The 'best' weather months are Dec/Jan/Feb, but these are the busies and most expensive months. Weather still good in March & April, still high season prices, but less people. Wettest months usually Sept & Oct. But quite honestly any time is a good time to have a holiday on Phuket Island.

Definitely there is with regards to hotel prices. In some cases it can be double the cost for high season compared with prices during the low season. It can be the same for flights. You would be more likely to find cheaper flights during the low season to try and attract visitors. So there can be a very real price difference.

Hotel prices can be half price or less, flight significantly cheaper, maybe a small discount on tours.

But not any difference with eating out, drinks, shopping.
