to Phuket, we are staying at Patong Merlin and have booked Jetstar flights and accommodation ourselves. We are regular visitors to Bali but this will be our 1st trip to Phuket. What is the best way to transfer to resort?? Any other 1st timer tips will be appreciated. We are going in July School Holidays...counting the days now...!!!!

Its a fair distance from the airport to Patong Merlin,Will the Hotel do transfers? It might be cheaper than a taxi.

It will only cosy about 460 - 500baht for a meter taxi from the airport. Though depending onhow many of you there are you might be better off with a private transfer, these cost about 600babt.

Heres a link to a few of Phukets recommended drivers, we can highly recommend Daj.
