Phuket Shopping Centres

By Paula Parker

Phuket Shopping Centres are not just for your grocery needs, these shopping centres and malls are where you can find some of the best buys on a range of goods including great deals on clothing, jewelry, household items, white-goods and more.

Below is a list of Phuket's shopping centres and malls.

Phuket Shopping Centres & Malls

Ocean Plaza Shopping Centre - Bangla Rd

Ocean Plaza shopping centre is more like a bazaar than a shopping centre, it is located in Bangla Road at Patong Beach.

Here you can buy everything you could imagine, there is a good range of quality mens, women and children's clothing along with shoes.

Ocean Plaza - Beach Road in Patong

This shopping centre is located at the southern end of the Beach Road, near the Patong Merlin and the Holiday Inn.

This is very similar to the shopping centre located in 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 what I pay at home.

The supermarket is huge, I think it must be the biggest supermarket in Phuket.

You will also find a Big C shopping centre downstairs in JungCeylon.


Index Living Mall

The Index Living Mall mainly specializes in household goods such as home theatre systems, kitchenware, bedding, Thai antiques, handicrafts, clothes shops and food.

It is located a little further down the road from the Big C Supercentre.

This supermarket is big with a wide range of high quality goods, it is basically a supermarket, with electronics, toys and alcohol and the prices are very good.

There is also restaurants and an indoor playground for the kids, which is located upstairs next to the food court.


Supercheap Cash & Carry Shopping Centres

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 is another cash and carry Phuket shopping centres that wholesales, and sells a full range of food and non food products.

These are handy little shops for grabbing those extra items you may need while holidaying in Phuket.

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 beach side stalls that are around Phuket.
