Keemala

Keemala is a very special place. First we were not sure if we should choose the hotel as it is not on the beach but we wanted something different after our stay in another hotel on the beach. We did it right. The stay was amazing. After on nicht we moved from a tree pool villa into a bird‘s nest pool villa as it was more convenient for us during these unusual rainy days and we liked the bird‘s nest more as it is on one level and not a maisonette like the tree villas. You have to know that the tree villas also don’t have much shadow when it is sunny. But what makes this hotel so so special is the fact that the stay seems more like a retreat. The complimentary YOGA and meditation classes of DANIEL are exceptional good, not like the normal yoga classes some hotels offer as acitivities. Daniel is an outstanding teacher and makes an effort to have each day a different but inspiring class. Our butler MARCH (besides that he is a very kind person) was ensuring that every need was met with precision and care. He was always available for us. The FOOD in the restaurant was exceptional with a huge menu for healthy, clean dishes, mouthwatering Thai, delicious Indian cuisine and some international dishes like eg a waguy beef on a salted stone (one of the best we have ever had). The menu won’t get boring even if you stay 2 weeks in Keemala. Maybe the only thing in the restaurant, that for Europeans the air condition is a little bit too cold. But really amazing food. And last but definitely not least, the SPA. Oh my god, the normal treatments are in general very good, but if you really want to have something very special and outstanding then do the bodywork massages/experience with MASTER NOK, she is the epitome of a healer. We’ve never had this kind of bodywork/massages before. My husband is painfree after 3 sessions for the first time in years. My stress level is almost next to zero, I cannot believe it. We are really thinking to come back next year again to recover and enjoy. See you next year!

We have just completed a 3 night stay at Keemala for our Honeymoon. Having stayed around Thailand for nearly 2 weeks we chose Keemala as our last stop for something special. We were not disappointed, it is an outstanding place! The layout and build of the resort is very impressive. We chose to stay in the tented villa which has an fantastic view over the bay and the hotel grounds. The location towards the top of the hill lent itself to ultimate privacy. It costs a fair amount to stay here but was totally worth it. We found the food extremely good and the level of service to be exceptional. Getting around the place is also easy with their very prompt buggy service. The spa facilities are also very well kept, private and luxurious and there was plenty on offer of you want some spa action! One thing to note about the tent is that you can hear the wildlife and trees blowing and rain, all of which adds to the experience. However, you can also hear the cars and motorbikes across the valley which for light sleepers, could be an issue. We didn't mind though! The main highlight of our stay here though were the staff! When i say staff I mean all of them, from the security at the gate to the cooks at the kitchen. Nothing was too much trouble, they were very polite, attentive and caring and we felt like the centre of their world whilst we were there. Melon, our villa host and assistant deserves a particular mention. He was so kind, thoughtful and was always at the end of the phone and WhatsApp answering any questions we had. He would also make recommendations of activities locally and would stop to greet us whenever he saw us. He was simply fantastic and a brilliant host! He is a credit to the Keemala resort and made us feel so welcome! We will definitely visit again!

A beautiful place for solitude, relaxation, and clearing your mind. The staff are all welcoming, kind, and helpful. I would like to thank Sister Maithai for her assistance and service, ensuring we had everything we needed. I highly recommend this place. It is beautiful, the services are excellent, and it is close by. I only have two minor points: please install heating in the swimming pool because it is very cold, and it would be great to have a small supermarket in the center of the place. Goodbye, and see you next time.

Keemala resort is our best choice of this phuket travel, and Mai so warmly invited us to this lovely resort.

We had a gorgeous time at Keemala in a clay pool lodge. We had been doing lots of travelling prior to our stay here and this hotel honestly finished off our honeymoon perfectly. The breakfasts are incredible and we had it in the room every morning by the pool. The nature at the hotel was brilliant, we had sun birds by our room, peacocks and we loved the duck cottage. The spa is lovely and the free classes by Dan are brilliant. We attended the meditation and breathing class and loved it. Raya from housekeeping was also incredible, working around our schedule and always leaving a special touch to the room each day! However, our biggest thank you and the highlight of our stay was being looked after by the lovely and incredible Arif! What an incredible host. Nothing was too much to ask, he really made our stay incredible and even ran us a romantic bubble bath! Brilliant hotel, brilliant staff and a brilliant stay.
