Transfers - to Kata Beach

Getting to and from Orchidacea Resort with our Shuttle Service

We offer a shuttle service — this is the easiest, most dependable way to get to and from Kata Beach and the Orchidacea Resort. The ride from Phuket International Airport (HKT) to Kata Beach (at the other end of the island) is about 45 minutes. The Orchidacea Airport Shuttle rates are as follows:

• THB 900 Thai Baht per car - one way for 1 - 3 persons
• THB 1,400 Thai Baht per minivan - one way for 4 - 5 persons
• 6 or more persons - THB 280 Thai Baht per person
• Before 6am and after 8pm - off-hours time-supplement of THB 200 per car and way applies

Getting to and from Orchidacea Resort via airport taxi, meter taxi or tuk-tuk

Airport Taxi

As soon as you pick-up your luggage and pass through customs, the "taunts" for the airport taxi's will be there. Most of the time, they are fairly aggressive — there is no way that you can miss them. Their price: THB 600-800 each way per car (not per person).

Meter Taxi

Exit the airport and walk to the right a few meters and you will quickly see the Meter Taxi stand. If you can get the driver to actually turn on the meter, this is a great deal. Note that there are only 6-5 meter taxis on Phuket Island so fairly often, there is simply not one available.

Tuk-Tuk

You will see the little red (and sometimes yellow) tuk-tuk's all over the island. They are not available at the airport. Though you may of course find a tuk-tuk driver to take you to the airport from Kata Beach. Note that tuk-tuk's are not air-conditioned and they are slower than a car or mini-van. An hour in a tuk-tuk on a hot day is not the way to wrap-up your holiday. That said, tuk-tuk can be a great way to get around.
