This was our 4th visit to Cape Panwa and its our home from home. we were welcomed early morning with a very well recieved cold drink and towel and the reception staff were curtious and very happy to see us. We were located in T-Block on the 3rd floor and had the most amazing view over looking the bay, the room was clean, extreamly large and all facilities you would require and house keeping were 100% every day. We were with TUI on a full board bases which is the first time we had done this and were not disoppointed. Pools, we used the pool on the beach which has a lovely view over the water but you can't go without dipping in the top pool and seeing the lovely smile of Varoon each day, a credit to this hotel. We spent most of our time on the beach where you can get the tram down to save your legs and enjoy the lovely breeze, sun loungers were not an issue and you could choose the location you wanted, we sat back towards the beautiful gardens and enjoyed the wildlife all around us. The grounds people don't get enough praise on the great work they do in the heat, so thank you to the grounds team. We also had lunch in the Bamboo Bar and all meals were hot and full of flavour, thanks to Sandy and the team for the great service and smiles, also Cafe Andaman do a fantastic menu for all but you have the added bonus of Jennifier and Natacha serving you and making your day feel special. Evenings we mostly had dinner at Top of the Reef where the food and service is sublime, and you get to hear the beautiful voice of Ice and her piano skills from the Otter's Bar. Don't get us wrong the Panwa House with it's stunning Thai food and view and Cafe Andaman with its Thai and Western menu are also wonderful places to eat. after our dinner we would head on out to the light house bar where you can do happy hour between 9:30pm & 10:30pm and listen to the Panwa Trio which will play all your favourite tunes to sing along too, we love these guys, you also get Simon and Thidarat smiling, singing and making you feel happier than ever and never wanting to go home, miss you guys. Even with Covid-19 going on the staff at the Cape Panwa were second to none with their approch, all the staff had a smile and stopped to chat and make you feel special, we know what hard times this will be for all and wanted to say Thank You for making our time with you amazing and this is why we would always choose your hotel to come back too. See You All Soon

We have just returned from a 6 night stay at Cape Panwa. This was our 2nd visit to this hotel. We had a superior room, the room was great, extremely clean and had amazing views over the sea. Breakfast is a superb buffet with a wide choice to suit all nationalities. The food was always fresh and piping hot, and the choice of dishes changed daily. The ladies on the egg station made the best omelettes and fried eggs. The cleanliness of the restaurant was 100%. The hotel is situated on a hillside so there are quite a few steps but there is a vehicular tram that runs from the pool down to the private hotel beach. There is also a free shuttle bus down to the seafront where there is a nice selection of bars and restaurants. The sand is generally white and soft but there are rocks out at sea which makes swimming very difficult at low tide. The bamboo bar on the hotels private beach is great. The staff were very attentive and the one meal we had there was lovely. Within a few hundred yards of the hotel there is a laundrette where we got all our laundry done before returning home. Excellent service and cheap! Just allow 24 hours or so before your departure. Next to the laundrette there is Divas where we had the most fabulous Thai, oil massages and foot scrubs over 2 days. An hours treatment which is of a really high standard cost just £7.50. The ladies were so friendly and kind. The treatments would cost at least £80 in the UK. Next to Divas there is a small bar called Uncle Jon,s. Jon is so friendly and we spent several hours chatting to other travellers and hearing Jon,s stories of life in Thailand. This is a really basic bar more like a garage but the atmosphere and supporting the locals was well worth it, and if you are a football fan there is a tv on mute in the background as Jon is a football fan. We asked for a late check out room and were given this for 2 hours free of charge. However there are showers available if a late check out is not available. I really don’t understand the negative reviews, this hotel was lovely and I would defiantly recommend it.

Cape Panwa hotel was the last leg of our Thailand trip. We arrived by taxi and was greeted by reception with a cold drink and a warm welcome. We were swiftly shown to our rooms and then went to lunch. We booked through TUI on Full board basis, this was with a voucher system where you could go to any of the restaurants but if you went off the set menu you had to pay extra. We found the food fantastic, although were not keen of the Italian restaurant in the sister hotel. The top of the Reef was our favourite but eating in the Panwa house was a unique experience especially as we had a dining room to ourselves. Our bedroom was spacious, very clean and had a sea view albeit through the trees. Everywhere was spotless, the staff were very friendly and polite. There were trips available from a desk by the side in reception but because of the Coronavirus we didn’t go on any of them. We used the shuttle bus but there wasn’t much going on in the town. But there was a seven eleven. There is a funicular railway that took you to the beach where there were plenty of sun beds and umbrellas, theres an infinity pool and the Bamboo beach bar which served good snacks and lunches and the staff were great. If you like swimming in the sea you can only swim in high tide so this might not be the beach for you, but that wouldn’t put me off returning to this wonderful hotel. If you love great weather, lovely beaches, friendly people, great food, wonderful service with a smile go to Thailand and consider Cape Panwa hotel. We are hoping to go back.
