Try it free →A quiet family beach between Patong and Surin — the 'Millionaire's Mile' headland, Cafe del Mar and a calmer, village pace minutes from the action.
Kamala is a calmer, family-oriented beach village tucked between busy Patong to the south and upscale Surin and Bang Tao to the north. Its long, gently curving bay, low-key village and the dramatic headland known as Millionaire's Mile — lined with luxury villas — give it a quieter, more residential character while keeping Patong's malls and nightlife only 10-15 minutes away.
For renters it strikes a middle ground: more relaxed and family-friendly than Patong, more affordable than Surin or Bang Tao, with a mix of beach-area condos, apartments and hillside sea-view homes. Cafe del Mar and a few beach clubs add some polish, while the village keeps everyday costs sensible.

Kamala is well placed on the northwest coast — about 30 minutes from the airport, 10-15 minutes from Patong's malls and nightlife and a similar hop to Surin and Bang Tao. As with the rest of Phuket there is no rail, so a scooter or car makes the hilly coast road easy.

Yes — Kamala is one of Phuket's calmer, family-friendly beaches, with a relaxed village, a gentle bay and good access to international schools in Kathu and the northwest, while Patong's amenities stay just 10-15 minutes away.
Indicative long-term condo rents are about THB 15,000-28,000 for a studio, THB 22,000-45,000 for a one-bedroom and THB 40,000-80,000 for a two-bedroom, with sea-view and Millionaire's Mile properties higher.
It's the local nickname for the luxury-villa headland between Kamala and Surin, where high-end homes line the cliffs with panoramic sea views — some of Phuket's most expensive residential real estate.
About 30 minutes by road on the northwest coast — closer than the southern beaches and convenient to both Patong and the Bang Tao/Surin luxury hubs.
