Was a long awaited holiday with the homies. Due to a big group, we decided to rent a villa to accommodate all of us. We booked the pearl villa through airbnb. Kiasu abit click this link to get a SGD40 credit off on your next booking (www.airbnb.com.sg/c/leonw132). However i think u can get an even better rate directly from their web @ (http://www.thevillas-phuket.com/holiday-rentals/pearl-villa/). Its located at the south of phuket and on a high ground, which is quite important as on our second day, it was raining heavily and patong area was flooded where our poor driver couldn't go back to his home after dropping us back to the villa. The Villa comes with 6 rooms, 2 living rooms, games corner, a pool and maids to upkeep the villa. They can cook for you and arrange massage services (400 THB) with a nominal fee. And i must recommend this guy!!! Mr Bank (Ka-Ching, Ka- Ching) Jokes aside he is a great guy who provide top notch transportation service. Get him @ (+66 89 647 6142 or www.phuketprivatedriver.com) Trust me, u will never regret it.
First Day :
1)Went to Patong Shooting Range to try out some piu piu piu~~~ Its not the cheapest in town, but its surrounded nearby with Go-Kart, paint-ball etc... Find it more at here (http://www.phuket.com/phuket-maga…/phuket-shooting-range.htm). Be prepared to spend around 1000 THB per game, or you could go further outskirt of Patong and the price will go down to around 600 THB.
2)Next we go to have a stroll at Patong beach, there have alot of seasports going on. If you are into seasports, remember to bargain with them as they have a lot of competitor over there and their first price is always on the high side and they are willing to bring it down after bargaining with them.
3)After the beach, we went to tour around Patong Night Market, partygoers can go to Bangla Road. We had our dinner at Restaurant No 6, which is quite famous and crowded, they got another shop up at the hill and they will provide tut tut to send u there. Their food is ok, and very reasonable. Find out about them @ (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Phuket-No6-Restaurant/148292165241752).
Second Day:
1)Went for an island hopping tour, seriously, everything at here is like marked up by 50%, the initial calling price for Phang Nga Bay tour per person for the tour was 3000 THB, however we manage to bring it down to 1600 THB, which includes transportation from your hotel and a buffet lunch on the ferry. All drinks and fruits except beers are provided for free. They will bring u to 3 island, where the first is the Bat cave. Do not shout or open your mouth too big as u might scare off the bat or eating some bat protein... Next they will bring you to Hong Island where its surrounded by beautiful scenery, do look out at the bottom of each rock where u can see rock spider climbing around it. Finally, it came to the famous James Bond Island. Picture taking time!!! Therefore no pokemon go is allowed here lol... Like seriously there is a sign saying no pokemon go!!! So No!!! Things to note is there are souvenir shops opened up here but their price is sky high, so unless u are feeling generous, just get your souvenir at the mainland instead.
Third Day:
So the ladies was complaining about insufficient photo taking moment and shopping been done. Therefore we booked a Van from Mr Bank to travel around.
Great photo-shooting Area:
1)PHROMPTEP CAPE
Great photo-shooting area, do not forget to apply sunblock peeps as trust me, the girls will be spending a lot of time around here. Check it our more @ (http://www.phuket101.net/promthep-cape/)
2)Nai Han Beach
Damn the beach here is honestly better then Patong beach and Phang Nga Bay both in terms of view and clarity. Check it out more @ (http://www.thenaiharn.com/)
3) Nai Han Market
Great bargain place for seafood as their seafood is very fresh, theres a row of restaurant beside where u can buy ur seafood and they will cook for u for a fee. Grab your souvenirs here too as well if you haven't get any!!!
4) Big Bee Farm
Our driver insist to bring us there to have a look... Nothing much, but you can get really great honey from Big Bee as they claim their honey is pure, but their price is really affordable, would get it if i bought check in luggage. Check them out @ (http://www.thaihoney.com/)
The total cost for this trip per person which include everything (flight, shopping, seafood, games, etc ..) is around SGD550 for a 4D3N, if you manage it well i think a budget of SGD400-SGD500 is sufficient. Hope this can help you guys and girls for your next trip to Phuket.
