Kamala Beach Estate

Best staff ever. I left a very valuable item there and realized when I was already in Bangkok. The staff helped me find it and overnight ship it to my hotel in Bangkok. They really went above and beyond and I cant thank them enough. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! The resort was fantastic. Beautiful and clean. Very comfortable. Very quite and peaceful. 10/10 will stay again next time I am in Puket.

The location for us was perfect. We stayed here for 10 days in an ocean front apartment. We had our own private little beach right on our doorstep. The rooms were very clean and the self contained kitchen was handy at times. Some minor complaints would be that the hot water system isn't big enough as we would run out of hot water most days, which isn't a big deal in Thailand's climate but it would be a nice problem not to have. The shower also takes a long time to drain. As for the estate itself, the grounds and gardens are stunning and well kept and the main pool is fun to swim in. The staff are all lovely and welcoming. Warning - this place does not have a bar or restaurant anymore. If you were planning on sipping cocktails by the pool or wandering up to the restaurant in the morning for breakfast then think again. We were unaware of this until after we arrived. There is a restaurant just outside the estate if you didn't feel kike walking into town, we didn't try it though as it looked like there might be a few mosquitos as it is set amongst the jungle. Location wise, its about a 10 minute walk to get into town to all the restaurants and bars etc or there is a 7/11 about 1 minute walk if you need any of the basics. There is also a taxi rank directly out the front of the estate if you wanted to get a cab instead. Its about a 15 to 20 minute cab drive to Patong if you want to venture into that madness for which they charge 500 baht. Kamala Beach in general is very laid back, you don't get constantly harassed by street vendors although they are there if you need anything and there is a huge variety of restaurants, cafes, bars, tailors, dispensaries, market stalls, masseuse etc. Everything Patong has but without the lunacy or insane amount of people and traffic. Great for families, would definitely stay here again
