Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Staff is unhappy and speak very little to no zero English at all, so that makes things difficult. They also take 1000 bht from you as a damage deposit. The swim up bars are boring as hell and they treat smokers like cockroaches. Breakfast is blah blah and not delicious. But over all the place is nice, really good tropical surroundings and many pools to choose from. All in all a pretty good value and not a bad place. Barely anyone eats there and there must be a reason for it.
We stayed in a room with pool access. Best decision we made. After spending the day out in the humid weather it was a blessing to step out of the room and straight into the pool. Breakfast every morning was filling and selection of foods to eat was massive and varied and the staff in the dining room were friendly and seemed to know who we were the first morning there. Domestic staff, who you see everyday, were wonderful and seemed happy to help when needed outside of just cleaning rooms. We will be looking at coming back for another holiday.

as far as accommodations in Kata Beach, it is a great value. it's only a short walk to the beach and it has plenty of parking which parking is hard to find in Kata. 15 minute taxi ride to Patong Beach. very family friendly and not crowded like Patong Beach. definitely better for families.
We loved our stay at Kata palm resort. Three awesome pools. Breakfast had many options. We were able to walk to most shops we needed. The staff were lovely.
We had originally booked into the royal blue wing, however it is quite a walk to the restaurants and the street, so we moved closer in, the staff facilitated the move with grace.
We would stay here again
We recommend paying the extra for the pool access room which was nice.
The pool is massive though on the cooler side compared to other pools in Thailand.
We were able to check in early, which was appreciated.
There are many food options nearby and the buffet breakfast was fine.
Our 5th stay here was as good, or better, than the previous 4…great staff, awesone room ( deluxe pool access), amazing breakfast, really well situated to great restaurants and beach. simply put , our luxury home away from home
I was here for a couple of nights in December, their peak season. I stayed in a room with pool access which was amazing.
The pool is gorgeous, and I can see that it is cleaned everyday and the gardens are tidied. The view is beautiful. The pool area is quite aesthetic and a great place to come and relax when you are tired of the beach which is nearby.
Kata beach is within walkable distance but you can also take the shuttle from the hotel. At night the street is very lively with shops going along the main street.
Inside the room it was a bit dated and could do with a refresh. There was black mould stains on the interior decorations like the cushions. There was a bath inside the bathroom I probably wouldn't bathe in. I don't think that the showers are cleaned very well. Not the worst bathroom but also not the shiny hotel room that you would expect in the west. It does the job and is in liveable condition. I can say the water pressure is also fine.

The family room and pool were great. Breakfast was awful.
The swim up pool was great, but whole kata area is really crowded and you need to get through busy street to get to the beach. As cleanness goes Kids Club was quite dirty and baby chair saw better time so paint was peeling off. Otherwise room and pools were nice and clean. One another issue was door to pool did not close properly and was probably open for long before we came since when we arrived room was already full of mosquitoes
We really Liked the room. Very large with great balcony. comfortable bed. AC worked very well. The dining area for breakfast was lovely and the food served was prepared well with lots of variety. Coffee machines were great with options for cappuccino.
The hotel lobby staff were friendly and helpful. The tour guide desk by front door provided lots of help with ideas and suggestions for tours.
The shower didn’t work well. One shower head was broken. One was partially plugged. However reported it and they came right away to fix it. Unfortunately it still wasn’t working properly afterwards.
Overall it’s a great hotel and would definitely stay again.
