OUTLOOK
We expect to see an improvement of hotel
performance in Phuket in 2015. However, there
are some challenges facing the market. The
Phuket hotel market has become increasingly
dependent on the Chinese market which will
create challenges with danger of hotels being
dominated by a single nationality of guests
deterring other nationality guests.
New supply and competition from other West
Coast destinations such as Khao Lak will
possibly restrict growth in Phuket occupancy and
potential for room rate growth.
Q4 2014 CBRE Research
Direct international flights to Phuket helped
insulate the destination from the negative
effect of unrest in Bangkok. The growth in the
number was driven by an increase in number
of East Asian tourist arrivals by 11.5% Y-o-Y.
The European market has been affected
negatively mainly due to 20% depreciation of
Euro
and
50%
depreciation
of
Rouble,
resulting in a decrease in the number of
European tourists by 7.2% Y-o-Y.
The key highlight of the quarter was the rapid
increase in Chinese arrivals. Chinese direct
arrival’s increased by 25% Y-o-Y and China is
now
Phuket’s
biggest
feeder
market
accounting for 20% of total direct arrivals. We
expect to see a continued increase in tourist
arrivals especially from China which should
result in improved hotel performance.
