Phuket here we come!!
Unbelieveably we get up in time to catch the 9am boat, its a much nicer one that on the way over, but cold! Journey doesnt take too long maybe an hour and a half or so then we arrive in phuket and get a minibus to karon beach in phuket. When we arrive we're greeted by a lovely thai lady who shows us up to our dorm. I'm literally a big gobsmacked …
Phuket... Fu ket...!
We spent two nights on Phuket and didn't really enjoy it too much. Perhaps it was because we really liked Koh Lanta and were missing it, or maybe it was because the weather was a bit overcast and dull. Either way, we started to plan our escape pretty much as soon as we arrived. Our guesthouse was called The Pineapple and its English-Thai owners …

As we were watching the pennies, we didn’t fancy spending 800Baht (around £16) to get a taxi up there.

Mosquito net mission...

It turned out to be much more of a mish than we were expecting! So we caught a sawngthaew (a local bus that is basically a small truck with two wooden bench seats in the back) across the …

“ Great location ”
Reviewed May 15, 2012
Gret place, would stay again. Aircon was awesome for cheap price. Karon beach is great, not a party town but only a little scooter ride to Patong if you float your boat that way. Lek is a great host and the Thai restaurant "3siblings" is cheap and great food!
