SALA Phuket Mai Khao Beach Resort

The villa was spacious and cozy. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, and everything you could need was provided. The bathtub, private pool, and sunbeds were excellent for couples, and truly romantic atmosphere. Although we experienced a brief power outage, it did not affect our enjoyment, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hotel offered a peaceful and relaxing ambiance. The common pool area was well-designed and perfect for sunny day. The staff went above and beyond to deliver outstanding service, providing a truly five-star experience throughout our stay. We would definitely comeback again.

Thank you Sala for yet another amazing experience with you. We have travelled extensively and can honestly say the breakfast here is the best! The tranquil setting and service is second to none. From the most comfortable bed and exquisite linen to all the other luxuries. The Spa Thai massage absolutely amazing! Even though we’ve been here now 3 times we’ll come back and keep recommending to our friends. Thank you

I’m having to be a little harsh with my 4 out of 5 but that is because there have been some things this hotel let us down on. In the main it’s a good resort, well kept and with comfy rooms with all my ‘must have’ boxes ticked - such as ‘proper’ normal hangers in the hanging space, a free in-room safe, lots of water, great shower and very comfy bed with delightful bed sheets. The downside is that there is no real life or choice of alternatives nearby (there is a cluster of shops but they know the hotels are 5 star and charge accordingly) so you are stuck with high priced drinks. The buffet on our first night half board was cold and we didn’t particularly like the choice, so that was a bad start (thankfully just once a week) On departure we requested help with the cases and this didn’t turn up as requested meaning I hauled all the cases down a huge staircase only for them to turn up 10 minutes after we’d stated. Also the service in the restaurant is sooooo slow. Too slow. The view from any room is not great, in fact the ‘private’ open bathroom is not private at all unless you pull curtains which defeats the point? Also the doors to the balcony are difficult to operate and make noise in the night. The positives were the bringing of jugs of water at poolside, replenished during the day, also the dinner food (à la carte) was gorgeous and with huge portions. The breakfast is also incredible with a mix of buffet and à la carte. Entertainment was also good on a couple of nights - a DJ and a live musician. Some hotel ‘features’ like choosing your scent for toiletries and choosing pillows was a bit unnecessary but still nice. We only stayed 3 nights and the hotel was growing on us, but the suitcase nightmare when we left spoilt it - they were not busy. Same when we arrived, cases took ages and when you arrive you just want to get unpacked. Go quicker!!!!

5 night stay here, from the start to finish it has been amazing - lovely staff, delicious food and super comfy bed, even allowed us an early check in after a long flight here Tried yoga bootcamp and hired bikes - lovely 3.5km bike route around the lake directly behind Didn’t try the spa as the massage hut for one hour massage next door was only 500bht Very Short walk to two/three local restaurants don’t forget your torch Thanks to our lovely pool bar man and Guy for the activities We will be back

They have an amazing spa with some very good therapists. We tried the complimentary massages which were themselves very good but Master Sara and her stick massages were on another level. The rooms advertised as Villas actually have another room on top and some of them(like ours) were next to the main road with just a tall wall in between. You will hear all the traffic roll by if you sit in the pool area. Food was good with a decent breakfast menu and good options on both the grill and thai food. Though it rained on most days we were there, I liked their pool which was deep enough to do laps.

This is a fantastic resort hotel for couples, we got one of the garden rooms with its own pool and outside bath and shower, it rained for four days while we were there, which is unusual for the time of year, but it didn’t make any difference because we could just relax in our own garden. The staff here are wonderful and can’t do enough for you, special thanks goes out to the team in the restaurant, Tiger, Annie, and Bee who looked after our every need expertly and always made us feel very welcome. The resort feels very spacious. It’s right on the beachfront, but has a garden/lawn in between it and the beach which is lovely to stroll along as there are other resorts either side of you to visit. I would highly recommend Sala Beach to anybody

If you want a true reset, for time to stop, and experience effortless luxury; Sala Phuket Resort is it. Their friendly and memorable staff will accommodate your needs and help you make memories. And the food on property almost makes traveling the region for food finds unnecessary. Pro-tip: their breakfast buffet with inclusive ala carte choices will set you up for the day! And their vegan options rivals the world’s best stays. Go explore the property for some of the best picturesque atmospheres a resort can offer. (Nature-forward open luxurious bathrooms, spa and workout areas, to the multiple pool beachside amenities). No matter which amazing convenient sightseeing spots you checkout in Phuket, you can’t wait to get back on property.

As an older couple we found access to the room pool difficult, no steps. This also went for the main pool. The hotel is “modern” and is subject to form over functional in a number of areas The food offerings we’re excellent and we enjoyed our free cocktails and tapas

We stayed at Sala for 5 nights and enjoyed every minute of it. The staff was exceptionally attentive and friendly, the food was fantastic (breakfast was a particular highlight), and the whole property (spa, pool, communal areas, and room) was beautifully designed. We especially enjoyed taking advantage of the daily activities organized by Man and Guy (yoga, bike rides, etc.) and loved stopping by the Sala farm to see the chickens, ducks and goats (including 5 baby goats!) maintained by the resort. We would recommend Sala to anyone visiting Phuket and plan to return again ourselves!

Housekeeping should pay more attention when cleaning the room especially replenished toiletries after every guest checked-out. When we checked in, we have 2 new toothbrush packages but an opened comb package. During our stay, housekeeping put in new toilet roll but left it around instead of back at the wall, seems like they were in the rush.
