Very nice place though the room is small without bath tube. The beautiful private beach and kind service is very impressing. Their staff can easily remember what s your favorate food even we only stay there for 3 days. By the way, this is a lucky place, after the second day we live in, we found my wife pregnant. This is the most great news for our family. Very Nice Team and place.

Accommodation and facilities:
Отель отличный. Очень удачное расположение - прямо на берегу моря, весь утопает в цветах - романтика. Прекрасное обслуживание и в номерах и на пляже. Ежедневно приносят в номера тарелку фруктов (комплимент от отеля), а вечером зажигают ароматические свечи, расправляют кровать, раскладывают на подушки орхидеи. На пляже шезлонги с 2 комплектами полотенец, вода со льдом, влажные полотенца для лица, и фрутовое канапе - все бесплатно. Сам пляж очень чистый, песок; рядом есть камни и там все плавают в масках, можно увидеть даже мурен. Ресторан в отеле хороший, но дорогой (хотя разок все-равно нужно его посетить)) Рядом с отелем очень много разных ресторанчиков. Также рядом нахоятся тук-туки, очень удобно. Вообщем, отличный отель.

Thank you for the excellent organization.

Accommodation and facilities:
Absolutely beautiful location, wonderful service, and delicious food. An upcoming renovation will freshen up the rooms, then all will be perfect. The Sawadee Bookig Agent booked a cab for Airport transport instead of contacting Mom Tri - which meant we had no water for the lengthy ride from the airport. All was well on the return transfer in Mom Tri s own vehicle with water and cool towels!

Accommodation and facilities:
The resort is ideally located right on Kata Beach. The Resorts Restaurant & bar area allow for great views of the beach. The Resort needs a makeover though, the rooms & common areas seem dated and need attention. A lot of the wood work is deteriorated with lack of attention. Service was Ok but not great. We enjoyed our stay here, but probably would not return to this resort.
Reservation service:
Great booking service. Will definately use again

Accommodation and facilities:
Yes, the location is very good, the beach is very very nice and it is lovely to wake up in the morning and have breakfast by the beach, or have dinner there. The restaurant is perfect! The interior of our room, however, is really worn out. Even though the sheets are clean and the bathroom is clean, the rooms are old, the furniture can use a renovation. Also, there was a bad smell in the room, something because of the damp getting into the walls, so they try to put it away by burning sent oils in the bathroom, but it doesn t work. It still smells. The staff was ok and generally didn t leave a question unanswered, but I have been to three other cities in Thailand and I also have to admit the staff was much kinder there. I guess all Phuket is less thai and the people do not greet you in the Thai style so much like in Chian Mai, Sukhothai, or the hotel in Bangkok. I missed that. Also, the Internet was not working when i needed it and they couldn t do much about it until the next day. Again, the restaurant is excellent, and having the beach just outside the window is an excellent memory, but the rooms are not good. If wouldn t recommend it for families with children or romantic couples. The thing is that this hotel was actually more expensive than any of the other three absolutely top hotels we got and yet it was less quality. I would suggest that for a 1500 Baht more you should go to the Mom Tri s Resort, which is 5 minutes away by foot - really magical place. I don t know if their beach is good, but we had dinner there twice it was fantastic and the facilities as a whole seem to be of much higher quality there.
Reservation service:
Excellent! Like a breeze, easy, fast and efficient. Timely reminders and notifications.

Hotel was great - my second stay there - breakfast was a little disappointing, but the food at the restaurant for lunch and dinner was great. If you have the chance, make sure to use the free car service to the sister Villa Royale property up the hill - the restaurant there is outstanding also.

Sawadee.com was very helpful - no complaints
