Hotels in Bang Tao Beach, Phuket

The hotel room is spacious - superior garden view got 2 queensize bed per room. Not very fancy as it was upgraded from old design, but comfortable stay. Laundry drying rack is also handy, our wet clothes dries quickly with the rack under the sun. Kids club, kids pool are quite nice. Food at Isla restaurant is very tasty, though need to wait quite a bit. Here comes the downside- bought the All-inclusive package, but was informed part of the days are not covered, had to call trip.com to coordinate and clarify. In subsequent days, we were asked several times to make payment for our meals, and were given different menus to order. Looks like the hotel is not very mature in providing all-inclusive services as compared to other operators, the communications among staff kinda screwed up… i had to keep showing purchase voucher to explain to different staff. Overall, it was a great stay, my family enjoyed very much.

Great hotel and a fairly good location. Overall the hotel is lovely but the food was really lacking but because we had a car it was easy to get around to eat. The service was excellent and the overall hotel amenities were good. I would recommend renting a car for the stay then u can explore the gorgeous beaches around. Would recommend to stay here assuming they have fixed their kitchen challenges!

I stayed here for another two weeks. I have been to Laguna for 5 times in the past 2 years. The room is very big. Now I prefer apartments when I go out. They are large and have kitchens. It is next to the golf course and has beautiful views.

We loved the location- it was a pleasant place to rest on the beach and beside the pool. When we were there guests were mostly older and nice, which contributed to our overall experience of the place- good place to have a quiet rest. Room was really nice, comfortable bed, nice balcony. It is around half hour from the main Patong area, and in the range of 10min you have amazing beach clubs for daily chill or parties- Catch, Maya, Caffe de Moar, and Carole Diem.

The best hotel we have ever been. The services are incredible, from every part. You can’t any default from their quality. Never experience that before. Want to return back very soon. This is the best of the best.

The hotel is situated right next to the beach, so we got to wake up to the sound of the waves every morning. However, that also means the hotel is located quite far away from the entrance of the laguna resort area, so it is not very convenient to access local shops/ street food stalls outside of the resort area on foot. Shuttle buses are available but limited. Fortunately some of the massage shops nearby provide free shuttle service back to the hotel so it made up for it. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast options are limited, but the food changes everyday and were fairly good. The pools are not very big, but it was not too crowded and has a slide which was fun for kids and adults alike. Sunset view was magnificent. Overall, a very nice stay.

We stayed for 2 nights at Movenpick resort Bangtao beach. A family of 5 adults, 4 children and 1 infant. Their 3 bedroom apartment has a big living space for our children to play around and for the adults to have meals. Overlooking the pool and it was a short walk to the pool, lobby and towards the entrance to the beach. Room is comfortable and service is excellent. Very kid friendly but kids club is a little dark. The murals on the walls were hand painted so it was a beautiful kids room. but the television was not working so at times when the kids are tired from playing with the toys, they were easily bored. There wasn't much interactive activities available in there also. There was horse riding right infront of the hotel so it was convenient too. Halal food was abit hard to find. The beach restaurant in front has nice food but we had to fight off many flies the moment the food came and it made our experience a little less pleasant especially with young kids and infant around. The next time we ordered food, we packed it to have in the room to enjoy instead. There wasn't many shops around and we had rented a bike to head to the shopping mall instead. Would have been nice if the hotel provided shuttle service to the shopping mall. Overall, nice hotel but I may not be staying there again next time. Will explore other options.

I was pleasantly surprised to stay at Blu Monkey these few days. There are 7-11, Boots Massage and many restaurants around. It is very convenient. The hotel is newly opened. The room is very clean and has a small balcony. The soundproofing is also good. The bed is quite comfortable. There is a parking lot downstairs. The front desk staff are very friendly. Any items you need can be delivered by phone. There is a swimming pool and bar on the top floor. The most important thing is that it is very cost-effective to stay in such a new hotel at this price. The lady at the front desk said that a shuttle bus will be opened to travel between the beach and the hotel in the future. I look forward to staying here!

We chose the hotel as the location for a long awaited family reunion with my husband’s family as they have a huge range of activities we felt would suit all the family. The hotel is in varying stages of renovation and upgrading which meant two of the restaurants were out of action which we were informed of upon our arrival. Our ‘grande’ room was also one which hasn’t yet been renovated and after 24 hours we realised that there was some mould in the room and our clothes and the bedding felt damp to the touch as well as the room smelling musty. The rooms of our family members had been renovated more recently and didn’t have any issues. I received an email for a ‘during stay survey’ and shared my feedback accordingly. I can’t fault the hotel’s response which was to contact me the same day and request to meet with me. I met an assistant manager, Joe, who was very helpful and we ended up moving rooms to a fabulous pool side room as well as receiving an invite to the excellent Thai buffet a their Baan Talay restaurant. I was genuinely impressed at the clear desire to receive feedback and make improvements. We’ll be returning some time in the next year and I look forward to enjoying the newly refurbished restaurants which were out of action this time. The breakfast buffet was varied and there was a huge range of complimentary activities which we didn’t get to try much of this time but look forward to on our next stay.

Stayed for 8 nights in this hotel with my wife. Excellent hotel overall. Very clean indeed, staff very helpful and nothing is too much trouble. They open doors for you as you enter reception, take you bags to your room, help sort car / moped hire etc, The room was very clean and well appointed. Bath and beach towels are provided and they change these as frequently a you need. They also provide all the usual essentials including shower gel, shampoo, toilet paper, bottled water every day. Kettle, hob, large sink and basic utensils, glasses, cups etc were all provided. Also an iron and ironing board as well as a clothes drying stand. The big kitchen sink is easily bug enough to do clothes washing in. Room service was excellent each day. Balcony size on normal rooms was slightly small, especially as was shared with two large air conditioning units (all balconies appear the same) so this made the balcony cramped, noisy and hot when air conditioning was on. Breakfast was provided in the adjoining restaurant. This was excellent offering fresh hot and cold food, eggs made to your liking (fried, scrambled, omelettes, etc), bacon, sausages, fruit, bread, croissants, etc etc. Seemed to have everything included plentiful supply of juices, coffee, tea, etc. Most things self-service but the staff were on hand to help and to clear used dished. The location of the hotel means it is a 15 minute to the beach and 15 minutes to the main restaurant area known as Boat Avenue. Fortunately the hotel runs a shuttle bus service twice an hour to both locations and back until 9.10pm. Would be nice if slightly later coming back from Boat Avenue, but taxis and tuk-tuks were on hand although these aren't the cheapest. The main local beach is Bang Tao beach. This is lovely. Very clean (as everywhere seems to be here), soft white sand, gentle shelving into the water with no stones or rocks. Shame about sea lice the bite / sting in the water but they are everywhere in this part of the world depending on time of year and they are a very minor irritation. Also good availability of sun-beds as well as beverages from the beach shacks. Lots of fresh water showers and there is parking next to the beach as well as toilets. Boat Avenue has plenty of nice restaurants - see my other reviews if you want to see where we went and what we thoughts. Lots to choose from. Most restaurants seem to slow down food service after 9.30pm and this is not a clubby resort. Was just right for us though as there were plenty of bars and some with live music (check out The Mexican bar and restaurant). Wine is not cheap here and starts around £30 a bottle - although some could be found around £25. We stuck to beer with dinner. There is also a handy large supermarket selling everything you could need and is right by taxi station and open until 10pm. Final top tip about this area is to visit on a Friday night if you can as the street market is great with street food and live music. Easy to hire cars and
