5-Star Hotels in Phuket

This hotel was the highlight of my Phuket trip. Seriously, no complaints except for its distance from the city center. The price was fantastic too! The views were absolutely breathtaking, and the service was incredibly warm – everyone greeted you with a smile. The room smelled lovely and wasn't humid at all. I don't understand why everyone raves about Katathani but no one mentions The Nai Harn. They replenished our water generously every day. The moment you open the door, it's just stunning. It totally made up for the disappointment of the first three days at The Boathouse (I assume '美的概念' refers to The Boathouse or a similar property name based on common Phuket hotel names). My mood instantly lifted. Breakfast was also great. Honestly, I've been feeling a bit down since coming back... experiencing withdrawal symptoms. T_T

I booked a one-bedroom villa, and after visiting and comparing several units, I truly believe Villa #68 is the absolute best among the one-bedroom options! The layout and size are optimal! The villa boasts a generous 550 sqm, offering huge space and a comfortable layout. It comes with a private pool that directly connects to the beach, making both privacy and the views impeccable. The amenities are also comprehensive: a sauna, indoor and outdoor dual showers, and an outdoor bathtub, instantly delivering a complete resort feel and comfort. The hotel itself has a very natural, ecological island vibe. We saw lizards several times on the villa rooftop and by the pool. At first, it was a bit scary, but they are actually very docile and completely non-aggressive – a rather unique wilderness experience. Breakfast was just okay, nothing special. The service was excellent throughout; all staff members were enthusiastic, friendly, meticulous, and attentive. A special shout-out to Liam, who provided dedicated service from start to finish, always responsive, patiently helping us arrange all our needs with professionalism and warmth! However, there are a few objective points that deduct from the overall score: Firstly, the hotel's landscaping and gardening are rather ordinary compared to other resorts in the same category. Most of the public areas are sandy, with sparse and poorly maintained plants, making them generally not photo-worthy. Secondly, the in-room facilities are a bit dated, especially the bathroom. The quality of the fixtures and sanitary ware like the toilet and showerhead feels quite common, which doesn't quite match the Luxury Collection brand positioning. Getting to the island involves a bit of a journey, from the airport to the pier and then a speedboat transfer, but it feels worth it upon arrival. If you're looking for an extra-large private villa, private pool, direct beach access, and excellent service, this place is still highly recommended. However, if you are sensitive to the public area landscaping and the newness of indoor hardware, you might want to do a bit more research.

The room facilities are very new, and the hotel environment is beautiful. It's quite close to the airport, which was convenient as I had an early flight the next day. The hotel has its own clean, uncrowded beach, making it a great choice if you're traveling with kids and just want to relax at the hotel and play on the sand. For meals or grocery shopping, the hotel provides a tuk-tuk service every 50 minutes during the day and every 30 minutes in the evening. By the way, the pizza place nearby is pretty good, and there's also an elephant feeding experience with two elephants, which was quite fun.

Enjoyed our 3 nights at Noku Phuket! The front desk and bell team were absolutely lovely during our time here, and we had a complimentary upgrade to the room with the whirlpool in our balcony! Loved that the room was super spacious, and there were dual sinks in the bathroom. Location was pretty far but they provided complimentary shuttles to Phuket town too! Didn’t manage to explore the breakfast, dining and spa offerings during this stay! It would be good if the hotel could look into improving their flooring (there were some gaps & there was even a piece of wood sticking out and was a hazard). The linen was really thin and not fitting of 5 star standard, which was a shame as the hotel was really pretty! But overall still a highly recommended stay!

We liked everything: room, territory, breakfast, staff, SPA and restaurants. We chose this hotel because it was on the Bang Tao Beach (first line) and the location of it was on the western side of the island so we could watch the sunset. Also the hotel is really eco friendly, you may find it even in the kits and toiletries. The girl at the reception was very helpful and thanks to guys helping with bags and luggage. We also enjoyed afternoon tea. Tiny things I didn’t like (1) the sound of the air con, for me it was a little bit loud, (2) expected various fruits for the breakfast not only litchi and dragonfruit.

I had a wonderful stay at Graceland Resort—I can’t be any happier. I arrived pretty late at night, and all I asked for was a nice, quiet room. The front desk lady Jenny at that time of night was incredibly considerate and sweet .She upgraded me to a pool room, and I truly appreciate that. Also, there was a lovely cleaning lady Kanyakorn who cleaned me room every day and was very attentive and pleasant , she let me borrowed the iron exceptionally longer period of time😅Overall, I felt taken care of and very welcomed. The service and hospitality were excellent. The breakfast was okay—I’d rate it about 6.7 out of 10—but the hotel itself is beautiful. It has a couple of pools and it’s right on the beach, with many restaurants around. Hotel got a small gym as well which is good enough for few days workout and oh yes they offer complimentary half an hour morning trainings as well which was nice . I also remember a v kind gesture from them i ordered late night food and they forgot to deliver to bring and on being reminded the food and beverage manager felt terribly sorry and wanted to send free meal next day which wasn’t needed for me so I declined politely but they were so sweet they still ended up sending a fruit platter to room.In all , with such great hospitality, I would definitely come back to the hotel. Customer service was awfully wonderful.

We stayed at Cassia Phuket for fifteen days, and it was a truly perfect trip! First, I booked a one-bedroom loft, and the room had direct access to the garden and pool, which was incredibly convenient for our child to go swimming and play whenever they wanted. Second, the room was spotless and tidy. The bedding in the bedroom was super comfortable – all down feather. The moment we walked in, we were greeted by that familiar, signature Thai scent! The kitchen was fully equipped with everything from cutlery to plates and cookware – absolutely everything! For staying in the Laguna area, Cassia is the best choice for a longer stay! The location is very convenient; the shuttle bus was on-call and always available. It's just a 3-minute walk to a small commercial area with a supermarket, hospital, and various restaurants. Plus, there's a night market every weekend! If you want to get to Bangtao Beach, it's only a 2-minute ride on the Laguna-exclusive shuttle boat! There were plenty of sun loungers, making it very relaxing. The breakfast was also excellent, with a wide variety of options! We ate there for 15 days and never got bored! Finally, I want to give the warmest commendation to the ladies at Cassia's front desk! I regret not asking for the name of the lady who checked us in before we left! She was incredibly friendly and enthusiastic! Every day, as we passed the front desk, she would warmly call out to my child, Ricky! Although my child is a bit shy, he absolutely adored her! There was also a lady who spoke Chinese, and she was very friendly too! The overall atmosphere was superb! I also experienced the free Muay Thai classes twice a week! A huge shout-out to the Muay Thai instructor as well! I will recommend this place to all my friends planning a trip to Phuket! Super review from Ricky's family!

I didn't have high hopes for this hotel due to its low rating on Ctrip and the room photos. However, my stay far exceeded my expectations. The room was much more upscale in person than it appeared in the pictures. While some power outlets, switches, and a few pieces of furniture were a bit dated, the overall quality was still evident. We booked a one-bedroom luxury sea-view villa. Upon arrival, the staff warmly showed us two different layouts within this room type: one with separate living and sleeping areas, and another where they were connected. The bedroom and bathroom configurations also varied. We chose the latter, and the view was absolutely incredible. The staff across all departments were excellent, always greeting us with a smile and providing great assistance. The tuk-tuk service was also very prompt, arriving within 2-3 minutes of calling. Because of the room's amazing view, we ordered room service for both dinners, enjoying our meals while watching the sunset. The food quality was also excellent, far superior to the Banyan Tree where we stayed a few days prior. There's a 7-Eleven within walking distance, and the walk from the hotel to the 7-Eleven offers nice scenery. There were a couple of downsides. Firstly, the breakfast selection was limited (though the taste was decent), and the breakfast restaurant lacked air conditioning. Also, the air conditioning in the game room was often turned off; I hope they can improve this. One more thing to mention: if your budget allows, I highly recommend upgrading directly to the one-bedroom luxury pool sea-view villa. The experience at this hotel differs significantly depending on whether you have a sea view or not.

If your room is located before A East 510, you'll likely have an amazing view. So, it depends on your luck. We happened to stay in 510, and it offered a fantastic sea view. Personal experience: As someone who enjoys fitness, I can confidently say that this hotel's gym is the best I've encountered in any hotel. It's well-equipped, clean, and spacious, which I'm extremely satisfied with. The entire hotel is quite large, so taking a stroll around is also a nice option. Exiting through the hotel's back door, staff members are available to help you hail a taxi and cross the road, which is a thoughtful touch. The hotel breakfast is also very generous. If you've booked breakfast, this one meal will be enough for the day. There are also some small animals like peacocks, chickens, and cats around the hotel, which children will find very entertaining. Overall, I'm very satisfied. It's worth staying here. The only minor drawback is that 7-Eleven stores are about a 10-minute walk away, so on hot days, it can feel a bit far.

Why are there so many negative reviews? This hotel is excellent in terms of both facilities and service! The environment is very natural and pristine, with a massive garden, lush trees, and modern architecture. The pool is huge, with several shallow play areas, perfect for families with children under 6. The main pool is 1.4 meters deep – imagine relaxing in the water while gazing at the sea! There's also a bar right by the pool. The hotel's private beach, although the waves are too strong for swimming, boasts water the same clear, blue-green color as the pool – absolutely beautiful. The hotel breakfast is incredibly rich, offering not only standard Western options but also many local specialties like curries, pandan cake, sticky rice desserts, and Thai milk tea – all delicious! There's also a wide selection for lunch and dinner. The prices are comparable to outside restaurants, and while there's a service charge, it saves you the time and effort of going out, making it ideal for lazy guests like us who just want to relax at the hotel. The hotel also has a spa and massage services, along with a gym. There are different activities scheduled daily. The staff are friendly, polite, and always willing to help. For payments, credit cards, Alipay, and WeChat Pay are all accepted. Guests come from all over the world, truly a mini United Nations, which is very interesting. However, the hotel's location is a bit remote, which might not suit those who prefer a livelier atmosphere.
