This hotel is absolutely beautiful. Check in staff were super friendly and efficient and we were in our room within 20 minutes. The rooms are a great size and very clean. Being on the ground floor we had our own verandah with lounges and table and chairs so this was great for afternoon drinks. Breakfast was great with a very big variety of food and if they didn't have papaya the chef would bring us out a plate full so that was a special touch. The pool area is huge and wasn't very busy and this hotel is beachfront so we'd go for a swim in the ocean as well. Staff were very friendly and efficient and trained very well and they made you feel so welcome. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to visit Khao Lak.

“Lovely hotel in a beautiful setting”

We stayed one night in 2104 which overlooked the gardens. Unfortunately it smelled very musty but other than that it was a lovely room.

We stayed one night in 2104 which overlooked the gardens. Unfortunately it smelled very musty but other than that it was a lovely room. The breakfast was great, fab coffee and lots of choice, and the staff were really lovely. It was a very short walk to lots of restaurants. We didn’t stay longer as we were on our way to Khao Sok National Park.

“Third time at the resort!”

This was our third trip to Ramada, the first 12 years ago, the second just before Covid and again Nov 24. The drive from Phuket airport to the resort is just over an hour. You may feel concerned as you come off the main road and wind through to the hotel. You will pass many many restaurants, massage parlours, bars and shops and may be concerned. Don't worry as soon as you get to the hotel reception you are transported to another world a tranquil and world away from the everyday. In many ways the hotel has not changed at all. Some of the staff were there 12 years ago and love working at the hotel and it shows. From the young junior trainee to the General Manager everyone has a smile on their face. It feels very genuine too. We stayed for 12 days and it is truly one of the most relaxing hotels ever visited. If you are looking for loud music and entertainment until the early hours, this is not the hotel for you. By 9-30 at night the hotel is as quiet as a mouse. Situated on a wonderful stretch of beach that is regularly cleared of debris, you have the best of both worlds. An amazingly large pool that has no deep end, the depth is 1.3 metres with a small section for children. There weren't many children staying but those that were seemed to find the most joy from being in the water with their parents. They were all exceptionally well behaved. Most of the guests were German/Dutch/Scandinavian with just a handful of Brits. All guests were respectful of everyone. No one tried to hog chairs and the smoking policy was adhered to. No one smoked in any area apart from the designated area that was well away from everyone else. The gardens are beautifully maintained and are incredibly pretty in the evening. We stayed in one of the Villas overlooking the beach and whilst they are more expensive, they are worth it. The view overlooking the Adaman Sea is fantastic and as the sun sets you have your own space to take it all in. The food either breakfast or in Sassi's is really good. You also have a slightly superior breakfast if you are in the Villas but there is plenty of choice. The evening menu varies from a regional buffet to a normal menu and both were excellent. There is some entertainment most evenings, from singers, a fire show, local folk show. These are very low key events and need a little more publicity to know they are on. They tend to all be finished by 9'9-15 so this is not the hotel for the night owls. The gym is very small and whilst it has a number of items it is very small and quite depressing. I managed my own workout on the beach which was much better! As said at the beginning of the review, you are within 5 minutes walking distance of 20 restaurants. 10 minutes to the market and another 25 places to eat. The ones we tried were all to a high standard with very reasonable prices. Taxi's are available outside the hotel if you want to go further afield, but it's just not necessary. So if you are looking at at hotel that offers peace and quiet surrounded by beautiful gardens, the Ramada is a great choice. Would we go again? Yes.
