4-Star Hotels in Phuket

Brilliant spot, amazing accommodation. The rooms were lovely and had everything we needed. The pool was divine. Great idea to have 2 separate pools to ensure adequate access for all guests. Breaky buffet was delish. Cocktails also amazing. Easy walk to the beach, markets, Bangla walking street, and everything inbetween. Only downside is there isnt enough sun lounges by the pool as many people go out early and reserve them with towels, leaving it difficult for people who are actually jn the pool to use them.

The hillside resort is a n excellent place for a visitors far from crowded places and there’s a delicious food restaurant friendly staffs. I definitely recommend it if you’re preferred to stay quiet and peaceful areas.

I had a fantastic experience at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff impressed me with their exceptional attention to detail—they were friendly, thoughtful, and always one step ahead in making sure guests felt comfortable. The room was spotless, spacious, and beautifully designed, offering a great balance of comfort and functionality. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and everything from the linens to the bathroom amenities felt premium. The hotel’s facilities are top-notch—modern, well-maintained, and clearly cared for. I especially enjoyed the game room, which was a fun and unexpected bonus. It’s perfect for relaxing or spending time with friends and family. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations. I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, modern place to stay with excellent service and thoughtful amenities.

The hotel is located right in the tourist area, close to shopping malls. I booked a room with 3 beds, and it was very clean and spacious. There's a swimming pool right behind the room, which felt nice and private. I'd suggest improving the breakfast; I feel it could be better. The staff are lovely and friendly. I'd also like to see the hotel offer comprehensive motorcycle rental services.

We had a fantastic stay at the Gig Hotel. The location is excellent - close to Jungceylon, shopping, restaurants, and everything you need. The rooms were very comfortable, clean, and well appointed. Breakfast offered a large selection of choices each morning, which was a great start to the day. One of the highlights was definitely the rooftop infinity pool. The sunset views from up there are absolutely amazing. There are also money exchange and laundry services within about 50 metres of the hotel, which made everything very convenient. The entrance ramp is a little steep, but we still found it quite accessible with both a walking stick and a motorised wheelchair. The porters were also extremely eager to assist whenever needed. What really made our stay special was the staff. From the front desk and customer service team to the cleaning and maintenance staff, everyone was always welcoming, cheerful, and willing to go out of their way to help. Their friendliness and attention to detail really stood out and made us feel genuinely valued as guests. Overall, we were extremely happy with our stay and would happily return.

Overall, it was impeccable – a fantastic hotel. The location was also good, and the pool was incredibly beautiful; my wife took tons of amazing photos there! The staff, especially Lid, and the front desk were excellent. They were very enthusiastic in answering our questions and even brought things to our room. I gave them panda keychains, and they were all thrilled to recognize them as 'panda.' A note for Chinese friends: make sure they don't assign you to Building 2 or 3. Your room card should start with '10xx' or '11xx' (for Building 1), otherwise, it's a very long walk from Buildings 2 or 3. We reported this to the front desk the next day, and they moved us to Building One, which was much more convenient. To rent a motorbike, turn right out of the hotel. There's a shop on your front right, and the guy there is great! I highly recommend renting from him; no scams or hidden tricks. I rented for 200 THB a day, and when I extended it for an extra day and only had 160 THB in change upon return, he just said 'it's okay.' I was really touched, perhaps because I had filled up the tank for him. Regarding gas, 50 THB worth of gas is probably enough for two days of use. I got it with three bars of fuel, and when I returned it with one bar left, I filled it up. I don't know why, but 100 THB completely filled the tank. Be careful when renting a scooter. I rode motorbikes all over Phuket – Patong, Karon, Kata, cliff sunsets, etc. – and never got caught. But in Bangkok, I got caught and had to contribute 1000 THB to the Thai treasury!

This time in Phuket, I chose the quiet and less crowded Surin Beach 🌅, which boasts beautiful sunsets. It's also closer to the airport without being noisy. The hotel facilities are quite good. There's a huge interconnected pool area, complete with a two-story spiral waterslide 🛝. I was a bit hesitant to try it at first 👙, but I gave it a go and it was pretty fun! 🥳 They also have plenty of activities for both adults and kids. I even joined a water aerobics class, which was great – perfect after a day of lounging! 😆 As for breakfast, it looked like there was a good variety, but when I actually tried to pick things, there wasn't a whole lot that stood out. Check-in took quite a while initially, and they even gave me the wrong room. However, when a family member accidentally scraped themselves at the pool the next day, the staff's attitude in handling the injury was very good.

Compared to two years ago, this experience was much worse. The service has deteriorated, and the facilities are old. There was peacock droppings on the paths that hadn't been cleaned, and many railings were broken. However, this is still the best place for snorkeling on Racha Island. If you don't care about the hardware and service and only focus on the scenery, this place is fine. Cons: 1. The service has completely declined. I had to drag my luggage a long way, carrying it up and down, on and off boats, and it was very hot. 2. The speedboat seats were so cramped I couldn't stretch my legs, much narrower than a budget airline. 3. No fridge in the room. On a hot day, if you want cold drinks, you have to buy ice at the restaurant for 20 THB a cup. 4. Neither the lobby nor the restaurant had air conditioning, it was incredibly hot, especially during the 3 hours before check-in and 2 hours after check-out while waiting for the boat. It was boiling. 5. The air conditioning leaked and soaked the entire room. 6. No curtains, so the sun was shining directly on my face in the morning. 7. No phone in the room. To contact the front desk, I had to use my own mobile, which was inconvenient for everything. 8. The sofa was dirty. 9. The restaurant food wasn't very good. Other restaurants on the island are much better. 10. No beach access, getting to the beach was a hassle. 11. Don't go sea fishing here. It's 3000 THB for 2 hours, which is far worse than the 3000 THB for a whole day on Koh Lipe. Plus, the boat barely went out, and we basically caught nothing. The experience was terrible. Go to Koh Lipe for fishing; the service and experience are much better. Pros: 1. Good snorkeling. 2. Chinese communication was fine throughout, no language barrier. Many Chinese tourists, so it was lively. It's truly become unscrupulous since it changed to a Chinese owner. To save money, they've removed fridges, phones, and curtains. They're selling rooms that are basically unfinished shells with incomplete facilities and no regard for the user experience. All the thoughtful details that Thai hotels usually have are gone. There's a reason for the low rating here.

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.          

The hotel is nice, secluded: there’s nothing much around it, which can be a good or a bad thing. I loved the private sandy beach, now it’s high season, and yet there were maximum 10 people at a time. So it feels all for yourself. I got upgraded and stayed in a little house with private pool and exit to the beach. Thanks for that. BUT there were 3 things I didn’t like: 1. noise, I don’t know, probably air conditioning or pool cleaning machine of A NEIGHBOR HOUSE, not even mine. In my room the AC and the fridge were also loud, but I turned them off. Yet I could not turn off the neighbor’s ones. At night it was hard to sleep because of that sound. 2. the pool cleaning — mine didn’t have that. The water there is still , was not changes next day, and I am not sure if was changed before I arrived 🤷♀️ In the neighbor pool I can see the water is always floats and changes, in mine not. 3. Every time I bought something and wanted to pay with my card, I had to go to reception. Every meal, every cocktail. That was disturbing. It was my last day of my holiday and I was short on cash. I thought it wouldn’t be a problem to pay by card, I could do it. But every time I had to climb 7 staircases to do it.
