Romantic Hotels in Phuket

I arrived late at night and initially planned to stay for two nights as a transition. I only started looking for hotels the day before departure, and after getting tired of searching, I just picked one that offered good value for money. I didn't have high hopes at first, but after checking in, I decided to extend my stay for a few more nights. The place smelled lovely from the moment I walked in, and the room was super clean, just like in the pictures! There wasn't any musty smell, and the decor was particularly cozy. Plus, it was a mountain view room. In China, similar guesthouses during the off-season would easily cost 500+ RMB, so this was incredibly good value! Dining and everything else was very convenient. There's a 7-Eleven just across the road downstairs, and it's only a few minutes' walk to the beach. The guesthouse owner is Chinese and very thoughtful; they even offered complimentary drinks upon check-in. The owner also helped us book massages, and we could ask them anything we didn't understand. It felt very safe; I left my money and electronics around freely for several days without anything going missing, though there's also a safe if you're worried. After staying a few nights on Phi Phi Island, I came back and extended my stay here again. Phi Phi Island is beautiful, but the hotel bedding there tended to be damp, and the water quality wasn't great. Coming back here, the blankets felt so soft, and there wasn't any strange odor at all – probably because I had something to compare it to, haha! This will definitely be my top choice next time I visit.

We absolutely loved our stay here. First, we stayed for 2 months. Daily housekeeping, towel changes, 2 bottles of water, tea, coffee, and toiletries were provided every day. The staff was magnificent, always smiling, and always ready to help in any way they could. Second, we mostly ordered meal sets for 2-3 meals (delivery). If you have an electric stove and cooking utensils, you can significantly reduce your food budget. There were also many restaurants nearby where we ate, and two grocery stores close by. Third, the quietness. We slept like babies. Since my husband works remotely, a good internet connection, quietness, and a comfortable bed were important to us. The mattress and pillows were very comfortable for sleeping. Fourth, the plasma TV (it's huge!). You rarely find such large TVs in rental accommodations. Fifth, the pool. It's 12-13 meters long and 1.2 meters deep. An ideal place to relax. We swam and had fun every morning and evening, always by ourselves. Most of the time, there was practically no one else around. It seemed like most guests were staying for short periods. The sea was a 16-minute walk away. It was always different. Our stay has ended, and we are leaving. We highly recommend this place!

The view from the window is beautiful, overlooking palm trees. It actually faces a busy road, so you might hear loud music and traffic noise. There's a clothes dryer, shampoo, and shower gel. The sea is only a 7-minute walk away. Karon Beach is a 15-minute walk away. Bed linen and cleaning are provided every morning, but the linens and towels were often stained. We're not picky, but it was still unpleasant. There's also a strong, unpleasant smell coming from the shower drain. We're not sure what it's about, but at times the smell was very pungent. Otherwise, everything was fine. Breakfasts were modest but filling, and there was plenty to eat. The staff themselves were wonderful, smiling Thais.

This is a good hotel, suitable for a short stay. The staff are very kind and friendly. There's construction happening next to the hotel, but I didn't notice any noise from it. The breakfasts are a bit sparse, but you won't go hungry. There's a small pool which was a lifesaver when we got sunburned. The sea is a 10-minute walk away, or you can take a 15-minute stroll to the Corona area. There's a bus nearby that takes you to the airport for 100 baht. However, there are a couple of downsides. First, the pillows are incredibly hard! I don't know what they're filled with or why they're so firm, but after sleeping on them, you'll need a massage! My second complaint is the unpleasant smell of the water. It wasn't constant, but it was definitely there at times. This might have just been an issue in our room, 411, but it's worth mentioning. Unfortunately, I didn't take photos of the room, but everything is as described on the website.

The Lakeside Resort is indeed an old-fashioned resort. It is not located in several large districts, but in Kathu County in the middle of Phuket, which is also a county with many people. If you don't remember that you have to walk a dark village road at the end, life is actually very convenient. Advantages: ① Very quiet. Very small mountain, very small lake (not a stinky ditch, the kind where you can fish), there is an American-style bar and restaurant by the lake, which is quite comfortable for long-term stay. ② The swimming pool is comfortable and the water is clean. ③ There are few people. ④ There is a public tabby cat in the hotel, which is quite friendly. It will help to be on duty at the bar at night and interact with tourists during the day. Disadvantages: The hotel I stayed in this time should be the lowest-grade holiday cottage, facing the lake, and the facilities are old. There was a rat droppings on the ground in one of the rooms (later I thought it should be a bat 😂), and I changed to another room at my request. However, all rooms of this type still have two common problems: one is that there are many ants on the window sills and frames, which must be closed tightly; the other is that the water in the toilet is okay, but when the hot water is turned on, the lights in the bedroom will flicker due to unstable voltage 🤦🏻♂️ After analysis, it may be that only the single-story townhouses by the lake have this problem. It's a circuit problem that cannot be solved. Next time if I really want to live here, I can try their larger suites. It feels pretty good. Several foreigners have lived here, and it feels like they are all long-term tenants.
