Sinbi Muay Thai
Week and month cover two group sessions a day. One a day is 3,000 and 8,000, three months 27,000, a year 85,000. The room rate is low-season twin share per person at Sinbi Apartments, 300 m from the gym, and it includes two group sessions a day.
Suwit Muay Thai
The week is six days, twice a day. Training plus a fan room at the gym for a month is 11,500 and an air-conditioned room by the pool 14,500, with electricity billed by the unit; two meals a day adds 3,300 a month. Private training is sold by the week at 6,000 or the month at 18,000 rather than by the session. The rates page still carries 2015 exchange rates, so check it is current before paying.
Against the country
They quote the same figure on 3 lines: sessions a day, rooms on site and takes beginners.

In their own words
What each camp is
Sinbi Muay Thai
A long-running Rawai camp that stayed Muay Thai only while neighbours diversified into MMA. Reputation is built on Thai trainer quality and pad work rather than facilities. Suits people who want to actually get better at Muay Thai rather than sample several martial arts.

Long-established Chalong camp with a traditional Muay Thai focus and a track record of putting foreign students into local fights. Suits people who want a clear path toward competing rather than a fitness holiday.

What people ask about Sinbi Muay Thai and Suwit Muay Thai
- Is Sinbi Muay Thai or Suwit Muay Thai cheaper?
- Suwit Muay Thai, on the line most trips are booked on. A month of unlimited training is 9,000 baht there against 12,000 baht at Sinbi Muay Thai, a gap of 3,000 baht. They both quote 2 other priced lines, and Suwit Muay Thai is lower on 2. A cheaper month is not a cheaper trip. Food, a room where the camp has none and the flight home all sit outside these figures, and a camp that is 2,000 baht dearer a month is the cheaper of the two the moment it saves you a daily taxi.
- What is the difference between Sinbi Muay Thai and Suwit Muay Thai?
- 3 of the 6 lines both camps publish come out different: a single group session, a week of unlimited training and a month of unlimited training. They match on how many sessions a day run, whether there are rooms on site and whether beginners are taken. Sinbi Muay Thai publishes a private session and a nightly room rate. Suwit Muay Thai publishes none of those. What separates two camps on the mats is the trainer you get put with, and no camp publishes that. Use the lines above to cut the list down, then ask both.
- Is Sinbi Muay Thai or Suwit Muay Thai better for a beginner?
- Both. Sinbi Muay Thai and Suwit Muay Thai each read as a room somebody who has never trained can walk into. That is a call made at a desk from what each camp publishes about who it trains, not a verdict from the mats. A gym built around a fight team will take a beginner's money and leave them holding pads at the back for a month, so ask both how a first session actually runs before you book either.
- Can you stay at Sinbi Muay Thai or Suwit Muay Thai?
- Both. Sinbi Muay Thai and Suwit Muay Thai each say on their own site that you can sleep at the camp. Sinbi Muay Thai prints a nightly rate at 1,100 baht. Staying in means the commute stops being a decision you make twice a day at five in the morning, which matters more than the saving on most trips shorter than a month.
- How many sessions a day do Sinbi Muay Thai and Suwit Muay Thai run?
- The same number. Sinbi Muay Thai and Suwit Muay Thai both run 2 sessions a day. That is how many are on offer and not how many anybody should plan on taking. A timetable says when the door is open; how many times you walk through it is most of the difference between a training holiday and a camp, and a first week of doubles is how people spend a second week injured.
- How far apart are Sinbi Muay Thai and Suwit Muay Thai?
- About 5.7 km in a straight line, measured between the two pins rather than along a road, so a motorbike covers more ground than that and traffic decides the rest. Both camps sit in Phuket. That is a ride rather than a walk, so trying both in one trip means picking a base and paying to cross, or splitting the stay in two.
