Guest logistics
- Airport: Phuket International (HKT) — ~25 min by road to Cape Yamu (confirm); direct flights from Mumbai (BOM) & Delhi (DEL)
- Visas: Indian passport holders currently get visa-exemption / visa-on-arrival for short tourist stays — Elite confirms current rules and documents per guest
- Transfers: Airport meet-and-greet + private coaches / cars to the resort + inter-function movement on the headland, arranged by Elite
- On-site stay: ~79 rooms, suites & pool villas; whole-resort buy-out keeps the party on-property (verify)
- Catering: Licensed outside Indian / Jain caterers coordinated with the resort kitchen — menus, counts and timing agreed in advance
- Season & weather: Nov–Apr dry window (peak Dec–Mar); May–Oct SW monsoon brings rain — indoor / marquee backup kept ready year-round
- Permits & sound: Lawn / ceremony set-up, sound-curfew, fireworks and sky-lantern permissions confirmed with the resort and local authorities
- Welcome desk: On-property welcome desk, rooming list, hampers and a guest concierge for the wedding week
Best fit
- ✓ Style-led couples who want a chic, design-led clifftop resort over Phang Nga Bay, not a generic beach hotel
- ✓ Intimate-to-mid luxury weddings of roughly 80–200 guests taking the whole resort on exclusive buy-out
- ✓ Families who value complete privacy — your wedding party owns the property for two or three days
- ✓ A mandap and pheras on an oceanfront Lawn with sunset sangeets and a long dinner at La Sirena
- ✓ NRI and HNI Indian families flying in from India, the Gulf, the UK or Australia for a passport-stamp destination wedding
Not ideal if
- – Very large 400–800+ guest Indian weddings — the resort caps around 200, so it cannot hold a big-baraat crowd
- – Couples set on a long open-Andaman swimming beach — Cape Yamu faces a calm, scenic east-coast bay with tidal flats, not surf sand
- – May–October dates without flexibility — the SW monsoon brings rain and rougher seas; Nov–Apr is the dependable window
- – Tight budgets at peak — a COMO buy-out over Dec–Mar, plus flights and imported Indian catering, sits firmly in luxury territory
Room blocks & partner rates
COMO Point Yamu carries around 79 rooms, suites and pool villas, so a whole-resort buy-out keeps the wedding party on-property for total privacy — the real draw of this venue. It is not a large-capacity ballroom resort: the celebration caps around 200 guests. For larger lists Elite arranges vetted nearby overflow hotels with shuttles, structures the buy-out to group families across room categories, and keeps rates transparent — final room count, buy-out terms and rates confirmed directly with the resort for your dates.
Questions to ask the venue
- Are my dates available, and what are the whole-resort buy-out terms and minimum room nights?
- What is the best available rate, and the monsoon-season policy for May–Oct dates?
- Will you license my outside Indian / Jain caterer, and what are the kitchen, corkage and cake conditions?
- What are the real per-space capacities — The Lawn, La Sirena and Nahmyaa — for my guest count?
- Are a mandap, sacred fire (havan), baraat with dhol and fireworks / sky lanterns permitted, and with what notice?
- What is the sound-curfew timing for an outdoor after-party, and which space allows the latest music?
- What indoor or marquee backup is guaranteed for the ceremony and reception if the weather turns?
