Katathani Phuket Beach Resort

Phuket, Thailand

Virgin rating

The hotel

In a secluded bay, overlooking a beach regarded as the most beautiful on Phuket, this is certainly an idyllic holiday choice. Soft golden sand to glide along, sunsets to admire, and, of course, beautiful accommodation, ranging from Junior Suites to those set back amongst trees and tropical flowers. Pampering pursuits include a full-service spa and a beauty salon, ensuring you look and feel your best. As well as lots of sports activities you can get involved in more cultural endeavours, take a Thai cooking class and learn how to carve those fancy fruit decorations or enjoy a workout whilst learning the art of Thai boxing. Finally, a word about those restaurants, there are several to choose from, serving Thai and Western delights for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There’s also La Scala for Italian cuisine and light music, plus several beach bars for an enticing tropical cocktail!

All the staff are very attentive and go to any lengths to help you. There are many restaurants to choose from all serving food of an excellent standard. You can choose from many different cuisines from Thai to Mediterranean. The pools are many and therefore never seem crowded.

This is a wonderful resort and although it accommodates a large number of guests, you never feel cramped for space. The staff are very pleasant and eager to ensure that you have the best possible holiday. The pools are fantastic and being right on the beach, you can swim in the ocean as well.

We stayed here five nights. Our tour company booked us a regular room, which was fine. If I’d known, I’d have upgraded us to an ocean view room, but they were already full when we arrived. Our room was noisy and small, plus had a constantly blinking light in the ceiling. When we informed the front desk that it also smelled bad, housekeeping did a deep clean that took care of it. Other than having the worst room class, the hotel was great! Staff is wonderful, breakfast buffet is good, and when my son got food poisoning from another restaurant, they got us to a local doctor and got us a ride back, not charging us for the transportation. The spa was my favorite part! Went twice. Got facials the first time, and they were professional and excellent at extractions and massage. Got a Thai massage the second time, and it was unbelievable. She totally noodled me. A great hotel in Phuket! With traffic, it does take nearly two hours to get here from the airport, FYI. Read less
