  • We stayed at this hotel because of the location. It was the starting point for the Laguna Phuket International Marathon. It is also the racekit collection centre and marathon expo.

    Our balcony opens up to the beach. So, we get to be serenaded by the waves to sleep at night. The room is spacious and elegantly decorated. It was a pity that my stay was too short and I didn't get to enjoy the facilities at this five star resort.

    Unique Qualities: We love the resident elephant. She can be seen wondering around in the resort compound with her mahout (elephant driver). She is a bright elephant and know how to pose for camera. Very friendly.

    Aloha Villa: Good Value For Money
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Satisfaction:
  • After a luxurious stay at Laguna Beach Resort, we moved to Patong Beach where all the happening things are.

    We booked Aloha Villa through a tour agent. Due to low season, the price has dropped to 600 Baht per room (no breakfast), which I think it is very good value for money.

    The room is clean and cosy. Thank God for the satellite TV as I was "grounded" by the torrential rain one morning.

    Location-wise, this place is right smack Patong town. Few minutes walk to Jungceylon shooping mall, beach, Bangla road etc.

    I would stay here again if I ever come back to Phuket.

    Unique Qualities: Facilities:
    • Air conditioning
    • Hot and cold showers
    • In room refrigerators
    • Laundry service
    • Tour programs
    • TV. Satellite program - Very important during low season when it rain)
    • International telephone service
    • 24 Hour Security
