Top Big Buddha Hotel Reviews

Aurico Kata Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"Very cool"

Katathani Phuket Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Family rooms were new and spacious. Resort as a whole offers so much to explore and eat and drink and fun. Best resort I have stayed in. Staff very friendly and helpful. Overall everything was amazing Will be back!"

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."

Paradox Resort Phuket

8/10 Good

"A bit dated accomodation, no power points beside the beds and pretty dark generally. A bit of wear and tear throughout the bathroom. Shower took a very long time to run hot (5 minutes). Breakfast great and staff lovely. Booking airport transfer was a bit messy by email, abit of repeating myself and payment links that expire after an hour. Makes it difficult to arrange whilst travelling."

Chanalai Flora Resort, Kata Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Warmly welcomed by staff, greeted with a cold flannel to wipe the sweat away and a fan put right in front of us. Kids enjoyed the pool and pool activities. Handy to beach , shops and laundry across the road. Very helpful friendly staff. So far this has been or best of 3 different hotels around phuket"

The Palmery Resort

8/10 Good

"The staff were lovely, they were all super nice and helpful. The room we stayed in was a suite. It was a little old and dated but very clean. The bed was very firm. I think if we stayed again we would get a deluxe room because they are much newer and look a lot nicer. The pool was nice but there were a bunch of tiles missing in one spot on the floor. The food at breakfast was very good and the chef making eggs was awesome he made the best eggs. The bell boy was very helpful taking bags to and from our room. Over all we really enjoyed our stay here and the couple little things would not stop us from returning. We would recommend this place to anyone. The price and the service and cleanliness was very good. Thank you. Kab khan krab"

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!"

The View Phuket by RESAVA

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely stunning property with magnificent views. If you're looking for luxury and somewhere private to feel like home, look no further. Situated at top of the mountains nestled within private spaces overlooking the beautiful sea and crab island, this place is remarkable and just far and close enough from all the tourist and activities. Loved coming home every evening to the quiet after being out and about. Be cautious for those who are not driving or relying on taxi as the slope to get to the property is really steep and not everyone will be able to walk or drive it. Definitely recommend and likely to return."
