Find Hotels in Phuket, Thailand

first trip to thailand - july 2012. travelled as a group of four - 2 couples in our mid-20s had such a lovely time at graceland! the staff are just beautiful and very helpful! really impressed. the hotel pool was amazing. so many pools around the hotel to swim in. never over crowded or busy. pool bar is the best invention ever! met and hung out with lots of other travellers and loved our daily arvo happy hour sessions in the pool. ate at both restaurants - great food! buffet breakfast each morning was a highlight. kid and adult friendly - recommend both families and group of mates/couples to stay. enrolled in a cooking class at the hotel. group of 10 people in the class. cooked 4 different thai dishes from scratch and got to eat our creations together in our small group. very organised and i highly recommend it to any foodies out there. location of hotel is ideal. it is literally opposite patong beach, only a ten minute walk to all the shops, markets and night life. felt really safe going out at night to and from the hotel. security around the building and in the building. but far away enough from the night life hub to not hear any noise and sleep soundly. before booking our trip to thailand, i spent a fair bit of time checking out a lot of hotels aroud patong. i chose this one based on reviews from people i knew who had stayed here, reviews on the internet and from just looking at the hotel site itself. honestly, it met and exceeded my expectations and i truly think if your planning a trip to phuket/patong this is the hotel to book. would definitely stay here again and no where else.

banyan tree phuket is a super high-end resort that provided us a luxurious, very comfortable and tranquil stay with excellent service. the staff was always very attentive and helpful, providing directions to local conveniences, booking and communicating with the taxi cab drivers. we had a wonderful experience here on our honeymoon and really enjoyed our relaxing stay. the rooms are gorgeous and very comfortable, with a private jacuzzi/hot tub in the backyard. the facilities were very clean, the pool was terrific and the resort itself very scenic, with a private beach. staff cleaned our rooms twice a day and we received a 2 for 1 special at the spa. the spa treatment was much more expensive than most of phuket but by american standards, fairly priced for great service received. breakfast buffet was amazing, with all sorts of local and fresh thai foods, vegetables, fruits and juices. despite being a little far (25-30 minutes from the airport by taxi and 45 minutes from patong), we highly recommend banyan to any honeymooners or couples looking for a romantic get-away, nested away from hectic tourist areas but close enough where you still get that exposure. just note that phuket is twice as pricey as other cities so this will not be the cheap thailand getaway you usually hear about.

I am a Hotelier and I was amaze of the excellent service that we got from every single employee of the Hotel. Bell boys, receptionists, Rooms Division Director who even met us and welcomed us to the beautiful Hotel, restaurant staff, cleaning ladies. Check-in and check-out easy and personalized. Excellent facilities even for kids, beautiful and spotless room, nice gym and the best breakfast we had in Phuket, we stayed in other 5 star Hotels before Mai House but I really wanted to try this Hotel because of the excellent reviews and I am so glad I did. Next time I go back to Phuket will be just to stay the whole stay at Mai House. Extremely recommended to anyone. Location is on Patong Hill so 5 minutes from the center with beautiful views of the sea. You should try their cocktails at the Mai Sky Bar while enjoying the sunset!

I have stayed @ many hotels in Phuket, but I have to say this Hotel is the most newest.Staff are really friendly, nothing is to much trouble for them. Location is great, but as I said Lakeside has no shortcut entry-exit to shopping mall after 10.00pm. Whereas Beachside has easy entry-exit 24 hrs to Jungceylon, which is a nice modern shopping centre, But I had just come from Chiang Mai so I noticed many more promotions in the Robinson's Department store there than Phuket. Many sales of 20% discount in Chiang Mai compared to Phuket. If you're smart you do shopping @ Bangkok, or Chiang Mai. The only thing is every Robinsons doesn't have all the same Brands & styles in all stores. Phuket Town cheaper, but same thing, don't have all same styles. If you have time you should stop off 2 days @ Bangkok & check out what you like and then compare. And on the return flight home ,stop off @ Bangkok to do your shopping. It's probably a 400-500mtr walk to Patong Beach from the Hotel, but I found the pool @ the hotel more than adequate. I would say if you take the children,it's a great hotel, If you want a little more quite ambiance, then don't stay on school holidays. I would'nt say it was really noisy, but if you want a quite time, maybe don't stay in Poolside rooms. I would give this Hotel a 4 star rating.

Just when I was beginning to feel jaded about Phuket, a weekend at The Naka Phuket has changed my perspective. I can only describe The Naka Phuket as simply spectacular. While many hotels in Phuket (or around the world) call themselves luxury and being a 5-star standard (almost 80% failed to live up to the standard!), The Naka Phuket, even though it is still half completed, has lived up, if not exceeded, its reputation being a truly luxury hotel. A hotel that I would ranked alongside the likes of Alila Uluwatu in Bali. Located in a secluded part of Phuket on the west coast, The Naka Phuket has its own private beach (clean, white sand), a large infinite swimming pool, a decent well-equipped gym, a beautifully constructed dining area (food was fantastic even as simple as pizzas)…last but not least - stunning and spacious pool side villas. My villa has all the state-of-the-art equipments, a balcony offering stunning view of the sea, comfortable king-size bed, full access wifi reception, indoor/outdoor shower areas, decent size villa pool. You can only wonder in awe by the architect who designed these villas. Have to mention the extremely helpful and friendly staff at the hotel (especially Komon, Ying and the restaurant staff), they were always eager to help, wearing a big smile while attending to your needs. This is what deepens the memory of a great hotel, the people. I simply cannot wait for the hotel to be completed - the Naka Phuket has simply raised the bar! P.S. there are several hotels with the name "naka" attached to it, make sure it is The Naka Phuket.

We stayed at SALA as part of celebrating our anniversary. Phuket was last destination in our Thailand trip and we had inconvenient timings in terms of check and check out. Guess services were exceptional and they went great length to help us check in early and checkout late. The check-in process literally took 5 min including 2 min walk to the villa :) The villa probably has better privacy than any city apartment, resort design is seems to be mix of simplicity and elegance, yet it has all amenities you may need from a beachfront resort. We experienced exceptional service from every employee such as reception, restaurant etc. We are vegetarians and restaurant staff was prompt to identify that and provided a vegetarian menu. Food was tasteful and my favorite is their breakfast, pan cakes were absolute divine. We booked vehicle from resort to see different places in phuket and our trip came to a beautiful end because of this decision. Although resort may charge little higher price it is well worth to book from them. Firstly you have lot more security of your stuff in the car, our driver was very knowledgeable and they will be more than willing to help you since hotel reputation is at stake. Finally travelling by resort’s vehicles helped us to keep thugs away. Resort is at unexplored beach in phuket so do not expect sports activities or buzzing crowds or shops at this beach. This is best suitable for couples like us who wish to unwind and have peaceful romantic time. Enjoy there!!

Where to start? First and foremost the team was amazing. Helpful, friendly and took care of our every need from transport from in-resort tuktuk to check out We stayed for 5 days and 4 nights in a Pool Suite. The view was incredible! Best ever. Baba nest has the best view in Phuket period. DO reserve in advance though - was not informed of this by the hotel management until we arrived and they told us that it was fully booked for the entire time we were there (would've been nice if was informed beforehand) Food was also incredible at BABA SOUL FOOD - ate there 3 nights in a row! The chef there is really talented. Avoid Baba Chino though - took expensive and mediocre taste. Good job Sri Panwa team! Best villa experience ever. (We have stayed at The Shore Katathani before and this place beats that place flat) A must stay, worth every freakin baht. Oh and FREE MINIBAR WITH FREE BEER !(never heard of this before) --> amazing

U Zenmaya Phuket Resort is the best place to stay while in Phuket, Thailand. It is located a few kilometers away from Patong Beach, overlooking the Andaman Sea and Patong Bay. And the views are simply breath-taking. Imagine waking up everyday to the picturesque view of the Andaman Sea and Patong Bay is truly amazing. Definitely paradise right from your room. I understand all of the rooms in the hotel take advantage of this magnificent scenery -- even the resort's restaurant, pool area and lounge bar have amazing views as well. This is definitely one of the resort's strongest point. And should you decide to go to Patong Beach to check out the night life or do some shopping, transportation is not a problem. The resort has free shuttle service to Jungceylon Mall in Patong Beach twice a day. Would have been better if there's pick-up service back to the hotel.. but going back to the hotel or getting around the area isn't really a problem as there are a lot of taxis and tuk-tuks plying the area, even at night or even in the wee hours of the morning. We got the Junior Suite Seaview Pool Access which comes with 1 Hour Spa treatment for 2 persons per stay. Truly, great value for money! The resort staff are ever friendly, helpful and speak & understand English very well. Kudos to the resort's F&B Manager Pom who made my friend's birthday extra special by whipping up a surprise creme brulee birthday "cake" during our stay... and to Chef Garfield who make sure everything was ok and checked too see if we have the best stay possible in the resort. Definitely, highly recommended for those who want to get the best of the both what Patong Beach has to offer and the best of a 5-star resort!!!

Unbeatable 5 star resort on Phuket. Booked a 1 bedroom sea view, but upon arrival found out they upgraded us to a 2 bedroom penthouse. 150m2 appartment with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 60m2 rooftop balcony. State of the art equiped with 3 lcd tv's, and 4 airconditioning units. Swimming pool great and restaurant excellent as well. The restaurant is relatively expensive, but that seems to be the trend for hotel-restaurants everywhere in Thailand. 2 minor points of criticism: - Each bed had 4 pillows, but all are of the same type. Rather hard and thick, while feathered pillows should be the standard. - The sea on this side of Phuket is not really made for swimming. Sand is very coarse and water shallow up to 300 meters from the shore. Keep in mind that these minor downsides are close to neglectable. We spend 1 month in Thailand, and stayed exclusively in 5 star accomodations, of which none came close to the Serenity Resort

a very nice hotel very well located. the beach is the kata noi beach and is amazing. i have been to many hotels in phuket and the beach is the bext i have seen. the place is quiet and very romantic. will defintely go back there. the room was very confirtable and modern, nicely decorated. Take the suite, not a bid fdifference of price but amazingly romantic and big. i advise this hotel for both family and couples for an honey moon or soemthing else. the breakfast was good too. the best in phuket.

We were looking for a private villa with the service of a 5 star hotel and we found it at the Anantara Phuket hotel. The villas opening to a private pool are beautiful and everything is made for the guests to have a splendid time, away from everything. We plan to go back there to relive the paradise feel...

Our stay was one of the best in the past 22 years of visiting Phuket. Since we always rent a moped the location was no problem. The hotel is located on a steep hill but they provide a shuttle service that runs every 5 mins. We never had to wait for a shuttle service. We used the pool several times and it was clean and enjoyable. The pools are a little small but there are three to chose from. We stayed in a ocean view jacuzzi room which was a special internet (AGODA SPECIAL) price. The in room jacuzzi was large enough for a couple and had hot / cold water. The bed was firm but that is typical of all Phuket hotels.

We were welcomed by Viren and the rest of the staff. They made us feel very special and welcoming. The resort is out of this world. It is amazing. When it is finished it will be 7 stars. We were really lucky VIren gave us villa 1103 it's on the the highest point meaning extra privacy. My husband could sunbed nude on our private lounge area next to our private infinity pool. Yes private infinity pool overlooking the clearest water in Thailand. On the other side all you see is a natural tropical forest. It truly is a special place. The food was good, the best part was the breakfast. Simply divine and overlooking the beach what more could you ask for. Staff were always attentive and friendly. The manager of the resort introduced himself to us. And treated m husband to another cocktail because they used the wrong sugar in the first one. We were not omplaining the first cocktail was perfect but the manager wanted it to be right. So they go out of their way to help and make yor stay special . Happy hour was cheap and you can actually taste the ingredients and the alcohol. Another highlight was the spa. They have spa happy hour. Who is not going to take that up. My husband and I booked foot massages during happy hour we got free back massages. I was in heaven my therapist Sao was just wonderful, Andy had Pa or was it Sa, not sure of the name. But they really looked after us. I can not fault it. I would love to return in a couple of years when the deluxe suits are finished. Which leaves me to wonder how amazing they will be because the suits there now are out of this world. Perfect for romance. I miss it there. Forever in my thoughts. Only two cons, the hotel transfer only happens twice a day, that's not good enough. Also it is pricey, cheaper if you take the hotel transfer too. Second thing, Tiny lizards also love the villas. They are harmless and the resort is next to a tropical forest so it is expected I just hate them. My husband on the other hand loved them.

I can't say enough great things about The Shore at Katathani. It's on the Southern end of Kata Noi and is the top-end of the Katathani Resort. Phuket/Patong is 20 minutes North in a cab. When we arrived, we were taken to the room in a buggy/golf cart which are at your beckoned call whenever you want it. The villa itself was BREATHTAKING. Like literally. When we opened the door and caught sight of the view, it took our breath away. It faced out over all of Kata Noi beach and the giant waves were just rolling in. With one sweep, the entire wall of windows can be retracted and you can just dip your feet into your own personal infinity pool. Perfect! One of the best parts of the resort was its food and beverage prices. They were reasonable especially which was a warm welcome. We stayed at Ritz Carlton in Phulay Bay and felt taken advantage of. We actually spent more at The Shore at Katathani because the prices were good and the food and drinks were great. Every night, the resort gave us a special treat... like a swan towel art. New fresh flowers. Tasty chocolates. One night, they put a special duvet cover on our bed that said Happy Honeymoon. (It was). The pool is one of the highlights. It's this awesomely shaped infiniti pool. Just gorgeous. Great brunch/breakfast in the mornings. There's nothing more you could want... Stay here. You will not be disappointed. It was the best hotel we stayed at in Thailand, beating out Phulay Bay Ritz Carlton and Sofitel in Bangkok. If management is reading this review: The only suggestion I have is for you to talk to your bar/pool waitstaff to be more attentive. They did not ever come around to ask if we'd like more drinks. We always had to come to the bar to ask for another round or flag our hands around to catch their eye. And also, there were times when we saw used/empty glasses just sitting on the tables for an hour or two. Just a small change and you are at perfection!!

I took a mid night flight from Hong Kong to Phuket, and I was going to participate a wedding ceremony held in Angsana Laguna Phuket Hotel on the next day evening. I requested late check in and late check out when I book the room 3 weeks before my arrival to hotel. I even sent request to the hotel through its online chatroom on their website. I receive no reply or any confirmation about the special request even till I check in at hotel. I only found that in my order, there was stated special request as Late Check in & Late check out, but the receptionist couldn't confirm it. The receptionist asked me to confirm it on the next day before the normal check out time. I was there at 03ish, I was so exhausted, I would like to have a rest till the late minutes before check out. I worried about any extra charge for the late check out. After my request of re-confirmation at the reception, finally the staff kindly offer me a late check out at 1400 on the next day. Staff are nice anyway.The hotel is beautiful, i love the poolside restaurant much. I would come again for my vacation later.

hotel has been taken over by swissotel on 1 april - so after our original booking. we were upgraded from a 2 bed appartment to a 3 bed appartment which was enormous. also had a huge wrap around balcony as it was on the top (3rd) floor of the hotel. kitchen is basically a fridge sink and microwave so no cooker. but it's so cheap to eat oiut we didn't or wasnt going to use that anyway. pool is great and the hotel was busy for easter weekend but quieter afterwards. lots of families and extended families on holiday so wouldnt recommend for young couple. beach is literally a 5 min walk away (if that). best part of kamala beach too as it's away from the main drag. beach was beautiful and wonderful for the children. there was a tsunami alert whilst we were there and we had to evacuate - but this was just a walk up the mountain/hill behind the hotel. we were very lucky and nothing happened. however just be mindful that this could happen and think what you'd need in a grab bag - mosquito repellant - wet and dry flannels - towels to sit on - torch and your valuables and passports (not suitcase just small bag. breakfasts were wonderful withy best poached eggs made to order i've ever tasted. children ate too many of the wonderful pastries though! happy hour (2 for 1) is between 4 and 7 and includes all drinks - even childrens milkshakes so worth having one (or 2) before leaving the pool to get ready for a night out. kamala - as most of phuket is serviced by what they call the taxi mafia - just over priced taxis. grab a taxi from the airport & it's baht. try to get their number to use again if possible. if not it's baht return journey from taxis near hotel.

i stayed at the cape sienna phuket hotel for one night, and i regret to not stay longer. the hotel is great. the room is great with modern designs and a very reasonable price. but the hotel is very quiet, maybe i stayed there not on the high season. the breakfast is also very good, the restaurant is very nice. i got the chance to sit at the sofa which is very nice and also the view is nice. i didn't get the chance to go to vanilla sky bar, by the looks outside it looks very nice. i will definetely go back to the cape sienna phuket hotel. a very nice hotel.

One of the best hotels in Phuket. Great contemporary design; perfect alternative to the boring Thai-styled interior in most Phuket hotels. The room is new, spacious, and very clean. The staff are very attentive. It's got one of the best pools in Phuket, if not Thailand. I had a wonderful stay.

This is a beautiful hotel with lovely facilities. They have a lot of activities so you won't get bored staying for a couple days, however it is a little far off the beaten path so it takes a little effort to get to. The hotel makes it easy and it really is worth the trip. Phuket can be overwhelming, but this island paradise is a quiet little cove, with beautiful beaches (beware of day tourists, but that's anywhere in Thailand these days) and surrounding scenary. While everything is amazing and meets all five star expectations, with beautiful clean grounds, rooms and attentive staff, it is a little expensive by Thailand standards (however still very reasonable by international standards).

Honesty to say that it will be a excellent memory in my mind. The overview of hotel should in the top 10 ranking of Phuket hotels. There some points lay in below: 1. Everybody is smiling and friendly. 2. the efficiency of service is high. they can make good service for you whatever how late it is. 3. ICON(2nd FL restaurant) restaurant is the top class. Food is fresh and good tasty.(items also colorful, eastern and western both can enjoy food there. servicing is the best, they are coming to service for you when you are present here. Especially Inga, She is really professional,smart and friendly. There i am also lay something need improvement: 1. The lake water and edge of lake is not so clean, pls try to clean it monthly. and for the lake water, it cannot be refresh. So, the senior management of hotel can consider to negotiation with gov. that to make a Chanel link to the sea. so, everyday the water will be refresh by the sea. 2. Pls set up more travel guide counter, other ways it will spend our more time. Any way, I am happy to living here and i will come back next time. Thanks&Best regards

We heard good feedback from friends about their stay at Indochine Resort and decided to stay when we went for our short vacation in Phuket. Before the trip, we researched on the website about this resort. There were a number of not so good feedback, especially one Japanese guy whom we thought is too highly critical. However, given the very positive feedback by our friends, we are not too concerned about those comments we saw on Agoda website. We stayed at the ocean front room and the view of the patong bay was absolutely spectacular and breathtaking! Think this is the only place in the world where you can have three landscaping views (mountains, sea and sky) all thrown in. The best part is that we get to enjoy all these without the noise if we were to stay somewhere near Patong Beach. Good quality furniture and fittings were used and room was clean as well. Service was excellent too. However, have to be more patient as with most hotels or resorts in Thailand, the staffs take a longer time to understand what we want. We had the breakfast which was part of the deal – the spread was not too bad. We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation and it is a pity that we had to go back so soon. This has become one of our favorite places to stay when we visit Phuket and we will highly recommend this to our friends and family who will be visiting Phuket.

This was our last hotel during our three week stay in Thailand. I have to say that this stay was on top of our list of best hotels in Phuket. For the money, our accomdations were excellent and we enjoyed spending time at the hotel. One of the most helpful and amicable staff members was a lady by the name of Alice. She helped us with requests and inquiries promptly and courteously. Also, Chan at the main lobby was excellent in helping us to check out effortlessly. As for the accomodation, the room was very big and full of ammenities that made for a comfortable rest and stay. One thing of note is the hotel's location. It is far from nightlife in Patong(which we really did not mind). We just wish there was at least a convenience store nearby or a few accessible restaurants that serve thai cuisine. Overall, a memorable stay in Phuket that we will not forget!

This was our 2nd time with Amari. This time, with our parents, so we booked the 2 bedroom Suite. I had built a certain expectation based on our last experience--but some things have changed. Cons - The Suites are now located on a hill, constructed several years ago. They provide a buggy to take you there. These glass condo suites weren't built when we were there last time, so I wasn't expecting to be so distant from the pool and breakfast area. In fact, the location of our suite was further up the hill (several loops) making it way too far to walk down the lobby. This means relying all the time on the buggy. Not a big deal, since you just call and they come after 5 mins, but not the most convenient. Second, our suite was facing another suite's roof. So, all the effort to be high up on a hill, tucked in there, only to face the roof of another suite, after paying 'much more' was a bit frustrating. They did move us to another location the next day. So, that was nice. Pros - they are very attentive in addressing your needs. My husband pulled a muscle and needed a chiropractor on a Sunday, and one of the ladies in the Front desk was extremely accommodating and called several clinics and hospitals until we found one. They did relocate us to another room and provided an Anniversary cake for my parents. They were very generous with replacing the water bottles, fresh fruits, etc. The breakfast was expansive. Huge selection and the location of the breakfast area outdoors really makes you forget everything. It's serene, peaceful and just beautiful. I think it's the best property in Phuket, considering the island isn't really the most beautiful or romantic. It was a great way to end our trip in Thailand here, to relax, enjoy the neighboring islands, etc. My parents loved it, so that's the most important. If this is your 1st time in Phuket, it IS expensive...so bring some goodies from Bangkok. Rent a scooter...because Taxi drivers ask for ridiculous amount for such sh

This is the 3rd time I have stayed at this hotel, and it is very reasonably priced for the 5 star service you receive. The gardens are beautiful, stunning location , and the layout and design of the hotel is superb. This is not a new hotel but it has a wonderful relaxed feeling. Great to be away from all the other hotels in Phuket. Great beach, and fantastic local beach restaurants. Local taxis, will take you to Phuket town and Patong if you want shopping and nightlife. Some local shops. I love staying at this hotel , and as another lone traveller said to me "this place is something else".

Knowing that it was a soft opening, I was prepared for the worst. what I had found blew my mind.... The location was far fro. Phuket city, but that was tge main reason why you wanna go there....quiet and great view. we had a duplex and the room was all glass wall....so ocean all around. the staff were nice and friendly. the hotel overall desogn was lovely and amazing. Love the beanbags by the pool. you get oceanbreeze all day long here. my boyfriend and I have been in many 5 stars hotel..and yet, we love this little boutique hotel. the upsides: - amazing view from room. great pool size overlooking ocean. you wake up to the beach - private beach...meaning nice clean and quiet area - oceanbreeze all around - lovely room...all white walls and glass - lovely local staffs.....nice and genuine and friendly. they will do their best to make it happen for you. if you are expecting 5 stars service like St.Regis...you are in the wrong place. the downsides are: - lightout lasted a few hours.eaning tram was occaaionally...not working. given that this is a new development area. - soft opening..so u see a few WIP here and there. but all major areas like restaurants and pools are all nicely finished. - flies....the concept of the hotel is open area..so expect a few flies. Tip: - get a deplex for better view and space - the hotel is full of stairs. so make sure you can do stairs walk - it is far from Phuket city. so rent a car. - room service (thai food) is pretty good. (judged by me...a Thai)

When we drove up to this resort, I was thinking wow this is an amazing property, wish it's where we are staying. Then I saw the sign and we all got excited. It has some serious curb appeal. We drove up, parked our car and saw a lot of construction still going on. Security called for 2 golf carts to come down and pick up our luggage and the 3 of us. We took a steep and dangerous ride, passengers in the back need to hang on for dear life. The reception desk is located outdoors under some of the architecture. A pool wraps around the front of some of the pool access rooms. It's beautiful, but in an Ikea sort of way. Our room, the sea view room, while somewhat stylish looks great with a wonderful view but that's just the surface. If you stay in the room, you will find that there's only about 2 outlets inside and 1 outlet on the balcony. The wifi signal was a bit weak but I speedtested it and it measured in at 5Mb up and down. The finishes in the room are pretty low quality but I've found that with a lot of Phuket hotels. The restroom facilities are bad as they give you pretty much no privacy. I wouldn't recommend it for a family stay. With only 2 outlets, you have to plug in the hair dryer outside of the restroom area. The doors are glass and frosted in some parts but lend very little privacy. The toilet room is separated from the shower but the door only goes part way up letting every little noise you make out into the living space. Water pressure was low on the rainfall showerhead. The bathroom counter hardly had any usable space, you better learn to live tight. Beds are super firm. There wasn't much consideration with regard to safety so you better watch your kids. The ride up to the property was dangerous as is the property itself. Every doorway has a ledge so the moment you step out, you are falling down and you can really hurt yourself if you're not careful. The pool is amazing, views of 2 beaches and it has a bar area. Some rooms will have pool access at thei

This is the place you stay and never want to go back home. It is totally relaxing with vast manicure lawn, private beach, and quiet location away from Patong area, but only 10 kms from Phuket city center. I went to this hotel for the second time in two months and booked another vacation for next month and believed there would be many more to come. Beautiful hotels are easy to fine in this price range, but the staff make all the difference at The Regent Phuket Cape Panwa. They were attentive but not intrusive. They always tried their best to meet your needs. For example, with the pool villa I booked, I was entitled to a free afternoon tea set each day. On the check-in day, I noticed other guests had a beef burger in their set. I told a waitress right away that I didn't eat beef. I expected that my set would be one piece short of the normal set or they would just give me one more of something else that they already prepared. But, to my amazement, the chef freshly made me a burger with chicken and avacado with creamy sauce which was very yummy! They absolutely had me again. With my two stays at this place, the first time I chose a pavilion which was a house in itself. The bedroom was attached to a balcony with separate bathroom. Inside the bathroom, there were separated shower and toilet. The bath was full-size. This time I booked a pool villa. When the butler opened the door to the room/house, I felt like I was moved into another world, perhaps paradise. The bedroom was similar to the pavilion, but twice the size with separate level for the living room. Two sides of the wall were windows from ceiling to floor. (The blinds could be easily opened and closed from your bed panel.) You can watch the panoramic view from your bed all day long. Or, better yet, sink in the private jacuzzi pool and enjoy the view. Stunning property with amazing service. The best in Phuket!

I don't use to write often a review but this time I wanted to share with you our experience regarding our stay in this facility where I booked initially 2 days to stay but decided to extend to one week despite some negatives aspects described below: Let me start with the positive points: Wonderful hotel, wonderful view, extremely quiet, Incredibly clean, you feel yourself out of the world, the only sound you hear is the wave of the ocean, the sound of water falls everywhere around the hotel and the birds signing.. If you are in honeymoon or in romantic escape then it's the place where you need to be. Check-in is fast, welcome is warm, staff is friendly like everywhere in Thailand. Room are big, well equipped, decoration is ZEN_attitude style which is matching the spirit of the hotel. Mattress are new and comfortable, Nespresso machine with enough complimentary water. Rooms are spread around the facility and not in one building where you will cross all customers in corridors or elevators like in most of hotels or resorts, you feel yourself in pedestrian village within a tropical green and flowers. Most beautiful pool view in Phuket, fantastic Gym facility overlooking the bay… The breakfast is great with all kind of food, fruits and drinks are fresh, it is a lunch itself… We went to many places in Phuket but nothing could equal this Hotel in term of location, environment and services. Negative points: Fare from everywhere which is normal if we are looking for a quiet place. The most inconvenient point is the food, actually they have very limited choice of restaurants, only 2, one is open all day and second (the Italian restaurant) open only at lunch and dinner time and last order at 10h30 so if you are in the city and arrive late then the only choice is to have room service!!! If you stay more than 2 days then the food becomes a challenge as you will be almost eating same thing every day.. For the bar, it's really disappointing as they close at 11pm, incredible when

Some people say this is the best resort they have ever been to - which we agree. Most quiet Anantara resort in Phuket. We spent three nights here from 17-20 April as a long weekend getaway and birthday celebration. All the team members are great - everyone is so great and has a consistent high service standard. They are all friendly and are ready to help. Special thanks to our villa host, Ethel (and she is from HK who of course speaks Cantonese and Mandarin); the chef in Dee Plee the Thai restaurant, Pitak (he gave us a superb Thai cooking class and market tour), Alif (the bartendar who gave us a great cocktail class), and everyone else who made us very welcomed. Food and beverage - Dee Plee is the best Thai restaurant in Phuket. Pitak is a very talented chef creating many innovative dishes. There is nice romantic seaview you can’t miss. We also had private dining in the Chapel for birthday dinner and private BBQ in villa. The arrangement, decoration and food are all very nice (admittedly they cost but they are worth the money). Spice Spoon cooking class (instructed by Pitak himself!) and the cocktail class (with Alif as instructor) are of super fun and high quality. Spa treatments - anantara spa is of very high quality, with very good therapists. Nice pool-villa: we booked the beachfront layan pool villa in which there is a hidden direct access to the beach. Very big villa with separate living room and bedroom. Beach activities: they got a nice quiet beach, with kayat and pedal board, and you can take a long tail boat (around 2k TB) to a nearby small island for snorkeling. But tidal effect is huge - you can only do all these high tide (half a day). No beach activities during low tide, but you have a very beautiful sunset walking out there. Nearby renovation: there were some constructions going on over the hill side building some luxury mansions. However the constructions seem to be finishing by the time we were there.
