Panwaburi Beachfront Resort

Excellent hotel. Great photo zones, polite staff, and amazing breakfasts. Outside the hotel, it's quite boring, so plan on relying on a scooter and the hotel itself.

The hotel is very clean and has no insects despite the abundance of trees. It's very suitable for families.

I stayed here for less than 10,000 yen per person. I booked a room on the first floor with direct pool access, and it was excellent. We could enjoy the pool until 9 PM, and the transparent boat was a lot of fun. There's also a pool on the rooftop. You can enjoy the pool in the morning as well. Information about the floating breakfast is provided during check-in. Perhaps because there are many Japanese guests, I noticed a lot of Japanese signage. The room was a bit humid, but not to an extent that it bothered me. It takes about an hour to get here from Patong Beach, but I think it's a hotel worth staying at at least once.

The accommodation is beautiful and offers great value for money. The price is good and the atmosphere is lovely. Every angle makes for a great photo.

The scenery was truly beautiful, and both morning and night were wonderful. The hotel staff were also kind and gentlemanly in their service! We had a lovely time!

The hotel grounds are beautiful, and there's a cool pool with boats, plus another pool upstairs. However, most people only stay here for one night, so there's a constant stream of guests checking in and out. Because so many people want to take a boat ride and take photos, it's impossible to get to a boat in the evening; they're always occupied. We stayed for two nights, which helped. Many guests check out before 12:00 PM, and new guests check in from 3:00 PM onwards. In that window between 12:00 PM and 3:00 PM, the competition for a boat is minimal, and you can enjoy a swim in a nearly empty pool. Overall, the concept isn't bad. The room was clean and had everything we needed. We didn't have breakfast, but we went to their cafe for dinner, and everything was delicious and reasonably priced. The only thing I can't understand is why they so often have semi-transparent doors for bathrooms and toilets here – there's absolutely no privacy! We really liked Ao Yon Beach; it's perfect for an off-season trip. You have to walk over some rocks to get to the main beach, but it's not difficult at all. There isn't much infrastructure around. You have to walk uphill or across the beach to get to 7/11, so staying for a long time might get a bit boring.

The weather was great, and the view from the pool was beautiful and very photogenic! It was a bit far from the airport, but it was easy to catch a Grab taxi, so we could get to the tourist spots quickly!

The rooms are clean, the atmosphere is good, the staff are super nice, the service is impressive, and they pay great attention to their customers. I highly recommend staying here when you visit Phuket.
