"With its thick jungle-like setting and array of elephant statues, gilded artwork, and steeply pitched rooflines, the intimate 40-room Sawasdee offers plenty of authentic Thai style." Full review
Frommer's "A 10-minute walk from Kata Beach (or short ride on the complimentary shuttle), you’ll pass a small portico of stone with some Khmer statuary; walk in and you’ll discover a little Eden" Full review

DK Eyewitness "This lovely property was Phuket’s first luxury hotel and is now a part of the Puravarna group. No longer the most luxurious hotel, this nevertheless remains a fine place to stay."
Star Service "The three extravagant Royal suites are spectacular offerings with the best views in the house. There are a few connecting rooms." Full review
Rough Guide "The beach’s northern headland is dominated by this long-standing luxurious hotel, whose rooms are raked up the hill amid terraced gardens of bougainvillaea."
Lonely Planet "Still a destination for many a transcontinental yachty, Royal Phuket Yacht Club has an air of old-world elegance, especially in its fabulous lobby-bar spinning with ceiling fans."
Fodor's "Beautifully appointed rooms in a modern Thai style all have balconies overlooking the sea." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"This beach side beauty originally opened in the 1980s and boasts a guest list that reads like a Who’s Who of the time – Roger Moore, Peter Ustinov, Prince Albert of Monaco and French president Jacques Chirac." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Located on one of Phuket's best beaches, The Nai Harn Phuket is everyone you could possibly want from a 5-star Thai resort." Full review
Independent "The rooms at the Nai Harn are a blast of colour – lime greens rugs, deep purple threads and garlands of pink bougainvillea all pop against a background of blue-green sky and sea – but it’s the comet-like white of Nai Harn beach you’ll most fondly remember"
Frommer's "Most rooms have large balconies with four-posted sun beds. Villas have a button that, when pushed, immediately alerts your private butler to bring a bottle of champagne. " Full review
