The staff were incredibly welcoming, attentive and kind. We really felt at home. The hotel is right on the beach and within walking distance from several restaurants and shops. The room was large and comfortable. The common areas were pleasant and well maintained.

The only small downside in my opinion is that the hotel restaurant seemed a bit overpriced. However, there are several alternatives close by, for either lunch at the beach or dinner in town.

Food was good, service - excellent, just the overall location and set up was terrific. That is the hotel, then the pool, restaurant and lounge areas, then the beautiful Kata Beach and behind you was mini downtown with pretty much everything else you'd want right there :)

You can't change the size of the rooms - yea they seem a tad small, but there isn't much room there so it is what it is.

The staff is realy friendly and help where ever they could The reception lady Pair went out of her way to make it special for us Mr X was also very friendly and provided good service

Drinks are a bit expensive

Loved the infinity pool and beach access. Not having to fight for sun chairs and umbrellas was really really nice while still having access to the beach

Food and drink prices were really spendy. Our AC went out and we had to transfer rooms. The new room was smaller, but came with pool access and a balcony that we didn't want, need, or use. It was offered as an upgrade due to the new room being priced more/night but the room and bathroom were significantly smaller and we really loved our original room. The square footage for the room was likely inclusive of the balcony.

The Boathouse is wonderfully located right on Kata Beach and close to some very good local restaurants.The terrace faces the beach and the bay. The staff were charming and cheerful and very helpful. Breakfast was great with a choice of local or western options.

We changed our room after 2 days because our view was blocked by a building. The bedroom was a bit small and the bathroom door design was not as private as it could be. Kata town itself is uninteresting.

Boutique heritage property with great size rooms, generous bathrooms and well serviced. Location is spectacular as the property has direct access to the beach. The property is in a cove area and if you do a return walk it’s only 3.7kms, then a relaxing swim in the ocean, walk straight back to the property for breakfast. Staff are always available to assist with beautiful smiles and nothing is difficult, their service is second to none. Loved the a la carte breakfast with plenty of fresh and tasty options…..the sunsets from the hotel are amazing!

Something to work on would be some lovely background music during the happy hour period and whilst dining.

What can I say? This is the Boathouse, probably the best hotel on Kata Beach and our favourite place to stay in Phuket. The freshly prepared breakfasts and dinners overlooking the beach, great facilities, helpful staff, pool set up, sunset views and beach location all add to the charm and pleasure of staying here. And let's not forget the fabulous food and beverages with great dining area. The rooms are spacious and well appointed with large comfortable beds and a decent TV selection for rainy days.

Our 3 day stay was too short!

Most of the staff is very friendly and accomodating. The rooms are fantastic, clean and well equiped. The gym is good and the private pool is great. Direct access to the beach. Terrific breakfast.

Some staff members are a bit suspicious and this does create a very uncomfortable admosphere. Eventually, after some feedback all was resolved by the manager of the hotel .

Best hotel ever. Staff were exceptional - friendly, helpful and went out of their way to help at all times. Dreamy location- the only hotel with a pool directly on the beach front. Incredible breakfast and great pool side cocktails. Luxurious rooms with fab air-con. Bottled water provided daily in the rooms and served with ice pool side when you sat down. Perfect if you are looking for a peaceful and more intimate sized hotel. We had the most perfect 9 night stay and would never stay anywhere else in Phuket. Thank you so much The Boathouse Phuket!!

The hotel is on the south side of Kata Beach - a good location on a beautiful beach with beautiful sunsets. We enjoyed the pool right on the beach and spent great evenings there. What stands out in this hotel is the restaurant and staff. The restaurant is excellent, both for breakfast and dinner - truly top notch, seating next to the beach. The staff are friendly and accommodating and try their best for guests to have a good experience. It's a small hotel so they know guests personally. We recommend this hotel, especially for couples.
