chinese to phuket

[TWEEGEE79]

Hi to all!
I'm going to Phuket in Aug with a friend and we will be staying at the Best Western Phuket Ocean Resort. Since it 's our 1st trip to Phuket, we need some help!
1)We are chinese, do we get a different treat from the bg in phuket? Will they ignore us or treat us badly?
2)Karon is more quite than Patong beach. If we want to enjoy in Patong, is there a problem to get back to Karon late at nite?
3)Is there any message place in Karon that provide the full service like Patong's Christin? How much would it be?
4)How to get to my hotel from airport? As I only have the hotel add in english. How much will it cost by taxi?
Thanks again......hope to hear from u all soon!

PS: I have post the same thread to marc26. I scared that he might not have to time to reply me.....so I hope others can help me as well. no hard feelings ok! Thanks!

1) you have baht right, then you will treated the same
2) you can get a tuk tuk back to Karon no problems
3) I'll leave that one to someone that knows Karon
4) see if the hotel provides a free pickup service, if not B550 by airport limo

Dont worry, you will enjoy yourselves.

No. All bgs call you hansum man and as long as you have baht, they will love you long long time.

2)Karon is more quite than Patong beach. If we want to enjoy in Patong, is there a problem to get back to Karon late at nite?

No. The Tuk Tuks are there to ensure you get back to your hotel with their exhorbitant fare!

3)Is there any message place in Karon that provide the full service like Patong's Christin? How much would it be?

None in Karon but you can find them also in Phuket town.

4)How to get to my hotel from airport? As I only have the hotel add in english. How much will it cost by taxi?

Airport limousine service 550 Baht; Meter taxi would be cheaper and they located at the left after the car park area outside the arrival hall

To ensure that you enjoy yourself fully , I suggest that you drop by at Mai Thai Bar at Soi Sric off Soi Bangla and look for Nicke. Ask him for advice. Steve at G-Spot Agogo at Soi Seadragon or Graham of Love Bar at Tiger would also be of great help. The latter two also located along Soi Bangla.

Its good that Malaysians are coming back again to Phuket. Get more of your friends over there. Its great and you will have no regret.

Enjoy yourself
