Hotels Near Aqua Kingdom Phuket in Phuket

Having not being able to travel to Asia for almost 2 years i was happy to take part of the ”Phuket Sandbox”. Lots of paperwork to do, but all in all it worked well. BOOKING. I booked direct with the hotel. I was offered a good price and they were answering all my questions fast and friendly. Also they were very helpful informing me about the rules and changes for the Sandbox. ARRIVAL The booked SHA Plus Transfer from the hotel worked well. Check in was fast and after a long flight i was just happy to get to my villa. ROOM/VILLA So spacious. I booked a 1 bedroom Villa, But became a villa with 2 bedrooms. Large and comfortable living Room with a fuly equipped kitchen and a large refrigirator and fridge. Well assorted minibar. Bedroom with a very comfortable double bed. Bathroom with bathtub and shower. I had a small issue with not having hot water but it was fixed immediatly. Large terrace with table and 4 chairs, 2 sunbeds and a swimming pool (6 x 3 Meter). Villa was clean and terrace/garden well maintained. SERVICE All the staff were sweet, kind and friendly and very attentive. The very friendly italian manager is always around FOOD Not many guests in the hotel so no full breakfast buffet, but you could order eggs any style. Some fruit, cereals, coffe and tea- One morning the manager asked me if i missed something for breakfast. I said maybe some muesli and yogurt. Well next morning it was there. Perfect. I had often dinner in the restaurant. Food was so tasty and well presented. And at very reasonable prices. They do serve both western and Thai food. AREA/SURROUNDINGS Paklok is not a typical tourist spot.It is a place where people are living. No beach, Not a shop or restaurant on every corner. But many possibilities to enjoy fantastic street food. Easy to get in touch with local people. Many supermarkets for all your daily needs. You do need a car or a Scooter/Motorbike. Nature around the hotel is stunning and beautiful. I rented a mototbike from the hotel and made many trips to beautiful locations in the area. I never missed the noise from Patong. ALL IN ALL If you are looking for a peaceful and luxurious accomodation with good service and food i can highly recommand Boutique Resort. I also did enjoy the beauty of nature and the feeling of being in the real Thailand and not just in noisy tourist area.

Room 314 Thank you for the honeymoon decorations... Love it The 2 boys during check in very friendly... Everything perfect Except... The housekeeping knocked on our room twice before 12pm, asking to check out..... It's only few minutes before 12... I was pooping.... 😠😠

We were greeted warmly at the hotel reception area which looks out to the amazing swimming pool that envelopes the entire resort. Due to the extra documentation required, checking in will naturally be longer than usual. Fingers crossed you will not get a queue in front of you when you step into the hotel :) The room assigned to us was lovely even though it was the lead in category room. It was spacious enough for 2 persons, and everything looked brand new as the hotel was built in 2020. We tried to request for an upgrade but due to their high occupancy, they were unable to upgrade us. However, they more than compensated by sending a birthday cake plus complimentary birthday cocktails for us, as we were both celebrating our birthdays in Phuket. The buffet breakfast was the highlight of our stay. Every morning, despite how tired we were, we dragged ourselves to the restaurant, spent like 2-3 hours going through the selections and savoring everything they have to offer. I cannot believe they also provide items like crepes, ice cream, parma ham and different curries for breakfast as they are not typical breakfast dishes. I was very impressed. The services from the hotel staff exceeded our expectations. We tried to tip as much as we could, seeing that the service industry has taken a big hit during the pandemic for a place like Phuket. They were all really appreciative. Special shout out to Benoit, the Director of Sales/Operations for the hotel. He was very patient, friendly, professional and went above and beyond to ensure everything works out smoothly prior to our arrival. Thank you once again Ben, you have definitely helped made this trip a very memorable one for the both of us. Seeing that the restrictions are slowly lifted by the Thai government, please take a leap of faith and take that long awaited vacation in the land of smiles :-D Happy vacationing and stay safe everyone!

I like the hotel which is not too far from tourist areas, convenient for foods which are walking distance. However, the wifi is not stable, it keep broken off, and need to reconnect. The speed is not up to my expectation.

Rooms are specious and clean, nothing special from a design or quality perspective, but nice enough to sleep and rest there. There is a lot of facilities, big gym, games room, swiming pool is not the cleanest to be honest, but still can be used. Stuff is friendly and restaurant got good pizza.

Great place to stay, pool was really nice, room was huge and spotless, Staff were very welcoming and friendly if you are looking for access to beaches go elsewhere. Outstanding value for money. Lots of street food near by and the hotel restaurant was very good, its also a 3 minute stroll from a huge Big C supermarket. Would definitely stay again. The bed was a bit on the hard side but as I was using the hotel to get over jet lag for a couple of nights it was not really an issue, so nothing bad to say

Paper-thin wall. You can literally hear everything your next door neighbor says. Also everything the cleaner/housekeeper says when they are cleaning the corridor. No hair dryer and no Hair towel. Only large towels are provided. Check-in and check out process took a long time even though there was no queque. The reception took her time and was distracted by this and that instead of finishing one task at a time. I was kept standing and waiting. Swimming pool has a bar, but everytime I went there is no staff.

Our stay was very short as we just needed a place close to the airport but we were not disappointed. The hotel is very close to the airport, and they have a free shuttle that run within specific times. They also have a free shuttle to the beach and shuttles to get you around the property.

I think it is really close to hotel with complimentary shuttle bus really a plus, services is good and nearby there is a 7-11 a coffee shop

Ibis Kata is located nearby Kata beach. The hotel has been around for a while, providing many bedrooms and lots of activities. The hotel itself is abit dated. Reception always get busy. Swimming pool area and breakfast area is pretty decent. There's also a shuttle van from hotel to kata beach and back (5 times a day). Although it is walkable distance too (have to walk around club med area). The telephone in our room is not working during the stay though. And also one of the elevator is out of service during the time as well. Anything else is decent and quite good. The bar lobby area is good for mingle with friends and families. There is also a taxi service from hotel to the airport, you can simply book in advance with the reception team. It is 1000.00 Thai Baht. Special shout out to K. Rujiret (Asst. Front Office Manager) and the crew for being so friendly and going extra miles to help each customer's request.
