Centara Kata Resort

Melissa Hudson

We stayed at Centara Kata for 7 nights and had a fantastic experience. Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised with an upgrade to a One Bedroom Suite, which offered plenty of space for our family of four (2 adults and 2 children). The room was clean and comfortable, with a lovely balcony overlooking the pool area—a great spot to relax. The pool area was a hit with the kids, especially the waterslide, which kept them entertained for hours. The adults appreciated the swim-up bar and the daily happy hour at 4pm, which was a nice touch. One of the highlights of the stay was the Friday foam party—fun for both kids and adults, and a memorable experience for everyone. The breakfast buffet was another standout. It was well-stocked with a wide variety of tasty options to suit all tastes, making for a great start to each day. A special mention goes to the wonderful staff members Aoy, Wut, and Kla, who went out of their way to make our daughter’s birthday extra special on our final day by singing "Happy Birthday" and presenting her with a delicious cake. It was a thoughtful gesture that truly meant a lot to our family. The only minor drawbacks were the shower temperature, which tended to fluctuate between cool and hot, and a stiff bathroom door that was a little tricky to close. However, these were small issues in what was otherwise a very comfortable and enjoyable stay. We would definitely recommend Centara Kata to families looking for a fun, relaxing holiday with great service and amenities.

An absolutely fantastic place that exceeded all expectations! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the warmth and professionalism of the staff—every single one of them was genuinely friendly, helpful, and always greeted us with a smile. The food was consistently excellent, offering delicious options at very reasonable prices. The pool areas were a hit with both kids and adults, perfectly designed for relaxation and fun. A special shout-out to the incredible bar team—Ohm, Coach, Wan, and their amazing manager Joy—who made every visit to the bar a real pleasure. Their energy and friendliness added so much to our stay. Reception staff were equally impressive—super professional while still being warm and approachable. A big thank you to Nanny, who went above and beyond to help us switch rooms so we could be closer to the action near the bar—truly appreciated! Evenings were a delight, with live music and a buzzing atmosphere paired with great food. My 12-year-old had an absolute blast, and we’re already planning our return. This place has it all—comfort, charm, and a team that truly makes you feel at home. Highly recommended!

From the very first step at the reception, we felt incredibly welcomed with amazing service – the best we have ever experienced. We stayed at the resort for 17 nights, and they were the best days and nights of our lives. 10 stars for everything. From the front desk staff to room service, daily housekeeping – everything was done with a smile and gratitude. The people in the kids’ club were absolutely wonderful, and our children loved them every single day. Words cannot describe how grateful we are to have stayed at Centara Kata. The breakfasts were excellent, with something new and different every day – which was perfect for such a long stay. Everyone here gave 200%. I celebrated my birthday here and received two amazing cakes with birthday wishes – it was unforgettable. I truly wish that everyone could experience such a wonderful stay like we had. I highly recommend this place – everyone who stays here will meet beautiful, smiling people. I will truly miss the people we met here – whether at the reception, in the restaurant, during housekeeping, or the drivers who took us to the beach with a smile, as well as those who took care of us by the pool or at the bar. Every person working here gives 100%, and I deeply appreciate that. I truly hope to see these people again one day. It was an honor, and thank you so much for everything – it was an unforgettable stay. I 100,000% recommend Centara Kata Resort to everyone. Thank you ❤️

We had THE most amazing stay at the Centara Kata. The staff were so welcoming and friendly and went above and beyond in everything. We felt so well looked after. The attention to detail from the team was incredible, we have never had such great service as we had here (and we have stayed in many lovely places around Thailand over the years). The rooms were clean and tidy and had beautiful outlooks, one onto the garden and the other onto one of the gorgeous swimming pools. The rooms have everything you need, the bathroom is beautiful and tranquil. The swimming pools are all AMAZING. Kids loved the DJ and foam party on Friday afternoon, so much fun. The food was incredible, the Chef is very talented and really cares about guests enjoying the menu. We loved the breakfasts, lunch and dinners and the fabulous International Buffet Dinner was a real treat! So delicious, all of it, very fresh, immaculately prepared and tasty. And so much selection, you don’t need to actually eat anywhere else! And the dining area is relaxing and gorgeous, we just loved it and kept coming back for our meals here instead of heading out. It’s a great location set back only a bit and due to this the Centara feels - and I believe is - VERY safe. Quick easy walk to the beach and lots of shops and food very close by, 7-11 etc. So convenient. Or the Centara have a free shuttle to the beach and back. We took that down and easily walked back by choice with the children, not a problem. Kata beach is stunning. We felt so relaxed, the Resort has everything you need and we enjoyed our time in the beautiful grounds too that are so well looked after, it really is an amazing huge property with lush gardens and it’s all so well kept and gorgeous walking around. The staff take such great care of it all and clearly have a lot of pride in what they do and how it is presented. What a gem, we all were sad to leave and will recommend Centara Kata to everyone. We would one million percent stay here again! Thankyou so much for the most amazing time here.
