I am thinking of a short trip there but with such high prices, it seems not worth it.

Can any bro advise if my estimates are correct?


I think the price is a little lower than the range you noted.

Phuket is expensive. Hotel rate sucks very badly from mid December to mid January. Food in Phuket is substantially more expensive than Bangkok as well.

Travellers go to Phuket primarily for sun, sand and sea, beach and water sports. If solely for lady companionship, Pattaya or even Hatyai is higher on my list than Phuket or Koh Samui.
