How to Plan a Holiday in Phuket?

Planning a visit to Phuket is challenging because the choices are surprisingly vast, considering how small the island is. So we divided the process into four easy steps: When to come, Where to stay, Which hotel to choose, and What to do once here.

1. Worried about the Weather in Phuket?

When planning a trip to Phuket, you probably need to decide the best season and time to go to Phuket: high season, peak season, hot season or rainy season. Then, you will have to narrow it down to a specific month, and each month has qualities and values, as you will read in

2. Where to Stay in Phuket?

Once you have decided when to come, the next question is, of course, where to stay in Phuket. There are 40 beaches, thousands of hotels, and vacation rentals around the island. Selecting the right beach will define what kind of holiday you will enjoy: romantic and quiet, active with parties, or something in between.

Pick the Right Beach

We explored more than 40 amazing beaches to help you decide which beach you wish to stay on and which beach you want to explore during your holiday. We also remind you that the situation is very different during high season and low season.

  1. Most of the sandy beaches are on the west coast.
  2. The most popular beaches are in the southwest, but also the busiest: Patong, Kata, and Karon can be bustling during the high season.
  3. The central west part of the island is getting trendy: Kamala and Bang Tao Beaches now offer many fancy restaurants, beach clubs, and a wide choice of affordable 4- and 5-star resorts.
  4. The northwest beaches, such as Naithon, Nai Yang, and Mai Khao, are peaceful and have enough restaurants and great hotels for a great holiday.
  5. There are still some hidden secret beaches!
