"Property, although a bit dated makes up with excellent service. There was a sewage smell in the first room I was given which I believed was caused by torrential rains the area had been having. Hotel cleaning staff seem to have tried to mask it to best of their ability with heavily scented deodorizers ..."

Wonderful and peaceful
"We were upgraded to a Beachfront Pool Villa (thanks Vijitt!), and it was the most amazing setting. The private pool and view is magnificent, and the rooms are lovely. It was very private. We loved the beach, even though there are no waves, the quietness makes up for it."

However, the property has a few issues that would be better if the management ..."

Rawai beach was the best spot for a week of our stay. We stopped by the most famous Putnam beach in Phuket, terrible smells and too many people. At Rawai beach, you can take a boat for from 2000 bht to go to coral islands.

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

If I visit Phuket again, I would not go to Rawai, as there’s not much there at all.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

It’s a less busy feeling city than Patong and a more relaxed vibe.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

Once the road is finished with construction, the area will be very pleasant. There are many very nice beaches to visit by taxi or motorbike. There is a dolphin show, grocery stores, and many other things to see in this area. Rent a motorbike!
