Some rooms have a street view, and the Standard Room looks onto the mountains.

Children aged 2 to 6 stay free when using the existing bedding, and infants up to one year old stay free on the same terms. Extra beds may be requested directly from the property, and a baby cot or crib may be requested too, subject to availability.

For food and drink, the property has a bar, a coffee shop and room service, and a continental breakfast is available. The spa, the sauna and massage are also offered on site.

Parking on site is free, and there is more parking nearby. Free Wi-Fi covers all rooms, and Wi-Fi is also available in the public areas of the property, so the connection is there whether you are in your room or elsewhere on site.

Kata is a beach area on the west coast of Phuket, facing the Andaman Sea, with a relaxed pace by day and a lively evening scene around the walking street. It is a good fit for those who want a beach stay with places to eat, massage shops and night markets nearby, rather than a secluded resort. The property sits in the Karon District, so the beaches of both Kata and Karon lie close to the rooms.

Kata Beach is 450 m from the property, and Karon Beach, a long sandy stretch, is 950 m away. Kata Noi Beach is 1.9 km away. The Phuket Big Buddha, a large white seated statue on a hilltop, is 1.5 km away, and Chaithararam Temple (Wat Chalong), one of the most revered temples on the island, is 4.7 km away. Getting around usually means a taxi, a songthaew or a scooter, and a taxi or car makes the trips to the temple and the Big Buddha easier, since both lie further from the beaches.

A good day could start on Kata Beach in the morning, continue to the Big Buddha and Wat Chalong in the afternoon, and finish with a meal and a stroll through the Kata Walking Street Night Market, which is close to the property. Karon Beach makes a good alternative for a second beach day.
