Hotels with day pass in Phuket
In Phuket, you can enjoy a luxury vacation even without booking a room — especially if the hotel is truly high-end and you really want to experience the world of luxury. In this case, an option called a day pass comes to the rescue — daytime access to a hotel without an overnight stay. Simply put, you come as a guest for one day and use the hotel’s facilities: swimming pools, beach access, restaurants, and sometimes even spa services. It’s a great option for a family outing, a romantic day, or just a change of scenery.
Many hotels and luxury resorts on the island offer this format. We’ve gathered the most popular and interesting day pass options in Phuket.
Sri Panwa 5*
(Panwa)

If you’d like to spend a day as if you were staying at one of Phuket’s most luxurious hotels, a day pass at Sri Panwa is exactly what you’re looking for.

As part of the day pass, guests have access to the legendary 48-meter Forest Pool located in the Habita zone. This is one of those pools you never want to leave: lush jungle surroundings, the ocean on the horizon, and postcard-perfect sunsets. Day pass guests are provided with a personal daybed and a towel, so you can fully relax by the pool without worrying about a thing.
The day pass also includes a 1,888-baht credit that can be used at the resort’s restaurants: Baba Chino for lovers of refined Chinese cuisine, or Baba Hot Box, a BBQ concept ideal for a scenic lunch.

Summary: What’s important to know about day passes
The day pass format may seem simple, but it comes with a few nuances. Knowing them in advance will help ensure a comfortable and surprise-free experience.
Fixed hours. A day pass is always valid during specific hours. It’s not “all-day access,” but entry within a set time window — most often from morning until late afternoon (for example, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. or until 6:00 p.m.). Arriving earlier or staying longer is usually not allowed or may require an additional fee.
Blackout dates during high season. During peak demand periods (holidays, long weekends, high season), hotels may temporarily stop selling day passes and even remove the offer from their websites. This is standard practice in Phuket, especially for popular and family-friendly resorts. It’s best to check availability in advance when planning your visit.
Rules. Each hotel has its own policies: in some places, children below a certain age enter for free; in others, adult supervision is mandatory. Almost everywhere, bringing outside food and drinks is prohibited, especially around pools and in water parks — something to keep in mind if you’re visiting with children.
Always confirm the terms in advance. Even if you’ve visited a hotel before, day pass conditions can change — prices, hours, and included services may vary. The most reliable option is to check the hotel’s website, Instagram page, or confirm directly with the reception on the day of your visit.
A day pass is an easy way to add a touch of resort luxury to your vacation or island life without long-term commitments. This format is ideal for families with children, couples, long-stay travelers, and anyone who wants to test a hotel before booking a full stay.
