Apart from selecting the perfect resort for your family vacation, you first need to consider the location.
The location is very important as some areas of Phuket are much better suited for babies and toddlers, whilst the same location may not have enough to offer teenagers.
After you have selected the location the most important decision you and your family will have to make is to choose the resort that will suit the needs of your family.
You need to consider if your family would prefer to stay directly on the beach in a beachfront resort, or would you prefer to stay somewhere closer to all the action.
The age of your kids will play a big part in deciding where to stay and what fun activities you want to do as a family.
Families who travel with babies and very young toddlers will require facilities and services, such as cots and babysitting.
Other families with young kids may like facilities in their hotel to include a good kids club with lots of fun activities and programs available to keep the kids from getting bored.
Then there are families, who are traveling with teenage kids.
Phuket is an ideal spot for a family holiday as there is a great range of family friendly hotels located all around the island.
These hotels not only offer spacious family friendly accommodation, they also offer a variety of services and programs for kids, and believe it or not some of these services are free of charge.
If you have decided that you would like to stay in Patong, one of our personal favourites and a popular choice for families; is the Holiday Inn which is located directly opposite Patong Beach.
However, this is just one of many family friendly hotels in Phuket that offer good value for money.
Throughout this page we will show you some of the best
family friendly hotels that we have found while holidaying with our
kids, offering great value for money and situated in the best locations
with lots of activities for the kids to enjoy.
