Forest Bungalows

Forest Bungalows delivers that classic Phuket bungalow experience in Chalong, where you’re close enough to the action but far from the tourist chaos. The property sits on Chaofa Road in Chalong. You’re in the southern part of the island where local life still feels authentic.

The real draw here is the variety of room options – from Standard Double Rooms to spacious Deluxe Bungalows, all with garden views that actually deliver on the “forest” promise. The swimming pool becomes your social hub, and the free on-site parking is a genuine lifesaver if you’re planning to rent a scooter or car to explore.

Insider Tip: Check-in runs until 21:00, which is later than many budget properties. Perfect if your flight lands in the evening or you’re arriving from another Thai destination.

This 2-star property works brilliantly for budget-conscious travelers who want comfort without paying resort prices. Don’t expect luxury finishes or 24-hour room service, but you’ll get reliable basics done well. Solo travelers and couples looking for a quiet base will appreciate the garden setting over busy beachfront locations.

The location puts you within easy reach of Chalong Pier for boat trips and island hopping, while still being connected to the rest of Phuket by the main road network. A scooter rental opens up beaches like Kata and Karon within 20 minutes.
