The hotel has a great pool and great rooms and its own resteraunts and things. it is directly across the road from the beach. While you are in phuket i suggest you go and see the Phuket FantaSea and go on an elephant trekk.<br><b>References : </b><br>My stay in phuket. i’ve just come back from thailand and we stayed at the holiday inn on patong beach in phuket. there is shops and markets on both sides of the hotel, lots of resteraunts and lots of nice people. it is a bit far away from places you might wanna go but at least you get to see some of the scenery?!

Turn right out of the hotel and go down past Subway, there is a massage place that sits behind where you book tours. This place does the best foot massage, you'll find it because they are always busy. The rooms are quite large and have a nice balcony, with more than half overlooking the pool or beach. The buffet breakfast was great and they had an amazing assortment of food to choose from including bacon, eggs, sausages and fresh fruit and danishes, plus heaps more! The staff were very friendly and unobtrusive. USD 62/night at early Sep http://www.discovery-thailand.com/Hotels%20Map%20Pages/Phuket%20Map/Patong%20Hotel%20Location%20Map.html<br><b>References : </b><br> Patong Bay Garden Resot is great value for money and is suitable for a couple looking for a very romantic place to stay or likewise its suitable for a family because of the nice pool and close proximity to the beach! also, good location for shopping and the night life on Bangla Road.

The whole family will enjoy it! Full of fun for the kids and a relaxing holiday for the adults. Also the Katathani Hotel is lovely (directly on the beach). For points of interest visit Wat Chalong (nice buddhist temple),the Sea shell museum, View Point at sun-set time, the big Buddha (enormous statue built on the Hill), explore nearby islands for snorkeling etc.<br><b>References : </b><br> Try Club Med in Kata (not so cheap though).

When you say we - that means 2 adults plus 3 kids - you may have to specify that in your communications with the hotel. That's a full load of laundry and house cleaning for the hotel. The hotels will have to have a roll out for the kids. Some suites may be better for your bunch. Mention how much you want to spend per night, don't say cheap or middle - use a baht figure. Here is a list of hotels you can look over. http://www.asiahotels.com/location-listby-starrating/Phuket-Thailand.asp&sr=3 http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotels-g293920-Phuket-Hotels.html http://www.phuket.com/hotel/family-resort.htm Stop in Bangkok for a few days at the beginning of your trip. See the city, take some tours and then go to Phuket. Spend the last night in Bangkok again so you can set yourself up for you ride back home. When you schedule your flights to Phuket keep in mind that there are 2 airports in Bangkok. Don Muang (on the other side of Bangkok from Suvarnabhumi) also has flights to Phuket. Some tourists want to hop off the plane from home and immediately fly out to somewhere else - except sometimes they don't have enough time to make the transfers! Bangkok is worth a look too! Bangkok is warm enough to get a tan just walking around - all of Thailand is warm. Try not to waste all of your time at a beach, Chiang Mai is a nice place to visit too (sunny enough to get a tan there too!) Good luck. <br><b>References : </b><br> There are lots of hotels in various price ranges – how much per night do you want to spend?
