Lousy Motel, DIRTY ROOMS
The rooms were musty and dirty, no utensils are given and very poor hotel service. Breakfast is extremely limited, location is hard to get to and sheets are obviously not changed for a long time. DO NOT CHOOSE THIS HOTEL, EVEN IF THE PRICE IS CHEAP. TOTALLY NOT WORTH IT.

Off the beaten path.
This property is a condominium building that owners sublet to the hotel. It is pretty new and spacious and clean. The kitchen was of no use because there were no dishes, silverware, pans, no microwave, just a fridge. The area is quiet and very peaceful - a neighborhood of nice new houses. The trade off for this seclusion is that you'll need a taxi to get anywhere and they're a bit expensive, plus you can't just pop into the hotel during the day. Knowing what I know now, I'd stay near Patong. Also, the restaurant was not that great, but it was low season and the building was empty except for us. I'd recommend this hotel to families with children that want a lot of space, in a nice area with a good pool.

Quite spot at Bangtao Beach
We stayed for 1 night in a 2 bedroom Penthouse room with a pool. The hotel was pretty quiet but the staff service was great. The room was a good size with good amenities. We had 3 kids set up in the second bedroom with a double and an extra single and they had plenty of room. The main bedroom was a great size and from the top floor we could see the Sea. Our only issue was the hardness of the mattresses but it seams this may be a Thailand standard. The hotel offered regular free shuttle service to the beach but you could walk it.

Nice hotel if it was the busy season
This hotel was very nice, but I swear we were the only people there.. It was a little spooky so I guess overall condition was looking a little run down but in the busy season I think this place would be booming! Lovely location, close to the beach but not to close so you can escape. Staff were very nice and over all I'd stay here again.

Not reccommended
Airconditioning didnt work. After having to request another room, airconditioning only worked in bedroom. It was all to hard to complain and get yet another room so we put up with it. Our stay was for three nights and we were promised daily that the airconditioning would be repaired but it didnt happen. I wouldnt reccommend this hotel to anyone.

bad location, poor customer service and aircon bad
hotel location was bad, very difficult to find. Aircon was bad at 35 degree, requested to change room but reception refuse initially and argue that have to be patient for aircon to cool down. .tired and pirspiring with my baby and 1 child...reception-a man was rude..told us to be patient and everything will be ok... Waited for an hour, but aircon still 32 degree., called the reception again and unreluctuntly finally agree to change room but the room with no toilet paper, no toiletries. Ask to reschedule massage time but told by the reception lady not allowed..angry and told to cancel but reception said there will be 50per cent charge. I argue said no massage done, so hotel not right to charge to the room. Finally, agreed to reschedule time..very BAD hotel staff attitude and service.

Great hotel for newly wed or for a family
The hotel is only 5-10 minutes walking distance from one beach; however, the hotel provide free shuttle to several other beaches. Breakfast was great! They had a western and asian breakfast either one was delicious to my family and I. The pool was as awesome in reality as shown on the website pix, the water was clean and at a great temperature...warm. The service provided by the staff was excellent despite their limited english they attended us superbly. Great hotel for a family with kids seeking peace and tranquility. Final comment is that the restaurants on the nearest beach are all delicious I strongly recommend the indian restaurant and the Andaman seafood restaurant at night so you can eat on the terrace to see and hear the waves as the tight goes up.

We left early
I would not recommend this hotel or stay again. We left early. Staff was friendly but required some training in providing consistent service, for the price charged. For example, when ordering breakfast 4 pancakes came on 4 plates and staff usually could take only 1 order at a time. Staff appeared to be unsure of responsibilities, for example security staff where not located at the gate but within the complex. The air conditioner did not work well in one room, would never get below 26, staff went through the procedure of notifying people of our concern, but it was not fixed after 2 days. The location was within walking distance, but a little removed and further than we wanted to walk 2 times per day. The hotel was very empty in comparison to surrounding hotels, which gave an eerie feeling. Management charged an excessively high service charge for all services, ranging from phoning for a taxi 50%, to booking tours also at 50%. Management did not treat their staff very well, which was the most upsetting. Check your prices before booking.

Good Apartment accomodation
Good apartment accommodation which suited our family of 5 within the 2 bedroom penthouse with its own pool.m Spacious and clean with good shared facilities and services. A small distance from two beaches which could be accessed by a complimentary shuttle service during the day or a short walk. Slightly out of the way, although close enough to still be accessible.

nice and clean but underdeveloped location
hotel looks close to a sea on a map but in fact it is misrepresentation. Walking takes 10-15 minuets to reach the beach and the area you will walk through is not very nice and little smelly. Pool view rooms are ok but if you get the other side you will be very disappointed

Nothing Too Much Trouble
Despite a set back when we arrived.( The Three bedroom villa we booked was not available ) the general manager , Michael , was at hand to explain and quickly make amends by compensating us with 2 x 2 penthouse suites with Ocean view and no cost disadvantage. The breakfast was adequate without being spectacluar. We enjoyed our stay and extended two nights.

Bangtao Tropical Residence
We initially booked the 3 bedroom pool villa on expedia for 3 nights, but ended up staying for an entire month. When we checked in we were awestruck by the size and luxury of the private villa. It's two stories and I'd guess around 300-400 square meters inside. All three of the bedrooms have spacious balconies, two of them overlooking the private pool. The staff, especially Michael and Rosario, was extremely friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The prices for room service were about the same as the local restaurants (around 150 baht per plate), and the wireless internet was flawless. One day the entire town's power went out and the resort somehow stayed up and running the whole time (must have a backup generator). There is literally nothing negative that could be said about this resort. We took a look at the one and two bedroom suites inside the main building of the resort and they're just as luxurious, just not as much space. We'll definitely be staying there when we come back to Phuket with less people. As far as location, the resort is in between Bangtao beach and beautiful Surin beach, only a 2 minute drive or 10 minute walk from either. Patong, the nightlife and tourist capital of the island, is about 15 minutes drive. I highly recommend Bangtao Tropical Residence to anyone wanting to experience Phuket, for short or long-term stays. I refuse to stay anywhere but Bangtao Tropical Residence when I'm on the island of Phuket.

Rauhallista oloa
Hotelli itsessään rauhallinen, matkaa rannalle mutta hotellista kuljetus. Aamiainen vaatimaton ja siivouksen taso ei isompien hotellien tasoa, näkyy paikallinen omistus. Mutta haimme rauhaa ja aurinkoa ja sitä saimme...joinakin päivinä saimme hotellin uima-altaan täysin itsellemme! Maaliskuun loppu muutenkin hiljaista turistien osalta joten Bangtao Beach oli myös hyvin rauhallinen.

Själva rummen var väldigt stora och "lyxiga". AC:n levde om väldigt mycket så det var svårt att sova på nätterna. Fanns inget varmvatten under hela vistelsen (7 dagar var vi där), så det var att duscha i ljummet vatten. Poolen var i behov av renovering och klorhalten var nog inte som den skulle (sved i ögonen på oss alla om vi dök). Var en ganska bit ner till strand och till restauranger så det gäller att vilja promenera mycket eller helst hyra en vespa så man kan ta sig fram. Vill man vara igång mycket under resan så funkar hotellet okej, men inte så trevligt om man vill ligga mycket vid poolen och bada. Trevlig personal och familjär stämning på hotellet. Inte många som bodde där under tiden vi var där.
