Once upon a time we went around the order 30 apartments in Chiang Mai and reviewed these options. I no longer pretend to this feat and I want to give some information about apartments in Phuket Town. Since in Phuket we decided rent a house, then we bypassed only 10 condominiums for general development, so to speak.
Although, of course, the thought crept in that instead of a house, you can rent an apartment and thereby save money. True, then I would have to live in a city, far from the ocean. You can find my instructions for booking a house at the link: How to book a house in Thailand - 5 ways.

About condominiums in Phuket
First, some background information. We have personally compiled Phuket hotel overview. All other informational posts you can see in our free travel guide By yourself to Thailand. If you have questions, then first of all it is better to look first there.

Be sure (and I insist) to check for discounts or special offers on the excellent Roomguru service. He will quickly and easily show you discounts in all existing booking systems. In Asia, for example, there are a lot of offers on Agoda.com, which are much more interesting than for exactly the same hotels on Booking.com.
There are condominiums in Phuket, but not as many as in Chiang Mai, and most of them are concentrated in Phuket Town, and not on the beaches. At least that's what we got..
Prices for apartments are comparable to renting a house, so this is a rather dubious savings. The average price for an apartment is 7000 baht per month for a simple room. While a simple house can be rented for 10,000 baht.

The rooms are large and all with kitchen cubicles. There is a small pool on the roof both here and there. The buildings are both new.
