Kata Palm Resort Spa

Last stayed here 9 years ago, as was attending a family wedding at another hotel. This time we were a large group of 20+ for another family wedding. We upgraded to a pool access room, tui wouldn't let us book this due to a child on our room booking. We'll worth it, lovely room, perfect for the children to nap in the shade and you can still be in the water keeing cool. Some family were in the new blue rooms, but we prefer the main hotel. It was exactly as we remember from last time. Breakfast is basic on the English breakfast front but plentiful, the males all loved the thai currys etc. Lots of restaurants close by, beach not to far and tuk tuk at night, the kids loved blasting your own music and lights flashing. Pauline ( customer service manager)was amazing, arranged photos of us all as we left kata palm to travel to wedding venue. Even arranged for the bride and grooms rooms to be decorated on there return. Thankyou so much for this. Phuket is much more commercialised now, lots of Russians who are very abrupt. We would return to this hotel if we come to phuket again.

The hotel is beautiful, and the pool is really big and it’s lovely to swim in. The pool and pool area is kept clean and well looked after. The staff are all very friendly, and are attentive and greet you at every opportunity. The cleaners were especially friendly and it was always nice walking past them and them giving you a big smile. I cannot review the restaurant as we didn’t eat in there but it looked nice, and for Songkran it had a big event and buffet. The breakfast was okay, nice omelette. Not many options for pastry’s, only bread ect. The hotel isn’t as close to the beach as we thought. It is a bit of a walk, and when it’s hot the walk does feel a little longer. A few occasions we got a tuk tuk to the end of the beach. It’s easy to get tuk tuk or taxis from the hotel. The hotel is surrounded by restaurants, markets and a couple of bars. My only advice would be when booking, if your in the building where the roof pool and gym is, it can sometimes feel like your not part of Kata Palm resort, it is a building that is quite a walk to the very back of the resort, and I’ll be honest the walk isn’t pretty. Inside the building to get to your room it’s very dark blue, no windows and long corridors with one elevator, and sometimes you are waiting for it to go to each floor. It’s not easy to just pop back to the hotel to drop something off or grab something. I do believe though in the other buildings it would be a lot better. I think we prefer smaller resorts though so that’s just our preference. Thank you Kata Palm Resort

We had booked this hotel on Agoda but on check in the hotel refused to honour our reservation and told us we had to pay directly to the hotel and at a higher rate ! Customer service was none existent

We have just returned from Kata Palm Resort. The first thing I would like to say is the staff look very happy, from the front desk to the gardeners. The swimming pools are surrounded by trees, giving a very chilled vibe and perfect mix of shade and sun, enough sun shades around too. The location is great, lots just outside the hotel, bars, shops, restaurants. The beautiful beach a few minutes walk away. Our room was in the Royal Blue Wing, the view was not great but we were not in our room much as the local area was great. Despite lots around us, we were not bothered by noise. While there was not an huge choice at breakfast, we never went hungry. We took part in a fruit carving lesson, while we were not very good, it was great fun. My husband and I had our marriage blessed in Wat Chalong Temple, the hotel staff helped to plan this for us, everything was perfect. Many thanks to you all at the hotel for a great stay.

An excellent hotel in an excellent location. Our room was very comfortable, clean and quiet. The staff were very friendly. At first we were a bit worried that all the eating areas were outside as it was so hot, but actually we liked this as it was always a calm and pleasant eating experience. The evening meal was a mixture of buffet nights and choosing from the menu. The pool was excellent, nice and shaded with the trees. The location was on the main street with so much going on, but the hotel was quiet. There was not entertainment or loud music around the pool, which is what we prefer.
