Reasons for the -OH group in phenol for being more strongly attached as compared to alcohols:

1. Due to the partial double bond character of the Ph-OH bond due to resonance stabilising effect.

2. Also the Carbon atom attached to -OH group is sp2 hybridised and hence the Ph-OH is less reactive and more strongly attached to phenol than as in alcohol.
