Pretty terrible, to be honest. I left early. Loud, construction next door. Ugly rooms, super dated. Kinda creepy, to be honest. Needs upgrades, bad. The area isn't the best, either. Nothing going on, at all.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Woraburi Resort. The room was nice, but there was a drawback. Our room was on the fifth floor, and the elevator only goes to the fourth floor. That means stairs every time you want to go someplace or to your room. The pool is an interesting shape (and basically 3 1/2 feet deep throughout), but it has not been well-maintained. Many tiles are missing or loose, leaving holes where the tiles should have been, and it doesn't appear that the tiles were ever grouted properly in the first place. The pool needs to be drained and re-tiled before being refilled. The restaurant is just OK, but there are several other restaurants within easy walking distance, so there is no problem. The breakfast buffet is a mix of Western and Asian. The first three days we stayed there, the housekeeper created towel animals (elephants, swans and turtles) on our beds, which delighted our daughter, but then they stopped making them, which disappointed her. If the creations had continued, she would have been totally delighted. The Resort has very easy access to the beach (just across the road). The beach chairs with umbrellas must be rented. There were plenty of good tours, and the tour desk was very helpful. I recommend the Fantasea Show, the island speedboat tours and the tour with the Big Buddha, baby elephant and baby tigers.

The property itself is a complete let-down. Photos don't tell the true story about this property, as the pool as chipped, cracked and completely gone tiles throughout, which you'll stub your toe on or hurt yourself on completely. The whole property has been going through a repaint but someone ran out of paint so half of it still looks old and weathered. Needs some serious TLC. Will provide photos as well. Please know that when you do book a room, they will put you in the smallest darkest room of all, you need to complain to them and they will move you. When they do, check the shower temperature, we dealt with freezing cold showers for two days until one day a leech came out of the shower head (not to forget that everytime you turn the shower on, it spurts brown mucky water first) then we complained about the temperature of the shower, they tended to have fixed this - but it wasn't a long term fix at all.

The property is in a great area and offers swim-out rooms, unfortunately instead of capitalizing on those strengths it has suffered under what can only be mismanagement. It is rundown, moldy, and infested with mosquitoes. Mosquitoes aren't 100% avoidable in tropical areas, obviously, however this place was infested. There were dead mosquitoes smashed on the walls of our room; there was trash outside in our balcony area on check-in; there were pool tiles missing on the steps from our room in to the pool (which could seriously cut someone); our room smelled of mold (much stronger than musty/mildew) and there was visible mold in the bathroom. I was in room 102 less than ten minutes and already my throat was scratchy and my eyes were watery. To address, management offered to move us a room over, however if you know anything about mold and reactions, moving one room over will not suffice. They sprayed for mosquitoes to address that issue, but the spray caused a terrible headache. I promptly found another place - a beautiful resort just doors down and for $50 less a day (and, bonus, no mosquitoes) - and I checked out. Unfortunately, our room was prepaid and there was no refund from this property and none from Expedia either. This is the only time I've ever had such a bad experience at a hotel that I felt compelled to leave a review to warn others. Stay anywhere else! Be weary of places that require prepayment. Expedia will not refund, no matter the severity.

We had a nice stay however this resort does need a lot of work. The pool has tiles missing, the spa was out of order, the gym does not have working equipment along with other things eg pool table only one out of 3 worked and table tennis had no bats and balls, One of the lovely staff went and purchased bats and balls so it could be used. Unsure about the bottled water left in room as some days we were charged and other days we weren’t and the others we went with said they were never charged at one stage I had 6 bottles and was still getting charged, on check out they tried to charge us for a missing tea spoon my guess is it would have been sent to kitchen as we had rooms next to each other and lots of room service around the pool, which was nice. We had no hot water but they fixed that when asked. If you can overlook all these things, which we did, it’s a nice place. Definitely get a room with pool access.

To the left side of the hotel was a flooded area that looked and smelled like sewage with a 10’ high pile of garbage . I also got food poisoning from the hotel . The beds are very hard and uncomfortable. Staff was very nice but the smells from the area and the food poisoning just killed the trip for me . It was also over priced .

The staff were friendly and always tried to meet our needs. The language barrier made this difficult sometimes but that's too be expected anywhere. The room was clean and had a nice view over the pool. Easy access the beach across the street. Included buffet breakfast was always more than ample and had great range

This is an old tired property, broken tiles in the swimming pool, spa was under " renovation", hotel lobby the ceiling falling, in general Woraburi needs a facelift. The front desk staff was doing the best they could but could not fulfill all obligations promised by the web site, food service staff very good as was the bell staff. One exceptional employee was Kate at the off site booking desk for tours, she went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed for our tours and always had a smile.

Had a pleasant stay nice and close to beach just being across the road close to to shopping and restaurants. Only a couple of problems our bed was a bit hard and not a lot of English speaking channels on our TV but would recommend this resort to other people

The hotels location is ideal. Right in front of the beach. Staff are really nice and they try their best to make it a pleasant stay. However, the water from the tub in our room kept coming out super yellow, my husband says is the minerals but in my opinion that was waaaayyy to yellow to only be minerals. Either way they couldnt fix it but they try very hard to do so. But what annoyed me is that they didnt even tried to change us to another room. But again my husband said that we would have the same problem in the other rooms. So beware of the water. The shower water was fine though. So who knows.Everyone was really nice though! And the pool is nice too.

Great location with a generally unhappy staff. The place seems to be in a state of disrepair. Pool tiles are missing. The showerheads blow water literally in every direction. The bars and restaurants are vacant. The hotel did have a few unique features that were nice - one of which was entrance directly to the pool from the suites.

This was the most disgusting hotel we've ever stayed in. It was old and in desperate need of a major renovation! There was mold all over the shower, the bed was extremely hard and the sheets were old and thin. It was very dirty - the room, the restaurant, property grounds, etc. The water pressure in the bathroom was a joke - the water in the shower and sink would just completely stop producing water while using them. And to top it off, the hotel staff was rude and unhelpful.
The location is great - just choose any other hotel in the area! This is a 2 star hotel at best!!!

We like the hotel, but found phuket way to busy for us, thus we shortened our stay by a day. We went to a much more laid back place .

Woraburi was the most awful hotel I have ever encountered. The room was damp and dingy. The pool was dirty and less than full. The bed was incredibly hard. NEVER AGAIN!
