The infinity pool has the ability to transform your Phuket holiday accommodation from the mundane into the positively outstanding.
With the infinity pool’s mysterious vanishing edge that gives the illusion of floating on the horizon, anyone who plunges into the refreshing water and swims to the wet edge is met with unobstructed views into the bright blue beyond.
Infinity pools hold a seductive magic over holidaymakers, offering endless photo opportunities for the younger-minded social media buffs or hours of secluded serenity for those willing to ditch the tech and chill out for a while.
With an attractive range of opulent private villas in Phuket, Villa Getaways has a stunning selection of prestige properties to whet your appetite for water.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1464906492856{padding-top: 40px !important;}”][vc_column][thb_gap][thb_image full_width=”true” alignment=”center” lightbox=”true” image=”8540″ img_size=”large”][thb_gap height=”40″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1480504772921{padding-top: 10px !important;}”]Water, Wonderful Water!
Water has held a sacred place in human culture for centuries. Along with helping to stimulate “mindfulness”, water can help shift your orientation from a “me” state to a “we” state to become more connected with those around you. Blend this with the horizon’s natural ability to calm the mind and you have the winning combination that is present in an infinity pool.
The Big Benefits of H2O
The ancient Indian medicinal wisdom of Ayurveda maintains that water is significant for creating physical harmony and to balance the body, while it is now thought to help achieve calmness and clarity of the mind.
According to marine biologist and activist Dr Wallace J Nichols, the author of Blue Mind: The Surprising Science That Shows How Being Near, In, On, or Under Water Can Make You Happier, Healthier, More Connected, and Better at What You Do, the human brain is hardwired to react positively to water.
In your own search for happiness and total relaxation, Dr Nichols book is perhaps the perfect poolside companion at your 5-star Phuket retreat.
Dr Nichols told The Huffington Post in a recent interview that people “have a ‘blue mind’ — and [water is] perfectly tailored to make us happy in all sorts of ways that go way beyond relaxing in the surf, listening to the murmur of a stream, or floating quietly in a pool.”
Coupled with the benefits of water, infinity pools help detox the brain by eliminating overstimulation, whereby visual input is simplified when you’re looking into ‘infinity’.
“When you stand at the edge of water and look out on the horizon,” says Dr Nichols, “it’s visually simplified relative to the room you’re sitting in right now, or a city you’re walking through, where you’re taking in millions of pieces of information every second.”

Picture yourself floating in the crystal blue waters of Phuket’s best infinity pools, while overlooking the incredible Andaman Sea.
Then escape the constant clamour of the city by boarding a plane for Phuket. This Thai island paradise awaits you 830km north of the equator, whereby the climate itself makes it the ideal destination to plonk yourself poolside and not have to move for days.
Whether you’re languorously lounging while enjoying sunset cocktails or contemplating another dip in your postcard-perfect infinity pool at any time of the day or night, Phuket does not disappoint with balmy tropical temperatures all year round – making your infinity swimming pool your new best friend.
