Answer summary

Yes, travelers entering through the Phuket Sandbox program are still required to stay in SHA+ certified hotels. This requirement aims to help hoteliers recover from loss and ensure a standardized level of COVID-19 safety.

You can stay at any hotel, they just have to fulfill the SHA+ requirements to enroll in the program.

By the way, SHA+ is not reserved for Phuket, I know hotels in provinces with no sandbox that are proud to show their SHA+ logo to their guests. Kind of nationwide "covid free" certification.
