The Surin Phuket

The Surin is a beautiful hotel situated on a hill leading to the beach. The bungalows are extremely comfortable and spacious. There is a lot of walking and stairs to get to the bungalows or to anywhere really, but if you don’t mind that it is a wonderful resort that I would highly recommend. The staff is amazing, upon arrival you will receive cool, drink, cool towel and a beautiful jasmine bracelet along with fruit in your room cookies on your table every night, and a wonderful stay. The food at all the restaurants is delicious along with the wonderful drinks from the bar. We really had no complaints at all. I would highly recommend the Surin in Phuket.

Wonderful and relaxing place to stay in Phuket. The accommodations far exceeded our expectations and made our stay even more enjoyable. A big thank you to the staff welcoming us, housekeeping providing delicious treats each evening, and the breakfast and restaurant staffs for providing delcious meals.

We stayed at The Surin Hotel Phuket at the beginning of November 2024. This is one of the best hotels we ever stayed, and by far the best beach hotel. We were super happy with everything and would recommend anybody, who visits Phuket, to stay at the Surin if you have the budget. I already told several of my friends and colleagues about it. The hotel has quite a few guests but you never feel it. I had a feeling of a small boutique hotel. We stayed in a Hillside Cottage. You get a very nice view of the beach through the palm trees. There is a lot of privacy since nobody walks in that direction. Downside is that you might need to walk a bit up and down when you visit the beach or restaurants, but you are closer to the massage area. We didn't mind at all since the walks are very panoramatic. Rooms are spacious, clean, quiet and you get flowers and fruits in the room and nice smelling candle in the bathroom. You can also hear the waves at the beach from your terrace. There are two restaurant. They are both great and we didn't even want to go eat outside. The set Thai menu at the Beach restaurant was the best meal we had in Thailand. Breakfast was also great with many great options. Although, food and drinks are on the pricier side. The service was actually 6/5. It was the best service I had in a hotel in a very long time. They almost read our minds. At the beach they always ran to help us set up the sunbeds, gave you as much towels you wanted. At the reception, they helped you out with any requests you had. I would like to highlight Tom from the reception and Sam (Sampiyapong) who is the beach manager and Muay Thai coach. Both went far and beyond to make us feel comfortable at the hotel. Lastly, the location of the hotel is great. It is like a little oasis in otherwise busy beach town. You cross a little hill and you have a quiet private beach that offers pretty good snorkelling opportunities and you can also have fun in the waves. It is also possible to still swim during low tides, which is great and might be a problem at some other places in Phuket. Sunsets at the beach & restaurants are very nice too. Only downside is that Surin Beach is not that well connected with the rest of the island and streets are congested. But you don't want to leave this hotel anyways :-). Thank you The Surin Hotel staff for a wonderful experience.

3 reasons why I stay at Hotel The Surin again again again Super warm hospitality😊 - Always a warm welcome home.😊 I was there for 14 nights. There’s some magic to this hotel, the vibes are so good, you got a private beach it’s one of the most beautiful beach I have visit in Thailand. The breakfast is awesome, the staff really giving me very positive and good vibes and that the reason why I’m back here over and over again. So, I’ll share my secret with you. It's a huge swimming pool, a private beach as I defined it, and the sunset view. When you go to Sunset Restaurant for dinner, the sunset view is something that you want to always come back for. From my cottage I see little of the sea, it's all very nice and of high privacy and quality, the surroundings is so clean and well maintained, is something that you want to come back to as well. Then the second reason is the service. It’s the staff I think there are very low turnover at the property. All the staff are very helpful and friendly - it feels like a second family to me🙏. Every time I come back, they greet me welcome home. They know I’ve been there before you know. I know the staff and it’s so friendly you just know you really feel like you’re coming home, and you want to be back. The third reason is something that may be a little bit interesting is their restaurants, which are so comprehensive, the food here is so excellent good. So, you know the staff, the view of the beach and you know the food there is all fantastic. Are the reasons why I come back again again again😊 ….

Let's start with the ultimate highlight. The beach that The Surin is on is pretty much the best in all of Phuket. Some might argue that there are nicer ones but this is one that is nearest to town and the airport. The resort itself has a bit of a 4 star feel, but the staff are really nice. Only two main restaurants, Sunset (which serves the poolside menu), and the Beach restaurant (Thai). If you're staying for multiple days you might feel that there is a lack of options. Rooms very comfortable. Would just caution that there are many steps in this resort. If you cannot physically handle steps, avoid!
