Superb WiFi, good and convenient location and free towels and matts for the beach. However, hotel is beginning to feel a little ‘tired’ but what do you expect at that price

I had a room with balcony , the atmosphere was great, my bed really comfortable, the room was a good size. The manager was always available, she made me feel at ease and welcome. I am going back there next week , I loved it! It's so close to the beach , shopping area , restaurants, food market, all that you need from a holiday home.

Worst experience ever
It was a total nightmare and I had to leave. This hotel was a worst experience ever.Mould was everywhere. This is not a 3 star hotel .. Safety and health issues are the main concern here.

Terrible location at any price
This is a horrible horrible hotel or whatever you can call it. the pictures are deceiving and its in worst shape. trash all over the place. The lady who suppose to be the receptionist is doing business from her own apartment with no shoes, no pants and look very sick. The rooms smell heavy duty mildew and beat-up. We booked two rooms and immediately check out. The trash around the bungalow made an excellent residence for mosquitos. I feel like I should be refunded for my two bedroom booking. Sad Sad Sad!!!!!

Dear guest, Thank you for visiting us. We are not happy for your experience. Obviously you were in a wrong place for your expectations at a extremely low rate. On the opposite side there is a place which will probably meet your criteria, for 10x higher rate. We do not have uniformed staff, especionaly not in the low(price) season. A half of our rooms are DeLuxe rooms in a 4 years old hotel C, another 25% are in the 10 years old hotel A. You chosen a bungalow old a25 years in a very natural environment. It is a favourite for many of our guest but not for you, that's ok. You didn't claim any of functions described on the web side. To claim mosquitos in a tropical land, in the fully natural environment during the rain season... You never talk to the staff about an alternative, there are plenty of other possibilities, for ex a deluxe hotel room with a large balcony and real sea view. No, you just left our place for reasons known only buy you. Direct conversation is a good way to find good solutions and improve your stay, much more efficient for all than post review. Thank you for your time and we wish you a pleasant further travelling.

Needs work
The location is good but the room was not very nice. At first glance it was looked nice but at a closer look the shower had quit a bit of mildew, the shower curtain was very old and had mildew stains, the curtains on the entrance sliding door had stains, my husband saw a bug in the bathroom during the night and the bedsheets had a tear. I wish we paid a bit more stayed someplace cleaner. We spent 3 nights. And if you can’t climb stairs this is not a place for you.

Dear Anonymous, Thank you for staying with us. During the check in and the whole stay never pointed out any problem or remark and now sending an anonyme message...in general we don't think is anything useful for anyone. 1. Our rooms are well known as very clean 2. Environment is real tropical. We are not aloud to kill all insect and similar typical for that environment. As soon you open door to pass in the room you open the entrance for some guest from the garden. We have plenty of rooms on the first floor. In general, it is just to tell to the reception about anything disturbing your stay and that will be eliminated! We wish you a nice travel.

Thank you! We appreciate and welcome all reviews and hope they could be used in our program for improvements in order to increase customer satisfaction. Unfortunately this type of anonyme reviews doesn't give us (neither anyone other) something valuable. Of course there is some reason for this judge but giving a little more information could be used in a more constructive way. One additional and efficient way would be to inform the hotel about any experience DURING the stay and by that improve directly your time with us.

Basic but great value for the price
A little dated and no-frills but for the price it was excellent. Comfortable beds. Fridge in the room, great for storing drinks and ice from the nearby family Mart! Walking distance to everything you wanna get to in Kata. The first bungalow we stayed in (B2) had a really terrible smell in the bathroom, we brought it to the attention of the staff and they tried to put some freshener in the toilet, but after that got flushed away, the smell was back. Staff was really great at helping us pick a new bungalow and we were able to spend the next two nights in a different one that was totally fine. Not sure if that will be an option come high season when all the rooms get filled so hopefully they are able to make sure all their sewage system is better maintained. As mentioned, the rooms are pretty sparse and dated, although there are actual blackout drapes and the beds are comfy enough. For the price point and easy access to Kata beach and surrounding restaurants, massage places, etc... Well worth it.

Highly recommend Kata Beachwalk
We were very pleased with our stay at Kata Beachwalk. We stayed in one of the bungalows and the ocean view was fantastic. The room was clean and the service was amazing. It was our first time in Kata and we definitely want to return and stay here again. The restaurant below the bungalows was also one of the best we found. The only issue we had was there was a few times the water in the shower wasn’t working. But they were quick to fix it and it never lasted more than 20-30 minutes until it was working again. They provide beach towels for you and provide clean bath towels and waters everyday. We can’t say enough great things about this place. The location was also the best we can imagine. Literally steps away from the beach and kind of central to everything else.

Dear guest, Thank you so much for staying with us, we were very happy by having you in our house. We apologise for problems you experienced with the water. Vacation should be without any kind of disturbing. Thank you for your understanding and help, we will of course check the whole system and eliminate possible causes for any trouble.

Great staff and Great value for money!
I stayed in one of the bungalows, which i can recommend. Upon my arrival everything was ready, light was on, the aircon was on - in all a pleasant welcome.Very nice and pleasant staff, who made every effort to make my stay pleasant and comfortable. My bungalow was always clean and two bottles of water was automatically delivered every day. I find its location conveniently close to the beach. I personally prefer Kata Noi beach, but that's just me. Wifi connection was good no problem there. I will definitely come back as long as i can have my old bungalow :-)

Good in every way
Very clean, comfortable hotel with spacious rooms, good soundproofing, good Wi-Fi. I enjoyed the superior room with a nice balcony that looks straight on to a nicely landscaped hill. The great thing about this hotel is that it enjoys a secluded passageway right to the sand of the beach, 50 m away, but you are paying much, much less then the hotels directly on the beach. The owner is a great guy who will do anything to make your stay more enjoyable. Immediately next to the hotel is a reasonably priced, open air restaurant that seems to be popular in the area. I hardly recommend this hotel and would come back anytime.

Dear guest,. We were very happy to be your host during the short but very interesting period ful of communication and dialogs.

Bungalow close to beach lovely view
We didnt actually stay in the hotel, as refurbishment work had not been completed, due to heavy rain, the bungalow was very neat and clean, with excellent views over the bay, It was a bit of a shock, at the incline to reach the bungalow, but the view made it worthwhile, I would not reccommend this for the elderley or infirm, work being performed on adjacent hotel and bungalow, Valdi the owner is a very friendly humorous gentleman, the staff are excellent, friendly and helpful, the bungalow was cleaned every day with fresh bedding and towels, eateries around the area are excellent

Kata Beachwalk highly recommended!
My husband and I stayed for 11 nights at Kata Beachwalk Hotel in January. Considering the very reasonable (cheap) price of the stay the hotel was excellent! It was very clean with room serviced every day. There is a good restaurant with nightly live music downstairs. It is located virtually across the road from the entrance to Kata Beach. We did the Kata Hot Yoga every morning and this is located about 50 metres up the road too. The staff were excellent and very friendly. We would definitely stay again. Highly recommended.

Enda som var bra i bungalowen var kvalite på sängen. Stora färgsjok hängde från taket, gardinerna var fina men skulle behövas en hel gardinstång och sätta upp dom i, över huvudtaget skulle en rejäl upprustning behövas. Tråkigt när vi kostade på det dyrare alternativet med havsutsikt som dock ej fanns. Bilderna stämmer tyvärr ej med verkligheten

Vi bodde i bungalow som alla ligger på en höjd med måååånga trappsteg dit. Så har man lite svårt att gå i trappor så är det kanske inget att rekommendera. De ligger dock väldigt fint med bra utsikt. Mediokra men ändå mysiga även om de inte är i bästa skick. Vanliga hårda sängar, enkel toalett och dusch. Nära till stranden.
