Lonely Planet "Taking over a huge portion of lush, relatively quiet Hat Kata Noi, this glitzy spa resort offers all the usual trimmings in stylish surrounds... Excellent low-season deals are often available." Full review
Rough Guide "The various wings and offshoots of the enormous and luxurious Katathani now occupy almost the entire shoreline of small, secluded Kata Noi."
Fodor's "This long, sprawling lodge fronts most of the Kata Noi beach. This seems to intimidate day-trippers, whose general absence keeps nearly 1 km of smooth sand delightfully visible." Full review
OysterLuxury
"On a prime seaside location along a quiet stretch of Kata Noi Beach, this 479-room luxury resort looms large, with six pools, bars, and restaurants across the grounds." Full review
Frommer's "The Katathani is on a quiet cul-de-sac and dominates a large slice of the lovely Kata Noi Beach, a haven of luxury." Full review
