Sunwing Bangtao Beach

Nice hotel to good value. One bedroom including sitting area (children's beds). Good pool areas. Cleaning could be better.

We had a wonderful stay here at Sunwing, beautiful location, fantastic facilities and a very relaxing end to our busy trip with the kids. We enjoyed the pool very much and the breakfast on the beachfront. Would definitely stay here again. A nice welcome touch was a welcome drink which was refreshing in the heat.

I really can’t fault this place or have anything bad to say about it. It really was amazing! Everything you can ever think of for the kids. My kids absolutely loved it and so did we! Very clean, great staff, delicious buffet breakfast. Loved wayching the sunset every night from the restaurant while we had dinner right on the beach. Only con is I wish we had stayed longer!

Wonderful resort with amazing friendly staff

Amazing staff

We had a thoroughly good time at Sunwing Bangtao. Rooms very clean, spacious, comfortable; staff friendly and helpful; great breakfast and restaurant (1 child eats free with a paying adult and kids’ meals are good); lots of things to do for kids and adults; clean, spacious pools and own beach; lots of places to eat in close vicinity - we enjoyed all of them, especially Captain Kook Seafood a few minutes’ walk up the beach for sunset dinners while kids play in the sand. Third time to Thailand, second to Phuket, but first time with kids (4 and 6 years old) - Sunwing Bangtao was perfect for us.

Very good hotel for famlily. We had a wonderful times here. Highly recomended to anyone especially family with young children.

Upon check in, after asking for a quiet room, I was told that this is a “family hotel”. I found the statement entirely odd. Every hotel should be welcoming to families and all others. When I was placed in a room next to the kids’ water slide, I asked for a change of room to a quieter area on the property, and this became an exercise of endurance. Reason after reason was given why I could not be moved (during low season). After some persistence, I was given the option to move three days later, more than half way through my stay. In a hotel with hundreds of rooms spread across four different building, I have to believe that something more could have been done to accommodate. Pool Towel Obsession … You are given two cards for two pool towels upon check-in with a stern warning that if you lose a card the charge is 800 Baht (US$25). This fixation on the pool towels extends to the staff responsible for dispensing towels. The focus is not on being friendly to guests, but on the towels a

Please don't get moe wrong, the hotel is probably one of the best in this locality. Spotless clean, meticulously kept garden, nice pools with waterslides for both infants and older children, lots of toys and board games to borrow, daily clean towels and sheets, great breakfasts. There is a nice restaurant for lunch and dinners across the street called The Pine Tree. Surroundings of the hotel os a disaster. There is a sewerage behind the hotel flowing directly into the sea, from time to time the tide brings plastics, ropes, straws, broken glass etc. Quality of the Bangthao beach varies - parts belonging to any of the hotels are ok, but there are lot of abandoned places which nobody takes care of. In a low season (May to Oct) dangerous rip currents make swimming in the sea impossible, tours by boat can be dangerous because of big waves, red flags everywhere. Prices are quite high, 150-300 bht/meal, 120/beer, 60/juice, taxi 150-200 bht/km of ride.

The resort provided for all our needs, it was very good stay and we would go back again. The Kidd’s loved the swimming pool, breakfast was great, very well mannered staff specially the reception ladies were friendly, welcoming and very helpful. It would be a good idea if the hotel could provide shuttle service to 1 or 2 shopping locations.

Great place for families with young children, kids club, pool area, staff etc very child friendly. Kids eat free with paying adult, resonable prices on food & bev's. Right on the nice beach which offers a few small restaurants and bars at walking distance. Will be back.

The facilities are generous, lots of activities, 4 pools, waterslide etc. Breakfast is copious and decent quality. One restaurant was closed. The other is terrible. Food prepared for a prison and indeed some of the staff would have been better suited to being jailors than in hospitality. That's the sum of it. Hospitality was lacking but if you're pretty independent its fine. The question then is, why pay these prices?

We try to stay here every summer. Kids absolutely love it here.

We are a family of four with two kids below 6. It was a great hotel. We loved the layout of the hotel. The kids had so much fun in the multiple pools, especially the slide (this was one reason I picked the hotel). There were so many other families, the kids made friends easily. Great selection for the breakfast buffet. It’s great when ordering a la carte for lunch and dinner that kids eat for free. I liked the effort of the selection of bins for different waste. However I think there should be more effort on reducing waste, especially plastic. The pool bar serves drinks in plastic cups with plastic straws. I know this is a safety issue, so change to reusable plastic cups instead of disposable. Straws should be banned. And take-always are popular, so several plastic bags and cutlery being used. Again provide reusable cutlery and no plastic bags. Overall this is a great hotel. We would definitely come back. I hope to see more sustainable practices in place.

We went at low season so it wasn't super busy but enough people around so that our children could make friends. The room was spacious and very clean. Everything was reasonably priced for a resort.

We wouldn't normally stay at 'A Family Resort' and as such only stayed a couple of days. It was very clean, rooms were big, comfortable and well decorated. The hotel must have bought new mattress pads as they were super comfortable, especially great when you have a sick child. If you have younger kids then it would be a great place to keep them entertained. Beach was beautiful with great waves - not too much garbage on it.

+ Nice, big rooms Friendly staff Clean hotel and rooms Accommodations are really nice In front of the beach - prices at the restaurant (taxes on top of the amount) Less enthousiasme during lower season period of the animation team Smoothies and other cocktails at the pool could be bettter Opportunity: putting a pool for toddlers (with almost no water)?

We spent a week at the Sunwing in Bangtoa beach resort in July with our 4 year old son and 7 year old daughter. We had previous stayed at the Kamala beach winding 2 years earlier and thought we try Bangtao this time. The beach and the resort was quieter than Kamala beach, but it was a perfect family holiday once again with Sunwing! Big thumbs up and thank you to Sunwing, its Manager and very helpful and pleasing staff for helping us have a great, fun filled beautiful stay at you resort and in Thailand. We loved everything and we come again. Either the resort was recently fully renovated or you all just keep it immaculate! Great rooms,great pools, good food and great staff!!

I would definitely come here again.

It’s highly recommended to families with young children, where there are many activities for them inside the resort. Swimming pools were very good specially the volleyball and basketball they have added to the kids pools
