Where to Stay in Phuket with Kids?

The first thing to know when choosing one of the resorts in Phuket for families is that it is a large beautiful tropical island with various beach resort areas to choose from.  

Some beach areas are more popular with young travellers who want to party, while others are best for families seeking a quiet place to relax.  So when considering where to stay in Phuket with kids, it pays to do your homework and choose a location that is suited to the sort of holiday you’re after.  

To help you choose the best area to stay in Phuket for families, below we’ve briefly covered some of the more popular locations to stay on the island.

Mai Khao / Nai Yang

Mai Khao and Nai Yang are quiet areas, home to beautiful, pristine, sandy beaches, making them the best beach to stay at in Phuket for families wanting to get away from it all.

These beach areas are the closest resort areas to the airport and are also home to Splash Jungle Waterpark and National Parks.

While there are places to eat here, don’t expect to find much shopping or nightlife.  You’re at least an hour’s drive from the tourist areas from Mai Khao or Nai Yang.

Bang Tao Beach

Bang Tao is also fairly close to the airport and is home to a range of upmarket resorts, including the famous Laguna Phuket, one of the largest resort complexes in Asia.  The complex has a range of resorts, restaurants, and shuttle boats and buses taking guests between them.

The 8km long beach here is considered one of the most beautiful in Phuket, and the further north you go, the less developed the beach gets – so great for those wanting a more secluded location.

I stayed here while in Phuket, and I wasn’t really a fan.  The area is entirely made up of upscale resorts and fancy apartments – to get out and get that Phuket vibe; you will need to get a taxi each time.

Kamala Beach

Further south, you’ll find Kamala Beach – a small village with a gorgeous beach considered one of the best places for families.  Here families can enjoy the stunning 2km beach and a good selection of bars and restaurants.

Kamala Beach is also just a short drive to Patong for those families wanting to experience the bustling tourist area but then return to their quiet resort.

Patong

Patong is the most popular resort area in Phuket and the most touristy.  The location is popular among the younger travellers coming for the nightlife, but many families still holiday here to have everything at their fingertips.

In Patong, you’ll find plenty of shops, night markets, massage places, cafes, restaurants and street vendors, particularly around Bangla Road (considered the red light district).  While on the beach, you’ll find a plethora of water sports.

Patong is also home to some fantastic family friendly hotels Phuket offers at great prices.

While I used to rate Patong – during my recent visit, I found it way too busy and crowded with young partygoers and lots of marijuana shops – so do be aware of this if you book a hotel in Patong.  

Karon / Kata

Next to Patong, Karon and Kata are Phuket’s second most popular tourist areas.  As well as being home to gorgeous beaches, here you’ll find plenty of resorts, restaurants, bars and shops – there is heaps going on, but much quieter than Patong.

Kata is by far my favourite area of Phuket to stay in.  The beaches are beautiful – plenty to do – very similar to Patong but much nicer in my view and more of a family vibe.
