Amari Phuket

Nigel Parsons

This Resort is perched on the headland just south of Patong Beach the views are superb but these views come at a cost: steep land. Be prepared to use shuttles to travel around the resort. This worked fine for us being a family of four with two small children. We enjoyed five nights in a two-bedroom Ocean View Villa. The room was excellent being clean and tidy with superb views. We dined at both the Thai and Italian restaurants. Both offered excellent food and we particularly enjoyed the degastation menu with paired wines at the Italian restaurant. We also used room service dining which we ordered using an app. The food arrived within 30 minutes and was beautifully arranged on our dining table. One morning we had a 6:30 a.m. pickup for a day out on a boat. The resort provided breakfast Hampers and towels and a wake up call. We found the service throughout our stay to be excellent. As ONYX members we enjoyed 10% discount on all food and Beverage as well as other services such as spa. We also had free use of snacks and mini bar in the room as well as cash to spend in the resort. On arrival the staff clearly pointed out all of the benefits of our membership. On the whole our experience was very positive and we would return again.

The wonderful Amari is located in Phuket's Pa Tong area and it’s committed to providing a peaceful stay for its visitors! This beachfront hilltop resort offers a variety of facilities, eating options, and activities to make sure that everyone is satisfied and I will definitely be going back since I enjoyed this property thoroughly! The entire space is exquisitely set up, and the lobby's roomy, lovely, and straightforward architecture exudes a sense of a peaceful sanctuary. The construction of their rooms exudes sophistication and a modern look. Not only did their rooms have beautiful exteriors, but they also had beautiful interiors. In addition to a range of fruits and snacks and a complementary minibar that included juices, sodas, and coconut water, they were spacious and furnished with everything I needed. From my lodging, I could also enjoy a stunning view of the Pa Tong coastline and the surrounding greenery. Walking about the area gave me the tranquil impression of being in a forest, and I was constantly greeted by breathtaking sights. All hotel visitors can take advantage of the many amenities that Amari provides. Among these facilities are their Idea Room, the Coral Room, the Fit Center, several swimming pools, a spa, and three dining options. I got the chance to see three pools: one near the Rim Talay restaurant, one at Club Pakarang, their clubhouse, and one just next to La Gritta restaurant. It was a very calming experience because each pool was immaculate and well-kept. Their breakfast buffet had a view of the coastline and was served in the Coral Room, which is just next to the Idea Room, which can be used for meetings. Even while on vacation, you can stay in shape thanks to their Fit Center, which is near the La Gritta restaurant. I started by going to Rim Talay for the breakfast buffet. The wide range of delicious meal alternatives was quite alluring, and the food was fresh, which improved its flavor—something that is surprisingly hard to get at most hotels. They also provide a large selection of international dishes for lunch and dinner. My next stop was La Gritta, an Italian restaurant. Well-prepared dishes and polite service were features of this fine dining experience. I suggest getting the Lasagna, which had the perfect ratio of pasta to meat, and the Di Mare pizza, which is a pizza with mixed seafood. The warm, fresh dough added a delightful crunch to the pizza sauce, which was not overly sweet and complemented the shrimp. As expected, the breathtaking view is provided by Amaris Club Pakarang's hilltop location. Aside from a wide range of delicious bite-sized appetizers, they also serve some delicious traditional Thai food alongside western options. Because it has a pool and outside seating, the clubhouse is a terrific spot to relax. Unquestionably one of Phuket's top attractions, Amari provides every tourist with an unforgettable experience with its excellent service, friendly staff, cozy accommodations, delectable food, and stunning views. If you are considering a trip to Phuket and want to have a genuine vacation, I would highly recommend staying at Amari!

Had a lovely experience at Amari. Located in the perfect spot to walk into town, they also offer complimentary shuttles into town at set times to help you get around. Breakfast was delicious and the pools were a perfect place to spend the day. The rooms are airconditioned which is a must in the Phuket heat. All the staff are super super friendly making your stay all the more pleasant. Golf helped us at check out and was amazing. Would definitely recommend staying at Amari Phuket.

The resort on its own is fantastic however is quite far from the main patong area n may require a cab. Also, due to it being lush green and close to the natural environment with scenic views of the ocean- it tends to attract a lot of insects n bugs in the evening making it near impossible to sit in the balcony post sunset to enjoy the views.

I booked Amari due to the high reviews and it's location near Patong Beach but not directly on it. This hotel was okay and I would have rated it higher if it weren't for the layout. It's pretty large and on steep hills. You could not walk to your room and needed to call for a shuttle/songthaew to and from your room each time, which was pretty inconvenient. This sat about 6-8 people comfortably. At high volume times, you would have to wait a while and the songthaew got full (a group even forced itself onto one of the shuttles despite the staff asking them to wait, making it quite uncomfortable). It honestly made me never want to go to back to my room, so I would bring everything I needed for the day with me to breakfast. The complimentary breakfast buffet was pretty nice though. The majority of their guests seem to be from India so they had a made to order Indian bar, which was very good (either made to order dosas puri). The room itself was standard. The service was hit or miss. Some staff were lovely, others were apathetic, which was not expected in Thailand. Solely based on the required shuttle service, I wanted to give this hotel 1 star. It really ruined the experience for me. Disregarding the shuttle service, I would give it 3.5-4 stars.
