Islands with Hotels near Phuket
There are hundreds of islands scattered across Phang Nga Bay between Phuket and Krabi, but only a handful offer places to stay. Most remain uninhabited limestone rocks rising from the sea. The islands with accommodation range from simple beach bungalows to exclusive five-star resorts. Koh Yao Noi and Koh Yao Yai attract travellers seeking quieter alternatives to Phuket’s busy beaches, whilst nearby Koh Racha Yai and Phi Phi Island provide options from budget-friendly rooms to luxury pool villas. The smaller Naka Island, just three kilometres east of Phuket, hosts only high-end properties with private pools and ocean views.
