Rawai Palm Beach Resort - SHA Extra Plus

Stayed here from 9th to 16th June 2025 in room 1110 The pool access room is worth the extra. After the main pool is closed for the night you still have your private pool area you can access anytime. The breakfast selection provided is great and did offer vegetarian options. The pool length is approx a 70 metre length for those who lap swim with some small deviation due to pool design. The upper pool has no obstructions but i didn’t measure its lap length. Room Safe is large enough to fit a 13inch Ipad Pro, most other places only have small safes Staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The location is close to restaurants and the “phuket smart bus” stop. This bus costs on 100bht ($4.70Aus) and takes you all the way to the airport.

The resort is beautifully designed around a fabulous central pool within a lush tropical garden setting. Rooms were very comfortable, spacious and clean . A very nice ambiance. Staff were very friendly.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent Stay at Rawai Palm Beach Resort The staff were absolutely amazing – from the moment we stepped out of our transport we were greeted warmly with a refreshing welcome drink and smooth check-in. The hotel even offered a free shuttle bus to nearby beaches, which was a great bonus. The property itself is stunning, surrounded by vibrant gardens, clean walkways and beautiful pool areas. Great for children too! There were always plenty of sunbeds available, fluffy pool towels and friendly pool bar staff serving up delicious cocktails. We stayed in a deluxe family suite on the fourth floor overlooking the pools and bay. The height was perfect – quiet enough that we couldn’t hear people swimming and no noise from pubs, restaurants or bars. The suite was huge, very clean and regularly serviced. The staff happily provided extra pillows when we asked. The air conditioning kept the room perfectly cool, and the beds were comfortable – making it easy to rest at any time of day. Breakfast was excellent with a wide selection – fresh fruit, pastries, yogurts, Thai dishes, salads, juices, and an egg station where you could order eggs and bacon just how you like them. A great way to start the day! The location is fantastic, on the quieter western side of Rawai Bay. It’s an easy walk to local restaurants and beachside dining, with plenty of longboats available for island trips. While there aren’t as many tourist-style market stalls in this part of Rawai, there are plenty of day spas, local massage spots, yoga studios, Muay Thai gyms, pharmacies, Tops (like IGA) 7 Elevens and relaxed bars – all with a much calmer vibe than Patong. Getting around was easy. Grab cars cost around $10 AUD to Nai Han Beach or Chalong Bay and about $20 AUD one-way to Patong, which made for a fun day trip. Scooter hire is also available just across the road from the hotel, and the area feels safe and easy to explore.

Breakfast was nice and our swim out room was lovely

The private swim out pool was excelleny
