Thailand Beach Holidays

I recently stayed at Pakasai Resort in Krabi and had a generally positive experience, especially when it came to location and service. The resort is ideally situated—just a short and convenient walk to the water ferries, making it incredibly easy to explore nearby islands. This was one of the biggest highlights of the stay and made day trips seamless. The staff truly stood out. From check-in to breakfast service, everyone was warm, attentive, and eager to help. Nai and Dy in particular went above and beyond to make our stay feel special—their kindness and attention to detail did not go unnoticed. Overall, the team’s level of care made the experience feel welcoming and well-managed throughout. The rooms themselves were comfortable and nicely maintained. While they may not feel overly luxurious, they provided a pleasant and relaxing space to come back to after a day out. Breakfast was another strong point. There was a good variety of options, and the staff’s attentiveness during the meal service elevated the experience. One thing to note is that the resort does not offer a full spa on-site, which may be a downside for travelers specifically looking for a more comprehensive wellness or spa experience. Overall, Pakasai Resort is a solid choice if you’re prioritizing location, easy island access, and excellent service, with a comfortable (though not amenity-heavy) stay.

Beautiful beach and swimming pools. We had a great stay. Hotel allowed a very late checkout so we could go directly to our night flight

Kalima Resort & Spa is an excellent choice if you want to be close to Patong while still enjoying a peaceful setting away from the intensity and noise of the main area. The location offered the best of both worlds: easy access to Patong, without feeling immersed in the chaos. This was my second stay in a Junior Suite, and I was again extremely impressed with the layout, comfort and balcony view. The room felt spacious and thoughtfully designed, making it a particularly enjoyable place to relax. Breakfast was another highlight, with an extensive variety of options to suit different tastes. The shuttle service to and from Patong centre, running every two hours, was very convenient and made getting around simple. I also appreciated the newly added Executive Lounge, which was a thoughtful amenity and an ideal place to spend time while waiting, particularly during check-in or check-out. The updated resort app was an excellent companion throughout my stay. It made it easy to see what was happening, keep track of activities and book services across the resort. The staff at every level were outstanding, friendly, attentive and professional. A special mention must go to Omi, who exceeded my expectations during my stay in 2024 and once again made my 2026 visit especially memorable. Whenever I travel to Phuket Patong area, Kalima Resort & Spa will be my first choice. I would be delighted to stay here again.

Overall highly recommend 👌

Everything was great 👍 I would say the other pool by the restaurant needs new lounge change or place cushions on them.
