Phuket Free Travel Hotel Recommendations 2017

Phuket is rich in marine entertainment resources. The climate here is very suitable for beach entertainment and diving. Everyone is also very interested in water entertainment projects. There are also various services and food waiting for you. Of course, it is still necessary to choose a good hotel in Phuket. Let me share with you the recommended hotels for free travel in Phuket in 2017.

I took advantage of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday to go to Phuket with my husband for an anniversary honeymoon. It was mainly for vacation, relaxation and hotel stays. The whole trip was short and relaxing. I would like to write some personal suggestions for friends who want to go on vacation. Welcome to refer to it.

First of all, a brief introduction to Phuket:

There are three main beaches in Phuket. The most prosperous and lively one is Patong Beach, which has all kinds of shopping and food. The more famous one is Jiangxi Leng. (One-stop shopping + food center), Bar Street (very lively at night), Banzan Seafood Market (I feel they are all a scam for Chinese people, not recommended), Let's

relax

spa (the largest Thai massage chain, very professional), as well as the Simon Transvestite Show (transvestite performances are suitable for all ages), and the Emperor Adult Show (the scale is so large that it ruins the view, and the price can be bargained to 1,000 per person). The disadvantage is that it is a bit over-developed, the beach is dirty, and it can be noisy at night.

The second is Kata Beach and Karon Beach, located south of Patong. Relatively speaking, the beach water is relatively clean, the hotel is quiet, and there are more foreigners. In the south and east of Phuket, there are Grand Emperor Island, Little Emperor Island, Phi Phi Island, etc., which are suitable for snorkeling and deep diving to see small fishes. There are also coral islands suitable for various water sports. If you are interested, you can choose to go out for a day trip. .

Preparation before traveling:

1. Air ticket. The round trip price we booked from Nanjing to Phuket was RMB 2,500, and it was cheaper on the official website of China Eastern Airlines than on Qunar. The flight time is four and a half hours, for reference only. Recommend a WeChat public account for discounted air tickets: Travel Radar, which often promotes special air tickets.

2. Visa. Once you have booked your flight ticket, you can apply for a visa on Taobao. The price is very cheap. What I applied for was expedited and it took 4 working days. I received it within a week for 16.8 yuan per person! If you have enough time, you don’t need to expedite it for a few dollars. The visa on arrival costs 1,000 baht (about 200 RMB), and you have to queue up, so it is recommended to apply for it on Taobao in advance.

3. Telephone card happy

card. If you buy a ticket on Taobao for RMB 30 each, you will get a needle, a map, and an immigration card for free. It’s 60 yuan to buy locally. Buy it in advance, put it on on the plane, and be sure not to turn on the Internet. You can use it as soon as you get off the plane and open it. 2.5G traffic for 7 days is enough.

4. Exchange Thai Baht?, about 1￥=5?. The consumption in Thailand is not high, except for taking a taxi which is a bit expensive (the next article will talk about the solution), just exchange 5,000 RMB for two people. Thailand is a tipping country. Taxi taxis, hotel waiters, and restaurant waiters are all required to tip. Generally, 20 yuan is enough. Spa masseurs, captains, and tour guides who go out to sea need to tip more, about 100 yuan.

5. Travel. Google Maps can be used, but you need to download a taxi app: grab. Log in in advance and don’t study it until you use it. I just opened it when I needed to use it when I changed hotels. The temporary number in Thailand seemed to be unusable. In the end, it cost 700? to call a taxi from the hotel. Later, I used the number of a domestic friend to log in. , it only cost 400? to take a taxi to Patong, which was cheap and convenient.

6. Pick up and drop off from the airport. Be sure to book in advance! Once the hotel is booked, you can book it on Taobao. It takes about an hour to get to Patong from the airport, and it only costs less than 100 on Taobao. Otherwise, taking a taxi will cost 1,000 even if you use Grab. (The universal Taobao!) Just call the airport and wait to be ripped off~

7. Entertainment items. According to your own itinerary, you can book a day trip to the sea, Let'srelax Thai massage, jungle leap, elephant riding, transvestite show, etc. in advance on Taobao.

8. About going to sea. Those who like snorkeling, diving and water sports can try it. There are many options for a day trip to the sea, mainly including Emperor Island Coral Island or Phi Phi Island, etc. The main methods include speedboat and catamaran sailing. We chose the Emperor Island Catamaran One-day Tour. On the sailboat, you can sit on the deck and enjoy the sea breeze. , the waves will bring seawater up, so don’t sit in the front if you don’t want to get wet.

The speed boat is fast but the shaking will be more severe, but it is not recommended for people with severe seasickness. (You must take seasickness medicine. Several people on the same boat vomited, and one aunt just vomited for the whole day)? If you go out to sea If planning a day trip, it is best to wear a wet suit with long sleeves and long pants, and apply Sunscreen Sunscreen, otherwise you will get serious sunburn!

9. Other essential items: Sunscreen Spray (sunscreen spray cannot replace it) effect), gastrointestinal medicine (eating seafood and drinking beer may cause diarrhea), waterproof bag for mobile phone, and a long sleeve (Thailand airport is very air-conditioned). Use Dianping to find delicious food.

10. Special recommendation: If you like taking pictures, I suggest you go to Taobao to rent a GoPro camera. It can be used in the sky or at sea. It has a wide angle and looks great when taking photos. Huaer and the boy used GoPro cameras, which are very high-definition. The small one is also very convenient to carry. Snorkeling and diving are great for taking pictures of small fish and turtles. You can also post them to Moments anytime through the app! The memories left by videos are far more vivid and beautiful than photos.

Hotel recommendation:

If you like to go shopping and have fun, you can stay in Patong, watch transvestite shows, adult shows, do massage, and go out for nightlife. These are all in Patong. If you like If you want to stay in a hotel, relax and enjoy yourself, if you want to swim in the sand, stay in Karon or Kata. We stayed in Patong for two nights and then in Kata for two nights. Prices in Thailand are not high, and hotels are much cheaper than in Sanya. Personally, I think hotels in Kata are very suitable for vacation, and there are many choices.

Patong: We stayed at Avista. This hotel is on the mountain. There are many free shuttle buses to and from Jiangxi Leng Shopping Center every day. The drive takes about ten minutes, so travel is quite convenient. There are many foreigners staying here. The breakfast in the hotel is delicious and there is an infinity swimming pool. The downside is that because the hotel is on a mountain with a lot of plants around, all kinds of bugs and geckos can be seen everywhere. A gecko ran in as soon as we opened the window in the morning, so we didn't open the floor-to-ceiling windows for two days. If you are particularly afraid of bugs, it is not recommended to stay here. The specific situation of the hotel can be found on Ctrip.

The other hotel in Patong that was considered at the time was the Grand Mercure Patong. This hotel has a good location and is within walking distance of Jiangxi Leng. It is suitable for tourists who like to go out and hang out. In short, in Thailand, a place where taxis are very expensive, travel convenience must be taken into consideration. The reviews on Ctrip are also good. If you have made many itinerary arrangements in Patong, it is recommended to stay here.

Kata: We stayed at Katatani Beach Resort. This hotel is very large and covers the entire Kata Beach. The hotel is divided into two wings. We stayed in the Thani wing. Downstairs is the swimming pool and the hotel's private beach. There are families and restaurants right outside the door, and they are delicious and cheap. The rooms in the Bhuri wing are a little further from the beach. There are 6 restaurants and 6 swimming pools in the entire hotel, including an infinity pool, but we didn't go to see them. The seaside was already very attractive to us. Especially watching the sunset on a lounge chair in the evening, paired with the coconut trees in the hotel, is beautiful without filters. Another very thoughtful thing about this hotel is that it provides a lounge after check-out, with a sofa TV, computer and shower room, which is suitable for travelers taking night flights. My husband likes it here very much and said he would stay for a few more days next time. The price is around 900, and this one is the most recommended at this price.

There are two other Internet celebrity hotels in Kata Beach: NookDee and fotohotel, the price is more than 500. Both of them are on the mountain, so traveling will be inconvenient. They are suitable for girls who like to take pictures, especially foto.

In the hotel photo hotel, you are likely to meet a small Internet celebrity, but other aspects are average. After all, the price is here. This hotel is suitable for girlfriends to hang out and take photos. Both of these hotels also have lounges after check-out. Overall, Nook

Dee is better.

Recommended hotel for rich people: Kata Rockshotel. They are all villa rooms. There are not many rooms, so you must book in advance. It looks perfect. I hope I can take my family to stay for a few days in the future.

The above are a few hotels that I have done my research on. As for the Internet celebrity hotel Pullman, a friend stayed there. It is only fifteen minutes from the airport and the location is relatively remote. If you just want to stay in the hotel without going out, can be considered. Friends don’t recommend staying there, but I personally prefer Catatani.

Okay, that’s all I can think of for now. If you have any other questions, you can ask me and I’ll tell you everything.
