Ok, here's my plan.
First 3 days in BKK Inn Dynasty Inn Grande. 1st night without GF then rest of the time with.
Rest of the time in Phuket. 6 nights in banthai, Patong, 3 night Kata thani and 6 nights Marina Phuket, karon.
First stop in Patng will be MTB

Plan to do some day trips while in patong - hire a car etc. Worth going to Phi Phi or Krabi in August.
Reading the thread re Phuket being spoilt, am I spending too much time there. Should I got somewhere else for a few nights (not Samul tho)?
Also, kata thani - too much of a family place to take my Thai GF there?
From the above, you can probably see that I'm taking GF to some nice hotels etc. Will hopefully find out if she is as i think she is.
Thx
