The hotel is located on a very busy road, making walking to nearby cafes feel a bit dangerous. The sea view rooms have a nice view and there are ear plugs in the room for the constant road noise. Unfortunately, enjoying the balcony is difficult to enjoy due to the noise and the sewer smell.
The infinity pool is lovely, and drinks prices are reasonable for chair service. Rooms are nicely decorated, the beds are comfortable and the shower is very nice with great pressure. But, I wouldn't stay again due to the road noise.
Response from Property: Dear andi-f,Thank you very much for taking the time to share such detailed feedback following your recent stay with us. We are pleased to know that you enjoyed the sea view, infinity pool, comfortable bed, room design, strong shower pressure, and the reasonably priced poolside drinks service.At the same time, we sincerely regret that road noise significantly affected your comfort, particularly when using the balcony, and that you also experienced an unpleasant sewer odor. We fully understand how these issues could detract from the enjoyment of a sea-view room. Your comments regarding both the noise impact and odor have been shared with our Engineering and relevant operational teams for further review and appropriate follow-up.We also appreciate your observation regarding walking along the nearby road. As our resort is located on a hillside along the main route between Kalim and Patong, pedestrian conditions outside the property may not always be ideal, and we understand your concern regarding comfort and safety when walking to nearby venues.Thank you once again for highlighting both the positive aspects of your stay and the areas requiring improvement. We are sorry to learn that the road noise would prevent you from returning, and we genuinely appreciate your candid feedback, which will help us continue improving the overall guest experience.Warm regards,Tanyaphat RaheriaResort Manager

I decorated the room simply for my birthday. I was a bit disappointed with the sea-view room on the first floor; there's a small road right outside with motorcycles and cars passing by, though it wasn't too noisy. I thought I'd be able to see the pool, but I couldn't. There's a shuttle service, which saved us some taxi fare. Overall, the service was quite good, and the environment was nice. I still felt the price was a bit high. We only went to the pool once for photos and didn't explore other areas, which felt a bit like a waste. The spa prices were high.

This time, I stayed at this hotel during my trip to Thailand.
From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly kind and helpful, and check-in was smooth. I had some anxieties about traveling abroad, but the staff's attentive service put me at ease and allowed me to relax.
The room was clean and spacious enough for a comfortable stay. The bed was very comfortable, and I was able to fully recover from my travel fatigue. The facilities were well-maintained, and I didn't experience any inconvenience during my several-day stay.
The hotel's ambiance was wonderful, offering a true resort feel that really immersed me in the Thai experience. I particularly loved the stunning scenery and atmosphere around the hotel; it was a comforting space to return to.
The location was also convenient, making it easy to go sightseeing, dine out, and get around the city. The staff were very helpful with transportation like taxis, which was reassuring for my first trip to Thailand.
Overall, the hotel had a calm atmosphere, which I think makes it ideal for those looking to relax during their trip. The staff's smiles and thoughtfulness left a lasting impression, and I truly felt that staying here was a great choice.
A significant part of what made this trip such a wonderful memory was the comfortable stay at this hotel.
If I have the chance to visit Thailand again, I would definitely love to stay here once more.
Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We stayed here for our honeymoon in 2023 and loved the infinity pool, so we booked Kalima Resort again for this vacation. To be honest, I was quite disappointed. The linens were dirty; we asked for them to be changed, but the replacements were still dirty... The room was quite damp, making for an uncomfortable sleep. However, the hotel staff's service attitude is commendable; they even have dedicated Chinese-speaking staff, and the breakfast is very rich. It would be great if the cleanliness details could be improved.

Love the resort! There’s so many activities to enjoy within the resort, so you can easily have a great time even if you decide to just stay in.
There’s also a good variety of halal options for breakfast. The staff were friendly and the service was great overall.
The only downside is that there are quite a lot of stairs around the resort, so it may not be the most convenient for some people.
Overall, enjoyed our stay!

The hotel's front desk service was decent; they even offered a free room upgrade, which initially led me to expect a pleasant stay. However, the reality was quite disappointing.
After checking into the upgraded room, I found a cockroach while showering. When I reported it to the hotel, staff only came to do a perfunctory cleaning, and the solution was very superficial. Later, the room frequently had issues with hot water, which would come and go, severely impacting my stay. Only after we complained did the hotel help us switch rooms.
While the service attitude was acceptable, the hardware facilities were terrible, and hygiene was a serious concern. The core experience of staying here was very poor, and I wouldn't recommend it.

Kalima Resort & Spa – A Hotel We'd Love to Return To
We first discovered Kalima because of the Japanese restaurant on the hotel grounds. We were immediately impressed by the panoramic views and the famous infinity pool – so much so that we booked a few nights there almost immediately after dinner.
And honestly, the hotel exceeded our expectations.
The service here is truly top-notch, the infrastructure is excellent, and the staff are incredibly attentive. We appreciated the attention to detail: you can easily contact the reception, order services, and book activities through a convenient app, saving a lot of time on organizational matters.
I particularly want to highlight the staff – all employees are very friendly, attentive, and respond quickly to any requests. Housekeeping was done daily and to a high standard, without any complaints.
The breakfasts deserve special mention. The selection is truly impressive: Japanese and Italian cuisine, BBQ, a wide variety of fresh fruits, desserts, a chocolate fountain, and a DIY bar with mojitos and other cocktails. There's also a separate coffee bar where you can order coffee drinks or a matcha latte. We couldn't even try everything in just a few days.
Another pleasant bonus is the recently opened sauna next to the main pool. It's very well-equipped, and thanks to regular cleaning, it's always clean and fresh inside, without any damp smell.
The hotel is located a bit away from the main city infrastructure. However, this is perfectly compensated by the free shuttle service to and from Jungceylon, which runs throughout the day.
Ultimately, we had such a wonderful time that we decided to extend our stay for an additional night. For us, this is probably the best indicator of how much we loved the hotel.
A big thank you to the entire team at Kalima Resort & Spa for a wonderful vacation. I'm sure this was far from our last stay here – we will definitely be back again.
