Phuket Hotel Market Overview

In 2024, Phuket saw 8.6 million foreign arrivals in Phuket, a figure 4.7% below pre-pandemic levels. However, recovery patterns differ across segments. Foreign arrivals surged to 5.3 million, a remarkable 37% year-on-year increase, bringing the numbers in line with pre-pandemic levels. This strong rebound highlights Phuket’s enduring appeal as a premier resort destination in Thailand, particularly among international visitors. In contrast, domestic arrivals totalled 3.3 million, with a modest 6% year-on-year growth but still 11% below pre-pandemic levels.

Phuket Hotel Market Overview
Regarding market feeders, Russian tourists made up the largest group of international travellers with 1.1 million visitors, a 26% YoY growth, followed closely by Chinese with 1.0 million, 76% YoY growth, India with 0.5 million, 58% YoY growth, Australia 0.3 million (-4% YoY), and UK with 0.3 million (37% YoY).
Phuket’s tourism market in 2024 continued its trajectory toward full recovery, underpinned by significant growth in Russian, Chinese and Indian arrivals accounting for 45% of Phuket’s total international arrivals. The Thai’s government extension of the visa-free travel initiatives from late 2023 has been instrumental in driving recovery. China, historically, Phuket’s largest international source market, recorded just under 1.0 million visitors in 2024, still trailing the pre-pandemic peak of 3.0 million.
