Every figure below was measured on a fixed date and is reproduced here unchanged. Where a series has no observation for सितंबर 2026, the row says so instead of showing a number.

Medians in US dollars; P25–P75 is the middle half of the observations. This is the first report of the index: there is no earlier period to compare with, so every change column is empty by design. An em-dash means the series had no publishable median for this period. Phuket Travel Price Index · measured सितंबर 2026.

This is the first report of the index, so there is no earlier period to measure against: every figure below is a level, not a change, and the comparison columns are empty on purpose. Every figure is a median of observations collected on fixed dates by the same method for every area and every segment, published with its sample size; a segment with fewer than five observations gets no median at all, which is why some rows in the tables below are blank rather than rounded down to something plausible.
The headline series is a 4-star hotel night, island-wide: $62 in सितंबर 2026 across 210 properties, with the middle half of the market between $41 and $134. Around it: $50 for a hotel night of any class, $3,975 for a three-bedroom villa by the month, $24 for the airport taxi counter to an average area, $36 for a mid-level day per person without accommodation, and $63 for the Phi Phi day tour. A 125 cc scooter was $9 a day.
All 22 island series reached the minimum sample of five observations in सितंबर 2026, so every row in the table below carries a median.
The cheapest area for a 4-star night in सितंबर 2026 was पटोंग at $42 (n = 10), the dearest माई खाओ at $231 (n = 15) — a spread of 5.5× across 15 areas of one island. The gap is the single most useful number in the report for anyone choosing where to stay: it is larger than the difference between the low and the high season in almost any one area, so the choice of coast decides the bill more than the choice of month does.
A three-bedroom villa by the month ran from $2,694 in नाई यांग to $4,947 in लायन, with an island median of $3,975 across 125 listings.
No area has a previous observation to compare with in this report, so the table shows levels only. Once a second period exists, the same table will carry a change column for each of the 15 areas.
The dollar bought 32.92 baht at the end of सितंबर 2026; against the baht the Kazakhstani tenge gained the most (+1.7%) and the Russian ruble lost the most (−1.2%). Every price in this report is measured in US dollars, so a visitor paying in another currency should read the exchange table as a second, independent movement on top of the index.
The Ministry of Commerce has not published the Phuket CPI for सितंबर 2026 yet. The most recent month on file is जुलाई 2026: index 103.7 on the 2023 = 100 base, +3.7% year on year against +1.9% nationally. It is shown as context, not as a figure for this period.
Ministry of Tourism and Sports figures for सितंबर 2026 are not published yet — the provincial reports run six to ten weeks behind. The most recent month on file is जुलाई 2026: 11,35,382 visitors, occupancy 74.2%.
Airports of Thailand publishes HKT passenger tables once a year, so सितंबर 2026 is not available. The last month on file is दिसंबर 2025 with 18,37,173 passengers.
The reanalysis for सितंबर 2026 is not complete yet. The last full month on file is अगस्त 2026: 108 mm of rain against a normal of 270 mm (−60.0%), 21 rain days, 304 sunshine hours and 18 rough-sea days.
No dated rule change — visa, entry fee or transport tariff — is recorded in the dataset for सितंबर 2026. This section stays empty rather than repeating news: a rule appears here only when a dated fact for it exists in the data behind the site.
How to read the report: prices are medians in US dollars, not averages, so one very expensive property cannot pull a figure up; "P25–P75" is the middle half of the observations, the honest way to describe a market that has no single price; "n" is how many observations the median rests on. Hotels are priced per night for a stay thirty days ahead, villas per month for a thirty-night stay, transfers per car unless the segment says per person, and a day of living excludes accommodation. The full protocol, including what is excluded and why, is on the methodology page; every external source with its licence is on the sources page.
This snapshot was built on 8 सितंबर 2026 from data that already existed on that date and is not edited afterwards. If a source later revises a figure, the revision appears in the next report rather than silently changing this one — that is what makes the series comparable at all.
The island median for a 4-star night was $62 across 210 properties, with the middle half of the market between $41 and $134. A 3-star night was $34 and a 5-star night $141. This is the first period of the index, so there is no change against an earlier month yet.
पटोंग, at $42 for a 4-star night (n = 10); the dearest was माई खाओ at $231, 5.5× more. For a villa by the month the cheapest area was नाई यांग at $2,694.
Neither can be said yet: सितंबर 2026 is the first period the index measured, so there is no earlier period to compare with. Every figure in this report is a level. The next report carries the first real change columns.
From the Phuket Travel Price Index itself — medians of observations collected on fixed dates for every area and segment, published with sample sizes, plus four public datasets used as context: Trade Policy and Strategy Office, Ministry of Commerce (Thailand); Ministry of Tourism and Sports, Thailand; Airports of Thailand; Open-Meteo (ERA5), 2015–2026. Nothing in this report is estimated, modelled or filled in from a neighbouring area: a period without an observation shows an em-dash. The snapshot behind the page was built on 8 सितंबर 2026.
