Hyatt Regency Phuket Resort

This is a review I would have wanted to see before going. Let’s start with the good: the resort is stunning. Very aesthetically pleasing the lights trees and structure. The resort is big so they have pretty little cold carts to take you around the resort that are on call by simply dialing reception. The staff is responsive which is a perk and everyone smiles and is kind. The attitude is a huge plus. You will like that. Now the bad: it will shock you how quickly the room will become completely wet if you turn off the air conditioning. Unfortunately the AC is turned on super low meaning ice cold. As a result difficult to stay in the room without a sweater and socks. The bathtub also wasn’t working properly (drainage) therefore after freezing at night can’t exactly heat up from a nice steamy bath. The shower is okay though If you learn the dials. So I opted for long hot showers but the bathtub was part of my rest time and couldn’t do it. There was no compensation for this events but The staff did offer to change the room but the only available room was deep down on one of the ground floors with not much light and lots of stairs and no view. I opted out of it. The beach: You should know if you think the beach is connected to the resort it isn’t. You’ll have to exit the resort and cross the road to get there. Make sure you carry shoes as it’s a rough sand beach. It’s not the smooth white sand beach I somehow thought it would be but it’s fairly on the cleaner side in comparison to others. If white find sand clean beaches are what you want this isn’t it. The beach is nice to look at from the room though. There is no free minibar etc like other five star restaurants offer so prepare for that. As it’s a resort it will also cost much more than a normal shop. So here is an honest review. Really nice staff,pretty views. Facilities are okay like casa boho was a nice bar. This is what I wish I read before going so I prepare my mind: I left earlier because I just couldn’t relax like I had hoped. Enjoy!!

We booked a family room, nice and comfortable stay. Breakfast was good buffet too. Staff friendly and we had to call buggy when we we want to go out from room due to slopes, service usually very quick after we call guest services. Good hotel!

Very nice resort with a good pool and great food options. Casa Boho - very handy for evening drinks. Unfortunately the gym was poor, especially for avid fitness fanatics who enjoy a workout on holiday. The service was very poor in places especially at breakfast, where it seemed routine to sit guests at a table then disappear before taking tea and coffee orders. Good hotel, but better options out there for sure.
