Cheap Phuket holidays

Posted by admin on May 22nd, 2009 filed in Tourist tips

The Phuket Tourism Association has forecast hotels in the province would see occupancy rates as low as 25-30 per cent, compared to 60 per cent in last year’s low season. Only tourists from the Middle East, India and Australia are likely to be visiting Phuket.

It seemed that promotional offers were not enough to tempt tourists back to Thailand as they were trying to avoid the possibility of catching the flu and were also concerned about political instability.

This situation offers a great opportunity for travellers that appreciate a less crowded Phuket and discounted hotel rooms. Your Phuket holiday will probably never going to be cheaper as during this year’s low season! Don’t let the flu scare you away and start packing your bags for an unforgettable Phuket holiday experience.

Another Andaman island worth considering, though not as nice as Phuket is Penang in Malaysia, along with Langkawi. It’s a bit more tame and better organised, probably not as crowded. Find out more about Penang.
