    All is well, but, a big but, the room is mosquito infested, my two yound children get bitten by mosquitos, staff sprayed the room on the second day after I complained, it didn't work however. Now I had to take them to hospital for skin infection. My one year old now has hand foot mouth disease after this stay. Mosquito spray can be treated on wall surfaces and it could last at least 3 months, it appears they didn't do this. Photo looks nice online but our balcony is facing a blank wall just 1 meter away from balcony edge, this is bad design and affects people's mood, and they should show this online rather than a beautiful room with ocean view. Staff is nice, breakfast buffet is great, swimming pool amazing. But the mosquito is the deal breaker, they should take this seriously for a 4 star hotel.

    A well-maintained old hotel with impeccable service The hotel is far from being new. But it's well-maintained and has spacious rooms which we really appreciate. The best part is the hotel's professional service from booking until leaving the hotel. We booked the hotel through Thai government's เราเที่ยวด้วยกัน (Travel together) campaign but faced several problems in the process. Khun Bow (a reservation staff there) was especially patient and helpful. This created a great impression even before our trip began. Once there, we weren't disappointed. Not only that our rooms got upgraded to sea view rooms right away, whenever we want to go to Cape Panwa Hotel to use facilities there, the hotel immediately contact the shuttle bus for us. Breakfast at Cape Panwa was great with plenty of options to choose for. I did not feel bored eating there two days in a row. The cafe at Kantary bay hotel was also decent. It was reasonably priced and although my truffle mushroom pasta wasn't very satisfying, the seafood pizza was enjoyable and the exotic fruit crepe was really tasty as well as refreshing. The reason why one star is deducted is the hotel's lack of accessibility for wheelchair users. The hotel's front features two levels of stairs before reaching the elevator (which is a weird design in my opinion). Plus, the first stair was very steep and my elder relatives who went there all suffered from its height. This is a real pity, as the high stairs disencourage them from walking down to enjoy the beautiful sea view in front of the hotel.

    We stayed in the hotel for 7 nights. We had a sea view with a large balcony. It was beautiful. The staff was very nice and helpful. The room was big for 3 of us and spacious. The breakfast buffet was included. It had very nice selection. The location of the hotel was near the sea and the sister hotel which was the cape panwa hotel was reachable by the hotel shuttle. The sister hotel got its own access to the sea so we liked to spend our day there. However the distance to Phuket airport was around 1 hour. To the old town was 30 minutes as well as to the shopping mall and market. The hotel provided service to these places with fees. We also used grab to go everywhere by an app.

    We stayed with a family (4-12data) it was a huge area, we really liked it! everything looked like it was in the tropics! perhaps the greenest hotel because we were in the top five (cape panwa) there is not like this - where you can use the pools and the beach for free, there is also a service, it’s very convenient, you don’t have to wait long for the driver

  • 5/5 Frequent T. 2 years ago on Google
    It was love on first sight already when entering the hotel. I liked the classic and bright entrance and lobby, full of friendly greens and flowers, and the reception and employees just as nice. Then when I admired the view onto that grandiose bay from the room, I quickly called the reception to extend our stay for a week. The sunsets kept being spectacular on all evenings. In the mornings, we crossed over the narrow isthmus to the East side of this cape, to have breakfast at the Cape Panwa hotel. It is a wonderful place, as cosy as the Kantary, with a private beach and the nicest swimming pool of the country. We spent all days on that beach in the midst of the palm grove under a shady tree, and when one week was over, I had to extend again for a week. If feeling in paradise, don't hurry leaving it. At times I thought to myself that this would be my ideal living place, by its situation. You live on the cape and even when sleeping the mental mapping instills that peace. We will remember this place and miss it.

    When I was very young, my parents took me on a family holiday to stay here for the first time. After that, we went back regularly as it quickly became a family favourite and, as a result, tied into my nostalgic memories of childhood. Recently, my dad and I went back for the first time in many years and, unlike many places that one visits after growing up, it did not disappoint. In all the important ways - the feelings of safety and relaxation, the peaceful atmosphere - the place has not changed. That is not to say they haven't looked after it! On the contrary, it is well kept and they have even had some renovations done, which can be seen on their website photos. This is one of the rare cases where I would say the hotel website does the best job at representing the reality of what the rooms look like. The fact that the rooms have kitchens perfectly kits this place out for long stays and makes it all the more convenient for shorter stays. Importantly, the beds are very comfortable and the place is clean (my dad and I both have dust allergies so it's easy to tell when a place is or isn't clean). In terms of things to do, you could stroll around their beautiful gardens filled with diverse Thai flora, or swim in one of the many pools accessible to you as a guest, you could walk the pier and visit the aquarium and marine research centre (only a short 5 minute walk away). In the morning, the Kantary Cafe serves affordable coffee and some very tasty ice cream. They also make delicious food and their cakes look divine. There is also the option of using the facilities of the Cape Panwa Hotel, of which there are many including pools, restaurants, a beach, bars, a board game room etc. The Cape Panwa Hotel (the Kantary Bay Hotel's partner) resides just over the hill and there is a regular shuttle bus that travels between the two in case you can't manage the climb. On the days you want a bit of exercise, the climb may even be welcome! The neighbourhood comes alive at night with a street market where you can pick up some classic street food and snacks. If this quiet little corner of Phuket is a too quiet for you at times, there is the option of renting a car or a motorbike from one of the nearby businesses. If in doubt, I'm sure the Bay Hotel staff could help you figure out transport (where to rent, how to do so) should you want to travel a bit. Within a short driving distance, there are many things to do and see. I would recommend the Phuket 'Old Town'. The museum is very interesting and there are a plethora of cafes, restaurants and shops to browse. On top of all this, the staff make this place truly special. Everybody, from the cleaning staff to the desk managers to the those that work in the Bay Hotel offices, are incredibly thoughtful, kind and caring. Their hard work and dedication to their guests and to the hotel keep the place running smoothly and keeps you feeling safe and welcome the whole time. Overall, I highly recommend this place, not just because I have fond memories, but also because it's excellent value for money and a wonderful way to spend your time if you're looking to relax by the sea and sand. Plus, there's a reason why I have fond memories in the first place!

  • 5/5 Nataliia Y. 2 years ago on Google
    A couple of days ago, we stayed at Kantary. First of all, we were impressed with the quality of service. While one is waiting for his/her PCR result, it is possible to enjoy tasty meals from Kantary cafe. Mango sticky rice is the best. Safety is amazing. All the staff members are fully vaccinated, wearing masks properly, nose in, also when outside. That is why it is easy to relax and even forget about threats of pandemics. Also, we forgot our passports and quite a lot of cash is safety deposit box in the room. We are grateful to the team of Kantary who stored our valuables for the time while we were continuing our trip. We just picked them up on our way back, before our flight home. The team is super professional.

  • 1/5 Permporn H. 3 months ago on Google New
    I definetely do not understand why this hotel is 5 stars: No slippers, no dressing gowns, only avaliable once "requested". No shampoo left in the bottle and we realized right after we were about to take a bath. Wow. Honestly this is unacceptable. We paid to get this. The manager apologized, but I will never come to this hotel ever again. My worst stay at a hotel ever. I do not recommend this hotel. Absolutely unacceptable. This should be a 1 star hotel honestly. This could be a great hotel, a great beach and a good room, but please improve your customer service.

    The best thing about this Hotel is the location. Right on the promenade, you can take walks along the sea. Plenty of restaurants next to the hotel and also a supermarket. Some of the rooms have a great view of the ocean. The rooms might seem a little old worldly but we found them cozy. The service is great. Staff is really helpful.

    Rooms are beautiful if you take the one with higher price. Food is not for Indians for sure. Location is quiet and beautiful. We got a room with beach view. They did not offer welcome drink and we saw them offering it to other people which was a miss. They charge for their laundry bags which is not a good thing as it’s just a normal cloth.

  • 4/5 Baseem 1 year ago on Google
    Solid hotel, staff were very friendly and welcoming, shops and restaurant around and it’s very convenient. Only downside is furniture in the room seems to be very old and beds are not that comfortable. But great value for the price

  • 5/5 Артем �. 1 year ago on Google
    Me with my girlfriend stayed at this awesome hotel for 1 month. It is the best place to stay with your family for a calm vacation. Cozy rooms, amazing cleanliness and service, many amenities: two pools, gym, reading room, etc… But the most important thing is the friendliest staff I have ever met. Totally recommend to stay here and really hope to come again.

    Everything is great. The only defect is the mosquito. There are so many mosquitoes, it's really hard to survive.

  • 5/5 Rohan W. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved my stay at the Kantary and use of the facilities at the sister hotel, Cape Panway. The views from Kantaray are outstanding, staff are friendly. Will be sure to come back.

    Nice room with practical kitchen, washing machine and sea view, shared facilities and breakfast with Cape Panwa Hotel. Nice cafe in front of the hotel. Drive for 15 minutes to Phuket old town.

  • 5/5 Alfred R. 1 year ago on Google
    We booked the Ocean View room and it was more like an apartment, we could not believe how beautiful it was. And it had all the amenities you need for an enjoyable stay. The bed was super comfortable but for us the highlight was sitting out on the balcony enjoying a drink and just watching out over the bay, wonderful views and so relaxing. They have a swimming pool, a little on the small size but suited us perfectly as there were not too many guests during our stay there. For breakfast you will be shuttled by an oversize song taew to the Cape Panwa resort just up the hill. The buffet breakfast here was outstanding. A great choice of dishes and all fresh and tasty. There is an agreement in place where the Kantary Bay Hotel guests are able to use the swimming pools at the Cape Panwa also, and they are beautiful pools. The beach is only a short walk from the hotel but the area surrounding the hotel is fairly quiet (some establishments still closed account Covid) although there are several bar/restaurants within walking distance and you can buy street food out front after 5pm. There is also a little mini mart and café just next door. You can have food delivered from the café to your room if you so wish. The staff at the Kantary Bay were excellent, friendly, attentive and efficient. All in all we had the most wonderfully relaxing stay and considering the price we paid, the value was just outstanding. We look forward to returning and cannot recommend this place highly enough if you are looking for a quiet, relaxing break.

  • 5/5 Nasim D. 1 year ago on Google
    We stayed for almost 2 weeks and enjoyed our stay at this beautiful hotell every single day. Our rooms were big and had everything we needed including a washing machine, big refrigerator so that we could buy things from the supermarket if needed. The view is right out to the Andaman sea and is AMAZING! The hotel staff were so kind and helpful and took care of us in a wonderful way. The hotel offers free shuttles to the sister hotel Cape Panwa where you can enjoy a wonderful beach, restaurants, pools and many other amazing facilities. It was our first time visiting Thailand but it won't be the last, and when we return, it will definitely be to Kantary Bay!

  • 5/5 Todd R. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely spot to relax, nice professional staff, clean comfortable rooms. We Sandbox'ed here and were very happy. Can take shuttle over the hill to its partner resort for its lovely little beach and facilities or relax out front on the boardwalk with some cheap street eats in the evening.
