It is no secret that Phuket has a lot to offer. An attractive, island-destination in southern Thailand, Phuket is one of the most affordable destinations in the region. Deemed a luxury destination, one does not need to have a luxurious bank account to live an extremely comfortable life here.
The general cost of living in Phuket is much cheaper than other cities in the Southeast Asian region. Day to day expenses are minimal, healthcare is of high quality and affordable, while the wide variety of international schools on the island are attractive for families. Throw in the low cost for leisurely activities such as golf, wake boarding, scuba diving, Muay Thai training and the wide variety of gym and fitness programs on the island and one can be easily happy and healthy here in Phuket.
Property prices do continue to rise in Phuket, and this is due to a few factors. Thailand offers a retirement visa which is issued to foreigners over 50 years of age. Phuket is an attractive retirement destination and many of those being issued retirement visas are scooping up property as fast they can.
Another factor is Phuket International Airport. Currently, Phuket is accessible from nearly anywhere in the world and as the international airport continues to expand and grow, more visitors will come to the island. Airfare to Phuket is relatively cheap and travel quite easy, so as the island continues to progress and push forward, we should see more tourists on a year-round basis boosting the economy.
Lastly, it’s important to note that as Phuket continues to expand and grow, the government is wholeheartedly focused on tourism and approves the updating of infrastructures such as roads and communication over the last few years. Phuket prides itself on being a world-class luxury holiday destination, and the future is bright for the island in that respect.
