Kalima Resort & Spa Phuket

Great Stay, But More 4-Star Than 5-Star We really enjoyed our time here — the staff work tirelessly, the breakfast is delicious and varied, and the infinity pool overlooking Patong and the sea is beautiful. The sky bar with live music was a real highlight. That said, it feels more like a solid 4-star hotel than a true 5-star. There are quite a few stairs to reach the rooms, and some areas look a bit unfinished or in need of upkeep. Our suite was comfortable but fairly basic, similar in size to other, rather basic hotel rooms we stayed at in Thailand. Also, there’s no easy beach access, which was a bit disappointing. Food was mediocre: some dishes were good, some weren’t really. Big menu, so stick with what’s easy to prepare and local. Overall, we had a good experience — just set your expectations closer to a high-end 4-star, rather than a luxury 5-star resort.

Had an amazing stay at Kalima Resort & Spa Patong Beach! The view was breathtaking, the pool area was beautiful, and the rooms were spotless and comfortable. Big thanks to Joe and Baw for their outstanding service during my stay. They were incredibly kind, professional, and always ready to help with anything I needed. They truly made my trip special! I’d definitely come back and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Phuket.

One of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had!Joe and Sordy gave us the most incredible service — always smiling, helpful, and made us feel like family from the moment we arrived. Every detail was taken care of perfectly. The room was spotless, the view was amazing, and the overall atmosphere was pure luxury. If you ever come here, make sure to ask for Joe and Sordy — they’re the reason this hotel stands out! Highly recommend and will definitely come back again 🙌✨

I booked a Deluxe Sea View room with breakfast. 1. My room in Building 1 had electric poles and wires obstructing part of the sea view. It was on the 2nd floor, so the view was still better than the lower floors. Only Buildings 1 and 2 offer privacy with sea views — Building 2 has a slightly clearer view, while other buildings face directly into each other. I’d recommend choosing a sea view room in Building 1 or 2. 2. As an Indian vegetarian, I had informed the hotel of my dietary needs in advance and received confirmation they’d be accommodated. However, only about 1% of the breakfast buffet was suitable — I could manage with coffee, yogurt, muesli, and a basic sandwich. The buffet itself was lavish but heavily non-vegetarian, with items like bacon, khao suey, and churros, yet surprisingly no simple vegetarian or even ice cream options. 3. Lastly, none of the common areas, including the lobby and restaurant, are air-conditioned. At 32°C in late October, guests waiting for check-in (which starts at 3 PM) were sweating in the lobby — not what you’d expect from a 5-star property at this price point. Overall, the rooms, pool, and vibe are lovely, but the overall experience didn’t feel worth the premium due to limited vegetarian options and lack of comfort in common spaces.
