Venue

Phuket is a world-famous island in Southern Thailand for beautiful beaches. The venue is planned to be in Patong Beach, which is the most lively beach in Phuket.

Venue

KEE Resort & Spa

152/1 Thaveewong Rd., Patong Beach, Kathu
Phuket 83150 Thailand

Accommodations

We will not offer a conference discount of room booking at the venue, partly because various online booking sites offer competitive prices and partly because you have a variety of choices within the walking distance of the venue.

If this is the first visit to Phuket, think this way. Patong beach is the largest, most lively district in Phuket. KEE Resort & Spa is located at the very center of Patong beach, and just 50m from Bangla Street, which is a famous night spot. So when you look for a hotel for you, go to some hotel booking site, search with “Patong Beach” and check the map to find Bangla Road/Bangla Street/Thanon Bangla. But be sure to book your hotel within the walking distance, because local transportation (mostly pick-up truck mini-bus) is quite expensive.

How to reach the venue

If you have a transit at Bangkok (whether Suvarnabhumi or Don Mueang), remember that there’s a special immigration counter for international-domestic transfer/transit passengers. Please find a notice saying “Domestic transfer (Phuket, Krabi, …)”.

When you arrive at the Phuket International Airport, you will easily find counters for taxis and vans. If you prefer a taxi, it will be 800THB while vans will be around 180THB. Both bring you to the hotel you tell them. Different from other places, taxi and van counters at the airport usually have no trouble of fees, so you can choose any one of them. You can also book a pick-up van at the hotel you book, so ask your hotel.
