We've been in
Phuket Thailand for a few days, and it's actually really enjoyable. A lot of Phuket is incredibly touristy... like tenfold of anywhere else I've ever seen! But we rented a motor-scooter and did some exploring, and managed to find a little beach bungalow place perched up on a hill, overlooking a beautiful ocean cove, and totally secluded from the touristy madness! It's called "Ya Nui Beach" and it's on the very south western side of the island.
Here is a photo of our bungalow. It costs about $25 a night, which is usually a lot more than we'd typically spend, but totally worth it... especially when you think about what kind of place $25 would buy you in America. :)
I'm hoping to work on lots of photos today and post them later, so check back soon!
Yes, Ya Nui beach is another Phuket altogether! You did the right thing by renting a bike - there is so much more to Phuket than the main beaches. Hope you enjoy your stay!
