The hotel is under construction, this was not mentioned on the website, it is located up the hill, our room was on the top floor, we had to take 85 stairs to get to the room. We had to take taxi to get to the top of the hill to get to the hotel if we went out for sightseeing or back from the beach. If it was mentioned that the hotel doesn’t have elevator, I would not reserve this hotel. Also to mention that the neighbourhood hotel is also under construction, we heard the noise at midnight, we brought it up to the manager we were told it’s coming from the other hotel. We also found lizard on the table in the room. Long story short, if we ever decide to travel back to Phuket, I would not book this hotel.

Hotel is great, Nice Location near Kata Beach, I booked a family Room. Had booked with Half board and enjoyed the breakfast and Lunches and Dinners. Food was good, Service at restaurant was great. Amenities like Pool table, Futsal games, will kill time and my Children enjoyed the stay thoroughly throughout the 4 nights and 5 days stay at the hotel. Housekeeping was not up to the mark and had to remind them of the few items, which they have taken the feedback and helped with service next day. But for such a renowned hotel, the service should be proactively done. Water bottles were requested. Hotel Room was not given on time and the hotel team compensated it with a late checkout on demand. Overall stay was good. But hope the team takes the feedback on checkin process and housekeeping and become much more better.

Amazing staff, gorgeous view, Celiac safe

Great sea view room was spotless and comfortable. Wonderful, consistently professional staff at every level. Alon gave great help from the front desk, and Din was the best waiter you could ask for. My wife has Celiac, and we enjoyed the "half board" plan. We ate breakfast and dinner at the restaurant for 8 days, and she didn't get glutened even once! A great plan for people who need to eat gluten free. The chefs were extremely helpful, and all the wait staff were knowledgeable. Yes, it's a small climb back up to the hotel, but their shuttle to the beach every half hour helps a lot. Can't wait to stay here again the next time we visit Phuket!

They are very generous with the bottled water. The dining area was always hot. I knew it was a family resort but I didn't think kids would be in all pools. The shuttle service to Kata Beach is convenient. The room was very nice with a lot of closet space.
