We stayed from 5th to 15th February 2012. On arrival at avista from Bankok we were presented with welcome fruit juice drinks and advised our room would be ready in 25 minutes... in actually fact it was ready in 5. Helpful reception staff gave us a quick tour of hotel and room and explained how everything worked, breakfast times etc.... More

We are staying fr 11 to 15 Feb, while we were swimming,we put four books at the chair besides the swimming pool, and then we went to the gym and then got back the books and found that one of the books was missing. Therefore, we asked the counter, and the staff replied that no one picked it up. The... More

Dear cchcck, It is extremely disappointing to read your version of events pertaining to the security of guest’s belongings at our hotel. I would like to point out here that the security of our guests and their belongings is our prime concern and we have installed more than 50 security cameras around the hotel to ensure that. Let me also... More

We had a marvelous 7 nights here. The staff were great and and the head chef worth hi weight in gold. Admittedly, we had a Grand Deluxe room on the top floor with a superb view of Kata Beach but I've never stayed in a better hotel. They had celebrations to mark the Chinese New Year whilst we were there... More

Great rooms, shower went hot and cold though. The hill you walk up to the hotel is nothing if you are fit. Breakfast could be improved as there was little choice re cereals and dried fruits. Sometimes bit slow at topping up the coffee. Lunch was excellent value especially on the set meals. The pool area and water feature are... More

We stayed a whole week at the Avista Resort at Kata Beach. The hotel is ok, however if you expect a 5 star resort, this is the wrong place...It reminds more of an all inclusive resort with foremost Russian guests. The rooms are alright however Housekeeping is not so good and leaves some space for improvement. To sum up, the... More

We stayed here for 7 days and enjoyed the stay very much. The check-in process was absolutely brilliant. The location of the hotel is great - but getting up the hill is quite a struggle (a shutle-service uphill - like the one offered by neighbouring hotels - would be quited helpful). Our room was really nice and spacious, overlooking the... More
