My husband and I really enjoyed this resort! The only slight critique we have is the cleanliness of the washroom. It’s not that bad - just the typical wear and tear of a hotel room. It could just use a good deep clean. There was also an odd smell coming from the bidet sometimes, but I assume that’s just the usual plumbing conditions when you’re staying on an island. We REALLY enjoyed the area and amenities. The pool was a highlight for us. We also really liked the area - many nearby markets, restaurants, shops, etc. The staff was also great. Altogether, would recommend.

Stayed 3 nights in a grand deluxe twin room. The room was very spacious even with two twin beds and a lounge with coffee table. Rooms felt very clean and well vacuumed before my check in. Location was excellent - access to Kata beach was very close by the hotel and there are many restaurants within walking distance. All the staff were just lovely. Had an amazing stay and would definitely come back again when visiting Phuket again

This hotel is located about 7 minutes from the beach. The pools are beautiful. The food is mediocre, but it’s a short walk to many restaurants. The “deluxe” room is small, but we upgraded to a much larger room with a view which was great.

Over all very enjoyable stay reception staff excellent bedroom a bit lacking in drawer space , the bed is formed on a static base with really sharp corners which both myself and my wife walked into several times resulting in a nasty cut for myself.The breakfast lacked a bit of imagination same fruit every day and the egg station very disappointing, eggs pre cooked and then rewarmed if you were lucky never cooked properly on the griddle , better off frying the eggs fresh like other properties we have stayed in we would probably use again if in the area as it is in a very good location for most things in Kata .

Stay for service but not for comfort.
The pillows were flat, and even has odour. The toilet layout got the bidet with the toilet roll dispenser is so bad! Despite giving specific instruction of what amenities is lacking despite after they have made up the room, the housekeeping did not do it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. If you want a basic hotel, near to the beach, this is highly recommendable. Last but not least, somehow, there will always be mosquitoes in the room, despite having killed the night before. And no, balcony door was not opened.

It's a resort with great rooms, great amenities - two outdoor pools, gym - friendly and helpful staff. Their breakfast is abundant and diverse. Its location is great, Kata beach is just around the corner, and Kata Noi is also only a maximum 20-minute walk. There are lots great restaurants and shopping facilities nearby. I would definitely stay there again!
