COMO Point Yamu, Phuket<br />
Tucked away on the tip of the less touristy east<br />
coast of the peninsula of Cape Yamu; overlooking<br />
the panoramas of the green crystalline Phang Nga<br />
Bay, lies COMO Point Yamu – a breathtaking island<br />
resort owned by Christina Ong’s COMO Hotels and<br />
Resorts. Awashed in white with splashes of turquoise<br />
and cobalt-like rustic vista on a Greek island, the 79<br />
rooms, suites and 27 private villas in COMO Point<br />
Yamu are located on an island dotted with limestone<br />
cliffs propelled to international fame by the 1974<br />
James Bond Movie – The Man with the Golden Gun.
