Catch Beach Club
expensive
Restaurant
Beach club
Located on the west coast of Bang Tao Beach, Catch Beach Club is a popular destination for locals and tourists in Phuket. It offers an Andaman beachfront experience with an infinity pool, cabanas, spa treatments, al fresco dining, and two bars. The club is known for its swanky eats and awesome music, pioneering the concept of a seaside hangout.
This place is just fantastic. I go there quite often and even have a member card now. Both Pool areas are great, the staff is attentive, areas are clean. The food is always good and the Sunday brunch is amazing as well as the Friday Dinner Buffet. The selection offered is always good and the food is fresh and of good quality. The DJ's are always excellent but this of course is a matter of taste. You'll be happy if you like electronic music mostly. Ibiza style atmosphere. I'm a bit sensible with noise but never had the feeling that the music is uncomfortably loud. Always appropriate for each time in the day. As a member you get many benefits and it's really worth it. So happy to be part of the family )) I simply love this place. Thank you for always and consistently giving me a good experience for over 2 years now. I appreciate that so much.

Had an amazing Friday night at the BBQ buffet! There was such a huge variety of food, and everything was incredibly tasty. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming. What stood out the most was the staff they were all so nice, friendly, and extremely helpful. Their positive attitude and attentiveness made the experience even better. Definitely a place I’d love to visit again!
You definitely need to make a reservation before coming here! The restaurant was extremely busy on Sunday — fully packed everywhere 😅
On Sundays, they only serve buffet, so there’s no à la carte menu available.
If you prefer à la carte dining, it’s better to go to the restaurant next door
Had the most wonderful time here with my boyfriend. The food was brilliant from start to finish. 😍🤤🤤
The car park is spacious, and there’s even an ATM on site!
Highly recommended if you’re looking to enjoy an intimate dinner with a loved one or simply a special time with family. Catch Beach Club caters to all kinds of occasions! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Catch Beach Club is simply outstanding, both day and night. The beachfront location on Bang Tao is breathtaking, with stylish sunbeds, cabanas and lounge areas that make you want to stay forever. The restaurant serves a wide range of Mediterranean, Asian and local dishes — always fresh, beautifully presented and full of flavor.
Breakfast by the sea, the famous Sunday brunch and the Friday BBQ buffet are absolute highlights. As the sun sets, the vibe transforms: international DJs, great music, elegant lights and a lively crowd create an unforgettable atmosphere.
The staff is attentive, friendly and professional, making every visit feel special. Prices are above average, but totally worth it for the overall experience. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to enjoy Phuket’s most elegant mix of dining, beach life and nightlife.
Best beach club in Bang Tao beach, amazing atmosphere, great service, beautiful place and design. Food was delicious and done to perfection. Only cons, children can’t use the club’s pools, only at nearby resort and the dirty river entering the ocean next to the club making the water quite dirty. Otherwise no complaints.
Such a vibe! The food is excellent, the service is top-notch, and the beachfront location creates the perfect atmosphere especially at sunset. The view is absolutely stunning in every way, making it an ideal spot to unwind. It’s on the pricier side, but the quality, ambiance, and sunset experience make it totally worth it.
We were there during the day while they were setting up for the night “white party.” They probably should have just closed for the day, it was very chaotic with setting up stages, music, construction etc. and we were constantly reminded that we were only allowed to stay until 3. The pool was nice but there isn’t really beach access. Ended up going next door to Lazy Coconut and enjoyed that much more.

Bang Tao Beach
Mentioned on
Beach
Nature & Parks
Bang Tao Beach is a stunning destination on Phuket's west coast, known for its expansive shoreline adorned with soft white sands and crystal-clear blue waters. This beach offers the perfect blend of relaxation and activity, making it ideal for leisurely walks or invigorating runs along its compact sand. As you venture further north, you'll discover quieter spots that provide a serene escape from the busier areas.
We came here outside of season and it was amazing. You do have to walk quite a bit to get to the green space with trees but if you prefer lying on the beach any place will be good. You can have a meal at any restaurant and use their sunbeds. Because we came in monsoon season the ocean is quite energetic and it's difficult to swim because of the waves. The temperature of the Ocean is amazing, so warm! I would highly recommend it.

‼️‼️‼️🚩🚩🚩⚠️⚠️⚠️
A very dangerous beach. The sea currents can suddenly carry you into deep water. When the red flag is displayed, it's best not to enter the ocean because it's very dangerous!!!!!!.....⚠️⚠️⚠️🚩🚩🚩
Visited Bang Tao Beach in September during the off-season. The area was peaceful with fewer crowds, but there wasn’t much happening around. The weather was unpredictable with occasional rain, and the sea wasn’t at its best — not the clear blue with white sands you usually see in photos. Still, it’s a nice spot for a quiet stroll and relaxation away from the busier beaches.
At approximately 6 kilometers long, Bang Tao is one of the largest beaches in Phuket!
Bang Tao means “lagoon”. The lagoon has beautiful, well-maintained areas, golf courses. Everything around it looks European.
In the evening people go out for a jog, but, for all that, there is preserved traditional Thai architecture and exotic nature.
The atmosphere on the beach is calm and peaceful, which is taken advantage of by the large number of bathing moms with small children.
The flora of the beach is mainly made up of coniferous casuarinas.
The sea is transparent, turquoise in color. The sand on the beach is crisp, light gray in color. The depth of the entrance to the sea will depend on the place where you swim, but unlike many beaches, it will be deeper here! The beach is practically without low tides. The sunsets here are very beautiful!

One of the best beach in Phuket. Not busy like Patong and other famous beaches in Phuket like Karon. Beautiful sandy beach stretched. Rainy and dry season both are wonderful. If you want to stay in peaceful and little bit remote from busy tourist area, here is the one of the best place.
One of the nicest and cleanest beaches in whole of Phuket in my humble opinion. Been here a few time throughout the years. Always like to stay close to Xana. Beach restaurants close by offer amazing Thai food as well.
Visited in the first week of October...almost no rain...sunny days with short afternoon showers. Beautiful clean beach with lots of easy access to restaurants and shops. Lots of good accommodation alongside the beach. Waves were gentle and swimming safe. Close enough to Phuket central but away from the crazy city life. Great for young families.
Lovely beach with water sports, hotels and restaurants

Surin Beach is a stunning destination that captivates visitors with its pristine white sands and inviting turquoise waters. This picturesque beach not only provides comfortable chairs and umbrellas for rent but also features an array of street food vendors, making it a perfect spot to relax and indulge in local flavors. Nestled along Phuket's West Coast, Surin Beach is part of a breathtaking stretch that includes other beautiful beaches like Nai Yang, Naithon, and Mai Khao.
Very nice beach, you can go for a walk on the rocks on the right side to admire the nice views and get some privacy for yourself. I recommend 🙂

“During the rainy low season there aren’t too many tourists around. From about 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. it usually doesn’t rain, the water’s clear and great for swimming. You’ll see quite a few people surfing, and locals selling tasty food at good prices. There aren’t any big restaurants right on the beach.”
Honestly very disappointing. It’s a shame because it’s such a beautiful beach but lacks infraestructure, and the surrounding area is messy, there are no bathrooms, it looks unkempt
Great beach to take kids to. Water isn't to rough. There is a lot of construction going on at the beach front at the moment but still a great place for a swim
Surin Beach is a long stretch of white sand that runs parallel to the Andaman Sea. The crystal clear turquoise water and gentle waves are perfect for swimming and playing in the water. The overall atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing, making it a perfect getaway for those who want to escape the hustle and bustle.
In addition to its natural beauty, Surin Beach has many activities to do, such as sunbathing on the beach, strolling along the beach, playing beach volleyball, or snorkeling to see coral reefs and colorful schools of fish. There are also restaurants and small shops that serve tourists.
Whether you come to relax alone, with your lover, or with your family, Surin Beach is ready to provide you with an impressive experience. Come experience the happiness and beauty of this beach and you will surely fall in love with Surin Beach! "Welcome to enjoy life 😄 happy in Thailand "
Very nice beach, big waves when I went. Great for any sort of activities although looked good for quiet surfing as there was few people in the water.
Surin Beach is one of the most beautiful and peaceful beaches I’ve visited in Phuket.
The water is crystal clear, the sand is soft and fine, and the beach isn’t too crowded — even during the high season, you can still find a quiet spot to relax.
The sunset is absolutely stunning, and the natural landscape is picture-perfect. Whether you’re swimming, sunbathing, or just sitting with a book, it’s the kind of place you can enjoy all day without getting bored.
Highly recommended if you’re looking for a beach that combines natural beauty with a calm, laid-back vibe.
A small park currently being redeveloped but still accessible , it has numerous strangler fig trees which have Casuarina trees and Palmyra and others as hosts. It is interesting to see that where most trees consequently die the palmyras seem to not only survive but flourish.

Green Elephant Sanctuary Park

Temporarily Closed
Animal protection organization
Green Elephant Sanctuary Park is a lush sanctuary nestled in the jungle near Surin Beach, providing a natural and safe home for rescued elephants. Visitors can participate in guided tours to feed, bathe, and care for these gentle giants under the supervision of experienced elephant trainers. Founded by two Swiss nationals with a passion for improving the lives of elephants in Thailand, the park operates according to European animal protection laws.
Amazing experience! If you have the time book it! You get to interact with the elephants in an amazing once in a life time experience. You learn how the mahout tend and care for the elephants their entirety of the elephants life until one or the other dies. You get to give the elephants a mud scrub, you get to hand feed them, shower them and tons and tons of pictures taken by the sanctuary’s photographers that are uploaded the very next day free of charge! Transportation to and from the sanctuary is prohibited provided as well as lunch. The lunch is chili free and allergy friendly. There are vegans options. Hands down the best part of my entire trip to Phuket.

I really enjoyed my visit. The elephants are beautiful and seem quite relaxed. First we met the baby elephant with its mum, and this was a quick meet and greet. I liked that it was a short meeting so the e baby or mother didn’t get stressed out. Then we met many more older elephants at various locations around the sanctuary. My young son really enjoyed feeding them the vegetables. Lovely staff and a great experience.
This is a must-do attraction when visiting Phuket.
A very close and direct encounter with these majestic animals. You get to feed them some treats, pat them and do them a mud-wash bath.
The elephants are calm, friendly and treated very well. They are not forced into anything, and they are not abused.
The pickup from the hotel was smooth and on-time, the included buffet lunch was good, and the place is very kid-friendly.
There are professional photos taken by a photographer of you with the elephants which can be downloaded later, and it's included in the visit.
Each elephant has a dedicated keeper (Mahout) that is familiar with the elephant and accompanies it all the time. So the whole visit feels very safe and organized.
My wife and I visited with our two small children, and we all had an amazing time!
I am so glad we chose this one! They only have elephants saved from jungle ride, tracking and locking! So spending money here goes to taking good care of them!
We had amazing time, elephants are so calm, happy and peaceful ☺️ they have teenager elephant for kids, and they give them priority (I don’t have kids on my own yet, but I really liked that!)
You have plenty of time to feed them, take fotos, scrub them with mod, splash them in pond with cans, rub them with brooms 🚿🧹
Profi photographers are taking fotos non stop, it is soooo cool, you can relax and enjoy, we left our phones for most of the time.
Food is delicious especially chicken nuggets and spring rolls. Driver was amazing too, he let us connect to play music along ride.
A must visit sanctuary. The highlight of our cruise. Amazing to get up close to these incredible elephants and to learn about how they have been rescued. Each elephant has a keeper for life who lives on site. You are not allowed to ride the elephants and all interactions are well supervised. Lunch was prepared on site in an open kitchen, great food - don’t miss this!
We booked direct with the sanctuary and they picked us up from the ship.
Kaz & Nige
The most amazing place. The place & elephants are beautiful. You feed, mud bath & shower the elephants which is so fun. You can tell it is ethical and that the elephants are well cared for and loved. You get picked up & dropped back to wherever you are staying, a lovely selection of food, fruit & drink and they take amazing professional photos of the whole time which are free ok Facebook. Amazing for the price and run so well would definitely recommend.
It was a very good experience seeing elephants for the first time in my life. The speeches they gave showed so much respect and love for these animals. I strongly recommend this sanctuary. In my opinion, the price is very worth it for everything they deliver, like a delicious lunch with Thai food, beverages, and free pick-up/drop-off.
Had an amazing experience visiting Green Elephant Sanctuary. They made the entire experience seamless and worry free from pick up at hotel to attending to all guests when arriving, and guiding us all throughout the experience. The elephants are rescued from tough situations. You get to feed them, give them therapeutic mud baths, and a rinse. There are photographers in various areas taking photos for you. They have clean showers for once you are done, and a tasty Thai buffet for the end! I highly recommend if you are visiting Phuket.

For a unique dining experience, guests can enjoy dinner suspended by a crane high above Karon Beach with stunning views. The mini golf spot is perfect for families, offering kid-sized tees and surprises around every corner on the course. Additionally, it provides food and drinks at reasonable prices.
We had an absolutely fantastic experience as a family at Adventure Mini Golf! The mini golf course provided an immense amount of fun and entertainment.
The package prices were incredibly fair, encompassing all our desires, including refreshing drinks and a thoughtful wet towel at the end of the 18 holes. Each game we played brought a new level of excitement and enjoyment.
The staff's friendliness and helpfulness further elevated our experience. They were readily available to assist us, enhancing the overall positive atmosphere.
Undoubtedly, this is a fantastic destination for families seeking enjoyable activities and the opportunity to create enduring memories. Our time at Adventure Mini Golf was thoroughly enjoyable, and we're already looking forward to returning in the near future!

For 500 baht you have unlimited golf. It is suggested to go near the evening as it can be quite hot and sweaty. Lucky the place also give you ice cold tower and their cocktail is quite good which is over my expectation.
Great place to enjoy the fun of golf! An 18-hole mini golf course, perfect for spending quality time with family or friends.
A beautiful minigolf with great staff and good food. For 750 baht per person you get to play 18 holes and have full dinner/lunch. It takes about 2 hours to finish everything. Enjoy!
Fun place to go mini golfing. A little expensive, but a fun time. Course is well maintained.
Amazing place for kids and adults. Realistic mini golf. Can spend at least 3 hours here for 18 holes. Best is to go in evening about 4 pm. Wear loose long sleeves and pants to minimise mosquitps
Phuket Adventure Mini Golf offers a delightful family outing. From the creatively designed mini golf courses suitable for all ages to the delicious Thai and Western cuisine served at the onsite restaurant, it’s a place where fun meets great food. With 18 unique mini golf holes and convenient parking, it’s a must-visit for families seeking quality time together.
The service could be more pleasant, but overall, my impression of Thai people is negative. Tourism is their livelihood, but I find the effort lacking. However, I rate the place very highly! It's tidy, clean... like new :) It was a pleasant experience, thank you.
I'll never travel to Choeng Thale without this trip planner again

At the Elephant Wildlife Sanctuary, visitors can engage in a unique and educational experience with free-roaming elephants. The Save and Care Programme offers insight into the creatures' history and behavior, while also providing opportunities to feed them and participate in spa treatments to heal skin damage. Professional guides lead tours through the sanctuary's spectacular landscape, offering an up-close look at these magnificent animals in their natural habitat. Visitors can create a bond with the elephants through various activities, making for an unforgettable and natural experience.
I would recommend this adventure with a purpose to everyone. You can choose your adventure 2 or 4 hours. You help chop up the treats you'll feed them. You scrub the elephants down with a clay rub, shower them off, and get in the pool to rinse them off. It's a once in a lifetime experience. It'll leave you with your heart full of love for the elephants and the people who take care of them.

The food alone is well worth the trip! We went for lunch and had delicious vegetarian Khao Soi noodles, pad Thai and spring rolls. The food was hot, fresh and yummy! We got to watch an elephant (Lotus) eat her lunch just a few meters from where we sat in the restaurant. It was amazing! We’ll have to return soon to take a tour with the elephants.
Love the experience of being around these amazing creatures. It was the most amazing and one of my bucket list.
The experience was wonderful everything from cutting their fruits and feeding them to rubbing mud on their skin which I learned helps to protect their skin, to bathing with them. The whole time felt safe and our guide was very informative and super kind to all the elephants. I felt blessed to be around these gentle creatures. Thank you so much.
This is a great place. It really looks like they take care properly of the elephants. I was able to feed baby elephants and to bath a mom. Highly recommended. Took the 2 hours package.
A Truly Ethical Elephant Experience
This sanctuary is a safe haven for rescued elephants. They live freely, without chains or riding, and are clearly well cared for. The staff shows real love and respect, focusing on the animals’ wellbeing. It’s a beautiful place that truly puts the elephants first. Highly recommended for anyone who values ethical animal tourism.
Amazing place! Keepers take very good care of their elephants, the experience of caring for these giants was brilliant. I've been to an elephant sanctuary on a previous visit and it did not compare to this one. Was very heart warming to see and know how much time and love they put into their elephants. Would highly recommend, 10/10. We learned, there is one keeper assigned to one elephant and they live on the premises with that to provide them with 24/7 care. Everything is made from their own resources and medicines are made with natural ingredients grown on the land. The elephants are very happy! There are no chains, no whips, no forced actions towards the animals. Even the dogs enjoy seeing new faces, following the heards and engaging with customers. Cooked meals were provided and endless bottles of water is given. Really, really love this place. Would like to go back before going home if able.
Please support this sanctuary, you will not be disappointed.
Purchased: special half day experience - 100% worth the money!
I visited here on vacation with my mom, and we were initially a bit skeptical since some places don’t always treat animals well. But after doing our research and reading the reviews, we decided to go — and I would go back in a heartbeat!
The staff was incredible, especially our guide, Natthaphat. He was so knowledgeable about the elephants and incredibly kind. Honestly, I think he could’ve been a professional photographer — he took so many amazing photos for us throughout the experience!
I was also really impressed by how attentive the staff was to families. They went above and beyond to make sure kids felt safe while parents could still relax and enjoy the visit.
We even got one-on-one time with Bruno, one of the elephants, who was so playful and clearly adored by his handler. You can really feel how much they care for these animals. I guess we can talk about Bruno now.
Next time I’m in Phuket, I’ll definitely be coming back!
I was with my daughter, 3 years old.
It was very comfortable and exciting meeting!!!
All people was so kind and told interesting story’s ! Elephants was are quite and big)) we not tired, but very happy!!
Thank you very much!!!

One of the best sunset views I’ve ever seen anywhere in the world—the sky keeps changing colors and it’s absolutely mesmerizing. There are plenty of activities to enjoy along the beach. The only downside is the frequent approach from traders, which might interrupt the peaceful vibe for some visitors.
Great views, can get quite packed in some areas. Also have massage spots right by the beach.
Kamala beach offers scenic views and a calm atmosphere, rather than those seeking nightlife or a lot of nearby dining options. For peace and tranquility — Kamala is perfect. For action and entertainment — Patong would be better.
Wow lovely beach... Near n clean, very spacious and peaceful
Nice beach.. clean sands and few water activities for those interested in surfing. There are few options for food and snacks. Shades for a fee are available.
The water is clean, the sand is soft, and the atmosphere is much calmer compared to other crowded beaches like Patong
Kamala beach offers a serene stretch of golden sand framed by lush hills, offering a tranquil escape from the usual tourist buzz. Stretching nearly 3Km, it’s very peaceful and family- friendly atmosphere. Kamala beach is ideal for sun downtime. There is an array of beachfront restaurants serving Thai and international fare.

Beach club
Café Del Mar Phuket, located on Kamala Beach, offers a sophisticated and classy atmosphere for beach club enthusiasts. Despite being an unexpected location for the famous Ibiza nightlife brand, it has become a popular destination since its establishment in 2017. The choice of Kamala Beach over busier areas like Patong Beach provides a more relaxed ambiance while still attracting music lovers from across Phuket.
Amazing restaurant. We arrived a little before sunset and went down to the beach to watch it and it was amazing. Relaxed and magical atmosphere. We made a reservation for 10 people for 7:00 PM and they waited for us and seated us exactly in the area we requested.The waiters were polite and explained all the dishes nicely. The food that arrived was perfect and delicious. In addition, they brought us a cake on the house and fireworks for the child who was celebrating his birthday and we made sure to tell them about it in advance.In short, a restaurant with a perfect atmosphere and amazing food.

The property is very well maintained and has a high-quality feel. We initially booked a pool sunbed, which was fully exposed to the sun. On the beach there are sunbeds under the trees that provide shade in the morning, which seemed more pleasant at first. In the afternoon, however, these spots also end up in full sun, while many pool sunbeds remain shaded for longer.
The pool is very clean, with a temperature of over 30 degrees that feels almost warm. The pool bar is in excellent condition. The beach in front of the venue is beautiful, with fine sand and clear water. The waves make it enjoyable for swimming.
Music volume is well balanced, never too loud or too quiet, fitting the atmosphere perfectly. Service is friendly and attentive.
Prices are on par with international standards. A 0.75-liter bottle of Rosé Minuty costs 2800 Baht, which reflects the usual market rate.
Overall, Café Del Mar Phuket offers a refined and well-kept setting. The sunbed situation depends on the time of day, but the combination of beach, pool, and service makes it a worthwhile place to spend a relaxed day.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5-Star Review)
Had a great time at Cafe Delmare! The atmosphere was amazing — cozy and vibrant at the same time. The music was really pleasant and set the perfect mood for the evening. A lovely spot to relax and unwind with friends. Definitely visiting again!
KJ our waiter DESERVES A 5 start too. 🤗
Bad service. Okay music. If you’re willing to spend you can find better beach clubs in the area.
. First were told to checkin every 30 mins. Did that for 2 hours and no tables. Continued to sit at the bar - wanted to order food and sheesha and were told cannot order at the bar.
Liars and disappointments. Waited for 2 hours for a table while sitting at the bar. Asked the bar tender if we could go to the beach and come back. Said yes. Went to take photos(10 mins) and came back our seat was given to someone else. Told you cannot reserve. Lol why dint the bar tender tell us.
A lady in blue dress comes and explains cannot reserve the seat. We will give you a table next and asked to go to a counter. I go there and the lady in a pink dress says we cannot do that and no one told you that. Both are the ladies talk and have an argument the lady in blue changes her story now and says you need to checkin every 30
mins.
Walked out of the restaurant. If you cannot accommodate a guest be clear and explicit. Also, stop judging people on skin color. People are different.
Café del Mar Phuket — A Must-Visit Restaurant Experience
This review is of the restaurant Cafe Del Mar. It is fantastic.
The speed with which they prepared our order was impressive. The food was excellent, the ambiance is relaxed and lovely while the ocean views are breathtaking. It's a wonderful place to have a meal and you shouldn't miss it while visiting Phuket. Definitely recommended
Visited it for the second time and this time it was even better than the previous one. Delmar Cafe and Restaurant is always distinguished, excellent and comprehensive service, great organization, fast receiving and delivering orders, all the staff without exception are cheerful and kind
But special thanks to the employee (Fred Pop) for her good treatment, kindness and speed in implementing the requests. She was professional in her work and she deserves the best 👏🏻
Good location. It seems nice from the outside.
Unfortunately the guards did not let me in because i had a bottle of water in my bag...🤷 Like if i was not going to order anything 😆 the paillotes nearby will be more than happy to serve you 👍🏻
The place is well maintained and clean. Very clean beach outside.
Options for vegetarians (without egg meat fish etc) are very limited but whatever we ate tasted very well.
Staff is courteous and helpful.
A bit pricey if not many ppl in the group are not drinking. Overall a good experience

Such an amazing experience !!!
There are 3 of the female elephants in the sanctuary right now (one of them is unfortunately sick). They are beautiful, calm and very cute. Each elephant has their own caretaker, who is available all the time during the tour. The guide knows English quite nice and gives you some information about elephants past, habits, daily routine etc.
You have the opportunity to feed them, take a walk, make a mud spa and a bath in the lake with elephants.
You can see that all elephants trust their caretakers and there is definitely no cruelty in the sanctuary.
Strongly recommend! ❤️

We enjoyed our experience so much!
The personal is very friendly and fun. There’s only 3 elephants but in a small group it’s more than enough. We had many activities with elephants, they were very easy to interact with and just lovely in their being.
The guide knows so much about those creatures! We revealed many interesting facts about elephants and their nature.
Also they organize a very comfortable transfer to the Sanctuary and back home.
Really recommend! Great value for such money.
Note: this place is cruelty free which is a big factor of choice for me personally.
We visited this elephant sanctuary today with our 2 daughters (7 & 10) and highly recommend it to anyone who is keen to experience the elephants whilst visiting Thailand but very conscious about cruelty towards these beautiful souls.
This sanctuary is so ethical, the care takers and guide provided us with a lot of information. We were able to feed them, walk with them as the roam free, rub mud all over their skin (which they loved) and then bathe them.
No chains, no riding, no cruelty.
A wonderful experience, we will never forget.
Affordable and approx 1.30 hours - perfect amount of time.
Highly recommend.
The whole experience was so smooth and nice! The pickup from the hotel was on time and we were the only guests at the sanctuary with my boyfriend. They have 4 elephants and you get to have close contact with them. At first we fed the elephants, then we watched them eat and could take pictures with them. After that we watched the elephants take mud baths and joined them in the water as well! The whole experience was respectful towards the animals and they looked genuinely happy and loved. Highly recommend this experience!
Felt like a completely legitimate experience. The handlers are inseparable from their elephants, and obviously love them completely. You get to feed the elephants, give them a mud scrub, have a swim and a wash with them, and just generally hang out, but definitely NO RIDING. We took the extra experience of making their medicine and mulching their poo to make paper. We loved it, and the kids absolutely adored it. My daughter wants to adopt Dukdik, the blind and pretty much deaf one.
We visited the park with my family. We chose not to ride with the elephants, which in our view harms them, but to feed them and survive together in the mud. I wholeheartedly recommend visiting this place. An opportunity to get to know the elephants closer and learn a lot of valuable information about them.
THIS is a TRUE Sanctuary. There are no pens, no chains, no hooks. I was looking for shady parts. There is ZERO signs of animal abuse or exploit. You can see in their eyes that they are not sad. This place deserves every penny and its worth everything to see these animals happy and taken cared off. Each elephant has a caregiver they listen to. The elephants simply go by word and if they dont listen that is ok too. They don't force them to do anything and the roam freely around. Three of them came to bath with us and they seemed to really enjoyed it. This was a truly exceptional experience and I hope they keep it this way in the future. The elephants are rescued from working for others, caring wood and other stuff. Would recommend to anyone who cares about animals. I would even encourage to support this place as is not easy to take care for the elephants as they eat A LOT (around 200-300kg) and they have to provide food for them. LOVED IT. And I'm happy I found what I was looking for - a real Sanctuary. Thank you for supporting this place and thanks to Elephant House Sanctuary for taking such great care for the elephants!
Once in a life time experience. The elephant’s are free to roam round, and they look happy and content. First you start by feeding the elephants bananas, and then they walk over to eat palm tree leaves, then you can wash them in a mud bath. Then finally you can swim with them and clean them in the pond. The only reason for the 4 starts, is because we saw a monkey chained up in a property on the way back from the pond. We weren’t sure if the people owned that property, and may have not been apart of the elephant area.

Elephant Care Nai Dee offers a truly ethical and heartwarming elephant experience, focused on rescue and rehabilitation without rides or cruelty. The staff are funny. friendly and knowledgeable, and the elephants are clearly well cared for and respected. From feeding to bathing them in the river, every activity felt natural and meaningful. A must-visit for anyone who wants to support responsible tourism and see elephants treated with the love they deserve.
If you’re looking for a place where you can both connect with elephants and enjoy an authentic cooking class, this is it. The sanctuary provides plenty of food and care for the elephants, and we had the unforgettable experience of feeding them, giving them a mud scrub and rinse, and then previewing a cooking class. It was such a unique, well-rounded day that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting!
Visiting Elephant Care Park Nai Dee was one of the most memorable experiences of my trip. The park is beautiful and provides such a peaceful environment where the elephants are truly cared for with love and respect. I had the chance to feed these gentle giants and even bathe with them, which was such a unique and heartwarming experience.
The staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and knowledgeable. They made sure everyone felt comfortable and safe while also sharing interesting insights about the elephants and their daily lives.
This visit was not just fun, but also meaningful—I left with a deeper appreciation for these amazing animals. It’s an experience I will never forget, and I highly recommend Elephant Care Park Nai Dee to anyone who wants to connect with elephants in an ethical and unforgettable way.
This was the highlight of my Thailand trip, one of the best experiences I've had so far. The guides are very entertaining, enthusiastic and energetic. They make the whole experience a hundred times more fun and enjoyable.
We went with the full care experience package and I highly recommend this to everyone regardless of how much you like elephants.
We started with making food for the elephants, feeding them, scrubbing them with mud and then bathing them.
They also showed us how traditional Thai food like pad thai and papaya salad is made, which was very tasty.
We were vegetarian and they took out the time to prepare a separate vegetarian spread for us even though we were just 7 people.
The experience was very wholesome and I have nothing but praises for the entire team for making the experience so special. I would recommend everyone to try this out if you're in Thailand. It will definitely be something you'll remember for the rest of your lives, and that's not even an exaggeration.
The sanctuary is cruelty free and they care for the elephants immensely. The elephants are very well behaved and fun to be around. I just wished the day wouldn't end.
One of our favourite experience in Phuket. The staff were fun and friendly. Generous with our time spent with the elephants and food served was great!
Loads of complimentary e photos from them so we could thoroughly enjoy the experience without worrying about taking photos.
Highly recommended if you’re in Phuket
I had an incredible experience here! The staff were so kind, so funny, and so generous. We were given two full meals (both delicious) and a snack along with a free, good quality, medal at the end just for participating! They also took professional grade photos throughout the experience, which we received for free less than 3 hours after leaving. They gave everyone in my party (6 people) free elephant magnets at the end just because we said we liked them, and they ordered us a Grab (Thailand’s Uber/Lyft) back to our villa when we were having a hard time doing that. They were so funny and demonstrated great care and respect for the elephants. 12/10 I absolutely recommend Elephant Care Park Phuket!
Visiting the elephant farm was an unforgettable experience. The elephants are kept in conditions that feel just like their natural habitat, and it’s clear they are treated with genuine love and care. The organization of the day was excellent – everything ran smoothly and with great attention to detail. We also enjoyed a wonderful demonstration of Thai cooking, followed by delicious snacks and a tasty lunch. The atmosphere throughout was warm, welcoming, and very enjoyable.

The Siam Supper Club
Permanently Closed
expensive
Restaurant
The Siam Supper Club, located near Bangtao Beach on Phuket's West coast, has recently undergone renovations and new ownership. Despite being in an upmarket area, the atmosphere is relaxed and the prices are surprisingly reasonable. This iconic establishment has been a favorite among locals and tourists for over two decades. It is renowned for its masterful takes on international and local dishes made with high-quality ingredients.
Last night's wine paired dinner, on the invitation of Jagota, one of Thailand's top meat importers. Siam Supper Club has been around for a very long time, and it's current Chef David Hands brings an inspired and fresh vibe to the place. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening, and will return soon.

It was just amazing! The restaurant is excellent, the food is very good! The bartenders were the most amazing ever! So nice, they recommended us food and especially the alcohol and cocktails! We really enjoyed it! Highly recommend
The staff is very friendly and professional. We went for the birthday dinner and the staff was very helpful with a cake surprise. The atmosphere and decorations are very well organized. The food and drinks are amazing and the service was so quick, we will definitely go back again and recommend it to our friends!
Exceptional restaurant with delicious food. The menu is very refined with amazing selection. Service & ambiance are good as well. Also, stunning wine selection with some bottle without alcohol. Impressive all!
Came here on the Monday Jazz Night. Not only was the atmosphere great, but so was the food & drinks. Smooth live music and perfectly cooked hanger steak for sharing. A bit pricier but worth every bite and especially for this rare and authentic vibe. The place is very lively much later on in the night though.
Came here for our last dinner in Phuket and it was amazing! Every dish we had was delicious but the french onion soup was to die for. Wish I had gotten their names but all staff were very very friendly and welcoming. The drinks were also so yummy and in words of my sister– “It’s one of the best cocktails I’ve had”. Will definitely come back when I have the chance.
A brilliant experience overall! My partner brought me here for my birthday - and we travelled from Patong Beach. The hour-lomg drive up was incredible as we caught the sunset ( so I would suggest timing your reservation to catch the incredible views!).
We ordered several dishes (generous portions!) and were serenated by the awesome live band (Mondays and Wednesdays) amidst a comfortable and cosy ambience.
I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated the staff's hard work and dedication- from introducing the various cocktails and dishes, to asking us when we would like the items served! 🥰
This is a great place for a celebration or even just a chill dinner spot.
(Tip: try the mushroom risotto if it's available, and the tres leches cake - if you have a sweet tooth)
The only place u should come if u are t
craving steak , this place is a new york style classy steakhouse, I came on the jazz night on monday. The jazz music is great! The truffle risotto and the steak are so good🤩

Fabulous food with friendly staff, nicest re Thai curry I have tasted so far. Really nice intimate restaurant and quiet too.

Really good value and must recommend

Food is good, service is excellent! Especially the thin young boy who speak good English and the lady who can speak English and Thai. Will definitely come back here again. Thanks for the good service.
The girls here serve with a smile, the food I enjoyed the most in Patong.
I recommend their chicken fried rice and chicken with cashews (dry)
Clean and ride place, must try if you are at Patong
The food was great and delicious. The prices are low comparing with other Thai restaurants. Menu is easy to understand (that’s the problem in Phuket). Portions are big and the waitresses are friendly and polite.
staff is nice and it looks clean and tidy. I had something simple namely Thai fish cakes and a beef burger with fries. I have eaten a lot of Thai fish cakes but these were really one of the worst ever. It tasted like fake fish and a factory product of a cheap brand. The burger tasted okay but was covered in grease. The thin French fries were fried well but were so salty that I had to remove it with a paper. This for me never again.
I have been coming to this place for years now, until Covid hit… so, once I was planning return to Patong, first thing was to see, if Corner has survived it. First it said - permanently closed. And then, just shortly before coming - new location! But just around the corner🤩 so, I just run there as soon as I arrived - and it did not disappoint. It is as perfect as ever, the taste, the fantastic staff, cosy atmosphere🥰 I just hope, they can get bigger again. I always remember you, once I think of Thailand❤️
It's a small restaurant near Patong beach. I came along with 6 other people, and all the foods are tasty. I tried the pineapple fried rice and it tastes really good! They also have western menu, like hamburger and chicken schnitzel. The owner can speak german fluently. Price is quite cheap.
Friendly staff but the food is not particularly special. The American Breakfast is a decent deal but the breakfast sausage comes with the English Breakfast and unfortunately the price goes up significantly. Cute little restaurant though.

Catch Beach Club

Beach club
Located on the west coast of Bang Tao Beach, Catch Beach Club is a popular destination for locals and tourists in Phuket. It offers an Andaman beachfront experience with an infinity pool, cabanas, spa treatments, al fresco dining, and two bars. The club is known for its swanky eats and awesome music, pioneering the concept of a seaside hangout.
This place is just fantastic. I go there quite often and even have a member card now. Both Pool areas are great, the staff is attentive, areas are clean. The food is always good and the Sunday brunch is amazing as well as the Friday Dinner Buffet. The selection offered is always good and the food is fresh and of good quality. The DJ's are always excellent but this of course is a matter of taste. You'll be happy if you like electronic music mostly. Ibiza style atmosphere. I'm a bit sensible with noise but never had the feeling that the music is uncomfortably loud. Always appropriate for each time in the day. As a member you get many benefits and it's really worth it. So happy to be part of the family )) I simply love this place. Thank you for always and consistently giving me a good experience for over 2 years now. I appreciate that so much.

Had an amazing Friday night at the BBQ buffet! There was such a huge variety of food, and everything was incredibly tasty. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming. What stood out the most was the staff they were all so nice, friendly, and extremely helpful. Their positive attitude and attentiveness made the experience even better. Definitely a place I’d love to visit again!
You definitely need to make a reservation before coming here! The restaurant was extremely busy on Sunday — fully packed everywhere 😅
On Sundays, they only serve buffet, so there’s no à la carte menu available.
If you prefer à la carte dining, it’s better to go to the restaurant next door
Had the most wonderful time here with my boyfriend. The food was brilliant from start to finish. 😍🤤🤤
The car park is spacious, and there’s even an ATM on site!
Highly recommended if you’re looking to enjoy an intimate dinner with a loved one or simply a special time with family. Catch Beach Club caters to all kinds of occasions! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Catch Beach Club is simply outstanding, both day and night. The beachfront location on Bang Tao is breathtaking, with stylish sunbeds, cabanas and lounge areas that make you want to stay forever. The restaurant serves a wide range of Mediterranean, Asian and local dishes — always fresh, beautifully presented and full of flavor.
Breakfast by the sea, the famous Sunday brunch and the Friday BBQ buffet are absolute highlights. As the sun sets, the vibe transforms: international DJs, great music, elegant lights and a lively crowd create an unforgettable atmosphere.
The staff is attentive, friendly and professional, making every visit feel special. Prices are above average, but totally worth it for the overall experience. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to enjoy Phuket’s most elegant mix of dining, beach life and nightlife.
Best beach club in Bang Tao beach, amazing atmosphere, great service, beautiful place and design. Food was delicious and done to perfection. Only cons, children can’t use the club’s pools, only at nearby resort and the dirty river entering the ocean next to the club making the water quite dirty. Otherwise no complaints.
Such a vibe! The food is excellent, the service is top-notch, and the beachfront location creates the perfect atmosphere especially at sunset. The view is absolutely stunning in every way, making it an ideal spot to unwind. It’s on the pricier side, but the quality, ambiance, and sunset experience make it totally worth it.
We were there during the day while they were setting up for the night “white party.” They probably should have just closed for the day, it was very chaotic with setting up stages, music, construction etc. and we were constantly reminded that we were only allowed to stay until 3. The pool was nice but there isn’t really beach access. Ended up going next door to Lazy Coconut and enjoyed that much more.

Nestled in the heart of Phuket, Black Cat Bar & Restaurant has been a beloved dining spot for years, drawing in both locals and travelers alike. With its inviting bamboo-themed decor and warm lighting, it creates a cozy atmosphere perfect for enjoying delicious meals. The menu is an enticing mix of Thai, French, and international dishes that cater to diverse palates at wallet-friendly prices.
You might see this place on the roadside and not give it a second thought… so many restaurants around here. I only came here on a recommendation from a long time Bangtao resident who loves steak. I wanted a Tenderloin, but didn’t want to pay El Gaucho prices. This steak was AMAZING, and I’ll probably never get steak anywhere else! 650 baht for this beauty. The garlic butter dip is what put it over the top. Impeccable service also. If steak is not your thing, don’t worry… the menu is extensive. Must try this place…

I don't often do reviews, but this one is needed! The french chef here is so friendly, the steaks are tender, pasta delicious, beef carpaccio to die for! best french restaurant in Bangtao i ate in!
Cocktails are another level, and very affordable prices
We were really full but decided to try the recommended creme brulee dessert. The taste was sooo soft, malted in my mouth.
Great place with excellent food, service and drinks. Been around for over 20 years and been many times. Still love this place and many of the same people have been employed there for a long time. Highly recommend.
Really loved the French food, the steak is so soft, and the striganoff sauce with pasta is amazing. Also tried the cheese pie with beef and the cordon blue, was so yummy we got a take away 😋 If you are in Bangtao try it
After reading some indifferent reviews I thought I'd give this restaurant a go. The restaurant is quite large inside with a bar area and lots of seating. There is no air-conditioning however there are lots of fans installed to keep the air circulating and the environment a comfortable one to sit and enjoy a meal. The menu is quite large with both French and Thai options. In the end I settled on Thai, ordering some spring rolls, red chicken curry and steamed rice. All the food was delicious and the service very attentive. I asked for the curry to be a little bit spicy and it was delivered to perfection. A bit of a zing however not even to drown out the lovely flavours. With the meal and two singha beers adding up to 510 Baht, I thought it was pretty good value and definitely worth checking out.
Had diner last night and shared with a friend of mine a fantastic piece of beef with homemade French fries and béarnaise sauce.Top!
It is not the first time that I have been at Black cat and both the French food and the Thai food are excellent . Also excellent value for money! Highly recommended !~
This restaurant is always very busy when we ride past so we decided to give it a try and were very happy we did.
The waiter WUT was excellent and very attentive and looked after our needs.
The food was fantastic and the food service was very quick. Entrees and mains were delicious and the desserts are amazing. Will definitely return again. Thank you
Was there last night for dinner with my friends new made friends in Phuket
We ordered wine 🍷 to start with the service was very slow and sporadic!
The wine was as finished in our glasses and no one to come to refill the glasses as wine was in a 🧊 bucket 🪣
We ordered the the tenderloin & country potatoes 🥔 along with ribeye and mashed potatoes 🥔 plus the chocolate mousse (no whip cream was served with it like mentioned on here as selection) the mouse very rich and creamy
Crème brûlée 🍮 was also ordered but very very full after the meal
The tenderloin was a bit raw for my liking I ordered medium well no pink but it was quite raw! I wanted to say something but the sever staff was too busy and slow not paying attention to customers!
But food and prices are quite reasonable 🙏🏼🙏🏼
The extra mushrooms 🍄 I ordered were practically raw and not cooked throughly 🙃!

We had the most amazing dinner here, all the food was incredible! Beautifully presented, tasty, and a creative menu.
The restaurant also showcased art from Thai and international artists. A very cool venue to have an exceptional dinner experience!
Taste is our go-to place for our family if we want guaranteed good food. The Sunday brunch is creative and great value. Their recently launched breakfast and lunch menu is amazing with HOMEMADE sausages and hashbrowns. Our favorites on the menu is fish taco, any of the flatbreads, burgers, and their dessert. Good cocktails and friendly staff make it a perfect evening spot as well.
What a wonderful bar and restaurant!
The owners, Jade and Martin, are so welcoming. You will feel just right at home here with excellent food and booze. The service is also top-notch!
Highly recommend to try their Spanish Gin and tonic, it so refreshing and delicious.
We will definitely be back for sure.
Been here couple of times, fabulous food, lovely service, unique cocktails definitely will come back again to try out their brunch menu.
Breakfast- fabulous new menu. Delicious food, from concept to eating! Martin and Jade have exceeded expectations.
Only pics of dessert as we ate the rest before taking photos.
Taste has become my go to place! The food, service and atmosphere are all great, their set Sunday Brunch sublime and incredible value for money. I recently had my birthday lunch there and could not have asked for a better day ... plus the Spanish GnT's are fabulous!! Thank you 🙏 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
With a chic but inviting interior and attentive staff, my entire experience for brunch was a welcome reprieve from the heat and traffic of Phuket. I thoroughly enjoyed a huge breakfast with sausage that won't be found anywhere else on the island. The toast (which was better than just toast) came with jam that was made in-house that morning. I concluded my meal with a latte, and the kind of joyous conversation that only emerges when great food is the centerpiece. Ten out of ten, will certainly be back.
I'll never travel to Choeng Thale without this trip planner again

Staff at Audy restaurant is amazing, catering to your every need, helpful and friendly. The food is excellent and so reasonably priced that we ate there every day. Pad Thai, delicious. Massaman Curry, delicious. Mango Sticky rice, delicious. Everything we had there was wonderful. They also have a spot down on the north end of Surin Beach. You can get most of the food options as the restaurant (I think they bring some of it down from the main restaurant) and eat or drink by the beach while watching the sun set.
Good value with great service. Close to the Surin Hotel and beach nearby.
We tried the Phad Thai, green curry with chicken, spring roll and the morning glory. Standard quality but the service and hospitality makes up for everything else.
Cozy outdoor place next to the surin beach. Wide menu of cocktails, drinks and delicious meals from international and local cuisine. Highly recommended, prices are acceptable and we had really nice time.
Good service. They send us to the near hotel by their small car.
They prawn with garlic&pepper sauce was amazing!
Aroi sut sut! One of the only places in the area that has reliably served delicious meals that have never made me sick. Food is always fresh, the staff is so friendly and attentive, and the added touches of hospitality are just so welcome. I've been coming here multiple times a week throughout my stay and it has been lovely every time. Thank you Audy!
Outstanding service and food at Audy!
We found them at Surin Beach where we had THE BEST coconuts of our lives. They took us back to their restaurant and we had an exceptional meal. The whole fish and crab were standouts. Value for money, it's very hard to go past Audy. We will be back! 🙌
Fantastic family owned restaurant on the road just up from Outrigger resort Surin.
We have tried a few restaurants in this area and nothing comes close as far as authentic Thai food is concerned. Great service and friendly people.
Highly recommend this restaurant.
Well priced and the staff will also pick you up from the front of the Outrigger resort and drop you back later.

When my husband recommended me this restaurant, I was a bit skeptical because it looked kinda “touristic”.
But after I had my first bite, I realized I was totally wrong! You can count on all the menus they have from western to traditional thai food. We visited 2 times while staying in this area. The portion is also big, so you will be super full after finishing them if you can :)

OMG we are sure glad that we picked this restaurant to eat at. The Thai food was delicious for my Thailand wife and the ribs and grilled vegetables were just like Kansas City Missouri in America. Large portions we packed some of our food to go home. Really very good prices for Phuket
Often go to Ann’s Kitchen, as the thai food is great! Always served hot and fresh, with good ingredients. It’s a place I visit more than once when in Bangtao. Also great for take away or delivery service to villa. Keep up the great work!
Great place to start the day. The Coffee is great and their new aircon breakfast/dining area nice and cool and clean. Menu is extensive from super healthy to the full works and good selection of wines by the glass for lunchtime and evenings. In the heart of Boat Avenue.
By far my FAVORITE restaurant in Phuket 💖 I order breakfast from here almost everyday!
I’m usually very picky with the avocado 🥑and it is very hard to find a place that serves good quality ones, but this restaurant never disappoints me.
Besides having a consistent quality, the presentation of each plate is also good, you can tell they put a lot of effort into it, even when you order from Grab.
Great fresh coffee and breakfasts to die for! Super friendly service and all dishes made fresh. We really appreciated the good, strong, hot cappuchino's along with breakfast bowls to start the day. Recommend the fresh bowls or muesli with home-made yoghurt (truly a delight). Recommend a visit!!
OK so... I'm writing this as we are devouring our dinner for the second time in a row and to be frank this is "THE" place to go for delicious food while you're near. ***you might want to travel just for this as well - _- ***
We ordered:
Pad Thai both chicken and shrimp. 5/5
Vegetable spring rolls. 5/5
Fried rice both chicken and shrimp. 5/5
Fried shrimps breaded. 5/5
Fish and chips. 5/5
Grilled shrimps. 5/5
Fish (don't remember the name but it's in the photos). 5/5
Chicken with Cashew nuts. 5/5
Tom Yum. 5/5
Curry shrimps. 5/5
Shrimps with tamarind sauce. 5/5
When it comes to pricing I don't think you can beat it.
AND to top it all the service is excellent and they accommodate requests with open heart. Ann is one super host.
Keep it up Ann's Kitchen (ขอบคุณ!).
We have a villa in Phuket and always search for local good food. If you want good Western comfort food Ann's Kitchen is the place to go! Piri piri chicken was the highlight. The chicken was soooo juicy they marinate over night! The hand cut potato chips was world class - simple is the best! Honestly, everything is good and very reasonable pricing. Highly recommend.

LITTLE PARIS, located in the heart of Boat Avenue, Phuket, offers a relaxing atmosphere and a variety of delicious French, Italian, and Thai cuisine. The traditional restaurant is known for its delectable signature French dishes and homemade pizza baked to perfection in an oven at over 300 degrees.

Little Paris is an absolute gem! The portions are incredibly generous, and everything we’ve tried has been super delicious. The mussels in blue cheese sauce deserve a special mention—they’ve officially made it onto our list of all-time favorite dishes.
The service is always warm and welcoming, which makes each visit even more enjoyable. If you’re planning to come in the evening, we highly recommend booking a table in advance—it gets busy for a reason!
A special thank you to our lovely server, Rose, for her kind and attentive service.

Really recommend this place for a lovely Thai meal. Service and ambience was excellent, our server mo was a delight even when my boyfriend knocked over his beer. Prices are similar to western restaurants at home but we went for a treat on a Saturday night and felt that it was worth it. Portion sizes generous we shared a starter and the chicken cashew and pineapple rice was delicious.
I had such a wonderful experience at Little Paris! 💕 The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the food is absolutely delicious, every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. It really felt like a little piece of Paris right here.
A special shoutout to Angel, one of the staff members, who made my visit even better. She was so attentive, kind, and always had a bright smile that made me feel very comfortable. Service like hers truly makes a restaurant stand out.
Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great food, warm vibes, and outstanding service. I’ll definitely be coming back! 🌸
One of my favorite restaurants in Phuket!
I’ve been here several times, and every dinner has been a truly enjoyable experience. The food is always delicious, made with quality ingredients and great attention to detail. The wine list is also worth mentioning well curated with excellent selections.
The owner, who is Italian, is super friendly and welcoming. To top it all off, there’s often a DJ set during dinner, creating a beautiful party atmosphere.
Weirdly, that lately I keep coming back to Little Paris.
And I think the restaurant is getting better & better. Honestly, in the past 2-3 years I wasn’t a fan of this restaurant.
However now I tend to want to go there for breakfast or raining dull day.
The vibes are super cozy and the staffs are very professional. They know how to serve food in A western style properly. I’m impressed with many things eg their baguette 🥖 & sandwiches.
Also 10/10 to all the piece of their comfortable chairs 🪑🥰
Little Paris is a really vibey spot and a great place to sit down, relax and people watch. The Thai food was excellent and full of flavour. They don’t hold back on the spice either, which was great to see, proper Thai spicy.
The pad Thai was the standout for us. Perfectly cooked and packed with flavour and was the must have dish for us.
There’s a solid selection of drinks and the staff were nice and friendly. The whole place has a bit of a scene to it, making it a fun spot to spend some time.
A great place to have a late night dinner. Well-balanced food in a spacious and cosy interior. The music 🎶 is a bit too loud sometimes, which makes it more difficult to have a good conversation. The mussels and lava cake were some of the most delicious ones I had so far. A great place!
Atmosphere is relaxing. Portion is generous. Food is authentic. Veal chop is super tender. Lily's service is caring and prompt. Downside is really lots of flies flying around for some reason given sitting indoor.

Restaurant
Siam Sunset Restaurant in Phuket is a delightful culinary gem that truly impresses. After a rejuvenating visit to Kara Spa, diners are welcomed into this cozy venue where the service is both friendly and attentive. The menu boasts an extensive selection of authentic Thai dishes, with highlights including their renowned seafood salad and baked shrimps served in an earthen pot. Guests rave about the freshness of each dish, as everything is made to order and tailored to individual preferences, including vegetarian options.
My family and I enjoyed the Thai food very much. Duck Red Curry is great, so is the Chicken Satay, Beef Hotplate and Fried Chicken. Recommended to come in group to try more dishes. Staff is really friendly too.

Dined at Siam Sunset by chance but was pleasantly surprised by how delicious and fresh the food was. Try the Deep Fried Melinjo Leaf salad, Steamed Seabass with Lime and Crab Curry Noodle and you will want more. Best of all, the waiter Chai was extremely helpful and service was prompt. Will definitely recommend to any visitor to Phuket and will certainly come again. Btw, they can also prepare Thai dishes for vegetarians. Yummilicious!
Of course. Here is a review for Siam Sunset Phuket based on your experience.
---
We were recommended this restaurant after our treatment at Kara Spa and it did not disappoint.
The food was excellent and served incredibly fast. We received our orders within 15 minutes of ordering, which was impressive. While many people seem to rave about their fried rice, our standout dish was the seafood salad. It was perfectly balanced – not too spicy, with a refreshing tanginess that really enhanced our appetite. The rest of the dishes we tried were also very good, and the portions were decent for two people to share a few plates.
What truly elevated the experience, however, was the exceptional service. Shortly after we were seated, the sun began to set directly on our table. Without us having to ask, a staff member immediately drew our curtain and proactively asked if we would like to move to a more comfortable table to avoid the heat. This small, thoughtful action was a wonderfully pleasant surprise and showed a real attention to guest comfort.
Overall, the combination of great food and attentive service makes Siam Sunset a solid choice. While the prices are on the higher side compared to a typical local restaurant, the quality and overall experience make it well worth it. We'll certainly be back.
This place is amazing. The food is delicious, I feel bad for the staff as they are “competing” with the big fancy chain restaurants in Porto Phuket across the road. But this place does the best Thai food in the boat avenue area! We’ve eaten here twice. It’s very cheap for the amazing quality
Came in the early 20 teens when it was open air and a local secret. New owners 7 plus years ago, renovated and the quality lives on. Big serves in many cases so don’t be put off by initial prices. Tom yum soup (small bowl) fed two at B220 +. A hidden gem not to be overlooked. Slow down, chill out, eat and relax. Well worth searching this one out.
We had a wonderful dinner at Siam Sunset Thai Restaurant in Phuket. Our group of 12 was warmly welcomed, and the entire experience exceeded expectations. The food was absolutely delicious – full of authentic Thai flavor and beautifully prepared.
The staff were very helpful, spoke English well, and were incredibly flexible in accommodating our individual needs, including vegetarian requests. Everything was freshly made to order, and they were happy to adjust dishes as needed.
The restaurant was clean, well-maintained, and had a relaxed, pleasant atmosphere. A special thank you to Chai, who mainly looked after our table. He was kind, attentive, and made sure everyone in our group was comfortable and happy throughout the evening.
Highly recommended for anyone visiting Phuket and looking for great Thai food with excellent service!
Highly Recommended!! Exceptional experience dining here. Best authentic Thai food we had so far in Phuket. Staff were very friendly and taking such a good care of us. They even brought us complimentary fruits. Price was reasonable comparing with the quality and the big portion. Will definitely come back here again next time.
Thank you!
Amazingly succulent food, fit for all who wants to try authentic thai food. Especially the fried pork belly. Fried to perfection and seasoned to taste. A little touch to it is the story behind Siam Sunset. Please do go and read it on the Menu 🤩🫡😗

Came here based on Google map reviews and they didn’t disappoint us.
Got a table by the pool with great view without making any reservation on a Saturday evening.
Staff are friendly, attentive and prompt. My partner and I both had the Australian Angus ribeye steaks, they were grilled to perfection, it came with 1 side and 1 sauce. While i couldn’t decide to go for the blue cheese sauce or the Thai nam jim jeow sauce, our server was so kind to offer me both without charging me.
They were both so tasty and i prefer the Blue cheese best. I had the Cheese spinach for side and it was simply delicious!
We were so satisfied with our dinner and the price is reasonable. Definitely recommended if you are around this area.
Let me start off by saying im not a foodie and have never really enjoyed food or understood foodies or why people get excited for food and I have eaten in alot of fancy restaurants. This place had the best burger I have ever eaten. I can't even begin to explain how amazing it was. I did also eat some of my daughters fish and chips kids meal which was also fantastic. It was fresh fish and I ended up finishing hers somthing I never do. To end a long story eat here its amazing
Came here with my family during the weekend. We made a reservation ahead without any problem through WhatsApp. Everything was great! The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The food options are quite diverse, there is a good variety of meat. Everything we ordered was very delicious! I would definitely recommend you going there in the evening as you can view beautiful sunset through panoramic windows.
Cut Restaurant, is the best in the phuket.
No doubts.
Food, service, treatment are great.
Amazing restaurant, the atmosphere by lake views sets the mood for the entire night. Food portions are huge! The meat dishes especially. Really recommend this restaurant if you are Boat Avenue
Great food, great sunset view 🌅 I highly recommend getting their grills and kebabs! They're run by a lovely Turkish guy who's very passionate about his food and it really shows through the flavour! 🥰 Perfect place for a romantic dinner date 🌹 Can improve on their pina colada, felt abit flat
A Sizzling Steak Experience That Will Leave You Craving for More!
I recently had the pleasure of dining at cut restaurant, and I must say it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. As a steak aficionado, I have high expectations when it comes to savoring a perfectly cooked piece of meat, and this restaurant exceeded every one of them.
From the moment I walked through the door, I was greeted by a warm and friendly staff who made me feel right at home. The ambiance was elegant yet inviting, with dimmed lighting and tasteful decor that created an intimate atmosphere, Overall, cut is a steak lover's paradise. The combination of top-notch service, a refined ambiance, and steaks cooked to perfection make it a true gem. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for a remarkable dining experience, I highly recommend visiting this restaurant. I guarantee that once you've tasted their steaks, you'll be left with an insatiable desire to return for more!

Smooth and Comfortable Airport Experience
Phuket International Airport is clean, well-organized, and easy to navigate. The staff is friendly, supportive, and efficient, which makes arriving and departing very smooth. Even though it’s not a large airport, that actually works in its favor less walking and quicker movement through the terminals.
There are plenty of food options, both Thai and Western, especially inside the domestic terminal near Gates 36–48. Prices are reasonable, and everything is kept clean. The airport also has a good variety of shops, from duty-free brands to local souvenirs and snacks.
Immigration can get a bit crowded, but the staff handles it well. Transportation is easy too, with cabs and shared taxis available right outside.
Overall, a surprisingly comfortable and convenient airport great for both domestic and international travelers.
Good for local airport, clean and have free wifi, changing station, and water dispenser.
The taxi charges from air port to town is crazy expensive, more recommend to call taxi by application will be more reasonable. You can use Uber, bolt and Grab.
However other than Grab, driver can't pickup inside airport and to walk to outside.
Other option to get in town, you can use public bus. It'll cost only 100 Baht per person.
Phuket International Airport is clean, organized, and easy to get around. Check-in and security were smooth, and there are plenty of shops and cafés to relax before the flight. Good experience overall!
Not the largest of airports but that was a positive, means you don't have to walk as much! Getting through the airport was very easy. As soon as we got out the taxi, one employee loaded all of our luggage by himself and helped us in.
The airport had a great variety of stores and food options. Nothing to complain about.
Its a small airport and it was clean and easy to navigate. Immigration is rush but staffs were very supportive. Affordable food options at the first floor. Cabs and shared taxi is available outside.
The airport is user-friendly, especially the departure section. A lot of food outlets and small shops are available. Toilets are also clean. Arrival section in the international terminal can be a nightmare sometimes, with many flights arriving at the same time.

I don't understand the hate that this Airport received apart from the total shops here and my delayed flight. Everything here is just perfect. The airport looks new and quite huge. It is easily navigated. All the custom and immigration processes went smoothly. It is just well organized. The plug socket and wifi also provided. The airport is clean especially the toilet. Muslim prayer room was also provided. The staff and officers are nice and friendly. Just that not much shop open here.
Hafizun M — Google review
A small airport big much bigger than hatyai one.
Get to the Krabi town, take minibus is 90b, less than half hour, straight drop off to your hotel.
To Ao Nang, it is just 100b.
Return to airport, you just need to call the phone number on the ticket, same prices, the driver will pick you up at your hotel.
There are few options of free WiFi, just need to sign up. Then you get 3 hours WiFi, speed is not bad.
Ais tourist SIM card is 300b for 7 days.
🎬2025.6.15/18
Krabi Airport is small but lovely, clean and easy to find people. All necessary signs were installed around the airport area. There are several shops, bakeries, restaurants, prayers rooms, café. Krabi Airport is not a shopping venue, so please don't expect to see any department store or duty free shops!
Krabi International Airport is small but efficient, with friendly staff and easy navigation. Security checks are smooth, and baggage claim doesn’t take too long. There are some restaurants and shops inside, including a few local souvenir spots. It’s a convenient gateway to southern Thailand with plenty of taxis and shuttle services outside. Clean, organized, and comfortable overall.
Spacious, well air-conditioned, clean (incl toilets). Good indications. Helpful staff. Big (and affordable) Thai and western food section at the end of the Departure hall. Both international and domestic flights are accommodated. Duty-free shopping is just getting set up (July 2025).
Several ATMs in the arrival hall, after going through immigration and luggage. In low season, many taxi touts and people are clammering for business, so be tolerant. Either use the regular taxi (booths near exit) or use Grab.
PA announcements are incomprehensible.
I love small international airports:)
You can find different shops, a small food court. There's a good café in front of gate 11. The only issue with this airport is far from Ao Nang or Krabi city
Modern airport, not huge but feels big for the number of flights. Baggage reclaim was quick, security check was not - there was a queue despite the airport not being busy. There are a few shops and food and drink options landside but not much once airside - would suggest only going through shortly before your flight. Toilets were plentiful but could have been cleaner.
New Renovation.
AirAsia check in is a separate area.
Eatery before and after Security.
Arrivals have plenty of Taxis.
Check price to destination & agree before hopping in
