Phuket Shopping Centres

Phuket Shopping Centres are not just for your grocery needs, you can find good deals on clothes, jewelry, household items and whitegoods and the list goes on......

Ocean Plaza Shopping Centres Bangla Road, Patong

This shopping centre is more like a bazaar than a shopping centre, it is located in Bangla Road, Patong Beach. Here you can buy anything, there is a good range of quality mens, women and childrens clothing and shoes.

On the top floor is a bowling alley and a sports store. The first floor has lots of clothing and smaller shops, you can bargain in this area. Downstairs in the basement is the supermarket, bottle shop and chemist. An easyplace to shop when visiting Phuket.

Ocean Plaza Beach Road, Patong

Is located at the southern end of the Beach Road, near the Patong Merlin and the Holiday Inn, very similar to the shopping centre at Bangla Road but the range is slightly different. Handy if you are staying at the Southern end of Patong Beach.

Same same but different..........

Big C Supercentre

The Big C Supercentre is located near Central Festival on the Bypass Road just out of Phuket Town. It has everything including groceries, cosmetics, clothing, shoes, mobile phones and electronic everything.

On the top floor of the shopping Centre you will find a ten pin bowling alley. The quality is not as good as Central Festival but the prices are better. If you are looking to buy cosmetics, have a look in the cosmetics section. I picked up some Revlon colorstay foundation for 420 baht, half the price compared to home.The supermarket is huge, I think it must be the biggest supermarket in Phuket.

Index Living Mall

Is not really a shopping Centre, but is located a little further down the road from the Big C Supercentre, it mainly specializes in household goods such as home theatre systems, kitchenware and bedding, Thai antiques and handicrafts and you guessed it more clothes shops and food.

Tesco Lotus Shopping Centre, Phuket Town

Phukets shopping centre and shopping mall, Tesco Lotus was the first major shopping centre in Phuket, it is located north of the Big C Supercentre. The British supermarket chain Tesco has a significant presence throughout Thailand. This supermarket is big with a wide range of high quality goods, it is basically a supermarket, with electronics and toys and alcohol with very good prices. There is also restaurants as well as an indoor playground for the kids, that is upstairs next to the food court.

Supercheap Cash and Carry Shopping Centre

This Phuket Shopping centre is located North of Phuket Town, on the Thepkrasattri Road. It looks like a big warehouse and has everything you could think of, including whitegoods, household goods, stationary, electronics, groceries and yes more clothes, also a pharmacy that has really good prices. The supermarket is open until midnight, the best time to visit is after dark when it is cooler as there is no air conditioning and it gets really hot.

Makro

Makro is another cash and carry Phuket shopping centres that wholesales, and sells a full range of food and non food products, a great place to shop if you want to buy in bulk. It is located near Central Festival.

Family Mart and 7 Eleven Shopping Centres

You will find Family Mart and 7 Eleven Phuket shopping centres all over the island, these are great for grabbing those extra items as needed.

The only difference we have found is that Family Mart have a range of hot fast food takeway available.

If you really want to experience true Thai shopping in Phuket, you will have to leave the department stores and the phuket shopping centres and head to the many markets or beachside stalls that are around Phuket.
