Top 31 things to do and attractions in Kata Beach

This was NOT what we expected. In a good way! This place is unreal. I grew up watching Jurassic Park and this really hit the mark. The animatronics are wild. While our little one was in awe of the dinosaurs and hitting the gold ball 200 times (we made sure he won) we adults were in awe of the logistics of how it all comes together. Worth going to, we went during the day but seems like it would be a vibe at night. You can’t take drinks in but there’s a themed bar you can go to at the end.

Dino Park Mini Golf is a great spot! The park is huge, and the moving, sound-making dinosaurs make the experience unforgettable. The mini golf course is a highlight, offering 18 unique and creative holes. It’s a perfect, secured activity for both couples and families with children. Highly recommend stopping here for a fun time.

The dinosaur-themed mini golf course provided a great experience. The varying difficulties presented on each hole added a good challenge. The dinosaur theme created an immersive and engaging experience; the creativity and effort put into the design were truly commendable. The overall experience was a perfect blend of fun and excitement for all ages. It was a memorable outing that I would happily revisit. The quality of the course and its execution made the experience better! Also, purchase tickets online as they are 490 THB compared to 790 THB at the entrance.

This mini golf course was hands-down the best one we’ve ever been to! 🦖⛳ It was so much fun, and the attention to detail on the dinosaurs was incredible — they looked amazing and really brought the whole place to life. The restaurant was great too — we loved the atmosphere, the food was tasty, and it made for the perfect spot to relax after a few rounds. All around, we had a wonderful time here and would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for something fun and unique to do!

Nice place with good food, but it’s hard to find halal options here. For halal choices, it’s mainly vegetarian Pad Thai or grilled seafood. The atmosphere is lovely and worth a visit if you know what to order.”

Very nice place to visit with child. The mini golf around the park was a great idea. We enjoyed the restaurant as well. The prices are higher than the other places but the cocktails were good.

Place is very cool, golf itself quite nah. Too easy (definitely made for very kids), even though we are complete noobs we did each hole in 3-4 hits. Also it took us less than 30 mins to complete the full path.

Yummy banana and Nutella roti that was crispy and generous in fillings (tho slightly on the higher side in terms of price) But overall - felt like a tourist trap having to haggle for prices of clothings. Would prefer Chillva where prices of items are clearly stated instead of having to haggle.

We had some good foods at the Kata Night Market. Highly recommend the following vendors: Crispy Prawns, Coconut Ice Cream, Mr. Coconut Station. We had a bad experience with the Seafood Lovers. The price for the lobster was $2,000 Bahts for 1kg. We picked one, asked them to weight it. They said that they don’t weigh. They charge per lobster. The price for crabs was 4 for $500 bahts. They pick different sizes, mostly very small ones. Customers can’t pick. The cashier was the rude. Don’t waste your time at the Seafood Lovers.

By far the BEST night market in Phuket area! The food stalls are very clean with high standards, especially comparing to any other market in Phuket I got to visit. We tried quite a few options and everything was so delicious, while the prices were very low considering the quality of the food, so 10/10 value for money! I really recommend the gyoza stall where they not only fry them by order, but they actually fold them by hand right in front of you! Another hit was obviously the banana roti stand - warm and delicious, just melts in your mouth. Another one on the sweet side was the mango sticky rice stall, where you can choose the flavors of the rice out of 4 options - original white rice, blue butterfly pea flower rice, green pandan rice or red dragon fruit rice. Lastly, make sure to not skip the coconut ice cream stall! They carve the entire inside of coconut and add its flesh to vanilla ice cream, mix everything together and then return it to the coconut and use it as a bowl. You can then add your own toppings, unlimited! Literally there wasn't a single dish we tried and got disappointed, also when comparing to "real" Thai restaurants, which says a lot! If you're in Phuket area, make sure to visit this amazing market!!

Kata Night Market (ตลาดนัดกะตะ) A lively and fun night market with great food options and a friendly vibe. You’ll find everything from grilled seafood, mango sticky rice, fresh fruit shakes, Thai snacks, and desserts—all at reasonable prices. The portions are good, and most stalls keep everything clean and fresh. There are also stalls selling clothes, souvenirs, bags, handmade crafts, and small accessories. It’s not too big, so you can explore the entire market in 30–45 minutes without feeling rushed. The vendors are warm and not pushy, which makes the experience more enjoyable. Perfect place to grab dinner, try local dishes, and pick up small gifts. A must-visit if you’re staying in Kata or nearby!

We went there after a long day. We walked around the market. There are plenty of food stalls and kiosks. It started raining heavily when we were eating so we had to take cover under under the shades. The prices here are relatively cheap and you can find a big variety of stuff

The food stall variety here is great. They are very clean with high standards, especially comparing to any other markets in Phuket. We tried quite a few options; steamed fish, gyoza, vegetables, noodles and mango sticky rice and everything was delicious. Prices were amazing, especially considering the quality of the food. 100% recommend.

A must-visit for food lovers and culture seekers! The night market is bursting with energy, delicious aromas, and colorful stalls. From sizzling street food to unique local snacks, every bite was a treat. The variety of shops and vendors made it a perfect place to explore, bargain, and discover hidden gems

It is a quiet enough beach, without a lot of entertainment venues. Most often people come to this beach, stay in a hotel and try not to go far away, enjoying a quiet vacation. The beach is small in size: its length is about 700 meters. In high season there are a lot of tourists here, but compared to the previous beaches: Kata and Karon, there is a place to stay! Kata Noi beach is quite a famous vacation spot among tourists. The flora here is made up of trees of mixed species, nevertheless, the beach is open enough to spread the sun's rays. Be sure to use high UV protection creams when sunbathing here. The sand here is soft, light gray in color. The entrance to the sea is medium deep. The water is clear, blue-green color! The wind in the high season is not strong. The bulk of vacationing tourists are concentrated at the hotels adjacent to the beach.

The most gorgeous beach! So quiet, calm, peaceful. Perfect view, Turquoise water, located between the rocks. Amazing!

Kata Noi Beach (หาดกะตะน้อย) One of the most peaceful and beautiful beaches in Phuket. The water is incredibly clear with a soft turquoise shade, and the sand is clean and smooth—perfect for relaxing or taking photos. It’s much quieter than Kata Beach, which makes it ideal if you want a calm and less crowded spot. There are a few local shops and cafés nearby, but the beach itself stays very natural. Waves can get a bit strong depending on the season, so it’s great for swimming when calm and fun for light surfing when waves pick up. Clean, scenic, and super relaxing. A must-visit if you’re in Phuket!

Witnessing the sunset here is truly an unforgettable experience—arguably one of the best in the world. As the sun dips below the horizon, the sky transforms into a breathtaking canvas of warm hues, creating a serene and almost magical atmosphere. The setting is peaceful and calming, offering the perfect moment for reflection or simply to unwind and take in the natural beauty. Whether you’re a photographer, a traveller seeking memorable views, or simply someone who appreciates nature’s wonders, this sunset is not to be missed.

Kata Noi Beach in Phuket is such a beautiful and relaxing place! The water is clear, the sand is soft, and it’s surrounded by lovely green hills. The waves are a bit bigger than at other beaches, which makes it even more fun to swim and play around. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy the sun, take great photos, and just have a fun, relaxing day by the sea! 🌴☀️🌊

The views from here were awesome and great place to relax, BUT like it's neighboring beaches, you're immediately greeted with so much rubbish. There's some parts that are less trashy than others. Even in the water, You'll be swimming with plastic bags. It's not just ropes or fishing lines, but general trash as well. I've seen toothbrushes and food packaging. There's no rinse off station and you'll have to pay to use the bathroom. Most of the beach is taken over by beach chairs that are for rent. Lifeguards are present in this location.

Nice beach , affordable seats price and you can find all kinds of drinks & snacks there , I didn’t check if there is any public restrooms available, but there is 1 issue I recommend don’t sit next to the Shore hotel because on the edge of the beach there is a smelly water coming from Inland.

**Visted last week, It was closed temporarily due to land slide** 🙏 A majestic 45 m white-marble statue offering stunning island views from Nakkerd Hill. 🌅 Peaceful, spiritual, and perfect for photos. It was raining and foggy, weather was Nice and it is partly uphill, so visit early or at sunset. 🛕 Dress modestly—shoulders and knees covered. Some areas may be restricted, but still worth a visit for the views and calm vibe.

Even though The Big Buddha is currently closed, it’s still absolutely worth the visit — you can easily reach the parking area, which offers an astonishing panoramic view over the whole of Phuket, with a peaceful breeze and perfect photo spots. The road going up is also very pleasant, lined with small local businesses, cozy roadside cafés, and even a few elephant owners along the way, giving the whole trip a very authentic and charming local feel. You’ll also often find playful monkeys near the top, adding extra excitement to the experience 🐒🌿 A beautiful and memorable stop in Phuket!

It is closed now a days for some work or renovation.. If you are going only to see the Budha then better don't visit.. Pls check before you go in future.. You can see view of city and beach from top.. Attaching few photos

The Big Buddha of Phuket is truly breathtaking. Sitting high on Nakkerd Hill and facing the ocean, the statue offers stunning panoramic views of the island and the Andaman Sea. The atmosphere is peaceful and spiritual — a perfect place for quiet reflection away from the busy beaches. The statue itself is impressive in size and beautifully crafted in white marble, shining brightly in the sunlight. A must-see landmark that captures both the beauty and serenity of Phuket.

The temple is not accessible for the moment due to an earth slide. We drove up to site anyways where we got a look at the side of the Buddah. It has monkeys and chickens in the parking lot which were the better reason for taking pictures. On the way up to the temple is an elephant tourist attraction with baby elephants separated from their family, chained to the ground and fenced off. All elephants showed stereotypes. We didn't stop for that animal abuse of course, I'm just mentioning it as it outrages me to still see such places being visited and suppoted by ignorant tourists.

Rate for the scenery where you can get Phuket city view one side and ocean view the other. Pity that the way up to The Big Buddha is closed for renovation until further notice… which is unknown.

We couldn’t get all the way up to the Buddha because of a landslide, which was a bit of an anticlimax, but the view was nice and there were some funny monkeys messing with the visitors. Luckily, the girl with the slingshot was nearby

Really disappointing you can't leave one Chang in the tap any more during happy hour. Been coming 6 weeks and was never a problem. Great decision 🤣

Amazing location just off the beach with great food, drinks and surfing lessons. We stayed here for a while and ordered one of the huge pizzas and a Chang tower. It had a great atmosphere and the staff were lovely.

Amazing lasagna! Beautiful decoration. Got a 1 for 1 beer promotion, however they serve it immediately, it doesn't stay cold even with the ice bucket so I'd recommend going with a friend 😆

Ok place but super crowded, spent most of our time waiting in line and just more and more people dropping in during our hour. Patong was better!

Good for surfing 1200 baht for 1 hour

Unprofessional and Unfair Experience – Very Disappointed Our group of 8 arrived at the surf house at 11:15, ready to go. We politely asked if we could start our session at 11:30, but the staff told us it was only possible to begin on the hour. So we waited until 12:00, assuming that was our only option. When we finally started at 12:00, it was just the 8 of us – which was fine – but between 12:15 and 12:25, the staff allowed *another* 8 people into the session. That meant we had to share the wave with double the amount of people for the majority of our paid hour, drastically cutting down on our time and experience. To make matters worse, only *after* we had waited 45 minutes were we told that it *is* possible to book 30-minute sessions. That information would have made a huge difference if we had known it earlier, but by then it was already too late. Overall, this felt poorly managed and unfair. The lack of clear communication and inconsistent policies negatively impacted our experience. If you're paying for a specific time slot, you expect it to be organized and respected. Sadly, this was not the case. I hope management seriously reviews how they handle scheduling and customer service – because no one wants to feel misled or shortchanged, especially in a group. --- Would you like a shorter version for posting as a public review (e.g. Google Reviews or TripAdvisor)?

Disappointing Experience at Surf House Kata – Not Tourist Friendly Anymore I rode my motorcycle to the Kata area of Phuket — a popular tourist spot I’ve visited many times over the years. I decided to stop at Surf House, a place I’ve been to multiple times and always enjoyed. I arrived, ordered a beer, and asked about the happy hour. The menu clearly stated a discount applies when ordering two beers, which I confirmed with the barman. He asked if I wanted both beers immediately — I said no, and ordered the second one about 10 minutes later from another staff member. I placed the second order in Thai — a language I’m confident enough in for something simple like ordering a drink. The staff member just gave me a blank look. I repeated my order, and he switched to English, asking if I wanted a beer. After handing it to me, I asked (again in Thai) if he had understood my order, and he suddenly started shouting, claiming he was just confirming my order in English. He was visibly angry and shouting loudly, which was completely unnecessary and uncomfortable. When I went to pay, the happy hour discount wasn’t applied. I was told by another staff member that my second drink “wasn’t a happy hour drink” — which makes no sense based on what was shown to me earlier and the timing of my order. Overall: extremely disappointing. What used to be a fun and relaxed spot now feels hostile and unfriendly to tourists. Based on this experience, I won’t be returning — and I can’t recommend it anymore.

Beautiful and Peaceful Temple in Phuket Wat Chalong is truly one of the most beautiful and spiritually calming places in Phuket. The temple grounds are very clean and well-maintained, with stunning architecture and intricate details that reflect true Thai craftsmanship. The atmosphere is peaceful, even though it can get busy with visitors—there’s still a strong sense of serenity and respect throughout the area. The main pagoda (Chedi) is impressive and offers a wonderful view from the upper floor. Inside, you can see relics of the Buddha and many fascinating murals that tell stories from his life. It’s a great place to learn more about Thai culture and Buddhism, whether you’re a believer or simply curious. Remember to dress modestly and remove your shoes before entering the temples—it’s a sign of respect. Overall, Wat Chalong is a must-visit if you’re in Phuket. It’s not just a tourist spot but also a meaningful cultural and spiritual experience.

A Peaceful and Spiritual Gem in Phuket Wat Chalong is one of the most beautiful and well-maintained temples in Phuket. The temple complex is grand yet peaceful, with stunning architecture, colorful decorations, and intricate details that reflect Thai culture and spirituality. The main pagoda is especially impressive — it houses a relic of the Buddha and offers a lovely view from the top. Even though it’s a popular tourist spot, the atmosphere remains calm and respectful. The grounds are clean, the gardens are well-kept, and there are monks around offering blessings. It’s a great place to learn about local traditions, take beautiful photos, and spend a quiet moment away from the busy beaches. Definitely a must-visit attraction when you’re in Phuket!

We visited Wat Chalong Temple on 1st October as part of a city sightseeing tour with our family (2 adults and 2 kids). The temple was one of the highlights of our trip. The entire premises were very clean and well maintained, with beautiful architecture and peaceful surroundings. Wat Chalong is one of the most respected temples in Phuket and holds great importance in Thai culture. It’s dedicated to two highly revered monks, Luang Pho Cham and Luang Pho Chuang, who played a key role in helping local people during the 19th-century rebellion. Their images are still worshipped here, and many locals visit to seek blessings for good health and peace. There are some shops inside the temple compound where you can buy souvenirs and local handicrafts at reasonable prices. Even our kids enjoyed exploring the temple grounds and the market area. Overall, Wat Chalong offers a blend of history, spirituality, and calm—definitely worth visiting when in Phuket. No charges for visiting this awesome place.

This place has really great view and the surroundings is also calm and quiet. Inside it has paintings of stories of King Siddharth becoming Buddha but in thai. Idols are also beautiful but some are not understandable. The view from the window is so scenic. Good place to relax your mind ..

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wat Chalong is a truly remarkable temple and a must-visit in Phuket. The moment you step inside, you feel a sense of peace and positive energy. Its intricate architecture, golden Buddha statues, and colorful murals beautifully reflect Thai faith and culture. The temple grounds are spacious, clean, and inviting — perfect for quiet reflection, prayer, or making merit. Locals are kind and welcoming, making the experience even more meaningful. Whether you’re returning an amulet, lighting incense, or simply admiring the artistry, Wat Chalong radiates serenity and devotion. A deeply spiritual and memorable visit.

Of all of them, Wat Chalong is the largest and perhaps the most revered temple. Located eight kilometers outside Phuket Town, the temple sits, awaiting your arrival to discover its magnificence both spiritually and architecturally.The temple is renowned for its stunning architecture, which features intricate decorations and multiple pagodas. It is dedicated to two highly revered monks, Luang Pho Chaem and Luang Pho Chuang, who were instrumental in healing locals during a 19th-century rebellion. The temple's grand pagoda houses a sacred relic, a fragment of bone from the Buddha. Visitors are expected to dress modestly and remove their shoes before entering the temple buildings.

Wat Chalong is one of the most beautiful and important temples in Phuket. There’s convenient parking available just before the temple area, making it easy to visit. Visitors should dress modestly — shoulders and knees should be covered — as it’s an active place of worship. The temple grounds are peaceful and beautifully decorated, offering a truly pleasant and spiritual experience. It is free to visit as well! :)

We visited Karon Viewpoint on 1st October as part of a city sightseeing tour with our family (2 adults and 2 kids). It was one of the most scenic stops on our trip. From the top, you get a breathtaking panoramic view of Phuket’s famous beaches — Patong, Karon, and Kata — lined up beautifully along the coastline. On the opposite side, you can also spot the majestic Big Buddha sitting atop Nakkerd Hill, which makes the view even more impressive. Historically known as *Three Beaches Hill* or *Kata Viewpoint*, this spot has long been a popular stop for both locals and tourists to admire Phuket’s natural beauty. It’s an important landmark because it perfectly captures the island’s charm — the mix of green hills, turquoise waters, and golden beaches in one frame. The place is well maintained, with viewing platforms and shaded areas to relax and take photos. Our kids loved the open space and the fresh breeze at the top. Overall, Karon Viewpoint is a must-visit for anyone who wants to experience the best of Phuket’s landscape and enjoy a bit of peace away from the busy beaches.

The Karon Viewpoint Thai name is Kho Sam Haad, which means ‘The Hill of the Three Beaches’, and once we reached the place, just as promised, we saw three beaches. So, if this is your first trip to Phuket, you probably will stop for a few minutes at this popular and beautiful panoramic landmark to admire the view from the top of the hill. The closest and smallest one is Kata Noi Beach. A bit further, we could see the beautiful Kata Beach with its island ‘Koh Poo’, which means Crab Island, and far, we could also spot the very long beach of Karon.

Beautiful view. Plenty of spots to take photos. However, it is a bit of a tourist trap, but it’s not obnoxious. You can find some spots to sit down and just take it in without being bombarded with people trying to sell you stuff.

Breath taking sunset.....so so marvellous and beautiful. Do visit this place 30 minutes before sunset to get a good spot on the viewpoint. Overall have a lot of space to sit around and take photos too.

Karon Viewpoint, also known as Three Bays Viewpoint, is a must-visit spot in Phuket, Thailand. It offers a breathtaking panoramic view of three stunning bays: Kata Noi, Kata Yai, and Karon. The scenery is absolutely mesmerizing, with the turquoise waters meeting the golden sands and lush greenery. The viewpoint is easily accessible, making it a popular destination for tourists. You can take some fantastic photos here, especially during sunrise or sunset when the light is at its best. The viewpoint itself is well-maintained, with clear signs and information about the area. However, the natural beauty of this place is something we must protect. To preserve the beauty of Karon Viewpoint, it's crucial to practice responsible tourism. Always dispose of your trash properly in designated bins. Avoid littering and consider bringing your own reusable water bottle to reduce plastic waste. By taking these simple steps, we can all contribute to keeping this beautiful spot pristine for future generations. Welcome 🤗

Walk around 2.5 kilometres, and the road gradually inclines as you near Karon Viewpoint. Just a short distance uphill from Karon town, Karon Viewpoint is one of the must-visit spots on this side of the island. From this famous lookout, you’ll be treated to a sweeping vista of the cove with three beaches, Kata Noi, Kata, and Karon. The beautiful view makes an excellent backdrop for PHOTOS. We went there by car so didn't had to walk. Have a parking lot just in the entrance.

Karon Viewpoint is absolutely worth a stop — I highly recommend staying for a while to soak in the stunning panoramic scenery and capture some truly unique photos 😊 The trio of beaches lined up below, the vibrant colors of the sea, and the peaceful breeze make it one of the most memorable spots in Phuket, so don’t rush your visit and enjoy every moment

We went a few times. Was such a chilled back atmosphere. Great spot for watching the waves and chilling. You can smoke weed if that's something you want to do. They sell it as well. It's linked to the seafood restaurant so you can also sit in the bar part and ask to order snack food from restaurant. We had a pizza and it was nice enough. But it's more the chill vibe, good service and friendly atmosphere id recommend it for.

Ska Bar is conveniently located right by Kata Beach and has a super relaxed, beachy atmosphere. Reggae music played in the background, twinkle lights were strung up all around — it’s a really cute setup that feels effortlessly cool. We were seated straight away, didn’t have to wait long for food, and everything was surprisingly affordable — one of my dishes was just 80 baht! The food was tasty, and being a semi-outdoor space, it was perfect even though I came in a bit sandy from the beach. A great casual spot to unwind after the ocean.

It's a amazing place. Some of the food items are very large. Huge menu to choose from. Prices are nice. Smoothie 60 baht, chang 100/140 baht. This establishment puts on a faer show every Tuesday, Friday and Saturday at 9pm. We recommend it, it's WOW.

🇹🇭 Ska Bar & Kata Seafood is more than just a restaurant; it's an experience that fulfills all your senses. Here, you'll truly experience the beauty of nature. The restaurant is located on Kata Beach, allowing you to dine while overlooking the endless blue sea. The gentle sea breeze creates a relaxing atmosphere. Besides the beautiful sea views, you can also see the majestic mountains and the magnificent Big Buddha not far away. Eating delicious food while enjoying such a beautiful view is a happiness you'll fall in love with. The food here is also second to none. The fresh seafood menu is prepared with bold flavors that will surely satisfy Thai taste buds. If you're looking for a restaurant that's both delicious and has a beautiful view, Ska Bar & Kata Seafood is an option you shouldn't miss.😘

The SKA bar food was pretty decent. I thought the Papaya salad was seasoned well with a good balance of sweet and sour. Tom yum soup lacked the sour so we added more limes. They accept credit card and don't charge a surcharge. Total meal was 1320 baht. They play reggae music in the background which was a chill vibe. We saw a spectacular Sunday night fire show, there is none other like it. Athletic performers putting on a wonderful show.

4 for dinner and we have had lunch there previously, it is over hyped. The best thing is the location, the food is ok and is the same quality as you would get in the food market. Service ok at best nothing to rave about however the atmosphere and location is good , disappointed that the fire show wasn’t on as that is what we had gone down for but when asked the staff - no not on tonight, a German couple we met was also waiting and left disappointed. All in All it’s ok but it definitely doesn’t live up to the hype

One of the coolest spots in Phuket. Super chill reggae vibe right on the beach. Great sunset views and good energy. Small bar and unique atmosphere. Worth a stop for a beer or 10 beers and the view .

The food tasted really good, particularly if you can handle spice! My friend enjoyed her shrimp with noodles and my wife the amazing tom kha gai (very creamy), good potato salad and fried rice. My chicken tom yum was pretty good and beef red curry a very good flavour that left my mouth on absolute fire (I can handle spice well, but it also may not bother some people). The atmosphere was amazing with the friendly staff, very detailed decor inside and leading up to both entrances of the building and the relaxing Chinese music was very peaceful making us want to sit and enjoy the restaurant for longer. There were just a few things affecting my rating. I ordered a Singh beer off the menu and they only had Chang. I asked for something milk based to help with the spice and they recommended an apple shake which I assumed must be made with milk, but it was just a bit of juice in a lot of ice and didn’t help at all. The server brought out the wrong soup to start, but they replaced it quickly without an issue. My rice was much too small for the curry so a lot of that hot curry sauce went uneaten. It was also quite an expensive place to eat and we were really only paying that for the atmosphere, so if you don’t care about atmosphere, it’s probably not your place. But the food was good, the atmosphere great and the staff friendly, so plenty of food there too!

Beautiful authentic interior, large restaurant. Food - some dishes more successful, some less so. Soup portions are S, M and L. S is a regular portion like everywhere else. The others are doubled.

Great restaurant, very well decorated. Has a nice overall vibe. The food is delicious and the service is good as well. The reason for the one missing star is that our cocktails were undrinkable - there were way too much alcohol in them. You could sure get a cheap buzz from their drinks.

The pictures on the reviews here looks better than they actually tasted. Felt the reviews were overrated after trying the food. I’m the only Asian here, and after tasting I could understand why. It’s not really authentic Thai food. It’s catered to foreigners taste (especially lots of Russian here). Pad Thai was too sweet. Papaya salad was too salty. Nothing to wow on crab spring rolls. The service was excellent tho, but food wise, I wouldn’t come again.

Went here because reviews seemed pretty good, but overall I feel like it's overrated. The service is mostly great, but at times slightly awkward (not sure if some staff was in training). The food is not as good as it looks in the photos, we've had much better authentic Thai food from little food stalls delivered by GRAB food. Thought to try the crab spring rolls, but they were underwhelming, the papaya salad was unusually too salty, the pad Thai was too sweet and almost no taste. Only the whole steamed fish was good quality fresh fish. And 100baht for a young coconut, that's crazy expensive. We can get two better Thai young coconuts for that price in Singapore! It's also at the top of a small hill, so the hike isn't the most practical if you have a baby stroller.

One of the best restaurant with authentic Thai taste that I most recommend all Thai menu, it’s so good. Staff are friendly and excellent service. Convenience parking just behind the restaurant.

Beautifully designed restaurant, even the restrooms are beautiful and clean! The food was very good. We came here twice. Right now menu is off -15%. We tried out many dishes. Have a look at the pictures. I added full menu.

Was expecting great food & service for the amount paid. But unfortunately it was a disappointment. Really need to look into your food quality Kata Rocks. Reduce your minimum spends or increase the quality of your food. Dry & tasteless pizza 0/10 Factory tasting super spicy crab cake 1/10 Lobster spaghetti...poor taste 2/10 Scallops see for yourself 0/10 The pool also overrun with loud annoying young men ratio 20 to 1 to ladies. Maybe you should consider couples only day use. Service slow, not on par for 5 star hotel with these room rates. View & pool/ facilities cleanliness saved the day for the 2 stars. Also no DJ all day (so far at 4pm) and day use guests playing annoying music on their personal speakers. Not recommended

I recently had dinner at the restaurant in Kata Rocks and, although the setting was undeniably beautiful, the overall experience didn’t quite meet my expectations. The view is spectacular, especially at sunset, but the atmosphere felt a little too formal and distant for a seaside venue. I was hoping for something that felt more relaxed and connected to the Phuket island spirit. The menu presentation was elegant, yet I found the food somewhat overdesigned — technically refined, but missing the warmth and flavor that make dining memorable. The dishes looked impressive, but the taste didn’t stand out compared to many other restaurants in Phuket, even those at a lower price point. The service was polite and efficient, but I felt the staff were more focused on maintaining a luxury image than creating a welcoming dining experience. It was all very professional, yet I missed a genuine sense of hospitality. For me, it felt a bit more like dining in a design hotel rather than enjoying a relaxed meal by the sea. Prices were on the higher end, which would have been fine if the experience had matched the expectation. Unfortunately, I left feeling that the meal was beautiful to look at, but emotionally flat — a bit like the setting itself: stunning, but lacking warmth. Overall, it’s a lovely place to visit once for the view, but not somewhere I’d return for the food alone. It’s perfect for those who value presentation and aesthetics above all else, but personally, I prefer restaurants with a bit more soul, flavor, and local charm.

If you are looking for a pool brunch with great view, here is the answer. Sashimi and Lobsters are fresh and many foods look great, unfortunately I could eat just a bit 😆 However, steak sauce is quite disappoint for me that the taste if ketchup that mixed for a sauce too strong 🥹 Staffs all have great Service mind. Come back for sure if I have time 😁

Amazing experience! We started our journey with a fun golf cart trip to the restaurant and when we get there the view was incredible! The whole restaurant is beautiful all cover in white, service was simply perfect and the food was great! One of the best customer service experience that I’ve ever had. I’ve been working in the hospitality industry for more than 5 years and I really appreciate this kind of service because I know how hard it is to be that attentive to a table, even the GM approached to our table to ask how everything was going. Simply perfect! 10/10

The service was spectacular and the food very flavorful. The view during sunset is amazing and in the evening the light of the pool makes a great environment. The wine list is not the best but the food is very good. If you come with your car, they will park for you and take you to the restaurant with a small golf car. I definitely recommend the place.

Kata Rocks is tailor made for perfect photos, even in the rain. The lighting, lines and aesthetics are done with a photographer’s eye. And it doesn’t hurt that the cuisine at least matches the atmosphere. Very tasty, sophisticated and beautifully presented. And the staff is first rate too. The hotel may be pricey and the luster may be a little dimmer than when it first opened, but the Clubhouse restaurant doesn’t disappoint. This is another level of cuisine that what you’ll find elsewhere. And did I mention that the staff is super friendly and accommodating? They’ll take you by buggy back to the main road too. Well worth the visit.

My 2nd time here💖 Kata Rocks is my favorite hotel in Phuket. Always great service and wonderful experience here.

Great spot for fun, food or drinks across road from Kata Beach with fantastic water views & people watching. I just had the Mango Smoothie on this visit & it was really good. They have a happy hour later in the day - would be a great place for a cold beer while you enjoy the ocean breeze. I’ll be back!

Surprisingly we came here many times! Usually it’s not type of places I go to. But here firstly you can try surf and guys are really nice and will teach you everything. Secondly draught beer at good price and pizza is really GOOD (and I’m Italian). As an addition the music selection is also great and place is really clean. I give 10/5 stars!!

Our 6 year old daughter loved it. The staff were friendly and guided her during the session. She struggled a bit with the standing board due to her age, so the staff let her opt for the body board - which she much preferred.

The atmosphere is fun and relaxed.Very friendly staff. The instructors are all very patient. Thanks all of you including the staff in the restaurant and bar too. Today is the second time for me trying this great sport. Won't be the last . The people who come and sit and eat and drink and enjoy watching the riders seem to have a good time.

This is a must for Puket. Highly recomended. Had some drinks only. Just to close to the beach this indoor surfing its a stunning experience

Having a blast here. The place was very well maintained. They even have a photographer to help you with your photos. Food choices were great, from western to local Thai cuisine. A perfect place for a family to hangout. For the young and adventurous, go for the flowrider while the chill ones can sit back and relax with refreshing drinks while watching the kids surf.

Amazing place for a drink or to learn surfing, right on Kata beach

My instructor Eeee (that’s his name haha) was incredible, was my first time surfing and he makes me feel so calm on the waves, he help me a lot and explain me everything. Was a really nice experience. Also they provide you surfing clothes in case you need and they take nice photos of yourself while surfing

Came to this surf school for a couple of days with my son. We are very happy with them. Nice and kind staff, professional instructor and pleasant atmosphere. Thank you so much guys

We did diving with Fabien in Racha island. He is a great instructor, explained everything in a professional and friendly way. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience. The instructors will help you all the way, esp if you’re a beginner. Thanks for the photos and the memories! Might come back again next week haha.

Had such a fun and amazing time w our two instructors, best and nai. They were super patient w us and were super engaging and fun! Got some battle scars but it’s all worth it.

We had two lessons with the school and booked another one tomorrow. The instructors are very friendly and highly professional. They gave us a constructive feedback and tips on how to improve. Also the professional photos and videos are worth it and a great memory. Thank you! We will be back :)

I had such an amazing time in Phuket specially thanks to this club 😍 I took both surfing and scuba diving classes. Instructors are professional and fun 😅 I highly recommend this club both for surfing and diving. I’m now a certified open water diver yaaaay 🥳🥳🥳 Thanks Fabien 🫶🏽

May 16th - Contracted severe food poisoning due to, what I believe was old, decayed pork meat ribs. The first set of ribs tasted weird, but was slothered with a strange overpowering bbq sauce. The second set had a different taste, but totally dried out as can be probably seen in picture. The chicken was totally overcooked and dry and was certainly not edible, maybe stale. The fries were tasty, but the best was their salad. Not worth the promo price! And my birthday lunch became a nightmarish memory. I can't recommend this venue. I question their food safety protocols and save handing.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ (4/5) Two Chefs Kata Beach offers a lively dining experience just a short stroll from the beach. The atmosphere is casual and fun, often accompanied by live music that adds to the upbeat vibe – perfect for a relaxed evening out. The menu is impressively broad, combining Thai classics with international comfort food like burgers, steaks, and pasta. We tried both Thai and Western dishes, and while the Thai food was flavorful and authentic, some of the international dishes (like the pizza) could have been a bit fresher. Still, everything was well-presented and the portions were generous. The service was friendly and attentive, with staff speaking good English and always ready to help with recommendations. Prices are a little above local spots, but fair for the quality and location. Overall, a great place to enjoy good food and live entertainment in Kata Beach. Especially nice if you’re looking for a mix of Thai cuisine and Western favorites.

The pepper steaks we had were perfect! Cooked to perfection & melt in your mouth flavours. Excellent service from all waiting staff. Highly recommended. The food is super in this restaurant as I didn’t have the time even to take pictures of the main dish. No doubt to try it. Had a wonderful experienced dining there. My wife bought me to the restaurant for my birthday celebration on 7th Feb and was surprised by the friendly and wonderful staff singing the birthday songs to us. Even better, the celebrations were accompanied by the delicious chocolate brownies and ice cream on the house. The experience and memories will always remain in our hearts!

Visited on my second night arriving in Kata... AMAZING Birria Tacos and definitely recommend it! Tasted fresh and authentic! Also try the Nacho Chips with Salsa and Guacamole as a starter. Drinks menu is extensive and beer is always cold! Owner is very polite and immediately acted when i raised an issue on my other night there. Very accommodating! Live music is pleasant backdrop to a good drink and tasty food! The breakfast is also worth going for. Convenient location!

We really enjoyed our meal here. The staff are so nice and friendly. They were happy to make us mocktails. It gets busy so book or get here early.

The restaurant was nicely decorated in casual chic and very much in line with the vibes of the area Food was surprisingly good. We ordered the BBQ ribs all you can eat and the beef ragu and pad thai prawn to be shared with our party of 4 and everyone had a full stomach after A great place to start of a night of fun!

Everything was perfect from the food (highly recommend the ones we tried Wood plank steak, and beef ragu). Strong flavours just as we like it and very very tasty! Ordered the frozen Strawberry Daiquiri, perfect compliment to our meal! There was a very talent live band as well. Staff were friendly and checked in on us regularly. Perfect spot for dinner, a must visit.

This is one of restaurants that you should visit. It is a very nice restaurant and cafe with so beautiful views of the Adaman sea. They have various choices of seafood and Thai local foods. The food price is reasonable and tourism price. I recommend you to stop at here for a short time. The staff are so friendly and kind. Their service is impressive and fast.

Phenomenal! Cannot recommend enough, for me the meal I just had there was perfect. Service was spot on, food was lovely and the setting is amazing! The Bob Marley theme stops at the music and decor unfortunately but there's a bar across the road and up a hill you can blaze afterwards. Perfect

Nice hilltop located at south of kata beach. Too bad, i came not only for hilltop sunset but reggae. No music at all. Not even thai. Where is my Bab Marley?! Ok, here is the following story, i saw the staffs uniform with Bob Marley head at the back. I couldn't resist and ask, why no reggae music? Do they sell the staff uniform?? The answer is yes! They immediately turned on the music & showed me all colours for Polo & T shirt for 350 baht. Well, i grabbed myself one! Best shopping experience ever!

Everything was perfect! The view was beautiful, the food delicious, and the service absolutely top-notch. Highly recommend this restaurant

Local food really great delicious Staff friendly Beautiful sea view

Wonderful view and amazing staff I really recommend this place and yeah the food is amazing

Got here for lunch. Was quite empty. View was awesome. Food reasonably priced and nice. Worth a visit.

This is close to Wat Chalong Temple so you can do both in an afternoon. There were limited species of birds. Mostly hornbills, parrots,peacocks and chickens. There are a few farm animals that children can buy food to feed them for 50 baht. This is not appropriate for people with mobility issues because there’s a steep hill to get to the bird show. We skipped the bird show. The souvenir shop is similar to a charity shop in the states. They don’t carry items like mementos of the park but a mishmash of unrelated things. The bird show is part of the admission price. It would be appropriate for small children but the park could do with a serious upgrade.

Absolutely not worth the money. We paid 1,500 baht and were done in 10 minutes. They charged full price for a child, and inside, the only animals were chickens, roosters, two crocodiles, an ostrich, and a few toucans—nothing remotely exotic. It was a pitiful experience. The show was loud and chaotic—blaring techno music like a nightclub, with a host shouting over it. It felt extremely stressful for the birds, who seemed to perform only for food. The cages were tiny, poorly maintained, and the smell was unbearable in places. What bothered us most was the constant upselling—pay for food, pay to feed crocodiles, pay for a photo. Even during the show, kids were asked to hold up 100 baht so a bird could "steal" it. Everything felt like a money grab. The only positives were the friendly staff and nice surroundings, but that doesn't justify the high price.

budget-friendly option for a few hours of fun, especially for families. It's not huge, but it's well-maintained and offers a close-up look at many beautiful species. ​Tip: Plan Your Visit Around the Bird Show! ​The absolute highlight is the Bird Show.😸😸😁😁

It's a beautiful place. There are many different birds, an entertaining show, and a petting zoo. You should definitely buy animal food there—it's so much fun to feed the animals. In the park, you can feed various goats, an ostrich, and different parrots—the animals come right up to you. Be sure to see the show. You can also take a photo with the big parrots for 100 baht, but we took tons of pictures while feeding the animals, which was even more fun for us. It's an unforgettable experience. Don't hesitate to spend 100 baht on food for the animals—they are wonderful.

Here’s a polished review for Phuket Bird Park (200+ words) written in a natural, human style: ⸻ Visiting Phuket Bird Park was one of the most memorable experiences during my time in Thailand. Nestled in a lush, tropical environment, the park offers a perfect blend of entertainment, education, and relaxation. From the moment you walk in, you are surrounded by the sounds of nature—colorful parrots calling out, exotic birds fluttering above, and the peaceful setting of well-maintained gardens and shaded walkways. The highlight for me was the bird show, where beautifully trained macaws, hornbills, and eagles showcased their intelligence and skills. The trainers clearly have a strong bond with the birds, and the performances were both fun and impressive, especially when the parrots solved puzzles or flew gracefully over the audience. It was an exciting experience not only for children but also for adults who appreciate the beauty and intelligence of these creatures. What I also appreciated was the opportunity to get close to the birds. You can take photos with parrots perched on your arm or shoulder, making it a truly interactive visit. The park staff were friendly, helpful, and made sure visitors were comfortable and safe around the animals. Overall, Phuket Bird Park is more than just an attraction—it is a celebration of nature and wildlife. It’s a wonderful place for families, couples, or solo travelers who want to experience something unique and unforgettable in Phuket. I would highly recommend it for anyone looking to add a touch of adventure and color to their trip.

Check the show times before coming as you could easily miss it and wait a while. There's extra opportunities to take pictures and feed the birds which are worth it.

I liked this place. There weren't many species of birds there, but there were also rabbits and goats. And we saw a cute show with parrots and otters

Great atmosphere with good music. We got a table as soon as we got there. The food was awesome with good flavours and presentation on the plate. But there is always room for improvement to keep the restaurant's standards high and to keep attractIng customers. The restaurant is really nicely decorated and has a wide variety of food to choose from. Our waiter Mr Sut was fast and effective. Please keep it up, we will come back. Thanks you Vincent and Marielle.

The menu is large, but the food was delicious. I stuck with traditional thai food, pad see ew and pad Kra Pao. Both very enjoyable. My friend got one of their sandwiches and the bread and flavor were amazing as well. The portions are generous. Drinks were good (and strong). Everything was fair priced and our server Siam was a doll! He even gave us complimentary coconut cookies that were perfectly sweet and delicious. The atmosphere is relaxed and the restaurant is decorated beautifully. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is by Kata beach!

We had wonderful dining experiences here, coming multiple times throughout our trip. it has a little bit of everything and all great portions and taste really good. Good price, very reasonable. Rose was amazing and very hardworking. We hope to see a location in Bangkok soon!

We went here many times for breakfast and lunch ! The food was sooo good, also the pizza’s. For the breakfast, Phisuth offered us special halal thaï food with rice and vegetables, macaroni and cheese, fruits and fresh water with ice because we were Muslims and we didn’t now if the buffet was halal or not. It was so generous that we couldn’t eat it all even tho we were 2. Thank you so much Phisuth, it was really nice to meet you and your food was really good ! We recommend you this restaurant at 100%. The food is good, the restaurant is clean and the personnel is kind (especially Phisut) 😁🇹🇭

Started off with the Chicken Snow Onion which was an appetizer but somehow was 3x as big as my main LOL I was shocked! Believe it or not there is fried chicken underneath what looks like two whole onions. The chicken was fried well though and honestly the onions and the sauce were pretty good with the chicken too. I left like half the onions on the plate tho bc that amount was crazyyyy. For the main I got the Thai BBQ Pork Burger on a Croissant Bun which was actually phenomenal. The meat was super tender and juicy, the BBQ flavor was tangy and sweet, the coleslaw was refreshing, and the crispy croissant bun really tied it together. The fries were too soft for my liking tho and couldve been better. To drink I had a Thai Tea Slushy which was FIREEEE. Need this every day for the rest of my life please.

Our server was Sai and she did a fantastic job tending to us and made us feel like home. The food was delicious. I recommend the 5 cheese pizza and the blueberry smoothie. We had an excellent time at Kiri and I'd definitely come back here during my next visit

Visited for dinner and was left underwhelmed. The menu is surprisingly extensive, covering multiple cuisines with an overwhelming number of items—which raised questions about whether dishes are made fresh or simply reheated frozen ready meals. The service was disappointingly slow. We waited a considerable time just to place our order, then waited even longer for our food to arrive. During our visit, we noticed several customers simply giving up and leaving due to the wait times. I ordered the tempeh burger, which unfortunately was quite bland and lacking in flavour. The fries tasted like standard frozen chips with little seasoning. The most frustrating aspect? A 5% service charge is automatically added to the bill despite their poor service quality. The one positive note, the food is safely prepared and edible, which does count for something in these parts. However, given the slow service, mediocre food quality, and the added service charge, I can't recommend KIRI.

On the beach, there is a small but very spacious park, which will be interesting and useful for both adults and children, - here are wonderfully combined: sports simulators, playground with slides and swings, very convenient and comfortable gazebos with benches, - where you can relax from the heat and refresh yourself! On the territory of the park is a nice, soft lawn, a small number of tall palm trees, and it is located on one of the most popular beaches of Phuket - Kata. In the evening, after the heat subsides, a large number of Thais and foreigners go jogging and other active sports here. The clean, well-maintained park is a good place to come here in the evening after the heat has died down and spend time with your kids or friends doing some exercise!

Kata beach community park is a great place for families with kids who want to enjoy outdoor activities. The outdoor exercise playground and Zumba dance classes offer a fun way to stay active and healthy. The park's location near the beach also provides a beautiful view of the sunset, making it a perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day.

Absolutely beautiful beach and amazing resort in general! Walking distance from hotel!

Simple park beside the beach, good for kids to play. There is zumba session in the evening. Lovely place no much foreign beachgoers....

Perfect Gym Park for a morning workout. Jogging track and a full suite of fixed workout equipment. Some early evenings also have Zumba in park open to everyone.

A peaceful green space right next to Kata Beach, Kata Beach Community Park is ideal for a short walk, relaxation, or enjoying sea views away from the main crowd. The park has a few benches, trees providing shade, and open areas where locals often gather in the evenings. It’s also a good spot for watching the sunset without standing directly on the sand. Clean and calm, it adds a nice local touch to the busy beachside area. Pros: Quiet and relaxing. Shady seating areas. Nice sunset view. Cons: Limited facilities. Small in size. Can get a bit crowded during evenings.

This is a beautiful beach but limited places to swim. Most of the beach is taken up by private hotels and exclusive restaurants. There is a playground, public shower, public restrooms, a sand bocce ball and life-sized chess board and beautifully kept grounds. We didn't stay and I didn't take photos.

It’s very looks simple but the food, the place are perfect! The food they serve is looks like good for 2 person hahaha. That’s amazing. Big bonus for foreigner like us that they can speak English like you can communicated to them properly. 😍🍀👌 Amazing.

This restaurant exceeded my expectations! Every dish was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Truly one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a while.

Waited so long for the chicken steak, not really nice the chicken too tough an the bbq sauce taste sour. But the other food was nice though. Have nice view to take photo nearby too with view of big buddha.

A nice restaurant with a scenic view that’s about a 10 minute walk from the Big Buddha. Personally felt that the food was a tad too salty, especially the tom yum noodles. The prawns and squid in the pad see ew were very fresh though. The overall ambience was nice too.

Wonderful experience!! View was breathtaking 😍, food taste was amazing, food serving is excellent. everything was on point! Would definitely recommend this restaurant as I think i had my best food and view in Thailand at this restaurant. Prices are reasonable.

We had no high expectations but we are stunned. We totally loved the place. The best food we had in Thailand so far we are here for 7 days now.. amazing views, amazing service, and the food!!! Don't miss it!! Unfortunately we don't have many pictures of the food we were hungry :-)

Drinks were very affordable (20 baht for canned drinks, 10 baht for water) View was amazing, music was good, and the owner was really friendly. Would definitely recommend as a stop on the trail up to big Buddha or as a place to relax and enjoy the view in the afternoon

In august we had a fantastic stay at Club Med in Phuket. We stayed in the newly opened family zone, which is a major upgrade. Even though construction work is going on in other parts of the resort, we never really noticed it. Other parts of the resort have been upgraded and you can really see that Club Med are investing in their new concept and it shows, facilities are top-notch. The new family zone is great for families on vacation, rooms are really designed with kids in mind and they will love the splash-park. The staff was absolutely amazing and did their utmost to make our stay great. I was able to talk to the chef de village on a couple of occasions and I found him very receptive of feedback on the resort as I had a few things that I felt could improve the place. (minor feedback items). The new dining area is great and also the staff was amazing. Our 5 year old son made friends with the head of F&B and he even showed up to wave us goodby at 07:00 on our departure day which was an amazing gesture and made our stay even better. On the point of the new dining area, the food was fantastic, different local cuisines and all of it was well prepared. I still think Club Med should upgrade their standard wine (they always go for the sweet Chardonay, I would love to see that they go for a good dry white wine, but that's personal preference). Our son did not have the best time at kids club, but that could have been because of a language barrier. I felt the groups maybe were a bit to big, but that is just a personal preference and maybe we are used to club med in the low season when there are less kids. On the other hand our 8 month old daughter had a great time at the petit club and we always picked her up with a smile and the staff kept us updated throughout the day. All in all, a fantastic vacation and would recommend to anyone going to Phuket.

Unforgettable Experience at Club Med Phuket: A Heartfelt Thank You to All the Amazing GOs! Club Med’s unique concept truly shines through in Phuket, offering guests the rare opportunity to form meaningful connections with the staff, known as the GOs (Gentils Organisateurs). From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by a wonderful team from all corners of the world— Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Korea, Taiwan, Europe and beyond. Their warmth and hospitality made our stay unforgettable. A Big Thank You to the GOs: * Ari (Yoga Instructor) – Ari’s yoga sessions were an absolute highlight of our day His classes, which ran daily at 8 AM, were accessible to all levels, from beginners to seasoned yogis. The 3 PM intermediate sessions, especially the Vinyasa and Ashtanga styles, were perfect for those looking for a deeper challenge. Not to mention, the Aqua Yoga in the zen pool and the Sound Healing sessions were incredibly popular—definitely a must-try! performances to the stage. A special mention to Boy Boy for the incredible costumes that added to the magic of the shows! * Jamal, Chloe, Kimmy, Adib, and Golf (Trapeze Team) – These talented individuals made the trapeze performances a thrilling part of the entertainment. Led by Jeremie, the team delivered incredible shows, which quickly became one of the highlights of our stay. Whether you’re a spectator or a participant, their energy and passion are contagious! * Bimo (Archery) – Bimo’s passion for archery was evident from the moment we met him. He’s an excellent instructor who made the experience both fun and safe for everyone, regardless of skill level. * Azizul (Restaurant ) – A big thank you to Azizul for his personalised service, especially in accommodating our family’s accessibility needs. His attention to detail ensured our dining experience was always smooth and enjoyable. * Owen (Restaurant)– We were thrilled to see Owen again, having met him during our stay at Club Med Bintan. His friendly personality and exceptional service. * Aoy (Housekeeping Manager) – Aoy and her team, especially Rosie, kept our room spotless throughout our stay. They were always prompt and accommodating whenever we had a request. * Rachel (Bar Staff) – It was lovely to catch up with Rachel again, having met her in Bali at Christmas. Her friendly nature and excellent service made her a joy to interact with every time we visited the bar. * Prince (Audio-Visual) – Behind the scenes, Prince worked his magic to ensure that the resort’s audiovisual systems were top-notch. His efforts helped create seamless experiences for both entertainment and events. * Kookai, Aun, Kira, Saipan, Sophie, Chloe, Ari & Edmund (Dining Companions & Friends) – Thanks to these wonderful individuals, our meals were even more enjoyable. It was a pleasure to share meals, stories, and laughter with such a friendly and engaging group Resort Highlights: * Facilities & Amenities: The resort has recently undergone a series of upgrades, and we noticed improvements in almost every public area—new toilets, a renovated dining room, and general enhancements to the spaces. Despite a bit of refurbishment in one area, it was minimal and didn’t affect the overall experience. * Hygiene: We were very impressed with the resort’s commitment to hygiene. All employees are tested every two weeks, and there are hand sanitizers everywhere. It’s reassuring to see such dedication to guest safety. Final Thoughts: We can’t recommend Club Med Phuket enough! The amazing GOs—many of whom are university graduates choosing hospitality as a career—are the heart and soul of the resort. Their genuine enthusiasm, dedication, and warmth made all the difference, and it’s clear that they take pride in creating memorable experiences for guests.

We had a wonderful stay at Club Med Phuket and wanted to especially recognize Tata and Azizul for their amazing hospitality. Tata was so sweet and kind — she went out of her way to engage with our little boy at the water park every day, always greeting him with a big smile and genuine warmth. Her care and friendliness made his days extra fun and memorable. Azizul provided outstanding service throughout our stay. He was incredibly thoughtful and attentive — always checking in to make sure we were comfortable and going above and beyond to make things easy for us. His professionalism and kindness truly stood out. Both of them made our experience feel very personal and special. Thank you, Tata and Azizul, for making our holiday unforgettable!

We had an amazing experience at Club Med Phuket! A big thank you to Jina, the Meeting and Events Manager, for her outstanding service and warm hospitality. She took such great care of our group throughout our stay, always making sure everything went smoothly and attending to all our needs with a bright smile every day, truly making our trip memorable! Special thanks as well to Dylan, the Welcome and Service Manager, for his warm welcome and excellent hospitality. He made us feel right at home from the start and gave us a wonderful room and resort tour that helped us get familiar with everything. And of course, a heartfelt thank you to Chef Roy for conducting such a fun and engaging cooking class! We loved learning how to make Tom Yam Goong under his patient guidance, it was a delicious highlight of our trip! Thank you to the entire Club Med Phuket team for the wonderful experience, we can’t wait to come back again! 🌴✨

I had a very good and memorable first experience in Club Med. The staff was very professional and very accommodating. Special mention to Edmund, Jeffrey and Emilio who made the overall experience so much better. Edmund provided us with excellent service at the Chuda restaurant and was very detailed, he found and remembered alot of details I never expected. As for Jeffrey, after a conversation about cooking salmon, he actually prepared a trio of salmon dishes that made the whole trip extra memorable. And lastly, Emilio made our last night at Club Med Phuket extra memorable with his stories. Thanks again to all the staff for making this an extra special trip for my wife and I.

I stayed at the resort with my mother from October 14 to 17. We arrived in Phuket late in the evening, and Dori G.O. kindly welcomed us, explained the resort in detail, and guided us all the way to our room. The room was very clean and had twin beds, so we rested comfortably. One thing that could be improved was housekeeping. After spending the first night, I expected the room to be cleaned in the morning, but when we came back around 1 p.m. after activities, it hadn’t been done yet. I requested cleaning at 2 p.m., but the shower drain wasn’t working well, which caused a bit of inconvenience. The next day, I mentioned this to the reception, and Dori G.O. followed up attentively — everything was resolved smoothly after that. Aside from that, the cleanliness was excellent throughout our stay. The restaurant food was delicious and offered a wide variety of dishes — especially the fresh fruits, which we really enjoyed. Gita G.O. walked around the dining area and kindly checked in with guests, which left a very good impression. Her attentiveness and effort to make guests feel cared for were memorable. At the main bar, the staff were very friendly. My mother especially loved the non-alcoholic mojito (without syrup) and ordered it every day — she said she’d miss it once we got back home! The facilities and activities were excellent. We enjoyed so many things that time just flew by, and the evening shows were entertaining and fun to watch. Heenie G.O., always greeted us warmly whenever she saw us, and my mother really liked her kind approach. She once asked if she could join us for a meal, and thanks to that, my mother and I had a very pleasant and friendly dining time — it became one of our favorite memories from the trip. When we were leaving, everyone seemed busy, and I felt a bit sad thinking we might not get to say goodbye — but Jina G.O., was waiting for us to see us off. That thoughtful gesture truly touched me and made our departure feel warm and special. It was a short stay, but we created such wonderful memories. I’m really grateful for their kindness and hospitality. I’d like to thank Dori, Heenie, Jina, and Gita G.O.s for making our stay so enjoyable and for sharing their warmth with us.

One of the best and relaxing holidays we had in the last few years. Top notch quality of service, staff, activities and many more offerings that Clubmed offered us during our stay for 6-days during November 2025. The staff is super energetic, helpful and always smiling. The food menu they served during all 6-days never repeated. Great choice chefs and over all food menu for all types for dietary requirements. We enjoyed a lot of activities and the late night parties. Our child enjoyed the kids club a lot bringing a lot of memories back home. We would definitely like to visit again.

A beautiful temple complex with many interesting buildings, located in a very green area of ​​the island. The temple was built in 1832, after which many buildings were: rebuilt, repaired and completed. There are many buildings, a third of which can be visited, for example: a beautiful vihara, where mantra readings take place - there are a large number of Buddha statues, portraits of the royal family and many other interesting things - but you cannot visit the main bot, the doors to it will be closed, but you can take beautiful photos on its territory. For lovers of mysterious discoveries, there is a separate building on a mountain in the jungle, where beautiful statues are behind glass doors. Here you can take beautiful, mysterious photos that no one else will have. Full information with video and easy navigation - in the 👉 PHUKETON application

A non-touristy small Chinese temple easily accessible from Kata beach. Very beautiful details! Free to enter. TAKE YOUR SHOES OFF before coming up the stairs to the temple (there’s a picture sign but no worded sign)

Peaceful place.....quiet temple...Thanks

Lovely temple, Buddha is great!

Was closed when I got there unfortunately. But nice little temple.

Not a tourist destination, you can come in for blessing a good wish with the holy image respected among local people in the area. Not bad architecture for the temple.

The Monks and Temple staff were Brilliant giving an old Friend a Good send-off The Funeral service was Excellent in Beautiful surroundings

Now Pearl Bar very nice Location

I come here regularly for a cold Guiness. A lively modern sports bar with a good view of the street traffic. Friendly staff and service. The food is expensive for what you get. I had possibly the world's smallest plate of spaghetti made with canned supermarket sauce. More of an appetizer than a meal. Great for drinks, not so great for food.

I recommend everything, very tasty! Real Turkish cuisine! Attentive staff, manager and a very beautiful owner 🙏🏾

Great bar on your Kata trip. Games , big Tv's, friendly staff... give it a try and challange one of the employees for a game of pool😋 Owners are always there and makes sure things run smooth. We enjoyed it a lot for 10 days in a row...

Took forever to get the menus, that should've been the first red flag as then it took over an hour to get our food and a good 20 min to get orange juice. Do not recommend

Widest selection of drinks I've seen so far in Thailand good prices have a couple very well kept pool tables and lots of TVs so you can watch any sports you want lots of other fun games at the tables to play the owner Ani is very sweet and welcoming would come back to Phuket just to come here

Ani bar is one of a kind. If you need music you have. If you need sport they have. If you like happy hour drinks they have. So all in all fantastic

Absolutely gorgeous beautiful place the room staff couldn’t do enough for you, loved the variety of food and cocktail hour on sunset was the best, please tip the room staff they work so hard for such little money and are so humble and kind hearted❤️

Attended a wedding here with friends. Excellent scenic backdrop for a tropical destination wedding. The setup is good, however the enclosed roof is not vented so expect the evening to be a bit warm. Had the western style seafood meal and was somewhat dissapointed. Soup was served with an uncraked crab claw which was messy for the guests who decided to eat it. Broth was strongly seafood flavoured and served too cold. Canned vegetables were mixed with lobster ruining the main dish. All in all a great location, however be careful in selecting menu options.

Can't complain. Nice view, clean surrounds, friendly staff.

Are company had a 3 day course here and the food was fantastic 3 course meal I can see why this is so perfect for weddings and the resort is massive right on the beach so nice ☀️👫👍

As we were staying in the hotel we observed many weddings: it was very nice, and the organization seemed perfect.

One of the best weddings I have ever attended, great location, food and service

Great service. Food was great and a beautiful view.

(Translated by Google) Very good service (Original) บริการดีมากค่ะ

Karon Beach is a popular destination on the west coast of Phuket, Thailand, known for its long stretch of soft, white sand and clear turquoise waters. It is the second-longest beach in the province and is popular with families and couples for its more relaxed atmosphere compared to nearby Patong Beach. The beach offers a mix of relaxation and activities like sunbathing, swimming, and various watersports.

Nice beach! Cool water. 1hr Massages on beach were 500baht (about $15.50) many vendors lining the shore & beach chairs available. The ocean floor is very uneven with drop offs and sand bars throughout so be careful.

I’ve just started exploring the local beaches, and Karon Beach is by far my favorite one in the area — especially after visiting Kata Beach, which was overcrowded and quite dirty. Karon feels completely different: the sand is firm and not slippery, which makes it perfect for running or walking along the shore. The beach is wide, flat, and peaceful in the morning, with way fewer people and noticeably less trash. There’s also a nice running path and a small park area nearby, which makes the whole experience even better. Overall, it’s a clean, calm, and enjoyable beach — highly recommended if you want to move a bit, relax, or just take in a nice morning run by the sea.

It’s a good beach, family friendly. A bit wavy, which is good if you are in the mood to fight with the nature. Renting 2 benches and an umbrella for the shadow for the whole day, costs us 200 B. Overall, we enjoyed it. The beach is very long. You can find some bars in the south, which are recommended to visit on a sunset. Also, if you stay at the south part during the night, you will have an opportunity to sea fire show

Karon is one of the most breathtaking beaches in Phuket, radiating serenity even in peak season. Its tranquil ambiance, unmarred by bars and numerous food stalls, renders it a haven for families with kids. Water sports on the beach further amplify its allure. And last but not least, the sunset from Karon Beach is just phenomenal.

I really enjoyed my time at Karon Beach. The place is clean and peaceful, perfect for spending hours by the sea. I even had the chance to ride the parasail, which was an amazing experience. The waves are beautiful and calming, and it’s a great spot to do yoga and meditation without any disturbance. Highly recommend for both relaxation and adventure

Clean water and sands. Less crowded than any beach you may wish to visit in Phuket. Few food stalls and activities. The beach is huge and the waves are beautiful.

Windmill Viewpoint in Phuket is truly one of the best hidden gems on the island. Unlike the more crowded Karon Viewpoint, this place feels underrated and far less touristy, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. The view here is absolutely stunning – you get a perfect angle of the turquoise sea, the beach, and the surrounding hills, all blending into a breathtaking backdrop. What makes Windmill Viewpoint special is how clear and expansive the scenery is. It’s an ideal spot if you’re looking to take amazing photos, as the natural light, the sea view, and the quiet atmosphere all combine to create picture-perfect moments. Whether you’re a photography enthusiast or just someone who loves capturing memories, this viewpoint will not disappoint. The area itself is peaceful and not too commercialized, so you can actually take your time to relax and soak in the view without rushing. It’s also a great place to sit for a while and simply enjoy the calmness and beauty of Phuket’s coastline. Overall, Windmill Viewpoint is an excellent spot that deserves more recognition. If you want a clear, beautiful view of the sea with a fantastic backdrop for photos, this is definitely the place to go.

Stunning view of Ya Nui and Nai Han beach. There is small building area that keep you from the sun. The way up to view point is quite steep but easy to drive up. Small car park , around 10 cars.

“Stunning views with iconic windmills, perfect for sunrise, sunset, and amazing photos. A peaceful spot to enjoy nature and capture unforgettable memories.”

Stunning view of the beaches and island below. There’s a small stall if you need a light snack or refreshments. Free parking for motorbikes (not sure about other vehicles). There’s a small sheltered space at the top too.

Nice view, sunset on your right side. Very crowded spot for both car and people. 5 stars for view and free of charge.

This is another one of my favourite spots to watch the sunset. It’s such a magical experience. 🌅✨

This is a lookout -many parasails can be seen here in a windy day. Very beautiful views to the beaches below.. but

I visited this Starbucks almost every day during my month living in the Karon area, and it quickly became one of my favorite spots. The coffee is excellent - always consistent and freshly made. There’s plenty of space both for work and for relaxing, and the cool air inside is a perfect escape from the hot weather outside. The staff are wonderful - very friendly, polite, and welcoming. Truly great people. Highly recommend this place to anyone in the area!

A great location Starbucks near hotels, the beach and off one of the main roads near everything. The service is very friendly, it has all of the Thailand mugs merchandise and amazing air conditioning! Of course wifi is here too and there is an indoor and outdoor section. I have been very pleased with the Starbucks service and quality of drinks in Thailand and this location did not disappoint me!

Cappuccino is good. Air cond is great. Nothing more))))

I’ve visited Starbucks in the evening. I’d like to say, that the place is very beautiful and has lots of amazing drawings on the walls 🔥 The food and drinks were amazingly tasty 👍

I’ve been here for 3 times, but during my 2nd time, the New york cheese cake i’ve ordered is almost getting off. Please be careful

I went for the Wi-Fi, but you might want to stay for the comfort and familiarity of a good old fashioned US-bred coffee company while you’re in Phuket. It was certainly quiet, clean, and served up all the usuals. It was a welcome reprieve for my trip and a needed workspace away from home.

Great escape from the heat😅 Loving the seating set up, cool a/c and great staff. There is a reserved parking area at the back and you walk down a little , there is a door at the back.

On the Rock Restaurant is nestled at the end of Karon Beach. It provides magnificent views of the beach and its surrounds. The atmosphere is very relaxing, and somewhat intimate after sunset. The food is absolutely delicious and they have some nice wines to pair with the various dishes on the menu. The staff are friendly, professional and very efficient. An absolute must when visiting Karon Beach.

The restaurant has good views of the sea and the beach... Food wasn't that great... Only good part was the ice cream. It also has direct access to the beach, in case you like to take walks post dinner. Service was very good any fast. Courteous staff.

"On The Rock Restaurant" boasts delicious food and stunning views of Karon Beach. Set against a backdrop of picturesque mountains, beautiful beaches and crystal-clear waters, it creates the perfect setting for a memorable dining experience.

The restaurant turned out to be such a disappointment. The place, the design, the atmosphere and the view were spectacular. The staff and service were excellent But the food was a let down. We ordered fried crab Rangoons which had an overly fishy crabby smell, I couldn’t go through it, but my husband enjoyed it. The pineapple fried rice, was tasteless & had barely any pineapple in it. The crab curry was not good either, it lacked good taste & was too messy for a restaurant of this sort. The pineapple freeze (drink) was okay, I wished it was less sweet but that’s a personal preference. Honestly not worth 1600 Baht that we paid. I wouldn’t pay more than 200 baht for the food quality.

Stunning views, great service and delicious food! We originally stopped in only for a drink as we weren't hungry and staff were super gracious about this removing our cutlery etc! The cocktails were awesome and ultimately seeing all the food come out we changed our minds again the staff were gracious and gave us placemats cutlery etc without complaint. We settled on a green curry and asked for it to be extra spicy and they delivered and delivered well! Great amount of coconut cream and not watered down like some places Shame we weren't hungry because I can't wait to go back and try more dishes! The views are simply beautiful too! We

Food was great. Staff was well behaved and accommodating. But man the view is unbelievable. One of the best view I’ve ever enjoyed in a restaurant. Must visit if you are in the west coast of Phuket.

Our second visit here. Great restaurant and amazing views. Food was delicious and service impeccable. Highly recommend getting the ribeye steak!

A huge shoutout to the animators Tim and Balpai at our hotel in Phuket. They were the highlight of our stay! Their energy is limitless, and they work tirelessly to ensure everyone has a great time. The activities (aqua aerobics, darts, evening shows) were always fun and well-organized. They are fantastic with both children and adults, always wearing a smile and creating a friendly, happy atmosphere. We highly recommend this hotel just for them!

Our kids loved the Playorama! Great for kids to burn off their energy and keep them occupied. A lot of cool areas in the 2 levels like ball pit, slides, netting to climb, swing and trampoline. All soft and padded and new equipment. Staff were great, especially Tim in welcoming kids in every time.

Tim and the other staff have been absolutely wonderful! My daughter has had the most magical experience with everyone. Thank you for making her smile and feel safe every day!

The kids club staff were amazing. Very friendly and hospitable. Tim, Kratae and the rest of the team are simply the best. They went above and beyond for my sons birthday and cannot thank them enough!

Our daughter Milly enjoyed going to the playroom every day of our vacation! I think that was the top of her day:) Everyone were so kind to her, very thoughtful and taking such a good care if her. She loved spending her time with Rose and with Tim. They were very lovely and considerate.

My kids loved the play area and we we were very happy with how safe and fun it was. Ammie and Ging were so friendly and attentive every time we visited the play area. We also appreciated how they kept looking after our kids to make sure they were playing safely.

It means so much to me that you're looking after my child, thaks Staff BP and Kratae
