One Month on Fitness Street: What Does It Actually Cost?

Three budgets for low and high season

The examples cover 30 nights and 30 food days for one person, in Thai baht. A 30-night stay spans parts of 31 calendar days, so allow for any extra arrival/departure meals, training or mobile data.

What the budgets include: Budget and Comfortable use Lions’ ฿9,000 Muay Thai group-class pass; Higher-spend uses Tiger’s ฿14,445 Muay Thai package plus eight private sessions on a separate line. Both membership prices include VAT. The spending styles differ in rooms, food and extras, not coaching quality. All allow for gym trials. Rent uses the reader reports below, which we haven’t independently verified; utilities and most living costs are estimates.

Why do Budget and Comfortable stay the same across seasons? Their rent reports don’t specify a season. Replace that allowance with your own quote. Higher-spend uses ฿30,000 / ฿45,000 for a room and ฿5,000 / ฿7,500 for an ADV/PCX; the ฿15,000 room increase is illustrative. The other styles assume walking and occasional rides. Gym, food and laundry costs stay constant. December–January holidays need a quote for your exact dates.

Start with Comfortable if you don’t have quotes yet. Budget needs a room at the assumed price and cheaper food choices. Both assume you can walk to training; add daily rides if you stay farther away.

Build your own 30-night budget

Choose a spending style and season, then replace the allowances with your actual quotes. You can also load a published Muay Thai membership price. Enter final payable prices. Set any included or unwanted expense to zero. Only meals and drinks are multiplied by 30; every other cost is for the whole stay. Booking training and a room together? See packages and how to budget for them before entering separate room and gym costs.

Accommodation: compare rent, kitchen access and the full bill

The calculator uses May–October for low season and November–April for high season, following Unit 27. Hotels may use different periods or split a stay between rates.

Four user-reported monthly rent examples

A reader supplied these examples on 13 October 2026. We haven’t independently verified them, and the season, exact stay length, availability and deposits are unknown. Request a full quote for your own dates.

Budget uses the reported ฿9,000 room as an allowance. Comfortable uses ฿14,500, the midpoint of the ฿13,000–16,000 reported room range; it isn’t a quote for a specific room or a room with a private kitchen. Both keep the same rent across seasons and add a ฿2,000 utilities reserve because inclusion is unconfirmed. Replace these estimates with the charges in your booking. Higher-spend retains its illustrative ฿30,000 / ฿45,000 room allowances plus ฿2,500 utilities.

Want a kitchen? The reported ฿16,000 house is a separate option. With Comfortable’s other inputs unchanged, replacing its ฿14,500 rent with ฿16,000 adds ฿1,500 spending, or ฿1,650 including 10% contingency. Keep utilities separate. Cooking may change your food spending, but do not deduct restaurant costs until you have allowed for groceries, cooking supplies and any separately charged gas. If there’s no private kitchen, ask about shared cooking facilities.

Published hotel and gym-room references

Compare the walking route, taxes and utilities alongside rent. These examples don’t claim to be the cheapest rooms available.

Choose the room around your daily routine

Also ask Six Pack Cottage and Floraville for a 30-night quote. Check the route to your gym, meals and laundry: daily rides can cancel out a lower rent.

Check kitchen access, a fridge, space to dry kit and Wi-Fi if you work remotely. Ask for the full-stay price and extension terms before booking a few trial nights.

Two concrete examples of seasonal pricing

Chalong Princess’s own rate card, at a Soi Ta-eid address, lists the same Deluxe Pool Villa at ฿1,600 per night in low season (1 May–31 October), ฿2,000 in high season (1 November–19 December and 21 January–30 April), and ฿2,500 in peak season (20 December–20 January). Tax and service are included. The rate card has no publication date. It does not list separate 2026/27 offers.

At those nightly rates, 30 nights entirely within each period would calculate to ฿48,000 / ฿60,000 / ฿75,000 for the room alone. These totals multiply the nightly rate; they don’t include a monthly discount. High is 25% above low; peak is 56% above low for this one room type. A ฿45,000 room budget wouldn’t cover those rates.

The Unit 27 package below provides a second seasonal example: its seven-night high-season starting price is ฿4,200 above low season, about 14.5%. That difference applies to the whole seven-night package, so it can’t be used as a monthly room surcharge.

Get the 30-night total in writing

Staying for two weeks? Get a separate 14- or 15-night quote. Monthly discounts may require a longer stay; check cancellation and extension terms before comparing bookings.

Get the dates, room category, occupancy, tax, utilities, cleaning and linen frequency, deposit and cancellation terms in writing. Four weeks is only 28 nights. Count mandatory cleaning once, and add utilities only when excluded from the quote. For December–January, secure the room before committing to a gym membership.

Some gyms bundle training and accommodation

Compare a training + accommodation package with booking separately. Tiger and nearby Yak Yai offer Muay Thai stays; some other gyms list rooms separately. Match the dates, room standard and training access. General fitness stays are listed as alternatives below.

Other Muay Thai gyms: rooms and packages

A training “package” can mean a class pass with no room. Here are the room options listed by the other gyms.

Singha and KRU: room-and-training package prices are not listed here. Singha’s saved website was parked, and KRU’s booking page was unavailable when checked.

Low versus high season: the additional Muay Thai package sources above do not list monthly prices by season. A quote for your exact dates is needed to compare a package with the low- or high-season budget.

Compare the full month, including what is left to pay

Get the actual property name and map pin. Tiger’s accommodation information includes camp and nearby partner rooms. Your room may be outside the camp. Check the route from the allocated building to your class, meals and laundry, and ask whether you can remain in the same room if you extend.

• Match the length and season. Seven nights, four weeks and 30 nights are different stays. Ask about extra nights, high-season or holiday supplements, occupancy and the actual room you will receive.
• Count each inclusion once. Replace separate room and gym costs with the package total. Keep food, utilities, laundry, airport trips, other-gym trials and recovery spending wherever they are not covered.
• Check how food works. Tiger’s prepaid meal card has a spending limit. The package price table does not state its credit or top-up rules. Keep an allowance for meals and drinks bought elsewhere.
• Choose the gym before a long commitment. If you want to try several gyms first, check the package’s cancellation and change terms before paying. Ask whether a short initial stay can be extended at the monthly rate; do not assume trial payments are credited.

Using the calculator: choose your season and spending style first. For a quoted 30-night package, enter its entire final price in Accommodation and set Muay Thai membership to zero. Enter only additional food and drinks, and set utilities or other included items to zero only when the quote covers them. Changing season preserves the package amount you entered; loading a spending-style preset resets it. The calculator then adds contingency and shows refundable deposits separately.

For more structured stays, see our Phuket fitness-retreat guide.

Muay Thai: compare the classes included in the pass

Try two or three Muay Thai gyms before committing to a month

Keep your first few days flexible. Pay for a class at two or three Muay Thai gyms, then choose the coaching, class size, atmosphere and timetable that suit you. Notice how much correction you receive, how beginners are grouped, and whether the pace and sparring expectations fit your experience. Trial the session time you would actually attend.

For a month-long stay, we recommend choosing a regular training base after your trial classes, with occasional drop-ins elsewhere if you want variety. Pick somewhere you can comfortably reach at your usual training time. Yak Yai is another nearby option, about 500 metres from Fitness Street according to its own site; factor that route into your choice of accommodation.

What this line pays for: trial classes are paid single sessions before you choose your main gym. Later drop-ins are occasional sessions at another Muay Thai gym after you have bought your membership. Regular classes at your main gym are already covered by the membership line; private lessons belong under Private Muay Thai coaching.

• Budget and Comfortable: ฿1,500. One Muay Thai class at Lions (฿450), Apollo (฿500) and Rattachai (฿500) totals ฿1,450; we round up to ฿1,500. Rattachai adds 3% for card payment, and Apollo’s tax treatment is unstated. Equipment-hire charges are not listed here.
• Higher-spend: ฿6,000. The same ฿1,500 trial allowance plus nine later drop-ins × an assumed ฿500 = ฿4,500. This is an optional plan for visiting several Muay Thai gyms, not a requirement or a quoted multi-gym pass. Replace the visit count and rate with your choices.
• Already know your gym? Set this line to zero if you do no paid trials or outside classes. Or keep only the visits you intend to make. Three trial sessions are not three full-day passes.

We keep a full monthly membership after the trials as a conservative allowance. For a 30-night trip, compare passes covering the days remaining, and only deduct trial payments if the gym confirms they count toward your membership.

You can find more details and timetables in our Fitness Street place listings. The table covers nine gyms with published Muay Thai prices, including nearby Eagle, Phuket Fight Club and Yak Yai, checked on 18 October 2026. Dragon, Singha and KRU still need current monthly quotes. Ali’s boxing memberships are outside this Muay Thai comparison.

Compare what you’ll use: one daily Muay Thai session, two sessions and training plus weights are different passes. Check activation, expiry and session limits against your dates; a monthly pass doesn’t promise classes every day.

For extra weights sessions, check what your Muay Thai pass includes before buying another membership. Add only the visits you plan to use.

Do not price unused classes as savings. Ask whether passes can be frozen, extended, refunded or transferred; do not assume spare credits can be sold or shared. For a fitness-focused trip, our CrossFit, HYROX and HIIT guide compares class packs with realistic attendance. Replace the calculator’s main Muay Thai membership with your chosen fitness pass if that is your main training.

Gyms to contact for a current quote

• Dragon Muaythai: its website was unavailable during our September check. A trainer’s site describes accommodation; ask the gym for a monthly training or room-and-training quote. See the package comparison.
• Phuket Singha: its website displayed a parked page during our September check. Current training and accommodation prices are not listed here.

During September research, KRU’s saved booking app failed to load. That doesn’t tell us whether the gym is open; contact it for current prices.

When a second Muay Thai gym changes the budget

Eight extra Apollo group classes at ฿500 add ฿4,000 before separate fees. Enter them under trials and drop-ins, or compare a class pack. Weights-only and boxing passes don’t replace the Muay Thai membership budgeted here.

Food costs on the Soi

Menu photos from 15 Fitness Street food listings range from ฿70 chicken and rice to café meals. The costed days below show how those choices add up; check prices when you arrive.

Photos reviewed 19 September 2026. Ali’s BBQ, Latte Caffè, Pure Prep and Trooper Eats show menu verification dated 19 August 2026; the others are undated. Links open the source photos.

Breakfasts, rice dishes and café meals

Water, coffee and protein shakes: what the allowance buys

For everyday planning, local estimates supplied to MyFitMate are ฿30 for a 7-Eleven Americano, ฿50–80 for a café Americano, and protein shakes from ฿100. Use these as estimates; size, ingredients and extra protein affect the price.

Adjust for your usual drinks and water/refill costs; ฿20 is only an allowance. A ฿100 shake on ten days adds ฿1,000/month, or ฿3,000/month if bought daily. Choosing ฿150 instead adds ฿1,500 over 30 days. If you bring powder, count its cost instead of bought shakes.

Three costed days using those menus

The calculator allows ฿350 / ฿500 / ฿750 for food and ฿50 / ฿180 / ฿250 for drinks. Named dishes below use photographed prices; extras and drinks are allowances. Adjust portions and meal counts for your training.

The first two leave only ฿25 for extra food. Add more for snacks or larger meals. Another ฿100 daily adds ฿3,000 per month, or ฿3,300 including the 10% contingency.

Low versus high season: the menu photos don’t list seasonal prices, so the food allowances stay the same across seasons. Check menus when you arrive.

Browse the linked menu pages to swap dishes, or compare convenient options in our ready-meal and protein-drink guides.

Laundry, transport and other costs

• Utilities — if charged separately: Budget and Comfortable reserve ฿2,000; Higher-spend reserves ฿2,500. These are estimates for electricity and water; replace them with the charges for your room. The two unnamed rentals report electricity at ฿7 per billing unit, but the unit has not been verified. Ask the landlord what one unit means, how meter readings are recorded and whether water has a separate charge. Calculate the electricity bill as the change in meter units × the confirmed rate, then add any separate water charge. Ask for a comparable occupied-month bill; air-conditioning habits affect usage. Set utilities to zero only when your quote includes them.
• SIM and mobile data: all examples allow ฿1,200, rounding up AIS’s published ฿1,199 30-day tourist plan, checked 13 October 2026. This is one reference, not the cheapest plan. Replace it with your chosen data allowance, speed and final price. Check when the plan activates and whether it lasts through departure; a 30-night stay may need more than 30 days of service.
• Paid cleaning: there is no separate default cleaning charge. If your booking requires a cleaning fee, count it once in accommodation or under Toiletries, outings & other costs. Add optional housekeeping there only if you choose it; do not add a fee for cleaning already included in the room price.
• Laundry: allow ฿600–1,000 a month for washing and drying training clothes, based on the local estimate supplied to MyFitMate. Our examples use ฿600 / ฿800 / ฿1,000. For a drop-off service, multiply expected kilograms by the shop’s rate and check collection time. For self-service, count wash cycles, detergent and drying separately; a wash-only price is not the full cost unless you air-dry your clothes.
• Airport Grab: use about ฿800 each way between the airport and Fitness Street, or ฿1,600 for arrival and departure. This is a local estimate; check the app quote for your pickup time and vehicle. Local rides, fuel and scooter rental are separate; see the breakdown below.
• Scooters: a monthly ADV/PCX rental is about ฿5,000 in low season and ฿7,000–7,500 in high season, using the supplied local estimates. The higher-spend example uses ฿5,000 / ฿7,500; the other examples enter zero. Rental is a separate calculator line, with fuel under local rides & scooter fuel. Keep any refundable rental deposit separate.
• Recovery: local massage prices start around ฿300 per visit. Comfortable budgets four visits at ฿300 (฿1,200); Higher-spend allows eight (฿2,400). Treatment and duration affect the price. These examples use a starting rate, rather than a named-shop package. Budget enters zero; add visits if you want them.
• Gear and small purchases: the budget example assumes you arrive equipped. The other allowances cover some new items, not a complete premium kit. Check which gloves, wraps and other equipment your classes require, what you already own, and whether trial equipment is included or rented. Insee lists ฿50 per session for gloves and separately ฿50 for shin guards: 20 glove rentals would add ฿1,000 before contingency. Put hire under other costs, new purchases under gear, and allow for personal purchases such as haircuts or supplements.

A smaller scooter can cost less than an ADV/PCX

Smaller bikes can cost less than the ADV/PCX used in our higher-spend example. The comparison below uses Rent Motorbike Phuket’s published monthly rates, rechecked 13 October 2026. Confirm the operator’s season dates and the final quote; its seasons may use different dates from our calculator.

Use the rental company’s season dates and your final quote; enter fuel separately. Only ride with the experience, appropriate licence and insurance. Budget and Comfortable assume walking.

Why local rides are ฿1,000 / ฿2,000 / ฿1,000

This line covers travel around Phuket and fuel for a rented scooter. Airport transfers and the scooter rental itself have separate rows. The examples assume you walk to daily Muay Thai training.

฿250 is an assumed fare. Check both directions in the app and allow more for long or frequent trips. Replace scooter fuel with expected usage. If you walk everywhere, enter zero.

Compare Grab and Bolt for the same journey and vehicle type, including pickup time; neither should be assumed cheapest for every trip. For airport pickup, use your accommodation’s exact map pin and the name Soi Ta-iad, Chalong. Budget off-street gyms, recovery visits and beach outings as return journeys.

For a published recovery reference, Regen Spa lists a ฿450 day pass, ฿1,500 week pass and ฿3,200 month pass. These are access-pass prices. Massage prices and extra fees are not listed here. Four day passes would be ฿1,800, separate from any massages you buy.

Keep nights out, tours and major purchases visible under “other costs”. The contingency is for variation and surprises, not a substitute for expenses you already know you will incur.

What to have available when you arrive

Keep refundable deposits on top of spending. A booking payment credited to your room bill is already part of accommodation; don’t add it twice.

For the low-season comfortable example, planned spending is ฿56,700. The 10% contingency adds ฿5,670. With an illustrative ฿5,000 refundable deposit, have ฿67,370 available for the local portion of the trip. Your actual deposit may be zero or much higher. Add flights, insurance and any entry or visa expenses separately.

Separate prepaid bills, check-in payments and later spending. Ask about payment methods; you don’t need the whole budget in cash. Add bank, ATM, conversion and transfer fees under other costs. Insee specifies cash-only payment.

Get an insurance quote for your activities: Muay Thai classes, private sessions, sparring or competition, and scooter use if relevant. Check exclusions, add-ons, excess and upfront clinic payments. Keep receipts and itemised bills. The calculator’s contingency is not insurance.

For separately budgeted clinic visits or laboratory tests, the Phuket blood-test, TRT and IV-service guide lists provider-published services, dated price references and questions to ask. Request an itemized quote for the care you plan to book.

Keep enough available on arrival for the room balance/deposit, food, water, laundry and trial classes. Walk your daily route before committing to optional spending.

If you have prepaid a training-and-accommodation package, that payment is already part of the trip total. Keep its booking payment separate from any refundable security deposit, and allow for the spending it does not cover.

Common planning questions

Can I do it for less than ฿50,000?

Potentially. A cheaper room or gym, sharing accommodation and fewer paid extras will lower the total. Our low-season budget example is ฿42,790 with contingency, while the high-season version is ฿42,790. You’ll still need to find a room at the budgeted price for your dates.

What changes if two people share?

Start with a room quote for two occupants. Split shared costs such as the room and an airport car; keep each person’s training, food and other individual expenses. Doubling or halving the whole table gives the wrong answer.

Do I need a scooter?

Budget and Comfortable assume you can walk to daily training and buy occasional rides. Higher-spend includes an ADV/PCX rental at the local ฿5,000 low / ฿7,000–7,500 high-season estimates. Smaller scooters can cost less, as shown above. You can add or remove a rental in any example; use your final quote and add fuel separately.
