The Chava Resort

Really lovely staff, very helpful. Excellent food in the onsite restaurant.

Pros: Location is walking distance to Surin Beach - there is an odd ban on beach chairs at the moment. A short distance from Bang Tao beach too. Near restaurants etc (especially Audy's which has the best garlic pepper chicken). Breakfast included by the pool. Next door to the Twin Palms which has a gym with daily/weekly membership.

Fantastic

Pros: Great location close to the beach, restaurant good and staff friendly and helpful

Cons: A small playground for children would be nice

Pros: In general everything about the resort was good - the location to the beach and nearby shops and restaurants, the breakfast selection, the spacious 2 bedroom residence and the facilities within the residence and of course the friendly and helpful staff.

Cons: One side of the bed in one of the bedrooms was uneven.

Average

Pros: Property is great small Boutique hotel.Nice pool,nice restaurant.Big and comfy rooms.Reception staff great.

Cons: Our apartment was in the street,very very loud from traffic outside.You can’t sleep. The staff in the Restourant don’t understand English good.So when you call them to order the food or in the Restourant they pretend as they understand you to be polite and then mix the food order.The beach is not exactly in front of Hotel.You need to pass busy traffic street.

Look forward to going back to Phuket and staying at the same place.

Pros: The location was excellent. The rooms were large and comfortable. The staff was wonderful. Always smiling and very helpful. They allowed for late checkout as well.

Cons: There were some small issues with the air conditioning malfunctioning one night, and the internet going off, but nothing really meaningful.

Pros: Very pleasant surprise. Small property but very well designed, with a nice swimming in the middle and the buildings with rooms around it, but still with a lot of greenery and spacious. Family room was very large and nice. Good location for Surin and Bangtao beaches. Restaurant didn't open for dinner but many options not far from the hotel.

fantastic, will go again

Pros: spacious bedrooms with separate bathrooms, huge living room, very good size apartment

Pros: A comfy, clean stay with a good breakfast. Beautiful pool and 3-4 minute walking distance to the beach. Staff helpful and kind.

Cons: There’s no gym onsite, I believe you can walk to the hotel next door to use theirs. I’d say the hotel is more suitable for older children / couples. My young daughter had her foot stuck in between the ‘floating’ step at reception and badly grazed her leg so please beware of this.

Perfect boutique resort holiday

Pros: I had booked tickets to Phuket on a whim. I did a lot of research and decided on Surin Beach. I was after somewhere quiet but not remote. We were travelling with a teenager so wanted two bedrooms and some space. The two bedroom apartment was perfect for us providing indoor and outdoor spaces with a sea view. The air conditioning provided relief from the heat outside and there were times the ceiling fans were all we needed. Location was perfect, a short walk to the spectacular beach across the road. Staff were lovely, particularly from the restaurant. The food was amazing every time. The pool area was perfect. This is a professionally operated complex with great facilities. Easy access to the beach, local restaurants and shops.

Cons: There was no gym but you can use the gym at the resort next door.

Fabulous

Pros: fabulously convenient location. simple yet very comfortable.
