As you'll soon learn it isn't a matter of how well you swim but it is a matter of how comfortable you are in the water. So, no, not being a great swimmer isn't going to be a problem.

As an instructor for many years I will remind you of one thing........when your in water over your head you need to have at min some swimming skills. If you a bad swimmer that is fine but not a swimmer at all that is a problem.

Be safe!

Have fun in Thailand. You may want to use Scuba Cat as your jump off point in Phuket. They will steer you in the right direction.
