Phuket Beach Hotels

The room facilities are very new, and the hotel environment is beautiful. It's quite close to the airport, which was convenient as I had an early flight the next day. The hotel has its own clean, uncrowded beach, making it a great choice if you're traveling with kids and just want to relax at the hotel and play on the sand. For meals or grocery shopping, the hotel provides a tuk-tuk service every 50 minutes during the day and every 30 minutes in the evening. By the way, the pizza place nearby is pretty good, and there's also an elephant feeding experience with two elephants, which was quite fun.

I booked a one-bedroom villa, and after visiting and comparing several units, I truly believe Villa #68 is the absolute best among the one-bedroom options! The layout and size are optimal! The villa boasts a generous 550 sqm, offering huge space and a comfortable layout. It comes with a private pool that directly connects to the beach, making both privacy and the views impeccable. The amenities are also comprehensive: a sauna, indoor and outdoor dual showers, and an outdoor bathtub, instantly delivering a complete resort feel and comfort. The hotel itself has a very natural, ecological island vibe. We saw lizards several times on the villa rooftop and by the pool. At first, it was a bit scary, but they are actually very docile and completely non-aggressive – a rather unique wilderness experience. Breakfast was just okay, nothing special. The service was excellent throughout; all staff members were enthusiastic, friendly, meticulous, and attentive. A special shout-out to Liam, who provided dedicated service from start to finish, always responsive, patiently helping us arrange all our needs with professionalism and warmth! However, there are a few objective points that deduct from the overall score: Firstly, the hotel's landscaping and gardening are rather ordinary compared to other resorts in the same category. Most of the public areas are sandy, with sparse and poorly maintained plants, making them generally not photo-worthy. Secondly, the in-room facilities are a bit dated, especially the bathroom. The quality of the fixtures and sanitary ware like the toilet and showerhead feels quite common, which doesn't quite match the Luxury Collection brand positioning. Getting to the island involves a bit of a journey, from the airport to the pier and then a speedboat transfer, but it feels worth it upon arrival. If you're looking for an extra-large private villa, private pool, direct beach access, and excellent service, this place is still highly recommended. However, if you are sensitive to the public area landscaping and the newness of indoor hardware, you might want to do a bit more research.

I had a wonderful stay at Graceland Resort—I can’t be any happier. I arrived pretty late at night, and all I asked for was a nice, quiet room. The front desk lady Jenny at that time of night was incredibly considerate and sweet .She upgraded me to a pool room, and I truly appreciate that. Also, there was a lovely cleaning lady Kanyakorn who cleaned me room every day and was very attentive and pleasant , she let me borrowed the iron exceptionally longer period of time😅Overall, I felt taken care of and very welcomed. The service and hospitality were excellent. The breakfast was okay—I’d rate it about 6.7 out of 10—but the hotel itself is beautiful. It has a couple of pools and it’s right on the beach, with many restaurants around. Hotel got a small gym as well which is good enough for few days workout and oh yes they offer complimentary half an hour morning trainings as well which was nice . I also remember a v kind gesture from them i ordered late night food and they forgot to deliver to bring and on being reminded the food and beverage manager felt terribly sorry and wanted to send free meal next day which wasn’t needed for me so I declined politely but they were so sweet they still ended up sending a fruit platter to room.In all , with such great hospitality, I would definitely come back to the hotel. Customer service was awfully wonderful.

The hotel environment is pretty good, located right by Patong Beach. You can cross the road from the back exit and be directly on Patong Beach. The surrounding area is also very lively, and it's about a 10-minute walk to Jungceylon. There are also plenty of 7-Elevens and restaurants nearby, making it super convenient to stay here. The hotel's kids' swimming pool has a good variety of slides, which is a lot of fun. However, there were too many people checking in, and we had to queue for a very long time. We didn't get our room key until 3:10 PM, having arrived at 1:00 PM. After finally getting the key card, there was no guidance or instructions whatsoever. We had to find the building number and room on the map ourselves. Then, we waited for our luggage in the room for about 40 minutes, even calling twice to chase it up. This part of the experience was really poor, and I hope they can improve it.

Hotel is in a great location in walking distance from shopping, restaurants and nightlife. Breakfast selection changed daily. Room was spacious and clean. Beds are a on the hard side but staff very accommodating with mattress toppers. Would def stay again

Why are there so many negative reviews? This hotel is excellent in terms of both facilities and service! The environment is very natural and pristine, with a massive garden, lush trees, and modern architecture. The pool is huge, with several shallow play areas, perfect for families with children under 6. The main pool is 1.4 meters deep – imagine relaxing in the water while gazing at the sea! There's also a bar right by the pool. The hotel's private beach, although the waves are too strong for swimming, boasts water the same clear, blue-green color as the pool – absolutely beautiful. The hotel breakfast is incredibly rich, offering not only standard Western options but also many local specialties like curries, pandan cake, sticky rice desserts, and Thai milk tea – all delicious! There's also a wide selection for lunch and dinner. The prices are comparable to outside restaurants, and while there's a service charge, it saves you the time and effort of going out, making it ideal for lazy guests like us who just want to relax at the hotel. The hotel also has a spa and massage services, along with a gym. There are different activities scheduled daily. The staff are friendly, polite, and always willing to help. For payments, credit cards, Alipay, and WeChat Pay are all accepted. Guests come from all over the world, truly a mini United Nations, which is very interesting. However, the hotel's location is a bit remote, which might not suit those who prefer a livelier atmosphere.

If your room is located before A East 510, you'll likely have an amazing view. So, it depends on your luck. We happened to stay in 510, and it offered a fantastic sea view. Personal experience: As someone who enjoys fitness, I can confidently say that this hotel's gym is the best I've encountered in any hotel. It's well-equipped, clean, and spacious, which I'm extremely satisfied with. The entire hotel is quite large, so taking a stroll around is also a nice option. Exiting through the hotel's back door, staff members are available to help you hail a taxi and cross the road, which is a thoughtful touch. The hotel breakfast is also very generous. If you've booked breakfast, this one meal will be enough for the day. There are also some small animals like peacocks, chickens, and cats around the hotel, which children will find very entertaining. Overall, I'm very satisfied. It's worth staying here. The only minor drawback is that 7-Eleven stores are about a 10-minute walk away, so on hot days, it can feel a bit far.

The overall environment here is truly exceptional, nestled amidst beautiful gardens with a private beach where you can forage for seafood in the evenings, though there isn't a huge bounty. The 'Cute Pet Park' from 9:00-10:00 AM and 4:00-5:00 PM is perfect for kids, featuring large tortoises, the opportunity to hold and feed small rabbits, bottle-feed piglets, and even feed parrots that crack sunflower seeds. The staff are incredibly proactive, constantly handing you various feeds and milk bottles. The swimming pool is massive, and the rooms with pool access look fantastic – definitely something to try next time. On the downside, the pool and other activities close a bit too early. The hotel is also a bit far from the city center, so once the pool closes in the evening, there's not much to do if you don't go out. There are no lifeguards at the pool throughout the day, so you're responsible for your own safety while swimming and playing, although the water depth is only 1.5 meters. Additionally, while they advertise many activities, all water facilities and most activities require an extra charge. These prices are also a bit higher than other hotels, so you can pick and choose what you'd like to participate in.

Spectacular views of the sea from the rooms make this resort a winner for feelings of peace and solitude. My room included a ceiling fan and a separate rain shower next to the bath tub. A massive free breakfast buffet starts the day for most guests, with changing options on a daily basis. Before breakfast I walked down the steep driveway to the private beach to swim either in the sea or the small pool next to it. At 7 am there is nobody around. One morning I took out a kayak (one hour free) which had stunning panoramic views. There are two swimming pools by the resort’s main building and both are delightful for swimming and relaxing. Nothing much to do in the evening and the TV channel selection could be expanded with movie channels (e.g., HBO, Cinemax), educational channels like Discovery Asia, and nature channels like BBC Earth and Love Nature. I partook in a 90 minute herbal pack massage which was a bit pricy but very professional. Both lunch and dinner menus have sufficient variety of dishes and food quality was good. Staff were always helpful. In summary, Supalai Scenic Bay Resort is a wonderfully serene experience at a very reasonable room price.          

Overall, I had a pleasant stay at Sunset Beach Resort. The facilities are a bit dated, but they are well maintained, which I truly appreciate. You can tell the resort takes good care of what it has. The location is generally fine, though the beach directly in front of the resort isn’t the best. Patong Beach is about a 300+ meter walk away, which is manageable, just something to note for guests who expect a beachfront swimming spot. The only part that slightly affected our experience was the shuttle service — not a big issue, but a memorable one. On 1 February, around 5:30 PM, we informed the front desk that we needed the 6:30 PM shuttle to Bangla Street. We even confirmed it twice and were told to sit and wait, as the staff would notify us when the shuttle arrived. We made sure they knew exactly where we were waiting. By 7:00 PM, after no update, we went back to the front desk only to be told that the shuttle had already left. The staff apologized and admitted she had overlooked us, and arranged the next shuttle. Nothing serious — just an unexpected extra 30 minutes of “resort relaxation time” we hadn’t planned for. 😊 Still, aside from this hiccup, the stay was comfortable, and with a bit more attention to shuttle coordination, the experience would be even better.
