A perfect vacation means different things to different people. That's why we have designed our resort to cater to families, large groups, and couples.

It is a great place to pick up a unique memento to remember your trip to Phuket. The market is open every evening and is a great place to hang out and soak up the lively atmosphere. You'll find street performers, live music, and even a small beer garden where you can sit back and enjoy a cold drink while taking in the sights and sounds around you.
3. Karon Avenue:
If you're in the mood for more upscale shopping during your stay, check out Karon Avenue. This stylish boutique spot is just a short distance from our resort and offers a range of high-end shops, restaurants, and services. One of the highlights of Karon Avenue is the abundance of fresh fruits and organic produce available, making it a great place to stock up on local Thai fruits or produce to take back home with you. In addition, you'll find a range of convenience stores like 7/11 as well. Why not indulge in a little retail therapy and explore the range of boutiques selling everything from designer clothing and accessories to handmade jewelry and artisanal crafts. And when you're ready to relax and unwind, there are plenty of massage parlors and wellness services on offer, making Karon Avenue the perfect destination for a day of pampering and luxury.

Looking for a place to satisfy all your beachwear and pampering needs? Look no further than this charming shopping center. Shop 'til you drop for luscious oils, luxurious lotions, and candles that smell like heaven; you'll find everything you need to indulge in some serious spa time. And for those who want to take their beach style up a notch, Center Point Village sells an extensive collection of super-stylish beach and swimwear. Furthermore, you can treat yourself to a custom-tailored outfit or accessory, as plenty of tailors and sewists are on hand to create a one-of-a-kind piece just for you.
Tips for Shopping in Phuket
As a visitor to Phuket, there are a few shopping tips you should keep in mind to make your experience smooth and enjoyable. First and foremost, it's essential to be aware of currency exchange rates and where to exchange your money safely. Many shops and vendors in Phuket accept credit cards, but carrying cash with you is always a good idea, especially in night markets or when street shopping.
When it comes to bargaining, it's a common practice in Thailand, but it's important to be polite and respectful throughout the process. Start by offering a lower price than the asking price, but don't haggle aggressively or disrespectfully. Finally, it's always a good idea to shop around and compare prices before making a purchase, as prices can vary widely from shop to shop. By following these tips and being mindful of local customs, you can enjoy a stress-free and satisfying shopping experience during your stay in Phuket.
With Thavorn Palm Beach Resort as your accommodation in Phuket you can shop easily, knowing you have a comfortable retreat to return to. With a range of shopping options just a short distance away, you’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to finding the perfect souvenirs, gifts, and local products. Our convenient shuttle services and transportation arrangements make getting to and from these shopping destinations a breeze.
