Meliá Phuket Mai Khao

We stayed here for three nights at the beginning of our holiday in Thailand. It’s a truly beautiful hotel. The room was lovely, with an outdoor shower and a small pool that was perfect for us and our son. There was no crowding by the pools or in the restaurants. Calm, beautiful, and atmospheric. We highly recommend it and would love to come back.

I love this place

Caution: Pool in the Pool Villa is only 90 cm deep Our stay at Meliá Phuket was overall pleasant, but with some clear drawbacks. Positive: The resort is very well maintained, and the beach is beautiful and pleasantly quiet. The service was generally friendly and helpful – from reception to room dining service, although it could be a bit faster. The villa itself is modern, stylishly designed, and the bed is very comfortable. Negative: The biggest disappointment was the pool in the pool villa: with a depth of only 90 cm, it does not meet expectations for a high-quality pool villa. The breakfast is okay, but nothing special – guests who value high quality might be disappointed. A major issue was the large number of mosquitoes throughout the resort. Even though sprays and coils were provided, we still got many bites. In addition to mosquitoes, we also encountered cockroaches. Therefore, make sure to always keep all doors properly closed – this way we avoided having them in the bedroom, but they were present outside and in the bathroom. The door between the bathroom and the outside was not sealed properly, allowing many mosquitoes to enter. Also, the prices for pool pavilions (2000 Baht plus 3000 Baht minimum consumption) are extremely high for Thai standards. Conclusion: A beautiful resort with great service and a quiet location, but with clear weaknesses regarding the pool, mosquito issue, and overall value for money.

Am tollsten fand ich das extrem bequeme und riesen grosse Bett - ich habe schon lange nicht mehr so gut in einem Hotel geschlafen. Das Zimmer war sehr stilvoll und einladend eingerichtet. Der Service war freundlich und zuvorkommend. Der Strand in Fussnähe ist ruhig und man sieht wunderschöne Sonnenuntergänge. Abzug gibts dafür, dass der private Pool nur 90cm tief ist. So was habe ich noch nie erlebt wenn man ein Zimmer mit privatem Pool / Plunge Becken bucht. Es steht leider auch nicht in der Zimmerbeschreibung. Zu dem Zimmerpreis finde ich das nicht angemessen. Auch nicht passend zu einem 5 Sterne Hotel ist, dass man für die Cabanas am Pool 2500 BHT zahlen und mind. für 3000 BHT konsumieren muss.

Love this hotel, if you are looking for a quiet location this is the right hotel. Food was amazing. But the best thing of staying here is staff. We really felt so welcomed from day one, by the end we were sad to say goodbye to them. We will definitely go back.
