The Base Rise & Central Area

A short walk, 7-11 is great for basic supplies. Note you can only buy Alcoholic beverages can only be purchased between 11am and 2pm and then from 5pm until midnight. Walking further is Central Festival. From high end shopping, fine dining to regular shopping and food. There are also lockers which can be used to store luggage (near the entrance shown on map).

Korea Town Phuket

Korean food destination in Phuket includes Choongman Chicken Phuket & Sulbing, Hongdae Phuket. Basically, a much better version of KFC. They also allow suitcases to be stored for free. So great if you want to eat and then go shopping, get a massage before leaving for the airport.

At the end of the road on the corner is a local cafe. Offering all the usual coffees and teas, soft drinks and alcohol. A long with pastries, sandwiches, Thai and Russian menu items.

One of my favourites for good food and beer. They brew their own beer.
