andaman sunset

• Thoughtful touches like a mixology kit featuring “The Arcadia Bottling Co.” for in-room cocktail indulgence

The vibe? Calm, coastal, and perfectly quiet — the kind of place where time slows down and the only agenda is relaxation.

🍝 Dining at Vero – Trattoria & Wine Bar

One of the absolute highlights of the trip was Vero, the hotel’s Italian signature restaurant. This wasn’t just another resort dining spot — it’s a destination in itself.

Here’s why it deserves its own spotlight:

• An epic wine collection tucked behind a sleek glass door marked “Bowls & More” 🍷

• The Steak Knife Club experience — a beautifully plated tenderloin with silky mashed potatoes, grilled garlic, and a rich jus

• A classic Vespa parked out front for that extra dolce vita vibe

Perfect for date night or a solo glass of Chianti under the stars.

🏋️‍♀️ Fitness With a View

Yes, I worked out. And no, it didn’t feel like a chore.

The Power Fitness gym at Pullman faces a wall of jungle greenery — think treehouse meets wellness retreat. Whether it’s cardio or functional training, you’re sweating with a serene forest view. Bonus points for the Technogym equipment and ample open space for floor work and stretching.

🏖️ Beachfront Bliss & Breezy Dining

When I wasn’t lounging in my villa, I wandered down to the beach or hit one of the property’s open-air lounge spaces for fresh mango sticky rice or tacos under a palm-thatched roof. The beach club vibes were casual yet elevated — colorful pillows, frozen margaritas, and playlists made for long, lazy afternoons.

📸 Photo-Worthy Moments

From golden sunsets over your private pool, to lush koi ponds winding through the resort gardens, every corner of Pullman Arcadia is designed for that effortless Instagram aesthetic. No filter needed — just nature, architecture, and perfect lighting.
