Phuket Town

Living at the epicenter of events – that's what Phuket Town is about. Explore Thai culture, visit establishments, and simply walk along historic streets. If you want to change the atmosphere to something more secluded or add beach relaxation – choose places in the Phuket Districts section.

The island shows itself from different sides and gives people what they want to receive. For impressions, head to the Amusement Parks, Yacht Rental, Diving, Zoo Parks, and Elephants sections. Temples and Attractions will help you study the culture and history of the island. If you want everything organized for you – refer to the Excursions section.

Be sure to visit Massage & SPA – this is the minimum that needs to be done in Phuket. Another must-have is a visit to the Night Markets, which reflect the culture and color of Thailand.

If you want to have your own housing on the island, go to the Real Estate Purchase section, where all the nuances of this process are collected. And if you're only interested in temporary accommodation options, check out the Hotels, Apartments Rental, and Villas Rental sections.

To address concerning questions, we created the Useful Info section. Which applications to use on the island, where to go for medical assistance, or where to find a convenient coworking space – this and other information awaits you there.
