Baan Kamala

Please be aware that the pictures are very deceiving. No wall pictures or soft lighting as in the photos. The boat in reception is empty. No seating, books or tables as in the photos. We stayed here previously back in 2019 and sadly it has deteriorated quite dramatically. You cannot fault the staff who are friendly and welcoming. The rooms were clean but tired looking. The pillow cases were marked and the white towels were yellow or very off white! There was a kettle but no coffee until the house service left some the following day. The water in the bathroom had been turned off but we managed to locate the water tap. The air con control was not working so had no option to alter the output. On the plus, good location and a short walk to the beach. Overall we were disappointed and will not book again...there are plenty more to choose from in Kamala for a similar price.

I stayed 2 nights in a shared room and definitely recommend this place to everyone! Welcome drink offered upon arrival, free coffee and relaxing area, privacy with lockers and curtains around your bed. The staff is super welcoming, smiling and helpful. The location is also amazing as in 5 minutes walking you are by the beach and in the same street there are plenty of bar, supermarket and other activities. Everything really super positive!!

The pictures on the website are quite deceiving. The front part of the building was hostel/ backpackers. The owner added the extended building in the back for “hotel” 1. Swimming pool is across the street. Must pay 100 baht for entry fee. 2. The furnitures inside the room seemed to be either missing a part or in the middle of a renovation process. There were no bedside tables and the curtain in the room was half broken. 3. The waiting area(lobby) is a boat sitting design, meaning you have to sit on the floor and wait for your friends. There are few wooden chairs if you cannot sit on the floor. 4. No lift if you stay on the second, third or fourth floors. 5. It’s about 10min walk to the beach. The staff deserved 4 stars. Pleasant, friendly and helpful. The rooms in the back of the building are quiet.

A great place to stay in Kamala Beach My partner and I had an amazing stay at this family run hotel. Located a five minute stroll to the beach, on a street full of local food restaurants, it is peaceful at night and will allow for a great night sleep. The people working at the hotel have beeen very friendly and helpful. They put us in contact with a local business who provided a driver to see Phuket main attractions, they provided an excellent, quick and cheap laundry service, and they were always ready to help if we needed something. As a bonus, you may enjoy spotting the outdoor cat who will provide free entertainment for you and your fellow travellers. Among his favourite activities: doing splits and squatting low on the ground to absorb every single ray of sun. Thanks Baan Kamala for a great stay. Highly recommended!

We stayed on the 4th floor in the double room. It was a nice view from the balcony, which we enjoyed in the evenings. The room was clean and we had toiletries and drinking water provided. The place is 5min walk from the beach. The property had no elevator, but staff helped us to take our bags up.

Staff couldn't be friendlier. Great location in Kamala, rooms are clean and spacious. Big lockers available for bags. I paid 450tbh for one night at reception on the day I was staying. Great hospitality.

The hostel is new, well located, clean, 500 baht in a 4 bed mix dormitory. Problem: at 2:45 in the morning the employee open the door and introduce a neanderthaler in the dorm, talking and opening my curtains by mistake... I understand that people must be sheltered even at night, but it would be nicer and more respectful if the check-in was less NOISY!

Very nice experience staying in the dorm! It was a 4 beds room with curtains. The hotel is clean and housekeeping was coming everyday to clean the room and organise our beds! The staff was lovely and very helpful. Location is great, only a few minutes from the beach, restaurant and supermarket. I recommend!
