5 Stars Hotels in Ban Thalane

"Nice little touches throughout stay. Quieter location. Beachfront walks every day to breakfast. We had a pool villa and pool was used every day. Complimentary iced teas after swimming, staff helpful & welcoming. Breakfast really good. Small hotel with plenty of space so loungers and hammocks, kayaks always available. Italian restuarant good. Not the cheapest but this place justifies its price well overall. We had an enjoyable stay. An example of a trip was private long tail boat for 5 hours to 4 islands with water, fruit and coconus (not lunch) for 3 people for about £125 which we thoroughly enjoyed. Sort of missed being closer to things, but taxi to Ao Nang shopping and choice of eateries 15 mins and about 500 Baht. Never really bothered to find the other local restuarants along the beach. When the walk to breakfast is through lovely tropical garden, it's pleasant. A mango fell off a tree on the last day right in front of us, we'll see if we can ripen it at home if we get it past customs. "

"Fyi at Phuket airport, they pick up inside gate 2, not outside gate 2. Was even better than I expected. Amazing food, amazing service, and amazing prices. QR code ordering is so convenient - you can eat or drink anything you want the whole day. "

"Cannot fault anything"

"The hospitality of the staff was incomparable. Whenever we made a request, they accommodated quickly. The views were amazing from the room and the activities were incredible"

"Very Quiet, Courteous service "

"Great location and well appointed rooms. Service is classic Thai who are exceptional helpful and engaging. Resport is not that old so still very much in good shape (eg decking round the pool, tiles loose in pool area etc) minor but will need to be addressed. As we went in the off season there was low patronage - gret for us - but main restaurant (Pakarang) closed for lunch and dinner as a result. Reduces the viable options (not including pool bar/restaurant which closes approx 6) for dinner to two restaurants - not an issue generally but needs to be clearer on their website when booking. Watersports options reduced to SUP and Kayak. Agree with the no motorized stuff - but the odd hobie cat or small sailing dinghy would be good. Overall - a fantastic place Word of warning - if you have an early departure form Phuket - the private boat to get you there with an early morning surcharge is a BIG dent on the budget "
