Is Hawaii too expensive? Here’s how much 6 nights in Phuket cost me.
- Phuket, Thailand has many things in common with Hawaii, but sky-high prices aren’t one of them.
- We pay just $84 per night for our spacious suite, by comparison, in Hawaii, rates at a similar property would easily start at $400.
- But getting to Phuket isn’t easy, or cheap. It’s at least a 21-hour trip from the U.S.
The bartender – who is smiling as if he’s the one on vacation – removes my empty glass and replaces it with a fresh one. The sun hasn’t even begun to set. Yet, I’m already on my second mai tai. Here in Phuket, you don’t have to wait for happy hour to find cocktails under $5.
