Gorgeous view and pool. Definitely need a scooter or something to explore with as its a little far from everything. The staff was nice but almost too concerned that we were okay? Sometimes its nice to just swim or eat breakfast in peace, with out being asked 19 times if everything is okay. They were super helpful though and drove us to a rental place and taxis and everything

Nice hotel shady staff
Was told upon arrival at that they were overbooked, and they tried to send us to a cheap condo very far away. Unfriendly, unprofessional staff. Tried to charge us extra and then tell us to "take it up with EPEDIA SHADY!

Great View, steep hills
Stay was great, be prepared to walk up steep hills just to get to your room. Only wish that laundry wasn't so ridiculously expensive, but you can just go to the local neighbor to do it for way cheaper.

Nice view gets old after 2 days.
The walk up the hill sucks as stated by everyone. Especially after a long day of working out. The taxi/cars are not allowed past a certain point. Taxis are hesitant to drive to you unless you use certain companies that want to charge a premium. I have a major gripe in that I was promised a breakfast for 2 and did not get it. Even with the email as proof. The view over the pool is great but your in the middle of nowhere. There are better places without the view for less. The kitchen often did not have many items on the menu available. You won't know until after you order in some cases.

A rental car/ Bike is necessary! My time was amazing, because I rented a car. Although, the hotel was far from the strip, I had the freedom of coming and going.

Not worth the extra $
The actual view from this place is great. Everything else is disappointing. We paid extra for a room that they guaranteed us would have wifi...but wifi wasnt available in our room for 7/10 days. We arranged for taxis with the front desk and found out later on that they were GROSSLY over priced because the front desk was basically ripping us off. The expedia listing says they have daily housekeeping...they would just come and sweep up and make the bed. We stayed for 10 days and the sheets were not changed a single time. Also if we ordered room service and left the plates in the sink, they just left them there. One day the water and television just stopped working, this lasted about 36 hrs. I understand that these things happen, but there was no explanation or apology. They obviously didn't care because they already had our money. We walk by the front desk on the way to our room and they didn't say a word about it. They waited for us to come down and ask and then basically said "oh ya its not working..". If you are going to spend the extra money on a place, I would not recommend this one. Come for dinner - its a great view. But the hotel is a rip off and your $ can go much further just about anywhere else.

My first 2 weeks of stay was wonderful the quite environment and amazing great food at the hotel one of the best local thai food I ate there everyday. The 3rd week started getting worst with the influx of china travel groups. They really were unbearably inconsiderate and noisy and dirty. There were no signs and notice to tell them to be considerate of other tenants sharing at the resort. Screaming and shouting at midnight and 6am in the morning. To make things worst i paid extra to transfer to the Jacuzzi deluxe room for my last 10 days of stay i was only able to use the jacuzzi 2x or 3x bcs there was no more hot water. It was very dissapointing and cost me a lot of extra money I could've just stay in my previous room wouldve been better.

They call it the View for good reason. Spectacular!! The rooms were clean and very nice but we had ants crawling on everything. Couldn't leave food out for more then 2 minutes. It's secluded so you will need a scooter or car to see the area. It's quite the hike up the hill from the parking lot. Then the stairs will get you If you are not in half decent shape. I counted 108 to get to my room. Lol. The pool is good to cool down but by the time you get back to your room you need to cool down again. Restaurant has good food but portions are small. AKA gym is right around the corner. Top notch facility so if you are going to Thailand to try kickboxing or mma this hotel is perfect. The only downfall besides the ants was the tour groups that came in late and we're very loud. Sound carries very well throughout the resort. I would stay again at the Expedia price but I found better in Rawai beach. Oh yeah I forgot to mention they have massive spiders

Great Hotel, Very poor location
Great hotel but location very far from anything. It's scenic and relaxing however there is nothing to do once you're there. It's not all inclusive and the pool shuts at 3pm. The road to even the closest shop is an hour plus walk away and taxis for a 20min ride ordered by hotel will cost 500 baht. Great hotel just too far away from anything to be worth it.

Regretful
The hotel located in secluded area and high up in the middle of a jungle. The road to the room is steep. Imagine how tiring it was to carry the luggage all the way up using the steep road. The breakfast is just so-so with the french toast being too oily for my liking. The receptionist does not seems to understand English well because when I explained I have paid the full amount through this website, she was so confused and insisted me to pay for the room charges again. I had t o explain to her for a while before she caught what I meant. 4WD vehicle will be more suitable to drive up to the hotel. Sedan car or any other car of the same height will be a nightmare as the road is too steep for the car. you will hear the sound of scratching. Not worth the stay.

Decent view from the Hotel
I got Free upgrade to spa room, 70% promotion discount during off season. Absolutely was nice. They have Helpful staff and clean rooms but above all, excellent view from rooms and pool!! I can't forget it!! It looks recently built so well kept and clean however you may have to rent a car or take expensive taxi from the airport to get here cause this hotel is really far from d airport and busy towns. But if you get through, d hotel would never let you down. Definitely I will come back again.

As the name suggests, the view is excellent rooms are large and clean, but some furniture already a bit worn no mosquito-nets at balcony-doors pool is nice, but no cleaning robot, water is changed weekly a scooter or car is a must have, but that is the price for the location with a perfect view ...

Hôtel dans un quartier qui permet de s’intégrer à la vie thaïlandaise. A 3 min de AKA, très près de l’épicerie et de centre de location de scooter, c’est un très bon départ! La piscine est fabuleuse et les petit balcons qui nous permettent de voir les levés du soleil sont des wow de la place! Le resto était fermé encore donc on a dû s’organiser pour se faire livrer (confinement initial) Super pour un prix pas élevé!

Satisfaisant mais excentré
++ : superbe vue, piscine au top, chambre correcte, personnel attentif et à l'écoute. - - : localisation trop éloignée. La location du scooter est obligatoire et trop chère via l'hotel qui ne veut pas negocier le prix comme il est possible de le faire dans le pays entier

Hotel ist sehr schön und die Aussicht !!!
Atemberaubende Aussicht auf Phuket vom Zimmer oder vom Pool aus. Wir hatten Ameisen und Spinne. Im Zimmer deshalb haben wir es gewechselt und mit dem Manager gesprochen. der hat uns dann ein viel krasseres Zimmer gegeben mit noch besserer Aussicht ohne Aufpreis. Da waren viel weniger Insekten aber durch ein insektenspray war es sehr auszuhalten. Das Essen in der früh ist gut von Getränken haben wir Durchfall bekommen deswegen immer selber gehakauft aber denke dass ist üblich in Thailand. Im allg waren die Zimmer sehr schön wenn man nichts gegen kleine Insekten hat ist das top. Ansonsten würde ich mir das nochmal überlegen oder wie wir täglich ein insektenspray kaufen. Das Personal war super! Alle sehr freundlich engagiert und immer gut gelaunt. Die Aussicht war mit Abstand das aller beste, die frische Luft und der Anblick auf Phuket’s kleinen Part. Allerdings kommt man hier bissl schwer hoch. Zu Fuß ist es anstrengend weil es auf einem Berg liegt aber die meisten Autos oder mit dem Roller fahren da easy hin.

Boka ej
Tyvärr levde detta hotell inte alls upp till förväntningarna. Hotellet har ingen spa-avdelning och ligger dåligt till såvida man inte är där för utsikten och utsikten enbart. Tränar man på AKA som ligger i närheten rekomenderar jag ändå ett annat hotell. För detta pris finns bättre alternativ. Rekomenderas absolut inte till barnfamiljer eller äldre då området är mycket brant. Personalen i receptionen saknar tyvärr servicekänsla och försvårade min vistelse när min dusch inte fungerade. Harvarken hört eller upplevt något bra med detta hotell. Boka ej.

Bra läge för den vältränade som uppskattar motion
Jättefin utsikt. Trevlig personal, men tyvärr dålig engelska på de flesta. Rummen var fina och hade en bra standard för pengarna. Läget var bra för dem som har eget fordon och känner till området. Ett fordon är nästan ett krav för dem som vill gå ut och roa sig och äta på bättre restauranger än vad hotellet hat att erbjuda. Priserna i restaurang och mina bar var väldigt lågt. Det största problemet är att hitta till hotellet och ta sig till rummet från parkeringen. En icke vältränad person måste anstränge sig kraftigt varje gång man ska upp och ner till lobbyn. Inget för den handikappade.
