Fans of the White Lotus HBO show (Season 3 is out on 16 Feb) may soon flock to Anantara Mai Khao Phuket Villas, one of the filming locations in Thailand. But if you want a more peaceful holiday away from the crowds, head to Anantara Layan Phuket Resort located in Cherngtalay area, about 40 minutes drive away from Mai Khao and 20 minutes from the airport.
