“Kata Beach's kind-hearted classic”
The Boathouse Phuket sits directly opposite Kata Beach — a 1989 classic refreshed in 2017, with super comfortable clean rooms, lovely ocean-view balconies, a calm pool and quiet beach days. Smiling kind staff made a birthday feel heartfelt, and repeat guests return yearly; breakfast is a standout eaten facing the sea — fresh eggs, though juices aren't fresh-pressed — and dinners are excellent. One limit: room service stops at ten p.m.
