Phuket, Thailand

Virgin rating

The hotel

Let the warm breeze of the Andaman Sea soothe your senses as you pad barefoot across manicured lawns and submerge your toes into cool sand at a tidal beach. Experiences at Vijitt Resort in Phuket are as delectable as you'd imagine with romance and relaxation waiting around every secluded corner. No smooth pebble has been left unturned when it comes to your comfort with guest villas providing a contemporary and calming influence on what is quintessentially the perfect Thai getaway. Once you've tired of lazing on your private balcony or terrace you'll discover that the Vijitt boasts a wide range of activities and from infinity pools to an excellent kids' club, there's more to Thailand than mangoes and sticky rice. Of course, if you do fancy indulging in a few Thai delicacies then look no further than the Vijitt's two restaurants which both offer the freshest local ingredients, as well as the chance to dine from the comfort of your villa. Completing your day with a visit to the straw-roofed salas at the spa will no doubt invigorate every one of your senses and after a cheeky tropical cocktail as the sun sets you can rest assured that tomorrow you get to do it all over again.

What an awful place to go! If you are booked in here, cancel, pay the cancellation charge - and book somewhere else ahead of time…unless you would like a horrible stay in Rawai, of course! Staff are clueless and unhelpful, of course the structure and poor standard of the hotel not being wholly their fault. Despite this, they are not prompt or attentive to any issues raised. Food is microwaved and average. A man wearing a blue mask stomping around the restaurant, ordering waitresses around doesn’t exactly create a relaxing dining experience. A bad attempt of bread rolls served prior to the meal, hard sweet brioche rolls with butter and balsamic vinegar. Let’s not forget the “live” entertainment… I’ll not even go there, out of respect for the poor guy on piano. Let’s just say, it was not good. A british cafe over the road, which offered an alternative to the food inside the hotel but this was closed and was by no way chic, stylish or appealing. I can liken the hotel and the immediate area to Benidorm, on a very bad day. Save yourself, cancel your booking, stay elsewhere. Read less

2 couples, individual villas positioned overlooking the sea. Chauffeured golf buggies to get you up and down the hill and chorus of frogs every evening! Lush, tropical, peaceful and calm. The whole resort exuded peace and tranquility. The open air rain shower within the villa had views over the bay and the picture French doors at the end of the bed also overlooked the bay. The infinity pool was warm and luxurious and a drink/snack service was available from your poolside sunbed. The restaurants offered fresh, tasty and beautifully presented food that included Thai and international dishes. The cocktail menu was varied and exciting. The spa provided a peaceful haven for a luxurious massage to rival any high-end UK offering with masseuse trained at Wat Pho and the staff were brilliant, friendly, helpful, fun and happy. We got to know Maria, Lily, Gate, Cute and Joe really well and nothing was too much trouble. Our attempts at basic Thai were appreciated. We couldn’t fault the resort and whilst some may consider the villa’s tired we like to think of them as rustic. On arrival we had a fresh fruit platter, small biscuits, a bottle of wine and then daily complimentary water. We will definitely visit again!!! Read less

Excellent place to stay, people were very nice, facilities very good A++ Infinite pools were awesome. Food was good, the only think that I can complain is the food from the Thai restaurant didn’t have enough flavor we were expecting, other than tag it was very good.

We stayed in Pool Villa #4. The resort is beautiful, the staff is great. Tommy was fantastic and always so eager to help. He helped us book a tour that we would have known nothing about. Even on his days off, he called to see if we were ok or if we needed anything. AMAZING! The room was beautiful and comfortable. The private pool was so relaxing.… Read more
We stayed in Pool Villa #4. The resort is beautiful, the staff is great. Tommy was fantastic and always so eager to help. He helped us book a tour that we would have known nothing about. Even on his days off, he called to see if we were ok or if we needed anything. AMAZING! The room was beautiful and comfortable. The private pool was so relaxing. The main pool was also amazing and beautiful. Breakfast buffet was great. Drinks at the pool was so delicious 😋. We ordered room service a few times and everything was good. The A.C. blasted very cold air, the fridge actually kept things cold unlike most hotel fridges. It even has a small freezer that comes with an ice tray. The only issue we had was the shower. It was either scalding hot or freezing cold. We tried everything. When we eventually found the right temp, it would only stay on that temp for a minute or less. Even if you didn't touch it, it would change on its on. Not a huge issue but definitely annoying. We would definitely book this resort again because everything besides the water temperature was perfect. Oh, another thing, you can swim in the ocean, but once low tide hits, the ocean basically disappears and you'll see people walking across what used to be an ocean an hour ago. It's weird but cool. In the morning, the ocean returns and you can swim again. Read less

After travelling to Thailand for my husbands 40th birthday celebrations for 2 weeks, something as a family of 5 we have saved all year for and looked forward too it’s with sadness and upset I write this review. I never normally would leave a bad review as I like to give the hotel/vendor a fair chance to rectify the problem/issue, but on this occasion both my husband and I have had no response to a major issue. During our stay at the Vijitt resort a pair of expensive swimming shorts went missing from our room for several days, after a huge fuss made by myself they were mysteriously returned to us by the hotel cleaner who had no explanation for where they had been or how they found there way back to me. During this time my husband noticed that £20 had gone missing from his wallet. This was reported immediately to the reception staff, a lady called Vee. Vee extremely apologetic and visibly upset at this. We asked Vee if anything like this had happened before and she reluctantly told us yes there have been reports of theft from hotel guests on numerous occasions. As Vee was extremely apologetic we accepted her apology as we didn’t want to ruin what had been a beautiful celebration prior. We were asked to leave a positive review. On our arrival to the airport an hour later I found that £100 was missing from my purse which was in a LOCKED SAFE! We reported this again immediately, to no response from any hotel staff. We have no been home over a week and after trying to contact the hotel staff multiple times we have no response to this matter. This is unacceptable and a warning to anyone thinking of staying at this resort to be mindful of theft! Read less
