Phuket is quite a nice place, well it was back in the 1980's when I was first out there staying in a tree-house on Kata-Noi beach for 50 Baht per night. Next to Kata-Noi beach is Karon Beach and when I was there it had a Club-Med on it, so lots of tourists, and today Phuket still has many tourists since it is such a beautiful place with all the amenities available of a modern western existence, but I think the prices have gone up considerably...
Back in the 80's I could buy big-fat 'Buddha Sticks' for 20 baht each on the beach, but I'm not sure if you can today, since its been a while.
