Central Phuket Mall (Festival and Floresta), Phuket Town

7° 53.6′ N · 98° 22.1′ E

Phuket's largest shopping mall, two linked buildings (Festival and Floresta) on the bypass just west of Phuket Town. Its food hall has the island's widest range of Western and imported groceries, and two hypermarkets sit next door.

Practical

Coordinate is Central Festival (OpenStreetMap node); Central Phuket's own map node is at 7.8912 N, 98.3669 E. Open daily 10am-10pm, 74-75 Moo 5, Vichit, call centre 076 601 222 (Central Phuket site). Wikivoyage says the food section carries 'a large variety of Western products' but costs more than Big C or Lotus's. Big C stores sit right across the road (OSM, 7.8958 N, 98.3670 E) and Makro Phuket is a few hundred metres north-west (see its entry), so one taxi run covers imported goods, everyday staples and bulk. From Royal Phuket Marina or Boat Lagoon it is about 10 km by road; from Chalong about 9 km. Use Grab or a taxi for loaded trolleys. Check the online store directory for pharmacy, bank and phone-shop units.
