I was in Phuket with my friends "Bolangers" 4 days 3 night. We went there in backpacker way, and you know what, we booked the Air Asia ticket flight about 1 year ago when there was a Big Sale, so we decided booked for Phuket. Actually there were 15 person who join but because some reason 5 person did not join with us :(
We stayed at Patong because there's a center of tourist.
Phuket famous with the Phi-Phi Island if you ever watched 'The Beach' played by Leonardo Dicaprio. You have to pay 700 baht/person (you have to bargain) which is pick up from hotel, boat, snorkeling in Monkey Beach, lunch and back to the hotel (one around trip). Unfortunately, the weather wasn't good,got hard raining everyday and I got seasick anyway so i did not snorkeling, just took photos and saw how beauty the Phi Phi is. Beside Phi-Phi you can visit James Bond Island, i didn't took that trip because our budget wasn't enough :P
Next, one place like Khaosan Road if you ever been going to Bangkok is Bangla Road. You have to go there, is a must. you will watch a night life there. I wont speak too much, here's the pic
