My wife and I recently spent 10 nights at the Bandara Phuket Beach Resort to celebrate our anniversary, and our experience was wonderful. Upon arrival, we were touched by a thoughtful gesture left in our room by the hotel staff, setting a warm tone for our stay.
While some reviews criticize the hotel's location, we found it ideal. This was our third visit to Thailand, and we love this area for its tranquility, far from the hustle and bustle of Patong. The resort is a 20-25 minute drive from attractions like Old Phuket Town and the Naka Night Market. It boasts direct access to Ao Yon Beach and is just a five-minute walk from the picturesque and lesser-known Khao Khad Beach. The neighborhood is well-serviced with excellent restaurants, bars, massage parlors, and taxi services. Additionally, there's a 7-Eleven conveniently located less than five minutes away on foot.
The hotel staff were incredibly friendly and eager to assist. One memorable instance was when I needed to scan and print some work documents; despite being busy with other guests' check-ins and check-outs, the reception staff were extremely helpful. A special mention goes to Sa from Housekeeping, who went above and beyond to ensure our room was immaculate and surprised us with delightful little gifts (photo attached).
Our room featured a partial sea view, which was fine since we didn't plan to spend much time indoors. The room itself was spacious, clean, and equipped with an excellent air conditioner. The pool area was well-maintained and offered stunning views, and the Flamingo Beach Bar was a pleasant spot to relax.
The check-in and check-out processes were smooth, even at 4 AM when we departed, thanks to the accommodating and friendly staff.
Overall, given our love for this serene and beautiful area, we will definitely return to Bandara Phuket Beach Resort.
With panoramic Andaman Sea views, a pristine white sandy beach at your doorstep and a range of on-site facilities, you can be assured of a pleasurable and relaxing stay.
Located in Panwa Beach, a 4-minute walk from Ao Yon Beach, V Villas Phuket, MGallery provides accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a fitness center and a garden.

The room had an amazing view of the entire pool. The pool itself was very nice. The room had very good AC and running hot water. The room also came with coffee, pop, and snacks free of charge.

Very disapointing I came with high expectations and they were not fullfiled:
1. The staff at the front desk were not friendly at all. I arrived after a long flight to Thiland and hardly a smile from any of the receptionists.
I was looking for some attractions to do and was looking through their book for about half an hour trying to decide what to choose. No one aproached or tried to help or offer advice. That happened twice.
2. It was my birthday, and a family member from
US waned to order a surprise cake for me. He called me up to ask if I got it, I had no idea what he was talking about, aperantly they just left it in the room fridge without notifying me at all + did no add the note he asked to print for me.
3. When I arrived I asked where can I change money. The receptionist said "turn right and walk 10 minutes" , the problem is after you start going right, there are 2options of turns and no one to ask as there is litrelly nothing around. They could be a bit more specific..
4. I had some ants in the room+ 2 baby spiders. I understand this is a tropical island and yet this is a 5 star resort.
5. There is no gegi milk option in the restaurant
for coffee. Only cow milk. I woul think in 2023 there ould be at least one other option for vegans.
6. There is more but I made my point..

My wife and I rate this beach experience as excellent for swimming (but not for surfing!), and although best not to swim at lower tides due to the exposed reef, medium and hight tides are excellent. It's safe , protected from the surf, and clean for kids and beginner swimmers. Best things are the great service provided by the KANTARY hotel (by a covered vehicle), departing every 15 minutes, and the free towels (for Kantary guests) and affordable restaurant at the Panwa Beach, located just over the hill.

Panwa Beach is very peaceful, away from the crowds, but not dead. There are people walking along the beach and a handful of bar/restaurants along the shore, but it isn't too loud or crazy at night. A nice peaceful getaway. As for the swimming, maybe not the best as the ground under the water along the beach seemed to have a lot of large rocks and other items in it. I wouldn't exactly recommend it for swimming. But for relaxing, boating, getting a few drinks, it's great. My recommendation would be to stay at a resort/hotel along Panwa and renting a car so that you can drive to other beaches for swimming, such as Ya Nui beach.

There was a small beach close to our apartment which was located next to Panwa Cape Viewpoint. This beach is very private, small but beautiful. Another bigger beach which is called Panwa Beach is close to the hotel Cape Panwa Hotel. There is regular free shuttle bus from Kantari Hotel to Cape Panwa Hotel, which is provides daily every 20 minutes.

Staff were very friendly , my room on the first njgt had a massive leak in the ceiling - so had a night of dripping sounds onto the floor. I requested a new room the next morning and was moved to a similar room ( with a less good view but no complaints there it was dry so that’s what counts).
Generally found the resort in need of a big update - looks and feels very dated.

Ao yon beach is small, peacefull, quite area.
Ao yon beach is small, peacefull, quite area. Sea experience 9/10 but dont forget to take sea shoe there is little amount of rock in the sea... beautifull beach and view... rent a longtail boat from the Village people for the islands around..
The team at X10 Suites Panwa are so friendly, and full of smiles. Shout out to Jira and Jason the driver for being so helpful. The views are just perfect from your room; beachfront and the pool is awesome. There is a laundry service or you can do it yourself. The rooms are clean and lots of food deliveries via the Grab App can be made to the hotel as there is no restaurant on site.
This is the only property that is well maintained and well kept, look for no other - this is the place to be when you’re in Panwa Beach.
The hotel was fantastic!!! One of the best experience we ever had in Phuket will return on next trip. Situated on a beautiful mangrove beach area with stunning sea view. Great get away from the busy crowd and experience full relaxation. The room rate was also great value with breakfast included. Room was spacious and clean with bath tub and small outdoor patio. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return. Thank you for such great hospitality and superb service.
The pool was beautiful, the beach could have used more maintenance in front of the property, we found broken glass and garbage, which I think the hotel staff could’ve taken care of relatively easily. The breakfast was wonderful, and the staff were great! We also would’ve liked a small table in our room to dine at, there was room for it, and the light fixture was there for it, which we kept bumping our heads into, but the table wasn’t there.
great staff and service enhanced our stay and made it much better ( I appreciate each of Miss Poon and Kwan, Yui, Ann and Grace for their warm welcoming they made my stay wonderful and comfy 💗 ) , In addition, the beds were comfortable, view was amazing. The beach & the pool where clean and fully facilitated.
About the hotel location, it takes 20 min to the old town and central mall , 50 min to Patung beach, 1 hour to the airport.
The location is good, it is far from the city and party people, but yet close enough. Directly at the sea shore, and they have kayaks for free you can use when the tide is high.
The hotel is in a beautiful park with a lot of animals and flowers. It is almost like living in a botanical garden.
Breakfast is simple but good. The hotel never appears overcrowded, that's great and staff is really cute and attentive. Pool is great!
Everything.. this hotel couldnt of done enough. Very helpful and caring staff especially Toy the assistant manager she's been a amazing!
Breakfast was good alot to choose from.
Amazing views with very comfortable sun loungers.
The rooms are always clean.. Plenty of towels.
Easy access to other restaurants only walking distance and a 30 minute drive to phuket old town definitely recommend.
If Instagram had a hotel, this would be it,. If you are an Instagramer then yes come here and fill your stories/reels, it's the place to be in Phuket. If you are annoyed at people setting up Instagram shots and asking complete strangers to arrange a shot like it's there wedding then run, go somewhere else. Look it's looks great and feels great.... kind of like an Instagram reel...
Room was awesome, beach view balcony, breakfast was great. It's far from town. Shuttle services twice a day. Transport is really expensive to the hotel from anywhere. From patong Beach tho really expensive. Staffs are friendly
Beautiful setting, marvelous beach and beach restaurant, comfortable room with nice views, very professional and polite staff.. Excellent breakfast! Shuttle to/from Phuket town very convenient.
