Furnished Apartments for Rent in Rawai
Rawai (ราไวย์) is Phuket's most established long-stay expat neighbourhood, on the island's quieter southern tip. A large resident community of remote workers and retirees, Nai Harn and Rawai beaches a few minutes away, and pool villas and furnished condos that rent for far less than the west-coast resort strip. Furnished studios run 10,000–18,000 THB/month; one- to two-bed units 18,000–30,000 THB. There is no rail on Phuket — most residents get around by scooter or car, with central Phuket Town about 30 minutes north.

Renting in Rawai — frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to rent a furnished apartment in Rawai, Phuket?
Furnished long-stay rentals in Rawai typically range 10,000–30,000 THB/month. Studios and one-bedroom units sit at the lower end of that range, while larger or premium condos reach the top. Every ElefyMove listing shows its full monthly price up front, and the one-time booking fee is itemised in your payment breakdown before you confirm.
How do you get around Rawai?
Scooter/car; ~30 min to Phuket Town, ~45 min to the airport. That makes Rawai a practical base for long-stay tenants who want easy access around Phuket.
Can I rent in Rawai month to month instead of signing a one-year lease?
Yes. ElefyMove lists furnished Rawai apartments and condos for flexible tenancies from 1 to 12 months. Payments are processed by Stripe (cards and Thai PromptPay QR) with PayPal as a secondary option, with ElefyMove acting as the landlord's payment collection agent, and the security deposit is held by the landlord and returned at move-out.
Are Rawai listings on ElefyMove verified?
Landlords complete identity verification before they can list, and tenants verify their identity before booking, so both sides know who they are dealing with. Individual listings can additionally carry a Verified badge once ElefyMove has checked them — look for that badge, as it is not on every listing. ElefyMove does not physically inspect properties, so arrange a viewing or ask the landlord for a video walkthrough before you commit.
