Outrigger hotels in Mai Khao

"My husband and I stayed here for a week after travel disruptions forced us to extend our trip in Phuket. We chose this hotel for its proximity to Patong Beach and nearby attractions. While the location is convenient, this was the least preferred of the four hotels we stayed at during our three-week trip in Thailand. Although marketed as a resort, it lacked many features we expected. There is no spa, and many common areas were frequently closed for private events. Most indoor common areas also lacked air conditioning, which made the heat uncomfortable during the day. The pool areas had very little shade, making it difficult to spend extended time outside. Our swim-up room had chairs instead of loungers, which wasn’t ideal for relaxing. Housekeeping was daily but often not thorough. We frequently had to request washcloths and toilet paper, and noticed issues like debris remaining on floors, hair left on the toilet seat, and an empty conditioner bottle left in the shower. Service was inconsistent, particularly at breakfast and dinner. Breakfast had a large selection but was expensive for Thailand. The airport “shuttle” was simply a taxi arranged at a higher price than Grab. Overall, the location is good, but for longer stays the hotel lacked the comfort, amenities, and service we expected from a resort"

"Excellent hotel with lots of fun activity for small kids. Perfect holiday destination for a family."

"Nice resort in a nice surroundings. The staff very helpful. Two main problems. 1. The sea shore is across the street and you have to rent umbrellas and chairs separately. The hotel itself and the rooms are looked little bit old. With renovation it will be a wonderfull resort"

"Lovely stay. I wish I would have known about the deposit before coming to the resort. Beautiful property and lovely staff. I recommend staying "

"Hotel is the original Holiday inn in Phuket, rooms at a little tired but otherwise functional, however the bathroom had a funny smell the entire time, however the many issue is that all of the pictures etc., show a pool you do not have access to unless you purchase a premium room. This is not clearly specified! Within the small print it states that certain rooms have a number of pools but there is one poorly taken shot of the main pool with the remainder of the shots being of the pools available only to premium rooms. Also the in hotel shop sold us a faulty bag and then refused to refund. All in all, there are nicer hotels in Phuket for the money, I feel. "

"Everything was great. Except the long walk to everything. No elevator and a bit confused of getting around and back to your room. "

"Best service I’ve had at a hotel. Would love to be back for sure :) super nice staff "
