Not the nicest room but we loved it just the same. The staff could not have been nicer. Lovely buffet breakfast. A tiered hotel - so lots of steps. There are pools on each tier. Best Thai chicken skewers we found while in Thailand. We were fortunate to be able to stay on the top tier were we played lots... More

We stayed in this hotel for about two weeks in February 2012. We found that most of the comments by previous reviewers were on the mark. Our room was on the fourth level and had a beautiful view of the beach and the sea. Since it faced west, it was too hot to use in the afternoons. It was great... More

Stayed in Feb2012. Hotel fine, rooms fairly spacious and clean, everything works. Hotel nicely spaced out, pools nice,although,as often happens, not enough sunbeds. Buffet breakfast good,everything seemed fresh, and was replenished as necessary. Some of the male staff on reception were surly and unhelpful -not great when checking in, not the sort of service and attitude that is the norm... More

This was our first trip to Phuket. I highly recommend this property as it is no more than 200 meters from the beach and has incredible views. Staff was wonderful, friendly, attentive. One issue - the Wi-Fi was not included and the reception was terrible. But then again, I should not have been working during our vacation! Do not waste... More

Stayed here for about a week, having chosen the hotel after reading TripAdvisor reviews. The stairs mentioned were not too heavy (all over the place, and plateaus between levels), and we never had to wait to use the elevator (which we mostly did). Not the hotel of your choice if you are in very bad shape or have walking difficulties,... More

We have been traveling for the past five months and we have been paying $25-$60 a night for accommodation. So approximately $110 a night was not normal practice for us. However, we enjoyed the hotel for the following reasons: 3 pools, great buffet breakfast(included in the price of the room), stunning view from our balcony, well appointed room, and excellent...
