"I was shocked by how great this hotel was.. I only stayed one night, because I wanted to be closer to the airport on the last day of my trip. And I never expected for the experience to be so great. I will certainly return in the near future)))"
"Awesome experience at this place, the rooms next to the pool are so handy if you have kids that love being in the water. Rooms are spacious and clean all the time. Staff super helpful and friendly, breakfast was delicious and the food in all the restaurants is also delicious."
"No issues whilst staying here, rooms were clean and toiletries provided.
Given we were in a family room, 4 cups and glasses should have been provided rather than just the 2. Bottles of water provided too."
"Room was spacious comfy & clean. Very convenient loacation for the airport and a 7/11 down the road. Didn’t have breakfast or use the pool. However there was building work right outside my window which woke me up and was going all morning until I left "
"Room did not overlook the beach. This is not a beachfront hotel as stated and it should not be consider a 5 star hotel. Right outside the hotel lots of trash and areas under construction. Not a luxury area as stated. The only nice amenities were gym and pool . Not vibe, silent and quiet. Breakfast was average. Basic. Staff was kind and friendly, but not as a 5 start luxury hotel experience. Very disappointed. "
"My expectations were exceeded! The staff is incredibly attentive, helpful, and friendly. We had the private pool suite room and it was gorgeous, cleaned twice a day.
The shared pool, spa area, entire hotel is stunning. There are two restaurants that has great Thai food and then a menu with everything. Breakfast is included and is very good. They also have a happy hour twice a day, Big and Jo were our servers most of the nights and were excellent - we appreciated them a lot!
We did one of the hikes through the hotel to Black Rock and had an amazing time, and the spa did a phenomenal job as well - definitely utilize their activities.
The beach is better for walking along than staying on - the beach locations on the other side of Phuket you can relax on, but none of the hotels are beach front and they didn’t seem super spectacular when we visited. Old town (I’d skip it), Patong, Kata beach, Big Buddha, and the temple (skip if you’re seeing Bangkok temples), etc. are about a 45-1 hour drive due to traffic, but the other luxury hotels I looked at in comparison to here was the same scenario. I did a lot of research trying to find the correct report/ location and think this hotel was perfect. Will definitely be recommending to anyone! "
