I would be especially interested if you knew of extended stay resorts where ederly and disabled people could arrive by wheelchair but have access to sights and services. Very into detox and physical therapy related treatments mixed with dietary improvements.

Maybe group rates? 🥓

To be honest @frankbacon I don't think I can help you in that field but @baiboua is a lovely lady that lives in Phuket and also think that @nalexadre is living in Phuket if you can reach out to them, they may know of some resort that accommodates for all of that. It's been a while since I last lived in Phuket things do change rapidly.

Thanks for the mention, @hangin! 👍

Hi @frankbacon, some resources that might help you.

  1. Wheelchair-accessible hotels and resorts:

  2. Suggestions for areas to stay:

    • The streets in Phuket aren’t always wheelchair-friendly, so I recommend staying close to Patong Beach if you’re looking for a lively area with 24/7 activities. Patong has better infrastructure, with many hotels offering ramps and accessible facilities.
    • For a quieter experience, consider areas like Bang Tao Beach or Nai Harn Beach, which have some resorts with wheelchair-friendly facilities and fewer crowds.
    • For getting around, you might need to rely on private transportation like accessible taxis or hotel shuttles, as public transport and Tuk-Tuk options aren't wheelchair-friendly.
  3. Extended stay options:

    • If it’s a long-term stay, these websites might help you find suitable accommodations:
    • I recommend looking specifically in residential developments like Supalai, Land and Houses, Burasiri, and Laguna. These neighborhoods often include facilities like swimming pools, fitness centers, and other amenities that could make the stay more comfortable and accessible.

Encountering this scenario for the first time, I hope I haven’t missed any important points. One thing is certain: with its amazing sunrises and sunsets, constant temperatures year-round, and the predictable hours of daylight, Phuket is a fantastic place to feel energized and in a great mood—thanks in no small part to the warmth and contagious good humor of the Thai people.
