I recently did a solo trip to Phuket from 12th to 15th December and stayed at Impiana Resort Patong, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience. The location is truly one of the resort’s biggest highlights. It has direct access to Patong Beach and is just steps away from Bangla Road (less than 500m away), Jungceylon Mall and making it incredibly convenient whether you’re looking to relax by the sea or enjoy Phuket’s nightlife, massage, eat and many more! Everything is within walking distance. The staffs were excellent—warm, attentive, very helpful and genuinely welcoming. They made me feel comfortable throughout my stay, which really matters when traveling solo. I would also want to say a big thank you to the GM as he made my stay comfortable and among other things. 😊 The pool is on the smaller side, but honestly, it wasn’t an issue at all when you have a beautiful 3km stretch of beach right in front of you. I spent most of my time enjoying the beach instead. I also did morning walk during the weekends and the sunrise is just amazing! You should too! Food at the resort was another pleasant surprise. The meals were authentic and flavorful, giving a true taste of local cuisine. Overall, Impiana Resort Patong is a great choice if you’re looking for beachfront access, a central location, friendly service and good food. I would happily stay here again on my next trip to Phuket.
Tips :
1. Make sure to arrive at Patong area especially going towards Bangla Road before 6pm (the earlier the better) for those planning to arrive on Friday, Saturday and Sunday because the road will be packed and you will be stuck in the traffic. My journey from airport took about 1.5hours to reach the hotel. 😅
2. Booked a taxi from Trip.com (few days before travel) as it is much cheaper at my end but is entirely up to your choice.
3. I bought my e-sim from Klook and it was smooth throughout the days. Activated a day before my flight and the instructions are very clear.
