Kamala Regent Residence

The rooms at Kamala Regent Residence run from a one-bedroom apartment to three-bedroom suites, and several have a private pool or a view over the garden or the mountains. Rooms can have air conditioning, a seating area, an in-room safe, a coffee and tea maker, a microwave, a refrigerator and a balcony or terrace.

Bed set-ups vary by room, and some three-bedroom rooms combine single, queen and king beds. Rooms sleep up to seven guests, and bathrooms can have a shower, bathrobes, toiletries and a hair dryer.

The apartment has an outdoor and an indoor swimming pool, a children's pool, a playground and a garden. A fitness centre sits alongside a spa with sauna and massage treatments, and there is 24-hour security.

Food and drink are served by a restaurant, a bar, a coffee shop and room service, and there is a kitchen on the property. Transport services include an airport transfer, a shuttle service, a taxi service and car hire, and tours can be arranged. Free parking is available on site, free Wi-Fi covers all rooms, and Wi-Fi is also available in public areas. Daily housekeeping, laundry service, luggage storage and safety deposit boxes are offered too, and facilities for disabled guests include wheelchair access.

Kamala is a relaxed beach village on the Phuket coast, built around a long sandy bay with local restaurants, small shops and a slower pace than the island's busiest resort area. The beach is a short walk from the apartment, and the village is calm enough for a beach holiday with easy access to the rest of the island.

The sights are spread out across the area. The Kamala Night Market is 750 m away, with evening stalls selling food and goods, and Phuket FantaSea, a large theme park with an evening cultural show, is 1 km away. Patong Beach, 4.7 km away, is the place for bars and nightlife, and the Chaithararam Temple, known as Wat Chalong, is one of the island's most revered Buddhist temples. Phuket International Airport is 18.3 km away, and the apartment offers an airport transfer and a taxi service.

A relaxed day could start on Kamala Beach, continue with the Phuket FantaSea show, and finish at the night market. For a longer outing, the Big Buddha in the hills near Chalong is a hilltop statue with wide views over the island. Afterwards, the pools and spa at the apartment offer a quieter way to end the day.
