Sa Khu Hotel with Pool

"It’s right by the airport so it’s busy and you really don’t need a ride if you got 2 feet… literally right across the street! Now USA.. ain’t no washcloths so bring ya own.. otherwise the staff was great and they did let me stay until 1:30pm for free.. only reason you shouldn’t walk is if you don’t want to bust a sweat otherwise.. save your baht"

"We loved our time at this hotel and will definitely return if we go to Phuket. The beach is so beautiful with a stand that has the sweetest fruit. The staff were very friendly. My only two improvements would be more vegan food at breakfast and in the restaurants. I think the breakfast areas could be slightly cleaner as unfortunately it’s open air so there are some flies And then some small improvements to the room, ours was one of the renovated premium rooms but it had some issues (shower flooded a little). Despite that, we would still come back as the staff were friendly, helpful and they took note of little things like giving us extra water, towels and moisturizer after us asking. The spa and sports amenities were a lovely plus!"

"This resort was a major success in our Thailand vacation. The food was great, the amenities were enjoyable and the staff were absolutely respectful and polite."

"The pictures shown on the hotel site gives you expectations of the hotel being close to the beach - but those pictures showing pools etc are for the residence NOT the hotel itself. It’s a long walk from the hotel through the gardens to the road and beach. Hotel is in need of a little modernisation and upgrade, but overall reasonable value for money. Primarily the hotel is 80% Russian guests. We never used the restaurants at the hotel, except breakfast which was good. Overall, probably wouldn’t stay again. "

"Breakfast buffet amazing and a must do. Various happy hours through the property. Delicious drinks and food. Onsite restaurant a little pricey compared to outside restaurants. Our first room had a foul smell, had to switch rooms then was wonderful!! A little far from other areas but perfect for a peaceful quiet experience."

"What a lovely family friendly hotel. It so close to the beach with local amenities. Front desk staff when far and beyond our expectations ensuring we were allocated the room required. Thank you Zamzam "

"Beautiful new wing- the Vhari. Lots of things for families with kids to do. Swim, lazy river , water slides etc! "

"Room Air Conditioning sucks. The management says guests can not control the temperature below 22°C (71°F). That's ridiculous. With outside temperatures soaring above 33°C (90°F) and humidity levels 70%+, the rooms are hot. When you come into the room, tired and sweaty, it sucks because you can't get it below 22°C. I have never seen this in any other 5-star resorts. The furnitures are ordinary. The shampoo dispenser, once pressed, won't come back, you need to pull it up again. There are no elevators. Again, after a sweaty day, you have to climb plenty of steps to get to your room. The resort claims they are "on the beach". They are NOT. There's a small rocky beach, a very busy street, and then the resort entrance. The staff is very polite & respectful, but the majority of them don't speak English. Restaurants (except the Ocean View restaurant) have limited options. The resort is not ideally located (about 5 km from the "activity" place). The view from the room is certainly good. Overall, I WILL NOT COME BACK HERE. "

"All great. Just be prepared that its a large hotel >350 rooms and that it's built on a cliff. I had to climb some 80 stairs from the room or pool to the reception. "
