Hotels [edit]
 Phuket has huge choice of hotels starting from 300 bahts per night and up to $1000. However, the overall price level is quite high by Thai standards.  
 
How to get there [edit]

Phuket International Airport (HKT). Next, take a taxi or bus. Please note that there are many international flights to Phuket Airport, so in most cases there's no sense to fly first to Bangkok.
