Nice staff. Stunning lobby

Pros: Loved staying at this location. Nice and quite and relaxing. Beautiful beach across the road which was perfect for swimming. Positioned between two local Thai restaurants and a few market stalls nearby made for good eating/drinking. Staff were helpful with any requests.
Cons: We were not fans of the buffet breakfast as the food was quite flavour less. There is a beautiful pool and swim up bar over looking the beach however it is not used/opened.
Overall would definitely recommend to others as it is a great location if you want to relax without the hustle and bustle and awesome food places within easy walking distance.

Beautiful resort with unique and characteristic Thai architecture which was very appealing. It seems however that the upkeep has dwindled as of the past few years as the exterior needs a facelift in the shape of new paint and rehabilitation of the pool areas (just a little). The staff was very courteous and helpful and the dining was delectable and portions, generous.

This hotel has the potential to be a great hotel but unfortunately it fails in so many areas. The staff don’t speak English therefore translation can be a problem.
Food - it’s okay and basic but only caters to a limited audience. Advice do not ask to change a dish as they will get confused about what to change and give you anything - asked for mushrooms on a cheese pizza got carrots and cauliflower not sure how that happened. And don’t bother eating here if your a vegetarian
Staff are polite at times but don’t catch them towards the end of their week as they get really snappy and to add to that you will have to ask the cleaners to clean everything and change the bed covers as they do not it without being asked.
The hotel is located so far from everything you will pay a fortune in cabs unfortunately no good words to say about this place apart from the male drivers who take you up and down to your room are very polite and sweet

Great location by the beach but limited food options nearby. Recommend stopping at the convenient store before arriving at the property for snacks and drinks because there isn’t a store close by or on property.
Fun to watch the airplanes land over you just a mile away.

Amazing resort with friendly, helpful staff. Beautiful pools and beach. Thai massage was outstanding. The staff remembered us and went above and beyond. Special thanks to our housekeeper who was awesome and we appreciated the Christmas morning gifts. Highly recommend.

We were very impressed that there are still parts abandoned after the tsunami. Almost 20 years have passed, they should clean the street and start again because the panorama is very beautiful.

A beautiful hotel, which is sadly looking tired and needs work. There is so much to like- friendly, helpful and happy staff; beautiful pools; lovely surroundings (not the hotels fault there are derelict buildings in front of it); beautiful reception area. But there are many things which let it down. Lift was covered in hand prints and not cleaned in the two weeks we were there; price of food and drinks, especially bottled water is extortionate (10THB in supermarket - 60 THB in hotel); peeling paint in places; not enough sun beds and umbrellas around the pools. It needs a good shake-up if it wants to remain a 4star hotel.
However, would we stay there again? Yes we would! Despite its faults we enjoyed our two weeks and already miss the beautiful bird song, the frog chorus, Koi Carp and smiling faces of the staff.

We arrived at night and when we saw the hotel entrance all lit up I said, OMG 😳, this is beautiful. Check in took ~ 15 minutes. Walking into our room took our breath away! Staff friendly & helpful and watching the sunset on the beach was awesome! Cheap Tuk-Tuk rides to nearby stores and outside restaurants. So fun to ride in them!!

The photos online give a false sense of how the property presents itself. The room, although very large wasn’t very clean and had an overwhelming smell of mildew like the air conditioning filters were damp and had probably never been replaced. The mood lighting gave a nice atmosphere but it was difficult to see in the bathroom space, was impossible to apply makeup in the dimness. The pool area and common spaces were run-down, water features not working were dank and all round the service disappointing.

Property is on the quiet part of the island and is not party town which is nice, but this makes relatively long trips for excursions.
The beach is close across the street very nice, and a nice walk to the Siriat National Park. The ruins of the Tsunami damaged building remain, ugly. The inner walk of the hotel is nice with a nice view of the swamp along the walk beautiful. Pool is awesome and beautiful.
Hotel restaurant is slow, expensive and runs out of menu items. Breakfast is good but eat off property for lunch and dinner.

Amazing hotel, beautiful/friendly/helpful staff, good location if you are looking to get away from the hustle and bustle. Beautiful quiet beaches just across the road.

This hotel needs serious maintenance. Restaurant has good selection of Thai dishes and very friendly staff. However, breakfast buffet was very disappointing where the bowls and fruits were empty whilst the staff were mainly watching without filling them up! Got the impression that they have been told to do so…something that you barely see in Phuket.
Overall average rating, we had better experience with the same rates in other hotels, so can’t be about the lower rate per night.

Great experience staying at mai khao palm beach. Excellent service and nice atmosphere. Breakfast was great too. Many options to choose. Right next to the beach and close to the airport. Really recommended.

Amazing facility that the kids loved, a long way from one end to other but as there is a pool that ran the complete length the kids didn’t mind. Very friendly staff in a lovely position

Having the pool access room was fantastic as I could cool off regularly. Very clean room, lovely decor, Suits getaway where you want to just relax and do nothing as it is situated where there are limited amenities.
2.0
Very poor maintenance of the building. Expedia says 4.5 star, but feels like 3.5 star hotel. Extremely long hallway, takes over 5 minutes to go to lobby or dinning area. Too far from everything, ride to airport is far even though is only couple of miles away. There is an empty shell building that looks terrible. Photos are misleading.

The resort is absolutely beautiful. Our room was clean and large and comfortable. The restaurant for dinner was wonderful. Good variety and quality. Service was excellent. Breakfast was incredible and quite varied. When we were ill the staff helped us out. The laundry was excellent, and we found our clothes delivered to our room, ironed and hung in the closet. Extra help with scheduling a trip and transportation back to the airport. The beach is almost deserted, and not very clean. Water is warm. The pool was warm and clean and very relaxing!

The staff was so sweet and the hotel was lovely!! The pool bar was one of our favorite hangouts. Breakfast was delicious and their green curry is spectacular.

Property is beautiful however distance from anything is far. Because of this there is No one at hotel. Lack of people equal lack of care of things .. breakfast quality was very very low and i only eat dinner 1 time in open air Hot dining room. I ended up getting a stomach bug where i can only assume from food quality and ended up eating fried rice in my rooms for 4 days ... i ended up changing locations when i felt better and lost remaining 10days booked at hotel due to "policy"

The hotel would be great, if it was...finished. The rooms are done in a very nice style, and level of comfort. But 80% of them are with no sea-view in spite of the first line. I guess the construction of the second line of buildings was unfinished... On the other hand the price was very good. But overall, this is a very strange place...

The sea view room is good, and the balcony with bath is just amazing.
But if there is air conditioning at the gym, this resort would be another grade.

The staff were very nice and always helpful, my son is allergic to nuts and they went above and beyond to make sure all his meals didn’t contain any nuts. During breakfast they even do a special meal just for him without us even asking!
