Find Resorts in Phang Nga, Thailand

The property is quite fine. Everything was clean and in good condition. The food was good, but not outstanding. I booked a tent, but changed my mind after I got there and had a room instead. I'm sure that even though the tent seemed quite comfortable and clean, having a real bed with a bathroom and hot shower was worth the extra money. The downside of Sametnangshe Boutique is that there is very little to do. Unless you wanted to take a boat to James Bond Island (which I had done a couple of times before), you were a bit stuck. There is no pool, beach, shopping or much of anything else in the area. There isn't even a 7-11 or Family Mart convenience store around, which is pretty unheard of in Thailand. In Phuket, there are places where you can stand in one spot and see three 7-11s. But, the reason you go to Sametnangshe Boutique is the view, which is truly stunning. I could easily see paying for one of the high priced rooms just to watch the sunrise from my bed or bathtub.

We took the long way back to Phuket from Khao Sok and while this right off the tourist map it is a stunning limestone location, and there are some great caves to explore, but nothing much else around so you do feel quite isolated.. The pool villa was fantastic, slightly odd apartment design but worked a treat. The rest of the resort is set up for Chinese tour groups, and breakfast was disappointing so dont go there for a resort experience. If you just want to spend your days by a private pool and get good room service its a great spot in relative seclusion for a very reasonable price.

We were welcomed by the staff, who were very friendly and helpful. The facilities and resort were beautiful and clean, and the ablution facilities were stunning! The best we had at any resort while we stayed there. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced. It was fresh and delicious! The staff, although not very well-spoken in English, were extremely helpful as well as friendly and informative with the use of a translator app on their phones. Breakfast was ready early in the morning, a tasty portion of fried rice that kept us full for the entire day. We were given bags of fish food and were allowed to feed the fish in the nearby river. I cannot even describe how fantastic they all were. The only thing I could recommend is that they provide guests with a thicker and more comfortable mattress, unless they did have something somewhere oin their page which I didn't see, and advise people to bring their own bedding or blankets. Other than that, beautiful place! They even took us to the nearest bus stop, and the lady from Sawasdee sat and insisted on waiting for us to get onto the bus so that she could make sure it was the correct bus and tell the driver where we needed to go. Thank you so much guys!

The WOW factor was the first thing we got upon our arrival at the Resort. It is located in the grounds of Katathong Golf Club. The Resort was six star with a three star price, maybe as there were not many people booked in. We were greeted by Tony the Resident Manager who made our check in very easy. Tony was full of information about the Resort and what to see in the area, Located only one hour from Khao Lak you will need a car or arrange for transport. If you are a golfer then this is the place to be. We would recommend Katathong Resort to anyone wanting to escape the "rat race" of Phuket and to sit on your balcony looking over the golf course and mountains. Heaven. We shall be back again very soon.

Take the room upstairs. Great view and huge size. Room is good enough for 2 stars guesthouse but very clean. Absolute best part of our stay is thanks to owner. He guided us for the day trip to phang nga islands trip. As photographer enthusiast like me, we went together to see sunrise in fishermen village. Then we did the classic day trip with all normal destinations but he arranged to get us there before every others tourists groups. I was quite reluctant to go to see James Bond island because overcrowded. Better we went there thanks to him and the very first people on the place. Such a pleasure. I really advise to go in phang nga and stay there. I don't think that this small city has many guesthouse. But I definitely recommend this one as a must go but the nice room upstairs and great owner/guide

I love to stay away from bustling town, Phuket. That is the reason I chose this hotel. The beach is nice. The swimming & hot spring are superb. The service is ok. Wifi is a bit slow. My room is clean. The architecture seems like built in 90s. It has feeder bus to near by town Khok Kloi every two hours. Tours to Phang Nga bay, Koh Phi Phi & James Bond Island can be arrange at hotel reception. Foods are a bit over price. Continental buffet breakfast is nice. You can take breakfast box as well.

I don't think I should be writing this review because I don't want to ruin how special and secret this place feels by attracting more people to it. However I think people should know about it as it was one of the most special places Ive ever visited and stayed. Far away from the busy tourist trap towns that seem to now dominate Thailand this was the highlight of our 3 week trip to this beautiful country. Don't expect night markets rammed with tourists all eating westernised versions of Thai food because this is the real deal and a much more quite and relaxed way of life. If you want to know more you have to go there and find our yourself!

A very relaxing stay at the Villa during the low season with a really good price at agoda. We stayed 3 nights here in the mid August. The owner is very friendly and helpful. I will never forget eating the tasty sweet durian together. staffs are friendly and helpful. They help doing everything during my stay, including preparing breakfast and sometimes dinner and all the dish wash. The location is good for who travel with a car. Otherwise, You could ask them to give you a ride, 300 btha, two ways, to a supermarket to buy the food you want so that they will cook for you in Thai style or you can cook by yourselves. As the villa is very closed to phang nga bay, the owner is enthusiastic to give you information about tours to phangnga bay, including long boat riding, cave temple visit and etc. She also invited us to go to a hot and cold spring place nearby with her too. All in all, it is definite a relaxing place to stay, especially for those who wanna visit phang nga bay. Two tips, 1.Bring your insect repellent with you, as I got some mosquitoes bite during my visit. 2. Visit their facebook and you can talk to the owner directly. My friend's Comment, Binge watching dr who and swimming (pretending) for three days hidden in a mountain. Quite peaceful and restful... Friendly staff. Cook yourself or staff could prepare meals for you. Nice clean big size room. Large spacious comfortable common living room for those who is tired of staying in the bedroom. For one thing, don't try to hike in the wood less you are prepared for an onslaught of mosquitoes with bug repellent if it work and plenty of anit-itchy cream... They are ferocious...

We had a wonderful stay of three nights there. The owners Nui and Gerard really made us feel like home, demonstrating so much helpfulness, hospitality and kindness. Gerard even brought us personally to town, arranged a massage appointment for both of us, took care of the registration-on his personal time....he really goes the extra mile for his guests and hence leaves a sweet memory for his guests...same for his wife Nui who with her home-made dinners provided us with everything we needed....always some kind of a personal touch for each of their guests....that I was able to notice. Both of them helped us in every possible sense and we left Manora Garden with the best feelings...we can highly recommend this lovely place where true human beings take care of you....rarely have we seen that in this world. Thank you so much Nui and Gerard.
