On the island of Phuket, all the conditions for a full-fledged rest with children of any age have been created. A well-developed infrastructure, a well-selected period for a trip and droplet of courage - will turn into a family vacation on the island in a fascinating adventure for children and adults.
Suitable time to relax on the island
Despite the fact that on Phuket all year round warmth, with children to this Thai resort it is better to go to the beginning of spring, when the number of holidaymakers begins to decrease, and the rainy season does not allow to fully feel. True, if the multidimity of the parents does not confuse and guarantees dry and clear weather, then December-February will be the ideal period for recreation. Hardwood weather, the gentle sea and the lack of wear heat will make up both beach holidays and entertaining and educational acquaintance with the interesting corners of Phuket.
As for the summer months, financially they are more acceptable. However, the monsoon wind and often coming rains will deliver inconvenience and sweep the mood to all participants of the trip. Waves on the sea and suddenly spilled rains will force travelers to constantly change their plans, which small holidaymakers will not approve. So the savings and inappropriate season can turn rest with children to one big disappointment. And yet, if the long-awaited vacation falls on the summer, then it is better that the journey takes place in June or July. In these months, rain is usually short-lived and the likelihood of flooding is not so great as in August and September.
Accessible hotels and leisure beaches with children
Since the rest on Phuket is rarely a day, an important role is played correctly selected place for overnight. The choice of hotels, ready to take guests with children, at this resort is great.

Spacious rooms, clean beach with water attractions and moderate depth of the sea in the area are provided. As for the conditions for children, most hotels have playgrounds, swimming pools of slides and a kids club. Nutrition occurs on the principle of a buffet, whose dishes are more suitable for older children. As for the kids, they will have to feed themselves.
Find rooms with kitchen easier in hotels located in Kata Beach. True, most of the local hotels are not new buildings, but renovated. However, the green area with children's playgrounds, pools and tropical barisades is not inferior to elegant five-star hotels in the Bang Tao area. And the availability of rooms with a kitchenette and the necessary set of dishes make these hotels in the ideal option for tourists with young children. Plus, in the area there is a large network supermarket, pharmacies and a pure sandy beach with a gentle sunset.
Children's entertainment Phuket
Rest with a child without active and diverse entertainment is simply impossible. In this regard, Phuket will delight tourists by the presence of picturesque parks with different species inhabitants (park of birds, the kingdom of tigers, the garden of butterflies, aquarium). For teenagers on the island there is a couple of extreme entertainment. Young male tourists will gladly experience themselves on the jungle tarzan. Baji Jump in Kata Beach. Which of the boys will refuse to make a jump from a height of 50 meters. The main thing is that parents allow. Also, the portion of unforgettable impressions will provide young travelers with kart tracks, located near Patong Beach. And to consolidate the courage, brave tourists of young age will remain only to participate in Zorbing.
