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. Ideal for families as well as couples and groups of friends, spend the day lazing by the poolside – there are six to choose from – whilst the kids splash about in their own pool (they’ve got four!) 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. As we’ve said, this hotel is great for the youngsters too – whilst parents are busy snoozing under the shade of an umbrella, kids can head to their own private club, getting stuck into activities such as balloon painting, necklace making, clay sculpting and much much more. 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!

Beautiful beach, pool, great restaurants, nice room, friendly staff. It was the relaxing vacation we needed. The nearby Parampara restaurant at the Shore was wonderful, and available to hotel guests. We did think that the melon shops, although charming, could stock a greater variety.

All the staff were very helpful and happy. Breakfast buffet was wonderful with lots of selection. Dinner options were comprehensive, the bars very chilled. The facilities were excellent. Close to shops and laundry and 7Eleven. Not much more to add.
