Family Holiday
The rooms are a bit dated and internet is fair to good. There is plenty to do nearby and the hotel provides a shuttle (at discounted price) to nearby Patong mall. The hotel and surrounding area had a party atmosphere. The hotel does a v. good job of accommodating guests needs. Our room was damp and the hotel was able to change us to another room. The pools were nice and the children enjoyed the water slide. The resort also tries hard to put reasonably priced extra activities together for young children like pool games or cupcake decorating class. I was surprised by the 10% surcharge at the resort/hotels which was on top of the 7% VAT and the TIP. What I would normally TIP decreased because of the surcharge. I was told that the surcharge was separate then the tip and would go the hotel. I think a surcharge is appropriate but only if it is as a tip to increase the living wages of those in the service industry not the bottom line for the hotel profits.

The resort was well located, the staff where very friendly and helpful, unfortunately the resort is overdue for a make over, the rooms are dark and musty. There is no lift in the wings so carrying suitcases down stairs is not the best.

The staff at this hotel were extremely helpful and welcoming. The room given to my wife and myself was roomy, very clean and the air conditioning was thankfully on 24/7. The choice for breakfast was enormous and plentiful. Complimentary towels was available for anyone using the pools and there were sufficient sun beds for those wanting to lounge around the pool. A free shuttle minibus runs five times a day to a huge shopping complex in Phuket town, and this complex is a short taxi ride from the historic centre of the town. I cannot praise the staff of this hotel enough,, they were a pleasure to deal with. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to anyone.

entertainment for kids and adults was good. food markets outside the lobby were good with the band playing. The terrace rooms, lifts and corridors are WAY past their best. Bathrooms had lots of mould. Shower curtain disgusting, drain overflowed in bathroom, disgusting sewage smell. Room very dated and depressing. Despite it being run down and very dated, the cleaning staff did a very good job.

Location is convenient. Swimming pools are fine. However, room is old, towels are old and beddings are smelly. They charged us more than what stated in expedia for extra child and eventually we paid Bath1000 for for upgrade the room size instead. Price wise not worthy.
