How many hotels are there in Phuket?
Insider's Response
There are plenty of hotels in Phuket, especially in popular tourist areas like Patong, Kata, and Karon. These areas are often chosen by so-called “package tourists.”
You can choose any type of accommodation — from small apartments to luxurious five-star resorts with private pools, spas, personal chefs, and beachfront access.
It’s hard to say exactly how many hotels there are in Phuket, but the number is estimated to be around 1,500. Some resorts follow the all-inclusive concept: on-site restaurant, gym, kids’ room, airport transfer, massage, pool, and tours — so you might not even need to leave the property. The island also has many family-friendly hotels with the right infrastructure for young children. And there are more unusual options too: unique hillside stays and themed hotels. We’ve gathered great options for all types of travelers in our Hotels section.
One of the great things about Phuket is the variety. You can spend a few days in a hotel with panoramic sea views, and then switch to a tiny jungle bungalow. It all depends on your preferences and budget. Of course, the more exclusive the hotel, the higher the price.
