Kamala (กมลา) is on the west coast of Phuket, just to the north of Patong, and immediately south of Surin Beach. Kamala is one of the quieter areas on Phuket's famed west coast. Although the southern end of the beach can get busy in the high season, the northern end is peaceful all year round.
Breakfast place. The bakery has good breakfast options and tasty breads. Clean and with air-con. Not that cheap, and will charge 5 baht extra for a little jam. Not as pleasant as Rockfish, but the food is more substantial.
One Thai place on the beach that seems to get repeat visits from the locals who run the hotels. Absolutely worth it if you want quality, clean, and authentic Thai food at excellent prices (sometimes hard to find in Phuket). The chef, Wichet, a friendly English-fluent former cook at the Four Seasons is approachable and gregarious. His Thai dishes are packed with local herbs and spices, and all made fresh. Get the pomelo salad, the coconut chicken soup, and anything you want in his special red curry/tamarind sauce. Right on the water, he can organize a romantic dinner in advance.
On the beach. Includes breakfast (ham & eggs, toast, coffee, tea, fruit).
On the beach with one and two bedroom apartments, breakfast not included, up to 5 persons per apartment.
On the beach, very nice, clean rooms, friendly staff, and is affordable.
