Great hotel for family traveling with kids. We should’ve splurged for the swim in suites. The suites was spacious for family of 4. Amenities included flip flops, swim towels. Breakfast buffet had a lot of options for kids and adults. Adult only pool is 12+ and faces the beach. The beach was spectacular, water was warm, clean and clear

We had terrible weather and the beach was closed the whole time we were there but not even that could dampen our spirits as the hotel was fantastic!. We stayed in the Thani wing in an ocean view junior suit. We weren’t on a package but we found each of the food outlets to be reasonable. We travelled with our 7 year old and he absolutely loved. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful - food was amazing - facilities excellent. It was so good we had planned to stay in another hotel in Khao lak for a week after our stay but we stayed only one night and went back to Katathani. Definitely recommend it to others!

We stayed in the family with bunk beds. The walls are very thin so if you have rowdy neighbors you can clearly hear each others conversations. Our littles had a hard time even w adding sound machines to try and tune out the noise.

We unfortunately had issues with the sewage in the bathroom. Maybe bc we were the room on the floor end. It smelled like something died in the toilet and was quite unpleasant. The maintenance crew came three days in a row but could not fix the issue. When the neighbors would flush or use the bathroom we could hear the water backing up in the pipes.

The amenities, kids activities, kids club, breakfast, and pools were fabulous.
Just wish we could’ve gotten much needed rest and were turned off by the foul smell.

We stayed at the Vhari Wing and the overall environment is superb! Clean room, good service, friendly staff, good food.

The rooms were spacious, clean, and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and excellent amenities. The staff were warm and friendly. We especially enjoyed the resort’s facilities, including the swimming pools, water play facilities and dining options, The peaceful atmosphere made it easy to unwind and spend quality time with family.

There are also many restaurants and shops nearby and it is very convenient to get what we need.

Overall, this resort exceeded our expectations and provided a memorable holiday experience. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing beach escape and would gladly return in the future.

This resort is wonderful for families with children. The amenities within the hotel are more than enough to keep kids entertained, and the beach is much cleaner and more family-friendly compared to Patong Beach, which can feel a bit sleazy and may not be suitable for young children.

The resort also offers plenty of restaurants. However, if you enjoy street food, you will need to travel outside the resort to find more local dining options.

Overall, this is an excellent hotel for families with kids, and I would highly recommend it for a relaxing family vacation.

The resort is located at the bottom of an hill at the end of a road. It covers a wide amount of property with several pools. There is beach access, you can rent a lounger on the beach from locals, cheap. The sand is soft and relatively clean of debris. Variety of places to eat within resort and some local restaurants. You will need to take a cab to explore other parts, beaches, markets, etc.

Beach was beautiful. Water slides were great except they were often closed which other resorts don't do.
Staff were lovely and helpful.

Pools were way too hot. There was no need to heat them at all in that heat. It was like going into a spa.

Also, they sweeten everything. Cocktails way too sweet.

I took my daughter here and for one they have everything for kids that is for sure. Just beware of the times of some events. they own I think 5 hotels right there and you can use them all and you need to take your kids to the kids club at a different hotel. The beach was amazing soft sand and the water was perfect. I usually dont write anything but this resort deserves it and I am a world traveler. Keep in mind it is around 1 hour from the airport but it is worth it and there is no crazy stuff for you kids to see when you are there.

Across the street from the hotel you can find some restaurants a couple shops and massage spas but generally the area is all for this hotel. A more lively area would be up the road at Kata Beach. However it’s a short walk or a short Grab ride. This area is better for kids. The resort has plenty to do and really caters to you if you have kids. They have babysitting service as well.

We didn’t love our stay at the Katathani Resort.

While the staff were lovely, kind, and always smiling, the overall experience left a lot to be desired. The resort’s location is very remote — there’s not much within easy walking distance — and to make matters worse, there was heavy construction right outside the property. Any time we wanted to walk anywhere, we had to pass through huge, muddy construction puddles. It was really unpleasant.

Our room smelled musty from the moment we arrived, and the beds were unbelievably hard — the pool loungers were actually softer than the mattress.

We spent most of our time at the adult pool, which had several signs asking for quiet and relaxation, but unfortunately this wasn’t enforced. There were groups of young people yelling and playing loudly while staff didn’t intervene at all.

After three days, we honestly couldn’t wait to leave. The surrounding Kata/Karon area is similar to other parts of Phuket, so you can easily find a better resort elsewhere and probably enjoy your stay much more.

Despite contacting the hotel before hand they were not able to be flexible with my check-in time and made me wait to the exact minute check-in started. There is no way they didn't have at least one room ready and refused to switch my room with another that was already ready. This is a budget hotel behavior. They also restricted the settings of the AC in the hotel room like a low end hotel. The floors in the room were not clean and the breakfast was worse compared to other similar resorts I have stayed at in Phuket.

Sixth stay - great for couples and families

This is our sixth stay at katathani over 10 years. We have seen the resort change and improve over the years but the basic characteristics are the same: a very large resort along a beach which is almost predominantly used by hotel guests with a number of small restaurants and shops on the outside of the resort and 5 or six within the resort. We came originally as a couple and now we have three children and it is still brilliant.

Don’t Go There!

The hotel is huge, overcrowded, and far from everything.
Distances between areas are enormous! It was never mentioned that there are two separate lobbies. I specifically requested two adjoining rooms with a sea view (traveling with my kids, which is very important), yet we were given rooms facing buildings in the second lobby, across the road and far from the sea.
The hotel is 1.5 hours from the airport, an hour from the city center, and even within the property, everything is a long walk – the dining hall feels like a trek.
The information on the website is extremely misleading, with no hint of this reality. On top of that, all the nearby restaurants belong to the hotel.
Very disappointed!

The external parts of the report is fantastic, the pools were amazing as was access to the beach. Sadly our room wasn’t up to scratch. It smelled very damp and musty to the point where I struggled to sleep on the first night. We asked for a room change and one was offered, 4 rooms away and the problem was just as bad. So we decided to stay put. In hindsight I should have asked to be moved again but I wonder if the whole resort has the same issue. We were given a fruit platter as an apology and on checkout, we noticed all rooms near us were being aired and deep cleaned. Phuket was amazing but sadly I won’t return to this resort. It is listed as 5 star but more like a 3 star for the room

A significant amount of the hotel was under re-development, most mornings we had to queue for between 15 and 20 minutes for breakfast. Lighting near the Andaman wing was poor and I nearly fell into the adult pool that was under construction.
We were also delayed in Dubai and were placed into the Copthorne Dubai Airport that has to be one of the most disgusting hotels that I have ever had to check in to. During this stay I had to request basic toiletries (shaving and dental equipment) from the reception desk. As a consequence we lost 1 days stay at the Katathani, Between the state of the Katathani and the Copthorne Dubai Airport I struggled to decide which was the worse hotel. Other guests that were delayed by 2.0 hours were offered a free meal at the Katathani - we were nearly 24 hours late and were offered a voucher for a bowl of fruit !!
I expected higher standards from both the Katathani after staying their previously, I also expected to be treated more fairly by Emirates and Expedia.
We missed a special 60th Birthday for my cousin who was very unforgiving and I have not spoken to since as a result of this delay.
Given how this situation was handles by Emirates and the hotel my guess is that Expedia will also ignore this review despit me handing over £3700 for the holiday

While the grounds are lovely, room spacious and pools across the resort offer great choice there were some elements that made the stay less than what we had expected. Check in was lengthy and required a room move for part of our family. We were not aware that different room types were in different buildings so even though the booking had same name and we communicated about travelling with family and requesting allocation near the rest of our party> we weren't advised until check in that rooms would be in different buildings. The various opening times of restaurants and pool bars with gaps in food availability especially with young children made it frustrating at times. We only learned a few days in that the bistro was the only place to order between 4h30 and 6h30pm. The beach- while seemingly part of the resort has a charge for beach chairs as it looks to be operated by outside vendors. not a major issue as there are chairs close by on resort grounds grass but just be aware that you need to pay for chairs on the beach itself.

A little paradise in Phuket

This place is a little paradise in Phuket. Kata Noi is probably the best beach in the area as it is not as crowded as others, allowing you to fully enjoy the sea and the beach. Many restaurants in the Resort, obviously they are much more expensive than any independent restaurants outside the hotel, but you pay for comfort and the view. Nice and friendly staff.
