Where to Stay in Thailand
Phuket is a very popular holiday island destination and although it is an island, it is a very large island and there are quite a few different places to stay in Phuket.

Few islands can boast of such an abundance of sandy beaches and clear waters as Phuket. If you mention the name 'Phuket' to pretty much anyone they'll conjure up vistas of an azure sea lapping up on white-sand beaches under colbalt-blue skies. The best location to stay very much depends on individual taste. Some people like to be right next to the hub of the nightlife and shopping while others prefer more peaceful surroundings well away from the crowds. Choose from one of our hand-picked hotels in Phuket and you will have an ideal base to explore this this wonderful island. taying near Bangla Road will not be to everyone’s taste but for those who want to be near the action of Patong a hotel within walking distance of this area allows access to possibly everything they will need to enjoy their holiday.



The best thing about Phuket's west coast beaches is that they have a huge choice of accommodation that pretty much can cover most peoples' tastes, needs and financial limits so have a look through our choice below and decide which location floats your holiday boat. In each area we list some hotels that have been carefully hand-picked based on recent customer ratings but you can follow this link if you prefer to see a list of all Phuket hotels at special rates. Most Phuket hotels are based around the coast, so beach access is quick and easy, and the highest concentration is on the East Coast where most attractions are. Phuket Town is often said to be the cheapest place to stay, rather than any of the beaches. The town is quite nice actually, and there are also some nicer places to stay, but it has always been where you are likely to find the odd backpacker passing through.



Party fun is not what some Phuket visitors are looking for but, judging from the large, cheerful crowds that fill Bangla Road every night, its clear that many do. Phuket does have that reputation of being very expensive - only resorts and tourist restaurants. This is wildly inaccurate. Its natural resources- rocky peninsular, limestone cliffs, white powdery beaches, tranquil broad bays and tropical in-land forests contribute to making it the South's wealthiest, busiest, most visited and most popular island and province.
