private, secluded, on the beach, yet in the middle of all nightlife this is one of the few hotels located ON patong beach with comfortable, secluded, and secure rooms. The hotel staff was extremely friendly, and went out of their way to book us a tour of phi phi lae and phi phi don at the last minute. They even allowed us an additional two hours for late checkout. would stay here again even though it's a bit pricey.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : if you book a tour for phi phi lae and phi phi don, take the speedboat tour. What normally takes hours to reach the island by ferry, you can accomplish in 45 minutes, and receive personalized service. Totally worth the 2,650 baht for half day (11:30 - 18:00) and includes hotel transportation, lunch, drinks, and scuba equipment.

great location, great view of the beach
comfortable rooms
nice food
good service
not many discounts for the off season
Staff can be more fluent in English
Bathroom partition must have a lock Phuket Cabana enjoys a wonderful location and treats its guests like royalty. I had a really nice time visiting the beach and appreciated the length to which Cabana had gone to make our trip a great experience. A great place to be, I would recommend Phuket Cabana to anyone who goes to Phuket.

Location was great. The rooms and facilities where very good. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. I like it that eventhough Patong is very commercialised and lively at night, Impiana rooms are still very quiet. They could have their own umbrella and seats by the beach, so guests could enjoy the beachside without having to pay for the seat rental every single time you use it. Our stay with Impiana hotel was really surprising. Given that this hotel is in the busiest part of the beach, I was expecting to have a very noisy environment. However, our room was very pleasant and all the amenities were great. Our room was kept very clean by housekeeping and they replenish our water bottle supply every day. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was great as well, they have lots of choices from local food to western food. The only thing that could be improved are the umbrella/seats by the beachside. The hotel should have their own, so there is no need to pay for the use of the umbrella/seats infront of their hotel.

Large, updated room; Free wireless internet; direct beach access Mosquitoes were thick on the patios and outside areas of restaurants. Great location for night life, shopping and eating. The beach is clean and relatively hassle free here (although the jet ski and para-sail vendors will petition you each time you walk by); the pool is relaxing and the room service and pool side service was good with quick response times. Patong shops and bars are easily accessible, but the hotel is quiet and you would never know the street was so busy at night unless you leave the hotel.
Travel tip : Check out the "Ninth Floor" restaurant; 15 min walk for great food, reasonable prices and excellent views of the area and ocean.

location is fantastic,service is very good,the buffet spreads and the room service menus are excellent way too many mosquitoes !!
airconditioning needs to improve all in all. a great stay..value for money as similar hotels in goa in india would be priced atleast double of what impiana charged.i guess the hotel cant really do much about the mosquitoes...would recommend it..

Large Comfortable Room. Excellent Service Lovely rooms with very friendly service. The restaurant gave excellent quality although a bit overpriced, especially for dinner. The restaurant just next door, the 3 Spices, is owned and run by the Impiana. You can in fact use your room number to sign for the bill. And the food is every bit as good at half the price.
Restaurant Tip : Eat next door!

Breakfast was good and had variety choices. Extraordinary helpful and polite staff at any time and a management that takes care. Lots of complementary like water, tea, coffee, milk. Personalized wash lotion, soap and body balm. Even the low budget room is already a pleasure.
I can say that Impiana Phuket Cabana Resort was suitable for me to stay, I have a very wonderful memory staying there.

Location, location, location. Beachfront bar. Breakfast Rooms are small, dark, badly designed, with no windows. The Impiana is one of the few decent Patong hotels directly on the beach. This is a huge plus if the beach is your reason for vacations. The rooms themselves leave a lot to be desired at this price point, among the highest in Patong. They are small and unusually badly designed. The only way to get light or fresh air is the front glass door. On the plus side, Impiana had the best breakfast buffet we had in Thailand in 30 days. Drinks at sunset on the beach were a real delight.
Restaurant Tip : If you ask the staff for a restuarant they will send you to one of the tourist-oriented, expensive seafood places on their street. You can find better on your own.

Location is amazing, quiet since on the beach yet in the middle of all the action in Patong. Almost nothing to complain, except small pool area and limited number of beach chairs. Need to get there early in the morning to secure a good chair, because guests come there and stake claim for the whole day. This policy should be changed to be fair to all guests, and I already addressed with the hotel. Overall amazing place--one of the few hotels located on the beach in central Patong. I was surprised at how quiet it was throughout the entire hotel, given its central location in Patong. Free internet services throughout, decent spa and boutique feel make this a must-stay in the Patong area. Clientele is mostly older european couples. Will definitely return.
Restaurant Tip : Savoey seafood restaurant is one of the best in Phuket and is just a short walk from the hotel.

Location, staff, Wi Fi internet Hard bed, no privacy in the room, bathroom nos so clean Great location, right in the heart of Patong, but inside the hotel you can barely hear the street noise. One of the few hotels on the beach sand. Food is good, but a little pricey. The Patong beach is crowded, but the sea is great! trasparent and warm. The rooms have no privacy unless you close the curtains. Cleaness was not 100%... we found a plastic sac with some clothes (didn't even wanted to see what it was) behind the sofa, and the bathroom was not so clean.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Go on a tour with Simba Sea Trips. They are awsome!

Good point is that it is on the beach. In patong beach, few hotels is on the beach. There is a pool near beach, and we can relax in sunbed in the hotel seeing the sea. Bad point is that there is a gap between sash and window. Mosquito can easily go into the room. And no mosquito stick in the room.

Perfect location!
Great Privacy.
Great Service.
Good food.
Rooms are a little old compared to the price. We loved our stay at the hotel. The rooms are really private since they are like separate bungalows. The food is good, the pool is nice and centrally located with a great view of the ocean right in front of it. But most of all the location is fantastic. Certainly value for money!
Nightlife Tip : Great nightlife since it is very close to Bangla road.
