Panwaburi Beachfront Resort

A truly amazing hotel! Everything was perfect — the hotel is very beautiful, the pool is luxurious, and the natural scenery is stunning. The service exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend it without hesitation.

Staffs are friendly and very helpful. The pool is stunning and the drinks on the rooftop bar are so so delicious! Great location with the beach right in front

The view from my room on the third floor of Block 3 was great, and there’s a small beach just across the road. This resort is better suited for those who want a tranquil holiday, and don’t mind being a bit far from the town centre (around 30–40 minutes away) and over an hour from the airport, depending on traffic. I also agree with some of the comments about the lack of privacy — the balconies are very close to each other, and you can literally say hi to your neighbours just by turning left or right. My friends and I (a group of 8) didn’t get a chance to explore the surrounding area as we hired a van to get around Phuket. We also didn’t try the hotel breakfast, so I can’t comment on that.

We stayed at this property for a few nights, but unfortunately our experience did not match what is presented online, especially on Instagram. Due to the strong promotion and well-edited photos, we decided to book, but if we had to choose again, we would not return. One major issue was that the toilet and shower are located directly in the room, without any separation from the sleeping area, which was very uncomfortable and offered no privacy. Cleanliness was acceptable but nothing more than average. Breakfast was reasonably varied, although some items were repetitive. In the morning, the dining area felt overcrowded considering the number of guests. The beach across the road is wild and not very appealing. A better beach can be reached after a 10-minute walk past the rocks, but it is still a wild beach. There are no restaurants nearby, so a car is needed and walking is not recommended for people with mobility issues due to a very steep uphill road. The only real highlights were the infinity pool and the surrounding vegetation, which look nice but do not compensate for the other downsides. Overall, we would not stay here again. This experience taught us to rely less on social media presentation and to take negative reviews into account, even when they are fewer.

This is the kind of place you don't ever want to leave. The pictures don't do it justice. The staff is friendly and very helpful. I loved staying here
