# Monthly Car Rental in Nai Thon, Phuket Page URL: https://kolesio.com/en/cars/monthly-car-rental-nai-thon/ A monthly car rental in Nai Thon is one total for the whole period, agreed in chat, with the car delivered to your hotel or villa in the bay and a refundable deposit that depends on the model. Nai Thon is a quiet bay closed in by hills, with few facilities of its own, so for a month the car is the link to everything else: Thalang town, with its supermarkets and fuel, is about 13 minutes away by the OSRM route planner, and Phuket Airport about 11. The table on this page shows the 30-day price of each model from our live search. **A week from 5 145 ฿ total** — economy car 735 ฿/day · crossover from 9 555 ฿ · refundable deposit from 5 000 ฿ · live search, 7 days from 2 November, pick-up in Patong.

Send the dates and the address, and one total for the month is fixed in chat before anything is booked. The car is brought to your hotel or villa in the bay at the hour you agree, or meets you at airport arrivals, which is close by. Delivery is counted separately, and the refundable deposit depends on the model; the table on this page lists it next to each car. First-class commercial insurance is included for the drivers named in the agreement, each with a passport, a national licence card and an International Driving Permit. On a term this long the scheduled servicing is ours. ## Why a month in Nai Thon is a month with a car Getting into or out of Nai Thon without a car is close to impossible. The bay sits between two headlands, the beach has limited facilities even at the height of the season, and the nearest petrol stations are at Thalang and on the main highway. By the OSRM route planner, Phuket Airport is about 8.2 km and 11 minutes away, Boat Avenue in Cherng Talay and Thalang town about 13 minutes each, Patong about 36 minutes and Phuket Old Town about 37. Everyday supplies come from Thalang, inland, where there are supermarkets, pharmacies and fuel. Make that a weekly run rather than daily fragments, because each trip goes over the hill in both directions. ## The hill road, every day for a month The approach from north and south climbs over the headlands through tight bends with a drop on one side, and it is surfaced the whole way. Oncoming traffic includes vans and delivery trucks that use the whole of their lane and a little of yours. Brake before the bend rather than in it: on a road that falls away to the outside, braking mid-bend pushes the car wide at exactly the wrong moment. In the wet the same corners collect mud and grit washed off the slope and stay slick long after the rain stops. Do not stop on the hill road for the view; use the marked pull-in above the bay on the road towards Bang Tao. After dark, take the bends slower than by day and keep well to your side: the headlights of an oncoming van appear late on this road. ## Which car for a month in Nai Thon? Ground clearance is not the issue here, since the road is surfaced. What matters over a month is a car that stops well on repeated short descents and is not overloaded, so any economy car in good order copes, and the brakes are worth a firm test on a quiet stretch on the first day. For a group of friends staying in the bay, who will drive every day to beaches, restaurants and the shops in Thalang, one larger car is simpler than two small ones, and parking two cars in Nai Thon is a job of its own. ## Parking in the bay Parking is a narrow strip along the beach road plus a few small areas by the cafés. Spaces are limited, but so are visitors, so it gets tight only on weekends at the height of the season. The strip is exposed, and a car left on it all afternoon turns into an oven, which is worth avoiding when the drive home involves a hill and a set of bends. Over a month, the hotel's or villa's own parking is the place for the car between trips. ## Beaches either side of the bay Nai Thon sits on the northern road between Layan and Nai Yang. Layan is the next beach south, about 6 km and ten minutes away, and its villas sit on short, steep driveways where an SUV is easier. The drives over the headlands are worth doing for their own sake, and a month gives time to do them in good light. Stop only at the marked viewpoint above the bay on the road towards Bang Tao, never on the edge of the hill road. ## Ending the month The airport is close, so most monthly rentals here end at the terminal on the day you fly. The drive out starts with the hill road, and that is not a stretch to hurry on a morning with a plane to catch. Bring the car back with the same fuel level as at delivery, filled at Thalang or on the highway. It is checked against the handover photos; a cash deposit comes back at that inspection, and a hold on a card is released by the bank, which can take several days. ## FAQ ### Can I rent a car in Nai Thon for a month? Yes. Send the dates and the address in chat; one total for the month is fixed before booking, and the car is delivered to your hotel or villa in the bay. ### How far is Nai Thon from Phuket Airport? About 8.2 km and 11 minutes by the OSRM route planner, starting with the hill road over the headland. ### Where is the nearest fuel station to Nai Thon? At Thalang or on the main highway, outside the bay. Arrive with a full tank and fill up on the weekly run to Thalang. ### Is the road to Nai Thon difficult for a month of daily driving?
