Last month I went to Phuket Island, Thailand with my wife to spend my holiday. It was a wonderful trip.
We booked a single room in the Lamai Guesthouse for our accommodation through the internet. Although the hotel is not very close to the main beach, it’s very cheap and the attendants are very kind. It costed me only 600 Baht (25 dollars) per day, and I could get free internet access there. If you want, you could rent a motorbike which is very familiar in Phuket and I think the price is about 150 Baht per day.
There are about 7 or 8 beaches around the Phuket Island and they are not very far away with each other – you can get one from another in 20 minutes by motorbike. The most famous one is Patong Beach, but our favourite is Karon Beach because it’s too crowded and flourishing in Patong. We enjoyed the peaceful and clean beach in Karon.
Many tourists go to Phi-Phi Island for diving and snorkeling. It is an amazing island which has gorgeous scenery. The price is about 1,000 Baht (35 dollars) for one person/one day from Phuket to Phi-Phi, which includes free drinks and a buffet lunch. We spent a night on the island.
Oh, of course we ate seafood endlessly! Tong-Yam-Kong is also recommended, and don’t miss the tart-sweet fruit-milkshake!
