Nope. So I guess I need to see what I've been missing. 
The only time I've ever been outside of Bangkok in Thailand is to go up north, and to drive to Siem Reap. I think we're going to fly to Phuket (cheap, frequent flights from SIN), rent a car, and try some of the less busy beaches in the northern part of the island. I was going to look for recommendations on Flyertalk.

I've stayed at the Hilton on Phuket in the Kata/Karon Beach area three times now and love it. It's far from Patong but there's enough close by that I can walk there. I did look at the JW Marriott in Khao Lak once and thought that it was a bit remote for my taste.
