The Umbrella House

My boyfriend and I came to Phuket over New Year's and absolutely loved our stay at Umbrella House. We were especially impressed by the hospitality of our host Bon. Bon was so helpful - on our first day, we took a Grab car from the airport to Umbrella House and I accidentally chose the option to pay with cash instead of credit card - we hadn't exchanged any cash for Thai Baht yet, and our driver didn't speak any English - thankfully Bon stepped in, was able to translate for us, and lent us about 1,000 baht to cover our bill on the spot. Bon was also able to recommend great local restaurants and food, and also gave us a recommendation for a motorbike rental store we really liked. The property is also really beautiful - the pool is gorgeous and the rooms are spacious and very clean and modern. The bed was plush and we enjoyed our little balcony too. Plus, it's a convenient walk to the beach as well as attractions such as the local market. Would strongly recommend!

I stayed here for five lovely nights. The room was really spacious with a full size fridge and a proper kitchen sink, under a window, even some dishes provided; it had a little balcony from which I could watch the sunrise, and the hummingbirds visiting the bougainvillea hanging over the pool. The lobby is so warm and welcoming, as is Mr Bo. He was waiting for me when I arrived, having set up a car and driver to meet me at the airport, showed me the room, made sure everything was fine. He helped me so much, making calls when I was waiting for a ride and they had not come, recommending the Green Elephant Sanctuary which was wonderful, and just being so kind. The bathroom has great modern fixtures and nice amenities, and the entire room was immaculately cleaned daily, even to fresh pillow cases and always fresh towels. I found the hotel peaceful, the air conditioning worked well and it was only a short walk to the beach path where there are a whole lot of restaurants, bars and coffee places. It was the perfect place and really good value for money.
