Sujata, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Absolutely gorgeous and amazing stay at Phulay Bay. The grounds, the design, the spacious rooms (with amazing bathroom suites) are all amazing, but it's the service that puts it over the top. Our personal butler, Khun Aea, tended to our every need before we even asked, and took such good care of us. Every single member of the staff goes out of their way to give the guests a perfect stay.

This resort is amazing and was the best part of our Thailand vacation. The property is beautiful and serine and was truly relaxing. The service is top notch and Jean took excellent care of us. If you get the opportunity to go to Krabi, do not hesitate to stay here, you will not regret.

Hands down best hotel in Krabi and Phuket

Rarely do you call anything Ritz-related value for money, but this place is really unique. And extreme value for money compared to other 5-stars resorts in Krabi. Food is great, service is world class, the spa is amazing and the best options are the cheapest rooms - which are our favorite - and also the smaller beach villas. They have better location and feeling than the more expensive ones.

BERBAT

Balayı için gitmiştik özellikle de belirttik. 0 privacy olan bir oda verdiler hemen yanımız başka bir odaydı çocuk gürültüsünden sürekli yüksek sesten duramadık bile. Ses yalıtımı sıfırdı. Odamız her yerden gözüküyordu perdeleri kapatmadan yatağa bile yatamıyorduk hiç memnun kalmadık butler çok çok kötüydü personel doğru düzgün ingilizce bilmiyordu

C'est l'un des plus beaux hôtels dans lequel.je n'ai jamais séjourné. Un vrai palace, avec un service irréprochable, une gentillesse rare, du jardinier jusqu'au butler assigné à la chambre. Des petits détails qui font toute la différence, petites attentions tous les jours, dans la chambre comme en dehors, rarement aussi satisfait d'un hôtel, pour en avoir visité un certain nombre en 30 ans de voyage, celui là je le mets sur le podium des meilleurs. Nous reviendrons. Merci encore à tout le staff, et au manageur pour cette organisation et ce niveau de service.

The best of the best!

The world’s best hotel and best service team. They truly define what uber luxury service and genuine care means. We have been returning annually to this and only this hotel for the past 11 years and will continue to do so for as long as possible. They have always treated us as welcomed family members and have never spared any thing less than the best and most perfect for us. Food quality and taste are amazing, property perfect and comfortable. Everything is dreamy and amazing!

10/10 Exceptional

Wow what can I say. First 5 star hotel, as noted with different reviews/stories, we did have a personal butler who helped arrange activities, dining, etc. made the experience so much easier. Of course, the staff was wonderful. Food was exceptional. No beach on property but still very luxurious and resort like. Finally, informed the hotel of our honeymoon stay and got a room upgrade and some other perks. Overall, 10/10, highly recommend this place!

Amazing!

Wow! Probably the best service of any hotel I’ve stayed at. Angela, our butler, was extremely attentive and the other staff we met in the resort were very helpful and friendly (special call out for Lif). Rooms were spacious and beautiful, which great ocean views. Restaurants had great food. Would highly recommend a stay here.
