Katathani Phuket Beach Resort

Phuket, Thailand

Star rating

The hotel

In a secluded bay, overlooking a beach regarded as the most beautiful on Phuket, this is certainly an idyllic holiday choice. Soft golden sand to glide along, sunsets to admire, and, of course, beautiful accommodation, ranging from Junior Suites to those set back amongst trees and tropical flowers. Pampering pursuits include a full-service spa and a beauty salon, ensuring you look and feel your best. As well as lots of sports activities you can get involved in more cultural endeavours, take a Thai cooking class and learn how to carve those fancy fruit decorations or enjoy a workout whilst learning the art of Thai boxing. Finally, a word about those restaurants, there are several to choose from, serving Thai and Western delights for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There’s also La Scala for Italian cuisine and light music, plus several beach bars for an enticing tropical cocktail!

Wonderful week at Katathani. We stayed with 2 adults 2 kids in a junior suite room, plenty of space for how little you spend in the room.

Wonderful week at Katathani. We stayed with 2 adults 2 kids in a junior suite room, plenty of space for how little you spend in the room. Rooms were clean, well appointed, bed comfortable, not noisy, great air con. Everything is how the pictures show and you can see the resort takes pride in presentation and maintenance. We stayed with the luxury escape full board package - the buffet dinner was okay, we didn’t enjoy the Italian night buffet though. There is Al La Carte credit options you just need to be smart about it! There is enough food options to eat at the hotel if you wanted to. Drinks are reasonable for a hotel. We loved the cove and their pizzas! La Scala is great for fancy dining. As a family we are glad we were in the main part of the hotel not the Bhuri wing - this area is where the water park and kids club is and lots of people commented it was noisy and a bit far away from everything. There is a new section for families opening in December, fully complete in April next year. The staff and hotel were lovely! The resort is beautiful and the beach rivals our Aussie beaches! You can easily get a taxi/tuk tuk to wherever you want to go. There is plenty to do around without being in the middle of the busy kata beach. We would definitely come back and consider the new wing!

My stay at Katathani Resort Phuket was truly exceptional, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a stunning beachfront escape. The resort grounds are breathtaking—manicured, immaculate, and beautifully landscaped, stretching along the pristine beach with powdery white sand that feels like paradise underfoot. The beach itself is a highlight, with its soft, fine sand and crystal-clear waters, making it perfect for relaxation and scenic strolls. I initially booked a room with a pool connection, not realizing it was in the kids’ area. As a couple traveling without children, this wasn’t ideal. My fault However if you are traveling with children it would be awesome the set up was fantastic The staff was incredibly attentive, informing me that the adult wing was fully booked but promptly placing us on a waiting list. They managed to secure us two nights in the adult wing, which we gladly accepted, and it significantly elevated our experience. We stayed in Room 1116, which I highly recommend. The room was spacious, beautifully designed, and offered excellent privacy. The adult pool area was phenomenal—serene, well-maintained, and perfect for unwinding. That said, the adult wing could benefit from a bit more vibrancy, perhaps with additional activities or evening shows tailored specifically for adults. The dining experience at Katathani Resort Phuket was another highlight. The all-you-can-eat buffet was impressive, offering a wide variety of delicious options. I particularly loved the concept of the chefs preparing fresh steak or fish dishes to order, adding a personalized touch. The themed cuisine nights at the buffet were also a delight, showcasing diverse flavors and keeping the dining experience exciting and varied. Overall, Katathani Resort Phuket exceeded our expectations. The stunning beach, exceptional staff, and fantastic dining options made our stay unforgettable. I would eagerly return and recommend this resort to couples seeking a perfect blend of relaxation and indulgence. Read less
