A few life hacks about vacation in Phuket

1️. Although a vacation in Thailand is relatively not expensive in the world, Phuket is the most expensive island and in general a region in the whole country. This refers to housing prices, food, entertainment and, in general, everything that is in demand among foreign tourists.

2️. Phuket property prices are highly dependent on the seasons. Remember that from January to February there is a peak of the high season, which entails all sorts of price hikes.

3️. If you intend to stay for more than a week or two, then you can save about 20-30% due to long-term leases. Usually, all real estate agencies have this arrangement.

4️. Of course, the closer the housing is to the sea, the more expensive it will cost.

5️. To save on housing you can rent an inexpensive bike, while you still get the opportunity to travel around the island on your own and on wheels.

6️. In the case of rental housing through agencies, make sure that they are verified or at least officially registered as firms, as private intermediaries often take advantage of the inexperience of customers and their lack of knowledge of English or Thai to gain additional benefits by overpricing you have to pay through it.

7️. Sometimes the cost of utilities may not be included in the cost of housing, so check this point before rent, so as not to overpay in the end.

8️. Pools are practical in any villas or apartments, so do not consider this a feature

9. What kind of rest and without excursions and souvenirs? It is impossible to visit Phuket as well as Thailand in general without typing up a bunch of all kinds of souvenirs and going around attractions. If you count only the cost of transport to tourist places, then it will come out at $ 5 per day. It’s hard to say about the cost of souvenirs, since it all depends on you. From $ 20, it will cost full-fledged excursions taking into account transport, they are not difficult to find in Thailand
