New in Phuket

M Social Phuket is a new hotel located in a trendy corner of Patong that offers easy access to Thailand's gorgeous coastline and is also rolling out some enticing culinary offerings over the next couple of months. We take a look at three of them, below, and run our eye over the wide range of room options.

#1 Rise and dine

The best way to start a day while on holiday is by embracing island time and letting breakfast take centre stage! M Social Phuket's Beast & Butterflies offers a selection of enticing fare and fresh boat-to table meals that can be enjoyed in the hotel restaurant or as in-room dining. And since this is a vacation, why not choose a tiki cocktail or a glass of bubbles to go with the great food? Either way, the fabulous flavours on the menu will make it a memorable morning - and it's the kind of venue where you can sit back and really embrace the culinary experience.

#2 Inspired by izakaya 

To keep the day rolling with delicious eats, the hotel's all-in-one Japanese restaurant and bar, Bincho, is serving up a take on the informal and authentic dining experience of izakaya. It's open from 11.30am till late, so swing by to sample sushi and sake, or other casual bites, beers and artisan cocktails.
