Baan Vanida Garden Resort

The room ("deluxe") was lovely, on the 5th floor of the new block overlooking the nearby hill. The hotel staff were very attentive. The breakfast buffet was good. Late-checkout for up to 6 hours at 100 Baht per hour was very nice.

The TV was the only disappointment: we had a lovely room, but the TV was a bit small, and seemed stuck in some "display" mode: every 5-10 minutes, a quarter of the screen was taken up by the TV's model's specifications, as if it were still on sale.

We thought it was lovely get away of beautiful gardens and peaceful very relaxing after a big day out the pool was great and the staff lovely. Walking distance to anything you needed or wanted not far too the beach thanks was awesome stay?

-

Lush beautiful gardens and wonderful facilities! The staff - especially in the treatment rooms, the cleaning and restaurant - were amazing. The rooms/little villas are very clean. The pool is shallow but gorgeous and peaceful. There is some road noise, but you soon tune it out in favour of bird calls all around. Some days I spent most of it on the complex and I loved it. The location is good but definitely walk the back way into town to avoid the busy road. I was the only Brit here, Karon is more for Russian and German tourists, but I did not feel out of place. Massages were lovely. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and I already miss it!

All in all, the hotel was fine, the pool is open until 9pm, they room was clean and quiet.

Staff was not very friendly, they wanted to charge us 100 bht for every hour we stayed after 12pm, also they asked to pay for the hotel by credit card and up until now every hotel I payed I had no problem but this time they told me that payment didn't proceed and I need to pay 3% for a transaction.

Loved the traditional style of the hotel, the friendly atmosphere, the gardens, and the pool.The restaurant was very reasonable, and the food was very fresh and tasty. Lovely ladies giving massage treatments were very professional.

Quietness and natural beauty

bathroom was not clean.12-13 minutes walk to the beach

Lovely rooms pleasant staff nice pool area and restaurant with great food

A bit far out from the main area and away from beach

Not worth it

The Staff are rude and racist…We lost some things in their room and they did not make an effort to help investigate…Their was an old lady who was extremely rude.They are not proffesional and were unkind with a bad attitude and even at some point we felt they were gossiping and pointing at us

The pool was lovely. The gardens were beautiful. The receptionist helped us to get a much needed fan. Close to lots of places. The beach was super busy but quiet in the early morning when we went for an early swim.

The room was super tired. The wardrobe door was broken. The air conditioning was old and not so good. Bed was hard and pillow lumpy.

Beautiful gardens fantastic massages excellent value at 300 baht for an hour Thai massage- good location , lovely pool mostly Russian guests

Initially reception staff not very helpful but got better

Beautiful jungle, nice swimming pool, quiet

Air conditioning not working first night, so very warm, but then it was fixed after that

Swimming pool and many plants around

Facilities are quite old, but usable

Very dated room- awful shower. Staff were ok- massage staff miserable. Excellent pool

Room- dated not very clean bathroom was not very comfortable

It’s just a 10-minute walk from the beach. The room has a balcony with a great view, and the hotel garden is very well-maintained. The room is very clean, and there are different towel animals on the bed every day. The hotel’s spa massage is very comfortable, and it’s the most comfortable one I’ve experienced in Thailand.

There is a bit of a musty smell. You could put some air freshener in the room.

I enjoyed my stay in this hotel in January 2025. The purpose of my visit was a complete relaxation and restoring the energy, and this place is perfect for that - quite room with a nice balcony and great view, AMAZING territory with garden, nice swimming pool, and massage right there. Several minutes walking distance to the Karon beach, which is one my favorite in Phuket, everything you might need like 7/11, tourist facilities are just around the corner. I especially want to note that I was traveling alone, and I felt absolutely safe in the hotel and the area around. I will plan my next stay in Phuket at this hotel again, highly recommended.

While wifi connection works ok in the common areas, it works very bad in the room - for holidays I considered as a kind of a bonus, but if you need to do some work, be ready to use mobile internet in the room. Also while the room was quite clean, no dust, clean shower etc, bedsheets sometimes were not perfectly clean

Everything was amazing! The service was great, the whole resort is beautiful, the pool is nice, had the best massages in town in the lobby, and a wonderful restaurant! perfect and inexpensive!
