Holidays in Kata

Location, location, location... on Patong beach and near many restaurants, fast food, shopping malls and bars. Love this hotel's cabana style layout and garden paths to rooms. Received a two price level free upgrade to a beautiful big sea view room. So due to tourists slow down, doesnt hurt to ask if a free upgrade is available. Nice breakfast buffet or choice from menu when buffet isn't available. Freindly staff! They even helped me by calling an outside local business to fix a problem i had. As of the date of this posting, due to Covid-19 Patong beach area businesses are still mostly still shut down, but starting to see some starting to open back up. Did find enough places to eat, convenient store, pharmacies etc.. Found one Starbucks open on beach road and one Coffee Club open on next street back near entrance of the walking street. Also there were food huts along the beach in the evening that were open. Booking tours was done via the hotel front desk, since no tour places were open in the area that i saw. One suggestion is to book the hotel's new luxury van and driver to take you around Phuket. We booked 4 hrs and it was only 1200 THB. Woody our driver took us to Phuket temple, Big Buddha, PhuketTiger Park, Karon view point and others but you can also choose where you would like to go. Hoping Patong area businesses will open fully soon!

We really enjoyed our stay! Our room was very large and comfortable with a beautiful view of the ocean and the pool area. Incredible sunsets! The pool was quite large and the perfect temperature for cooling off! Service at the swim up bar was excellent. There was comfortable seating on the large balcony and a comfortable couch in the room - a very welcome addition instead of just a desk style chair. I also enjoyed services in the spa - very professional, affordable and relaxing. We enjoyed drinks at the rooftop bar for sunset as well as a very nice dinner one evening. The only downside - for us - was the dining room. We found the service to be slow and the food was mediocre. There were plenty of cabs out front to take you down the hill. As "older" folks and one of us with knee problems we found the hill to be difficult to walk. There were plenty of restaurants in the area to choose from once you were at the bottom. We would love to return.

Great place for family with kids. Great stuff, Vasily was very helpful. Great kids club, awesome food. Definitely recommend this place.

The property was extensive and had decent pool facilities. The rooms need upgrading or renovation to bring them into the current century. Restaurants and food & beverage services were over priced and excessive service charges. We didn't like that parts of our hotel area were constantly over populated with conference attendees and our breakfast place was always too busy and full due to this problem. For the price we were paying for our stay as we stayed 13 nights we expected more value for money and not competing with masses of conference attendees. Our regular housekeeper was very helpful and always very helpful.

Is getting old. As need a bit of a upgrade.. rooms is a bit squashie with a cot and small bed
