Top Big Buddha Hotel Reviews

Sawasdee Village

10/10 Excellent

"We had an excellent day for five days. We will definitely come back again and recommend it to our friends and family. A big thank you to all the staff of Sawasdee Village & Resort 🙏"

Katathani Phuket Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Kids friendly very fun a lot of water play and massive indoor playground"

The Palmery Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Second time at The Palmery in 2 years with a swim up suite. It's a perfect little oasis away from the hustle and bustle of Kata. Its a 5-10 minute walk from the beach and the main strip but has plenty little restaurants and bars close by (shout out to the Red Chair and its staff - great food there). The hotel is quiet and peaceful allowing you to relax within a short distance of the main Kata shopping and bar district. There's a free shuttle which will take you to and from Kata and Karon (9am, 11am, 1pm, 3pm and 5pm). Breakfast is plentiful. The swim up rooms are great and the suites give you a bigger outside area to relax and allow you to move in and out of the shade."

Chanalai Garden Resort, Kata Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The property and staff were excellent. It was beyond my expectations and will highly recommend this location!"

The Yama Hotel Phuket

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel although I think they need more cotton swabs and the toothbrushes are very hard but besides that very very nice."

Aurico Kata Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"Very cool"

Novotel Phuket Kata Avista Resort And Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent property very helpful staff highly recommended"

Chanalai Romantica Resort Kata Beach - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Went near the end of low season for a week and had a very good experience. Room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, albeit dated. Staff were very friendly, food was very good (breakfast buffet a great value). Pool was great for lounging around and atmosphere was quiet (no kids or partiers). The gym was disappointing - cardio machines broken or not working well, just a few dumbbells and a bench, no towels or way to wipe the bench or mat. I was glad to not have a pool side room as people could swim almost right up to your sliding door and it wouldn’t feel private at all. Personal preference though. The location is close to the beach but still a bit of a walk (~8 minutes) to get around the massive Club Med across the street."

Niranapa Boutique Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful stay! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The facilities were excellent, and everything was always clean and well maintained. A great place to relax and enjoy a comfortable stay. Highly recommended!"
