Beyond Resort Kata

Parasta on hotellin loistava sijainti. Hyvä allas-alue. Hotelli ei millään tavalla kontrolloinut aurinkotuolien varaamista. Tuolit olivat pyyheliinoin varattuja jo aamuvarhaisella, varaajat saattoivat tulla vasta puolenpäivän jälkeen paikalle, jos silloinkaan. Palvelu hotellissa ei ole hyvä. Ilmainen WiFi toimii vain aulassa ja sielläkin surkeasti. Huoneen ilmastointi on äänekäs, lisäksi hotellin katolla jotkut pumput jyrisevät illalla myöhään ja käynnistyvät yölläkin. Tämä haittaa ainakin ylimmän kerroksen huoneissa. Aamiainen on varsin keskinkertainen hotellin hintaan nähden.

The hotel was nice, breafast was very nice. Alot of choices for breakfast not only thai food. We had the room 1117 private pool it was very noce the beach is a few meter away. The 2 things i didnt like was the shower in the room, the hot water was not good every 1-3mon it will change to VERY hot water or VERY COLD WATER. And since we had a early checkout at 5am we could not rat our breafast that we paid for. According to the receptionist they will give us a breakfast bag to bring in the morning we got that. Break with cheese 2 old eggs the yellow in the egg was almost black. No juice as she promised in short no drinks at all.

Location is good: by the beach, and at the central area of Kata surrounded by many stores and restaurants. Poor service: rude staff with bad attitude especially the one at pool side bar Swimming pool: small, shallow and it is apparently designed for the kids Loungers : guests are getting up at 6:00am every morning to 'reserve' the loungers with good views, but for many of them, the guests did not show up for the whole day Breakfast place: a variety of choices, quality is just so-so If someone loves the beach place and view, this resort is a good choice If someone prefers a better swimming pool experience, I recommend those resorts with 5-10 minute walking distance toward the direction of Karon e.g. Kata Palm

I thought I could of been given more information about the resort at check in. They pointed us in the direction of our room. Would of liked to have been shown to our room. No compendium in the room so we were unaware of many of the resorts features, like gym, sauna, library, breakfast times.

The resort was nice and located on a beautiful beach. Resort food was just ok. It felt like the Resort tried to keep us from leaving on our checkout date. We paid the Resort’s taxi service to take us to Grand Marina Pier to catch a pre-booked boat to Koh Yao Island & paid 3x the going price. The resort’s driver kept trying to get us to stop at places to “shop” & took us to the wrong marina where he tried to sell us a $200 boat trip to Koh Yao, insisting this was the Grand Marina. Luckily, my phone’s GPS worked to show we were at the wrong marina. Then the driver insisted our pre-booked boat was too dangerous due to Pirates...It took me taking a picture of his taxi license & starting to call Beyond Kata to get him to drive us to the correct marina, which was very nice & without Pirates.
