There is also a tantalising array of dining options when you step off your water taxi at our Laem Hin dock. Here are a few highlights:
Phuket Town
Phuket Town is the island locals’ culinary centre, with hundreds of restaurants serving every kind of Thai and international cuisine. Go native and dine at one of the many restaurants catering to residents. The food is as inexpensive as it is authentic. For international cuisine, the city offers many top-notch eateries run by excellent chefs, such as Salvatore’s Italian restaurant located midtown.
Rawai/Kata/Karon
Craving fresh caught seafood? Travel to the southern portion of Phuket and dine at one of the dozens of eateries that surround the working fishing villages in the area. Rawai offers seaside dining while sitting on esplanade in front of long tailed fishing boat while Mom Tri’s selection of eateries in Kata offer some of the best upscale dining in Phuket.
Boat Lagoon/Royal Phuket Marina
Perhaps Phuket’s centre for expatriate hobnobbing, these two marinas located next door to one another- five minutes from our Laem Hin dock- offer many fine restaurants and bars, including the Watermark, Skippers and Limoncello.
Patong/Surin/Bang Tao
Patong is Phuket Town’s Western mirror image, with every imaginable type of European and American cuisine widely available. Excellent dining can be had at the likes of Floyd’s, La Grita, Sam’s Steak House, Taste, Supper Club and Tatonka’s. The very best in seafood and Royal Thai cuisine can be enjoyed at local establishments such as Baan Rim Pa, Savoey Seafood, and Silk.
Shopping Malls
Phuket’s major malls, Central Festival and Jungceylon, both offer wide choice for shoppers seeking a culinary treat while out and about.
Floating Seafood Restaurants
No need to go far from your villa- there are many on-the --water seafood venues right around the corner that will prepare a fresh seafood meal for you at great prices.
