Overview of Phuket Town Vacation Rentals

Travelers to Phuket Vacation Rentals

Phuket is Thailand’s largest island and a very popular beach destination. It is known for its beautiful beaches, warm tropical waters and excellent value as a travel destination. Travelers to Phuket can benefit from staying in up-market resorts without breaking the bank. It is the ideal destination to relax and simply enjoy the tropical surroundings. There are many water sport and adventure activities available for those that want to be more active. Phuket is also known for its vibrant nightlife so people that enjoy socializing at beach bars and dancing the night away will enjoy a fantastic vacation in Phuket.

Excellent Value at Phuket Villas

In Phuket, you can enjoy luxurious style at the many vacation villas on the island. Some are set just a stone’s throw from the beachfront and provide easy access to the water and other beach activities. Most have large outdoor decks where you can soak up the warm sunshine without having to get full of sand like you would on the beach. Some vacation apartments are set up on the hillsides. From this elevation, you can enjoy magnificent views out over the sea. The villas are generally spacious and many are built from natural materials. Wooden floors, bamboo screens and large glass windows are characteristic of many of the homes. Kitchens are generally well equipped with a host of modern appliances. In some villas, you can also arrange for a local chef to come and prepare meals for you.

Tips for When You Travel to Phuket

Depending on the type of vacation you enjoy, choose carefully which side of the island you’d like to stay on. For those that want to be in the heart of the action and social scene, head to Patong Beach. This is the largest and most developed beachfront. Karon and Karon Noi beaches are areas that are also well developed and offer a similar vibe to Patong beach. If you are looking for something quieter, you will want to be at Kalim Beach or Kalama Beach which are both north of Patong. Other areas where there are beautiful, more secluded beaches are Nai Tong and Nai Yang in the Sirinat National Park or Laem Sing which is a small bay located between Kamala Beach and Surin Beach. The areas around Surin Beach and Pansea Beach are becoming known as newer and trendier.

Be courteous to locals and other tourists. In Thai culture, as with most other Eastern cultures, saving face is more important than anything. Getting angry in public is frowned upon and generally won’t get you anywhere as the locals will simply smile at you graciously. Your best option is simply to do the same no matter how frustrated you are.

Thailand is a great destination for shopping. Textiles, clothing, jewelry and handcrafts are available just about everywhere you go and at very reasonable prices. In the markets, you can often bargain but less so in shops and malls. Be wary of shops that offer clothing that will be made in 24 hours as the quality of the craftsmanship is usually very poor. Instead, go to a tailor and insist on multiple fittings.
