Centara Grand West Sands Resort & Villas
From The Pucket Hotel Blog, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
The West Sands Resort has now been taken over by the Centara group who have several hotels in Phuket. West Sands is at Mai Khao Beach, just north of the airport, a very quiet area, with the hotel entrance accessed down a winding country road. A million miles from the crowds, but if you want to get out and about from there, hire a car. One of the big pluses, especially if you have kids (or enjoy behaving like kids) is the Splash Jungle Waterpark which is on the hotel grounds. Great fun!•...

Phuket Hotel Booking - Try Agoda.com
From The Pucket Hotel Blog, 8 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
Jamie's Phuket Blog started in 2006, I have looked at many online hotel booking sites - the original idea was to have several different booking options for the hotels reviewed on my blogs, giving people the opportunity to check rates at a bunch of different sites. Regular travelers will probably have their preferred booking site, and I don't wish to try and change anyones mind about which is best, but I have to say that over the last few years the Agoda.com site has got neater, the hotel...

Cliff and River Jungle Resort - Khao Sok National Park
From The Pucket Hotel Blog, 10 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
If we take a holiday.. we like to go somewhere that is different to Phuket.. So, no beaches, no crowds, no shopping centers... We have been several times to Khao Sok National Park, which is all mountains, cliffs, rivers, lakes and wildlife. We're maybe not into hiking and kayaking, but we have found our favourite place to relax - the Cliff and River Jungle Resort, just outside the park entrance, with a thousand foot cliff hanging over the resort and the best pool view ever! And only about 3...

Aleenta Resort
From The Pucket Hotel Blog, 10 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
Phuket too crowded for you' Looking for a real hideaway' Well, firstly you probably haven't really explored Phuket - there are loads of quiet places away from the main tourist beaches (have a look at my blog Jamie's Phuket!) But fair enough, if you head over the bridge and off Phuket, things do take on a more relaxed feel. You're in Phang Nga province now, much more rural and with a huge amount of beachfront, only a small part of which has been developed. Aleenta is just north of Phuket,...

The Hilton Phuket (Karon Beach)
From The Pucket Hotel Blog, 1 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
The Hilton Phuket Arcadia Resort and Spa is the biggest resort on Karon Beach, with something like 70 acres of gardens, 4 restaurants, 3 pools, tennis courts - hey, it's the Hilton. Maybe a bit too big for some people, but walk out the front entrance and there's the beach (just over the small beach road in Karon). Sunset cocktail from the pool bar facing the beach is a must!• Hilton Phuket - Online Booking by Agoda• Hilton Phuket - Guest Reviews

Karon Beach Hotels
From The Pucket Hotel Blog, 4 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
A few Karon Beach hotels that I can recommend.For an overview of Karon Beach, see Jamie's Phuket : Karon Beach.Karon has everything from backpacker dorms to 5 star resorts. Just 8km from Patong, it has a far more relaxed and peaceful feeling. The beach is long and open and there are no resorts built right on the beach except a couple right at the south end. Karon beach is ideal for quiet and ideal if you want to be close to the "madness" of Patong but not in it!Karon Beach recommended...

Kata beach is a gently curving little beach, about a mile from end to end, with plenty of shade, a quiet beach road (the traffic mostly stays on a back road), and a picturesque island (Koh Pu) just offshore. Kata is developed, sure, but less than Patong, and it still retains a quiet feel.You can find cheap guesthouses here, small hotels and big resorts.Kata Beach recommended hotels and resorts• Mom Tri's Boathouse• Kata Beach Resort & Spa• Sawasdee Village• Mom Tri's Villa...

Royal Palm Beachfront, Patong Beach
From The Pucket Hotel Blog, 1 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
The Royal Palm Beach Front opened way back in 1995 - used to be called Royal Palm Resortel - it's not huge, with only 67 Rooms. Located in the heart of Patong only a few step from the beach and about 5 minutes walk to Bangla Road. It's just off the beach road but the rooms are away from the noisier areas of Patong. Ideal place to stay if you like a busy beach with lots of restaurants and nightlife.• Royal Palm - Online Booking by Agoda• Royal Palm - Last Minute Bookings at...

Baan Laimai Beach Resort, Patong Beach
From The Pucket Hotel Blog, 1 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
Baan Lamai is on the beach road in Patong, or at least the main entrance is there. It's a big hotel, a few minutes walk from the heart of Patong, if you want action, nightlife, lots of restaurants (and all that goes with it!), Baan Laimai is a little oasis of quiet in the middle of Patong. The resort has a beachfront (Ok, just over the road from the beach) restaurant where I had a superb steak once. I used to work near hear and would walk by often, and took a sneaky shortcut through the hotel...

Chinotel (Phuket Town)
From The Pucket Hotel Blog, 1 year ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
Just last weekend we drove into Phuket Town to pick up a visiting friend for dinner. He said he was staying at Chinotel, which I had not heard of before. That's because it's new. Chinotel is right next to the new market in Phuket Town on Ranong Road in the center of the old town. New room aircon, cable TV, 690 Baht he paid. Sounds good, I thought. You can get slightly better rates on Latestays - see link below, though there are different rooms (standard, junior deluxe and deluxe). If you want...
