    The amount of photoshoots from others guests was extremely cringe, have never seen so many people on their phones in a pool. It would be great if the property opened the rooftop pool slightly earlier!

    I was apprehensive staying here because of the reviews but so glad we did, it is an incredible property and we had a lovely experience. Check in was smooth and we were lucky to receive a slightly early check in as our room was available. The property is extremely picturesque and staff were great. Breakfast was good. Although cape panwa is an isolated area of Phuket we personally loved being away from the touristy areas - Ao Yon Beach is stunning and much better than any of the main beaches. It was a very cheap taxi ride to reach the main areas if needed.

    The pool was amazing exactly like the photos. The location was bit far from Phuket city but you can easily book taxi. The rooms are not fully insulated you can hear people talking. The bed was not that comfortable. However good value for money.

    There is not much around at all, the street it’s located on there’s only 1 cafe and 1 restaurant meaning we had to get taxis around.

    Stunning hotel, good pool areas with the main pool and a rooftop pool with a bar. Facing the beach and very relaxing.

    The breakfast was nothing to write home about, I expected better from a hotel like this. In the rooms they only had one towel for each person, meaning they didn't have hand towels or face towels, which isn't convenient.

    The hotel is incredible, truly beautiful. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The pool on the rooftop and the surrounding area are small, I thought they would be bigger, but it's comfortable to be in, always with ambient music.

    I didn't like the fact that the beach is not part of the hotel when you advertise beach front. the beach is across the road from hotel and it is dirty with trash.

    Very good location for us. It is near Punwa port. the room was amazing. services were good as well. the pool is good in the middle of hotel.

    Rooms don’t have any closet Breakfast is very limited and closes as 10:0 sharp Hotel doesn’t have any attractions apart from the pool itself Beach is across the street, there are no sunbeds, it’s a public beach so you have to take everything with yourself It’s far away from the night markets , in order to get anywhere you need to take a bike or a taxi, as it’s not a flat area and a long road up and down

    Pool was great :) Sea is very nice in that area

    Clean rooms, but the reception was filled with luggage from guests who arrived before check in time.

    Our flight landed before the check-in time. The reception area was filled with luggage from guests who had also arrived early (before the 3 PM check-in). There was no designated luggage storage room near reception, so the area became overcrowded with suitcases. The hotel seemed to attract a lot of 'influencers'—everywhere we looked, there were iPhones filming and constant photo-taking throughout the day. This took away from the sense of relaxation, as many guests were preoccupied with their phones.

    The rooms were clean, comfortable and well sized. Having a morning coffee on the balcony that overlooked the swimming pool was a lovely way to start the day.

    The location of the hotel is a little bit further from any facilities, you have to walk about 6 min up the hill to the nearest restaurant and another 6 min to a smaller town, where you can find shops, restaurants and some stalls, but the beach in front of the hotel is excellent.

    Staff was very friendly, breakfast was very tasty, room was excellent, the swimming pool was very nice and interesting, but in the pictures it looked bigger, the beach in front of the hotel was perfect. We liked our stay there.

    First day I came to check in, i was early. Incheck time is pretty late 15 o’clock, but no problem. I could leave our luggage safely is the lobby. Next day we noticed our hoodies that where on our luggage was not brought to the room and they didn’t even looked properly with for us to find it. We just got an simple answer ‘sorry, don’t have it’. How can two hoodies magically dissappear?

    Very beautifull hotel. Staff could be, atleast try or make it look like they want to be more helpfull.

    The breakfast was not that good and not worth 300 baht , I wouldn't call this hotel a resort, it's mostly has an instagramble view which is cool , but don't expect a resort

    The place is clean and comfortable, amazing rooms and the view is awesome from the balcony, the beach in front of the hotel is very quiet

    The main issue we encountered was the humidity, due to the bathroom being integrated directly within the room. The hotel is quite popular on social media, which results in the pool area being constantly crowded with people taking photos—this was a downside for us

    The hotel is nice and well-kept.

    The reception staff weren’t amazingly welcoming but you can see they are very in demand and busy so definitely have a lot to deal with. Many comments have been unhappy with the location, which is something that you should research beforehand. It’s a good location for a quiet few days as there isn’t much going on in the surroundings. They don’t serve any drinks at the pool until 11am, which is a bit strange but you do have drinks in your room. The pool area states it doesn’t open until 10 but we came back to find the area completely full, so perhaps this needs to be a rule with less tolerance or a rule that is completely removed.

    A great place to stay for a quiet few days in Phuket. Both pools look as good as they do online, very well maintained and clean. The kayaks are a fun bonus to go with the river type pool. The hotel is very clean, food and drink is surprisingly an okay price for what you’d expect in a hotel of this level. There are a couple of surrounding restaurants if you don’t want to eat in the hotel restaurant only, the seaside restaurant as you come out to the right sells great food at a really good price compared to everywhere else nearby. The rooms are modern and luxurious with complimentary items such as coke and sprite daily. The bed was the most comfortable bed I’ve stayed in in my month in Thailand. Find most beds in Thailand are quite hard, this bed was soft and you sunk into it. The staff specifically serving food and drink were friendly and attentive. I’d love to stay here again and I’m very surprised by other people’s reviews…

    You can't find anything near the hotel, and the staff service is very average. I can say that I found better service in other areas where I paid less.

    The best thing about this place is the pool and the restaurant, nothing more!

    I didn’t like that i was given the room across from the restaurant. It was a pool access room but everyone in the restaurant could see into my room unless i had the blinds closed. Inconsiderate party goers on the roof bar at night time. Other peoples kids screaming and being loud at night time.

    Wifi was good. Even there was no microwave in the rooms i was allowed to use the kitchen one.
