Considering phuket but want other ideas in the same style
The guys I was with last time who all had lived in Phuket for months/years seemed to prefer Rawai/Nai Harn (2 places pretty close, people don't swim in Rawai beach, there are boats docked instead but Nai Harn got nice beach) area because it was less crowded and easier to live day-to-day life because not that many 'degen' places around.
I also got to know Kata, Karon and Patong areas pretty well. I personally liked Kata-Karon areas the most since it had enough drinking and eating options and enormous beach, like 2km long I think and nice, wide beach but not even close to crazy as Patong.
Patong beach is kind of meh, it's not that wide and there is alot of traffic just next to beach. For partying it's obviously #1, others have maybe bar areas with 10-30 different bars, Patong has probably few hundred if you take into account all the small ones
If I were you I would just stay somewhere for 1-2 weeks and check out all the places by myself, quite easy to drive through Phuket on scooter.
My best experience with Internet was called The Title Resort in Rawai, nothing special but it did the work, although they had some annoying system that I had to ask for new Internet password every day.
