Centara can help you choose the right accommodation on the best beaches to suit your client’s requirements on Thailand’s largest and most popular island.

Finding the ideal beach

Phuket attracts more international visitors than either Hawaii or Bali, and there are many beaches, each with their own character. The most popular beach is Patong. If you’re looking for restaurants, nightlife, and a lively atmosphere, this is the place.

For families, head to Karon Beach where little restaurants and shops are found on fine sand with the sea here ideal for wading.

Between Karon and Patong is the beautiful Kata Beach and its smaller sibling, Kata Noi, both suitable for families, friends and couples. The views are some of the best on the island and great for surfing, snorkelling and plenty of other water activities.
