How much do digital nomad apartments cost in Phuket?

Across the 336 Phuket listings we track, monthly rent ranges from $362 to $39,687, with a median of $1,353. 77% of the listings shown are hosted by top-rated hosts.

Are there stays with dedicated workspaces in Phuket?

Yes, 22 of the 41 listings we examined show a real ergonomic office chair in their photos. We have not examined every listing yet.

How do you know all this about Phuket?

We keep a curated set of 336 stays in Phuket and re-check them over time, rather than repeating whatever a booking site happens to show today. Connection speeds are what each place and its guests report, 47 of the 171 independently measured, so read them as indicative rather than lab-tested. 165 of the 336 carry no reading at all, and unmeasured is not the same as slow. Prices are the advertised monthly rate, before any discount a host offers. Reviews are counted rather than summarised, and quotes appear word for word, attributed to a stay and a date rather than to a person. Every figure here was computed on 7 September 2026.

Stays in Phuket, Thailand

We track 336 listings in Phuket. 171 have a measured Wi-Fi speed (median 300 Mbps; 47 of those are Airbnb's own speed test), and 22 of the 41 we ran through the chair detector show a real office chair.

What guests say about Phuket

Reproduced word for word, and only where a guest was writing about the place rather than the flat.

What they like about Phuket

Nearby

“There are many restaurants, coffee shops, and massage places in the area, and a Muay Thai gym just a 4-minute walk away.”

Stay in Karon January 2026

Getting around

“Lots of places that rent motorbikes nearby, and free parking for motorbikes, had no issues finding a spot in high season.”

The listing February 2026

Noise

“It’s down a side street from the main road in rawai and therefore it is quiet with lots of nice trees and flowers around the street.”

Stay in Rawai April 2026

What they warn about Phuket

“But the location is far from all beaches and u will spend a lot on taxis or u have to rent a bike.”

Stay in Tambon Talat Yai February 2026

Value

“if you're staying for longer than few days it's important to rent a moto at least as local transportation can be a bit pricey.”

Stay in Wichit April 2025

Stairs & hills

“What we did not immediately realize is that the condominium is up on a very steep hill with 120+ steps to get up to the condo.”

Stay in Karon January 2025

Guest reviews, never edited and never paraphrased. We hold no reviewer names, so a quote is attributed to a place and a date rather than to a person.
