    Only come to dive

    Posted by Loulie 19 January 2007

    There are better beaches and cheaper hotels elsewhere in Thailand. We were on a liveaboard in the Similan Islands for three days, which was just awesome. But staying in Phuket was a comedown.

    Kata is ok, Patong is just awful - I couldn't find a single redeeming feature. Other parts of Phuket are doubtless interesting, but not the beaches in the south.

    If you are going to Patong in Phuket and you want to pay 600-1,500 Baht depending on season. Then you could do a lot worse than:The NeptunaThe ExpatThe Family InnThe C & N Hotel

    Kamala Beach

    Posted by RGatward 22 November 2005

    This was one of the most devastated resorts on the island, and frequently feature on world wide TV in amateur video footage.It's one of the quietest places, with a long beach between two rocky headlands. There's a few hotels, and restuarants. The Kamala beach hotel is top class right on the beach, with really smart cocktail lounge, mirror pool and pool bar. We used their facilities (free pool if you buy cocktail), and stayed at the Benjamin, just along the beach, no facilities, but £7 per night for two, comfy room with sea view and en-suite. The Rock Fish restuarant, just overlooking the beach on the south cliff is excellent, though with Bangkok prices.
