Not really a hotel, more a cluster of serviced studio apartments with large sleeping areas, kitchens and a bathroom. Recently constructed and very well maintained and well equipped although they cut corners on the size of tv sets which sometimes require binoculars when being viewed from the bed. A microwave would be very welcome also. There is a small pool... More

We stayed at Taro for 6 nights. The rooms are lovely very spacious and well laid out. Really great staff who are happy to assist with all needs. They classify themselves as self catering but this is very far from the truth. Two hot plates of which only one worked at a very low heat cannot be classified as self... More

I joined a friend staying at Taro Hotel and we moved up to the penthouse (2 bedrooms) for 3 weeks. Wow! The best view, comfy beds, flat screen TV's (3), full kitchen, dining area, private balcony, lounge area and a pool downstairs with a waterfall. It's a short walk to Kamala beach and a nice 25 minute hike to private... More

So, I did a LOT of research before I booked any hotel before my arrival in Phuket and finally decided on Taro for many reasons. I was still a little nervous about my choice until I arrived. Airport transfer waiting, rooms immaculately clean with maid service 2-3 times a week, friendly and accommodating staff, and only a five minute walk... More

A wonderful place has to be there for two times 5 months together they are so sweet and helping with everything, and it's clean and new this is a place for someone who a nice place to be.

Taro hotel offers beautiful rooms that are modern and spotless. The pool was great as it was very clean and no other guests were using it, however I think that if the hotel was busy and other people were in it then it would feel too small. When we first arrived at the hotel we felt as though we were... More

1. Location About 15-20min walk to the beach but we found it manageable. My wife was 4mths pregnant and we found it good exercise and thought the 'studio' apartment at the price was worth it. In fact, the location is in a traditional Muslim village so you get a glimpse of real Thai people's lifestyle. Also, there are a few... More

Great place at a perfect location between Patong and Surin and in the middle of Kamala, if you just take a motorbike or some other transport you are good to go, walking to the beach is around 10 minutes. Rooms are nice, but we took the studio, we stayed one night in the little bungalow rooms but they are nice... More

Myself and a couple of friends stayed two nights at the Taro hotel January 2012. We met the owner Terry, he is a great guy. I recommend staying there, the rooms are new construction.
