Hotels with Private Pool in Phuket

"The hotel is advertised as having a gourmet restaurant, but in my opinion the food did not quite meet gourmet standards. That said, we booked a sea-facing unit and the view was absolutely magnificent — very peaceful and calming. Kamala Beach in general is a quieter area, which we really appreciated. There is a shuttle service provided, but the timing is quite limited. Given the price guests pay for this hotel, it would be better to have more frequent shuttle services instead of fixed timings. That said, it only takes about 10 minutes to walk from the hotel to the main street where there are many shops and restaurants, so it is still manageable. One issue we faced was that there was no clear sign or button in the room to indicate housekeeping service, and as a result, we ended up not having housekeeping during our stay. The phone line in the room also needs attention, as there was noticeable disturbance noise when calling reception. Overall, it is a nice place to stay with beautiful views and a relaxing atmosphere, but there are some service and maintenance areas that management could improve further."

"Location wise its perfect. If you are an indian then breakfast will be sorted coz there are many indian options available. 7Eleven is nearby. Pating beach is walking distance.. Jungceylon is walking distance too. Rooms and services are good. Staff is polite and helpful. Really appreciated."

"A nice, clean hotel with a pleasant atmosphere. The check-in process was quick and smooth, which was a great start to the stay. Pros: The area is small but cozy and well-maintained, creating a relaxing environment. There is a swimming pool, and the breakfasts are delicious with a good variety of options. Cons: The pool is only open until 6 PM, which might be disappointing for some guests. Also, if you are sensitive to noise, it could be difficult to fall asleep."

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐½ (8.0/10)‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️ Overall, I would rate this hotel 8 .0 out of 10. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the environment was peaceful and enjoyable. The staff were generally pleasant, and the property itself provided a good experience. The environment has an awful smell too‼️‼️‼️‼️ However, the main reason I am not giving this hotel a higher rating is because of the floating breakfast experience, which was honestly disappointing. Guests are charged an additional fee of around 850–1,000 Baht for the floating breakfast, while a regular breakfast costs only about 350–500 Baht. For that premium price, I expected a much better experience and more value for money. The floating breakfast looks beautiful in photographs and is perfect for social media content. Unfortunately, it seems designed more for pictures than for actually enjoying a meal. The food selection was quite limited, and there was not enough variety considering the extra amount being charged. Another issue is that while trying to take pictures, the food remains exposed for a long time. In my experience, insects were attracted to the food, making it less enjoyable to eat afterward. Also, because the tray is floating in the pool, water can sometimes splash into the food and drinks. By the time you finish taking photos and videos, parts of the meal may no longer be appetizing. What disappointed me most was learning that guests who pay extra for the floating breakfast are not allowed to also access the regular breakfast option. After spending a significant amount on the floating breakfast, I felt there should at least be some flexibility or access to the standard breakfast buffet. Instead, it felt like I paid extra mainly for the photo opportunity rather than for a satisfying breakfast experience. My honest advice to future guests is this: book the floating breakfast only if your goal is to take beautiful pictures. If your priority is enjoying a good breakfast, the regular breakfast may provide better value for money. Apart from this issue, I enjoyed my stay, which is why I am still giving the hotel a solid 8.5/10. Improving the floating breakfast experience would easily make this a much stronger overall rating."

"A great hotel. They call themselves ‘The Oasis of Patong’ and they’re not wrong. Close enough to the madness so it’s within a 15 minute walk to Bangla Rd but far enough away that it’s nice and quiet to make a relaxing stay. The pool area is great for relaxing and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. We had a great stay and will be back."

"We recently spent a wonderful few days at Kalima Resort and had an exceptionally pleasant experience. The service truly stands out. We were able to check in around 1 PM, even though the official check-in time was 3 PM, which was a very welcome relief after our journey. All the hotel staff are incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. You can feel the high level of service and a genuine desire to make guests' stays comfortable. The breakfasts here are simply magnificent – some of the best we've had in Thailand. There's a huge selection of dishes to suit every taste: a variety of pastries, a chocolate fountain, Nutella and peanut butter, several types of meat, fish, sushi rolls, chicken shawarma, and much more. Everything is beautifully presented, and the dishes are constantly replenished; nothing runs out, even closer to the end of breakfast service. We stayed in a sea-view room, and this view was the highlight of our stay at the hotel. The panorama is so breathtaking that it feels like you're on an observation deck with a nearly 240-degree view. The glass balconies and floor-to-ceiling panoramic doors allow you to enjoy the sea even without leaving your room. The room itself is very cozy and pleasant, and the hotel grounds are well-maintained, green, and very photogenic. The pool is nice and comfortable, although the stunning views remained the main draw of the hotel for us. The location is also good: if you're traveling by scooter or car, you can reach Patong in just a few minutes. Walking isn't very convenient, but this wasn't a drawback for us. Kalima Resort left us with very fond memories. It's a place we'd love to return to for the amazing views, excellent service, and truly luxurious breakfasts."

"We booked a luxury sea view room and a pool villa, which are single-story bungalows nestled in the hills just around the corner from Patong and Karon beaches. However, the location also presented some inconveniences. Firstly, getting from the lobby to the rooms required calling the hotel's 'Tuk-tuk,' which meant waiting. If you walked uphill, even with good stamina, it would take about 6-8 minutes. Secondly, because it's built into the hillside and integrates with nature, there were more crawling insects and mosquitoes. I got quite a few mosquito bites, and at night, there were sometimes strange animal sounds outside. Luckily, I knew this beforehand, so I wasn't too scared. Thirdly, the property is a bit old, and the facilities definitely need renovation and maintenance. The air conditioning was so loud it affected my sleep. On the second night, I simply turned off the AC and used the ceiling fan before bed, which was quiet and not too hot. The dining here was pretty good; breakfast was ample, and dinner tasted nice! You just have to get used to shooing away the fruit flies. There's a path from the public pool leading to Karon Beach, but the downside is I got bitten quite a bit along the way. In summary, if you're looking for a relaxing hotel stay and beach time, this place is decent! But for going to lively areas, you'll need to book a ride-sharing service."

"The hotel has an excellent location, everything is nearby, but it's very crowded. My room faced the street, so it was noisy. The balcony was useless; there's a building right opposite, so you can't really sit out there, and there was nothing to sit on anyway, not even a drying rack. So, you might as well book a room without a balcony. I stayed during the low season, and the waves were big, so I went to Tri Trang beach, which has no waves and isn't far from Patong. The breakfasts were good, and the staff were friendly. Overall, it's a great place for an active holiday if you just need a place to sleep."

"The place was really nice and quiet. We were lucky as we stayed pretty near the main reception and breakfast restaurant. Breakfast was really good with a superb view. The staff were really helpful and friendly as well. Surprisingly not attacked by mosquitoes in this hotel as compared to the one we stayed 2 nights before."

"Very nice resort with the pools right from your room. The staff is exceptional, very friendly and hospitable, the breakfast is good and the location is ok, but keep in mind that you will pay between 150 and 200 baht for a Bolt to bring you to Old Town. You could rent a scooter nearby for 200 baht a day. The general cleaning could be better though, at least at the checkin."
