If you are planning a longer trip to the beautiful island of Phuket and want more home-like accommodations on a budget, the service apartments are an excellent choice. Many are located nearby the beach where visitors can enjoy sunning and snorkelling in the crystal clear waters of the Andaman Sea. Some service apartments feature swimming pools, restaurants and cable TV as well as kitchenettes and even maid and laundry service, giving visitors the best of both worlds at competitive rates. See below for a list including photos and ratings.

Located in one of the quieter, more mellow beach towns on Phuket, Tik's Place offers quality accommodations at backpacker rates.
