Phuket is an hour drive from Bangkok International Airport and Singapore is an ideal place to relax after a business trip. Let your hair in Patong and enjoy a massage on the island. Phuket is a bit more challenging than Patong, but of course, it is busy and hectic with people who want to shop. The beaches are gorgeous and there is a wide range of water sports, or small coves, where the beach can be more or less far away from everything, lazing in the high season.
There is a scene of great nightlife and it is for dinners with a wide range of cuisines are Thai, Japanese, Indian or Pakistani and Malay. You can go to a cabaret with Lady Boys and marvel at their beauty and talent, or go clubbing or a disco (remember that the hosts who will sit with you at some point either in cash or pay for drinks).
A few days on the island can only be what you back before the long journey, which winter can be, so enjoy your time and relax on the beach with some of the tastiest fruit. The island have to offer, juicy mangoes, you can simply roll between your palms, press a little and make a hole in the skin and suck the nectar or the exotic mangosteen rambutan and peel like a lychee learn inside white fruit. A cocktail of exotic fruits available to the many cafes, bars and restaurants, and juice are on the streets and Thai versions of fast food available.
You can go to a lively destination or a quiet place away from the hordes, which tend to collect in Phuket, Patong, Karon and Kata. A place not to be missed is the mystical Phang Nga Bay.
