5 stars for the attentiveness of the staff and the overall experience. Breakfast: Fantastic selection catering to all palates. Breakfast is served until 10:30, with staff ensuring all items are replenished right up to closing time. Navigation: As the name suggests, Diamond Cliff is built on elevated terrain, so it’s best suited for those comfortable with steps and slopes. The golf buggy/transport service ends at 11:30 p.m., which can be limiting since Patong comes alive at night. Returning after midnight means navigating quite a climb—an adventure that may not be as enjoyable at that hour! Overall: The resort is wonderful, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Racism: I’ve read some reviews on TripAdvisor mentioning racism, but in my experience, these concerns are unfounded. The local people are incredibly welcoming, humble, and respectful. It’s important to approach conversations with the same respect they offer, and in my experience, that respect is always reciprocated. Read less

I left this resort literally a few hours ago and decided to write this review at Phuket International Airport whilst awaiting my flight back to the UK. My wife and I stayed at Diamond Cliff for 14 nights and had a great experience. Pros The hotel staff are amazing without exception and this includes the reception staff. I want to also give a special mention to June Win who was our main chambermaid, who was without doubt is one of the most pleasant and happiest hotel staff members I 've ever met. The sea views from the rooms are great The food and it's variety especially the breakfast was excellent The location of the hotel makes it a great place to branch out and explore Phuket. The Golf Cart style shuttles that transport holidaymakers up and down the hill from reception were a massive bonus and don't stop running until 11.30pm Cons Not a lot wrong in my opinion and certainly the staff , more than make up for any defiencies Racism As a black man from the UK this particular topic isn't new to me unfortunately, however after reading a few recent comments from Indian holidaymakers complaining about the racisn received by the hotel staff , I wish to give my point of view on this based on my personal observations during my stay. In my experience Thai people in general are both humble and extremely polite and the racism some of the Indians who have posted negative comments refer too may be historically based, but that said I feel that this situation is made worse by the attitude of some of the Indian holidaymakers when interacting with the hotel staff . A simple "please" and " thank you" given to the hotel staff would go a long way to eliminate any possible issues. Read less

This was our first visit to Thailand and I am so glad we chose this hotel. It was such a brilliant stay and nothing is too much trouble for their staff. Our children now have said they don’t want to go on holiday in Europe anymore, they just want to come here. My children only went to the children’s club for halloween. They had such a fabulous time trick or treating and got more sweets than they would have at home. The rooms were amazing and had such incredible reviews. We all enjoyed the water slide pool and additionally loved to relax in the ocean view pool. We booked all our trips in the lobby and this was such a good service and brilliant value for money. I have absolutely nothing to fault with this hotel. We would love to be fortunate enough to come back. If you are thinking of booking this hotel, don’t hesitate. It’s got ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ from us! We have loved our 14 night stay. We hope to see you again very soon! Read less
