Everything about the experience was wonderful; the staff were super friendly and the room was truly exceptional. It was heartwarming to see smiles everywhere in the hotel, and the staff were more than ready to serve whenever I asked for assistance. A particular highlight of the trip was the excursion to Koh Hong, which was made even better by the great hospitality provided by your team. Thank you for making my Songkran holiday so memorable. I will definitely visit this place again.

Absolutely gorgeous and amazing stay at Phulay Bay. The grounds, the design, the spacious rooms (with amazing bathroom suites) are all amazing, but it's the service that puts it over the top. Our personal butler, Khun Aea, tended to our every need before we even asked, and took such good care of us. Every single member of the staff goes out of their way to give the guests a perfect stay.

Amazing!

Wow! Probably the best service of any hotel I’ve stayed at. Angela, our butler, was extremely attentive and the other staff we met in the resort were very helpful and friendly (special call out for Lif). Rooms were spacious and beautiful, which great ocean views. Restaurants had great food. Would highly recommend a stay here.

The best of the best!

The world’s best hotel and best service team. They truly define what uber luxury service and genuine care means. We have been returning annually to this and only this hotel for the past 11 years and will continue to do so for as long as possible. They have always treated us as welcomed family members and have never spared any thing less than the best and most perfect for us. Food quality and taste are amazing, property perfect and comfortable. Everything is dreamy and amazing!

Wow what can I say. First 5 star hotel, as noted with different reviews/stories, we did have a personal butler who helped arrange activities, dining, etc. made the experience so much easier. Of course, the staff was wonderful. Food was exceptional. No beach on property but still very luxurious and resort like. Finally, informed the hotel of our honeymoon stay and got a room upgrade and some other perks. Overall, 10/10, highly recommend this place!

10 stars! Wow what an experience! Customer service beyond anything I’ve seen. We arrived by a speed boat and were greeted by banquet Director, iced tea, towels etc. Our beach villa had a private pool, amazing amenities. We had personal butler Khun Yid, and he was beyond amazing. Everything customized with what’s up text service where you can ask for anything and team just makes it happen. Resort is incredible, spa was amazing, pool with swim up bar, restaurants, kids play room and more! Lots of complimentary activities (we did sunrise hike and visited small island) will definitely will be coming back

Wowed by the property! Our room had double king bed!!! I’ve never seen this in my life! We had a “standard” room I didn’t expected to have a suite, it had patio, jacuzzi, showers, walk in closets and more! We had private butler Khun Esther and she was beyond amazing, easy contact with what’s up text service made it so cool and accessible. Hotel service was beyond you will ever experience. It doesn’t have walking distance shopping around but we did go to the night market which was organized by out butler as well. Highly recommend this hotel it worth every dollar and more!

We had an unforgettable and truly magical two-day stay at Phulay Bay. From the moment we made our booking, every interaction—both before arrival and during our time at the hotel—was exceptional. The staff are genuinely warm, attentive, and effortlessly create a welcoming atmosphere; from the second we arrived, we felt completely at home. A special mention must go to Anna, our personal butler, who was outstanding and deserves the highest praise. She went above and beyond to ensure we made the absolute most of our short stay, anticipating our needs with care and thoughtfulness. One of the highlights was the complimentary trip to Hong Island on the resort’s longtail boat—an experience we’ll always remember. The kids were equally delighted with the stunning infinity pool overlooking the islands. Breakfast was nothing short of extraordinary, offering an impressive variety of unique and delicious options. Standout dishes included the blue crab omelette and the local lobster omelette—both absolutely superb. The Thai restaurant Sri Tang is equally exceptional, with ingredients sourced locally or grown on-site, resulting in vibrant, authentic flavours that truly impressed us. We also had the pleasure of meeting Paul, the Food & Beverage Manager, at the hotel’s cocktail party. His passion and enthusiasm for the cuisine were infectious and the dining experience at Sri Tang certainly lived up to his description. We were genuinely disappointed to be leaving so soon and will return!
