Kantary Bay Hotel Phuket

Probably the friendliest hotel we’ve ever stayed at. We arrived at 8.30 am expecting to have to wait until the afternoon to check in to the room, they had us in room and comfortable by 9am, breakfast at 9.30, just perfect. At reception the staff were on first name terms with lots of guests, and everyone had a smile on their face. Guests and staff. The room was great, little kitchen complete with a washing machine, fridge, hob etc. Nice pool, nice breakfast/ dining area. Beer and soft drinks available at really good prices. Probably even cheaper than the shop next door. Stunning sunsets from the balconies. We only stayed three nights, but plenty of other guests were staying for a month or more. It’s very quiet in the area, so once you’ve exhausted the local restaurants, maybe need a taxi to go further afield, but Thai taxis are well priced.

With serviced apartments and polite staff, the property is both affordable and comfortable. Although the property is at the end of the road at Cape Panwa and therefore away from the action at west coast beaches, use of the sister property’s white sand beach (Panwa Beach), including their in-house shuttle and beach towels, is just a minute or two away. The inclusive breakfast buffet was pretty good too, with some healthy choices, such as cut fruit, grilled potatoes, and soy milk. We stayed longer than originally planned! Kantary hotels are, in our experience (having stayed at other Kantary properties), a reliable organization offering spacious condo-style rooms with kitchens, bedrooms, balconies, etc., which are fantastic for families and long-stay tourists. At the Kantary, here at Cape Panwa, we swam at the beach during mornings and evenings (on higher tides only), lounged under the beach umbrellas provided, drank cold refreshing coconuts from the restaurant, and enjoyed the ocean view from the air-conditioned apartment, away of the hot afternoon sun. Evenings offered us time to eat or buy fruits from the many oceanfront street vendors adjacent to the property, visit nearby restaurants, or have high-quality deserts from the bright little Kantary Cafe near the hotel's entrance. This is all to say that the room, beach, food, and staff were beyond our expectations, and we are no strangers to tourism or Phuket, having both lived and worked in the tourism industry over many years. Note that the reservation manager, "Khun Bow", and "Khun Chat" at the front desk, showed exceptional hospitality!

it truly gave us a home away from home experience and hence we were able to get the rest & relax we needed. as it was our wedding anniversary, we were given a room upgrade & we loved the sea view from our room & even the swing that came along with it. hotel staff were also very helpful when we needed their help for the room have to add on that we had to super early check out at 430am for early flight, and staff helped at wee hours + packed bfast for us to bring along

We have stayed at the Kantar Bay Hotel for the fourth time and it is always a complete delight. The hotel is cozy, with its own special atmosphere. It has its own vintage touch. Great breakfasts, very calm, unobtrusive, but at the same time very friendly staff. I would especially like to mention the cleaning ladies on the 4th floor. They are just angels. And the girls at the reception - they all speak English well, are professionals, very hospitable. I would especially like to mention Kik and Jingreed. They are really helpful. The rooms are clean, cozy, comfortable beds and pillows, soft bed linen. I enjoyed the beautiful view from our balcony every day. Despite the fact that the hotel does not have its own beach, this does not affect the vacation at all. Firstly, the hotel has two swimming pools, and secondly, there is a shuttle bus that takes guests to the beach of the partner hotel.

We had an absolutely wonderful 7-night stay at the Kantary Bay Hotel Phuket from October 19th to October 26th. The location was perfect, offering stunning views and easy access to the beach and local attractions. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained, with spacious and comfortable rooms, and the facilities are top-notch. A huge thank you to the entire staff for making our stay so memorable, especially Kik and Nicha, who went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcomed and taken care of throughout our visit. Their warm hospitality and attention to detail made all the difference, and we truly appreciated their kindness and professionalism. We’re already looking forward to our next stay and highly recommend Kantary Bay Hotel to anyone visiting Phuket
