Very clean and nice studio. There is a small kitchen very useful. The hotel is a bit far from the beach, but u can rent a motorbike in a place next to the hotel. I recommended the hotel if u are looking for a quit and relaxing holidays.

The room was excellent, love the kitchen, the pool, the place, the curve samsung tv, the wifi. They need to work on their service staff, i can see one of them are the best, i did not get her name. And the who take the extra effort to ride the bike to send me to kata beach, there are two of them. The office staff dis not tell me one of the day there is no shuttle bus, and i waited about 30 minutes for it. The downside of it is the location, if ur hungry, there is a restaurant vegan, u need to know how to ride a bike, if not u need to walk maybe 15 minutes to neares family mart but short cut route ya. I reported that that somebody need to see the fan as it not working, until i check out, nothing seems to be done.

It wasn’t easy to communicate with the management through the Expedia chat. But overall, they were very listening and helpful. I would recommend this place to everyone.

Great accommodation but could be improved further.
Overall a great stay. If I had to feedback on the details, wish the water heater was more efficient? Comfortable and clean room with a nice view of the sunset and ocean. The check-in could have been improved too. I walked into the reception room and the ladies who worked there look ‘surprised’ with my presence. It wasn’t until the Turkish manager appeared and brought me to my room. I thought the keycode to the room door could be more secure too? The code is just the number of the room entered twice. Was afraid if my neighbors could just enter my room without my presence. Thank you.

Great facilities if you are vegan and on a detox.
I visited for a 13 night stay with my family. The rooms were cleaned daily as well equipped. The views are amazing. The pool was also clean and close by.

Do not stay here
Do not stay here. I checked in and within an hour I checked out. This is a timeshare, not a hotel. No amenities. No bar. Restaurant closed. Not clean--looks like a place where Russian families come and stay for long holidays. Looks very lived-in. If you stay here, you will regret it. There were no lounge chairs on the balcony, just a table and two chairs. I asked if they could bring a lounger, and they said that the furnishings belong to the owner(s). Do not be fooled by the photos. They do not represent what you will actually get. Stay in Kata--it is fun, and the hotels are great. This place is a couple miles above Kata in the hills. You are literally on a mountain with nowhere to go, no grounds, and the view isn't even that great. I traveled in Phuket for three weeks and this is the only bad review. Trust me, do not stay here.

\Dear Amy, thank you for your review. Kata ocean view it's a residence and not an hotel you are right. It's really impossible that your apartment was without amenities because every apartment has a fully equipped kitchen, bedroom, livingroom and balcony ( table and chairs, sunbed are used only in the suites). Our apartment are well cleaned and absolutely the unit are confortable and suiteble for families, couples and single. All the pictures you can see are made also by guests that's why all the pictures are true. The residence is about 4 km far from Kata beach ( 5 minutes with the motorbike) and these details, about the position, are clearly written in our web site, that's why all peaple that booked their stay with us already know that the residence is on Kata's hill. in the residence there is a restaurant (11am-10pm), juice bar ( 7am-10pm) . The closest 7eleven is far 2 minutes with a motorbike. the view in the residence is amazing everywhere. Trust us, you spent so little time in the residence ( 1hour) a not enough to say that it is a bad place. thank you Kata ocean view

Clean and comfortable stay
We were upgraded to a 2 room apartment. The apartment had a generous balcony facing the ocean with provision for hanging laundry which was really convenient. The toiletries provided were all natural with no chemicals. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with options of natural breeze and use of fans instead of air-conditioning. The accommodation was value for money and included kitchen amenities and dining area. It would be great if phones/public phones linking to the reception are provided for ease of communication with the staff. The vegan restaurant was amazing and unparalleled in Phuket.

dear Tsung Ju, thank you so much for your review. About the public phones, as you know, our residence has apartments and we cannot install phones in each apartment. But we can always comunicate with our guest using our facebook page kata ocean view residence by chat and by video call. we really appreciate your suggestions. we hope to see you again. thank you Kata ocean view team

Bad, bad and bad.
When we arrived at the evening they were no one at the reception and when we called them they didnt answer. We got help from a hotel nearby and the called someone that should come and help us. He could barely speak any english at all. After around three hours we got a apartment to sleep in for the night. We had booked two apartments and we got one! Had to sleep six people in a four people apartment. On top of that it was not even close to what the pictures on the website looked at. We had booked a bigger and more luxorious apartment with jacuzzi on the balcony. The apartment was dirty, no sheets in the bed and dirty and broken towels. When we talked to hotels.com support they even called the hotel and when they started to ask what the problem was they hung up on them and now they refuse to answer. We are trying to get our money back but that will probably not happen. DONT GO TO KATA OCEAN VIEW RESIDANCE.

Fuyez cela ne correspond pas du tout aux photos !
Lorsque nous sommes arrivés on nous a annoncés d’emblée que la chambre familiale au nous avions réservé le n’était pas disponible et on nous a séparés dans deux chambres dont l’une n’avais pas de en lumière dans la salle d’en bain et l’autre le robinet nous est resté dans les mains. Le lendemain on nous a enfin attribué notre 2 bedroom mais l’une des 2 salles de bain ne marchait pas et là TV du salon ne marchait pas. Quand j’ai signalé cela à la responsable clientèle elle m’a répondu que je n’avais qu’à me doucher dans l’autre salle de bain et ne pas utiliser celle qui n’en marchait pas et que pour la TV c’était pas la peine de la réparer car de toute façon il y en a une autre dans la chambre. J’étais sidérée pas la réponse. Nous étions 4 (2 adultes et 2 enfants) si j’ai choisi 2 chambres et 2 sales de bain c’est pour être plus confortable justement. Puis elle a ajouté que les clients précédents ne s’étaient pas plaints donc pourquoi nous ! Donc tant que vous ne dites rien ça va sinon vous êtes un perturbateur. De plus elle s’était montré extrêmement désagréable avec nous car nous aurions dus nous taire visiblement et parlait en criant de nous à son supérieur. Elle manager n’a d’ailleurs pas réagi et a préféré laisser pourrir la situation sans jamais nous aider. Donc pas de TV et pas de douche dans une des 2 salles de bain. Les murs sont sales, draps troués, tables et chaises de terrasse très vieux et sales. Invasions de fourmis dans la cuisine. Les employés ne vous aident pa

Dear Mr Jet, thank you for your review. we can provide 2 bottle of water at the checkin. There is not a bar inside the apartment and drinks are not relaced. for sure we will improve the cleaning service. About the shuttle bus for the beach the last time is 5pm, after this guests can come back with a taxi or tuc tuc. we really appreciate your feedback. Kata ocean view team Kata ocean view Team

Fraai uitzicht van terras. Maar zonder auto?
Slechte service, geen infopakket. Klacht op zondag gemeldt wordt na aandringen pas dinsdag opgelost. Doen niks zonder ok eigenaar appartement. Zou niet onze zorg moeten zijn.

Super dejlige fuldt udstyrede lejligheder
Det er et super dejligt sted, væk fra larm og musik i byen. Dejligt med gratis shuttlebus 3 gange om dagen. Skøn stor lejlighed - rigtig lækker indrettet. Skøn stor altan med markise. Eneste mangel - kunne være en opvaskemaskine.
