Officially, this time is considered the rainy season, but this does not mean that it rains all the time. It may or may not rain just during the period that you will be there, and then they can charge for 2 days in a row. Here's how lucky. I was in Thailand three times in August (also a rainy season) and three times there was a different weather and a different amount and nature of rain. But our stay was great anyway.

I just don’t want to fly 10-12 hours and stay in a hotel or by the sea under an umbrella, especially with a child she is 9 years old

No, you definitely don't have to sit under an umbrella all the time :) or in a hotel. Rain is more common at night. Sometimes you hear it, you hear it raining from a bucket, maybe with a thunderstorm, you think - well, our tomorrow's excursion is gone - and in the morning you get up you go out onto the balcony - there is not a single cloud in the sky, the birds are singing and everything has dried up for a long time.

there are hotels where everything is incl. Or do you have to take breakfast dinner

When I was preparing for trips, I always looked through the reviews exactly at the time when I was going to fly, only in different years. The result is a very optimistic picture.
The presence of rain is not particularly important. Another thing is the choice of the beach in June. At this time, the sea is already becoming restless, for example, in August we lived in a Karon beach hotel - we could not swim because of the high waves.

there are hotels where all inclusive, but why do you need them? It is enough to have breakfast at the hotel, everything else can be done in numerous cafes and restaurants, you can dine with fruit, in shops (minimarkets) like "7-11" or Family Mart they sell excellent yogurts, any milk, buns, cookies, etc. It's actually easy to navigate there. And your girl is already big, it’s easy to walk with her

Thank you

The main ambush is not rain. In Phuket in the summer you will not be able to swim normally - a storm, strong reverse currents on the beaches. Those beaches that do not have such a problem are very small, with kilometer low tides in the daytime. Yes, and the rains, to be honest, are also especially pleasant - you can’t sit out under an umbrella on the beach, there are real tropical downpours with squalls, everything gets wet to the skin and is covered with sand.
Why go to Phuket in summer? This is the best time for Koh Samui, Koh Tao, Koh Phangan.
Z.Y. There are one or two all-inclusive hotels in Phuket, and there seem to be none elsewhere. I never met breakfast / dinner, usually only breakfast at the hotel.

Koh Samui, Tao, Koh Phangan THIS WHERE, we never went to Asia with a child

This is also Thailand, but on a different coast. Koh Samui is the largest of these three islands, with infrastructure, a lot of good hotels, people with children go there with pleasure. I have been to Koh Samui 4 times, to Phuket - one and will not go again, it's getting worse. Phuket is chosen because of the greater number of excursions and the possible direct flight. You have to fly to Koh Samui via Bangkok, direct flights are very rare. The season on Koh Samui is in summer - there is no rain, the sea is calm, lots of fruit. And the island is not so trampled in comparison with Phuket.

If you still decide to fly to Phuket, then look at Kata Beach, more precisely the north of the beach. There are smaller waves due to the island that serves as a breakwater. And the rains are an unpredictable thing. There were only one rain in 2 weeks in April. in December it was every day, but not long.

It is very important to choose the right beach, Karon and Surin beaches are usually closed for swimming at this time. The weather is changeable, intermittent rains are possible, but the probability that you will fall on the monsoon is not great.
I live in Phuket, if anything - write closer to the flight, I'll tell you how it is here
