Our fourth floor room was really nice and large with a reasonably spacious balcony overlooking the pool and beach. It and the very nice included breakfast made for a great, relaxing 4 day. We used the buffet dinner once and it was very good, copious and easy, but there are great and cheaper restaurants across the street. The pool was good, but hot, so found it more refreshing to cool off in the ocean. There was snorkeling in the rocky headlands at each end of the beach, but the fish and coral weren't special. The drinks around the pool weren't good and were expensive. But nothing could beat the wonderful view from the shade of the terrace overlooking the perfect beach!

In October 2022 we made a booking for Beyond Resort Kata, to stay in February/March 2023. Up to that point the reviews we had seen for this hotel were generally favourable. However, from that point a number of extremely negative reviews started to appear. We were slightly concerned about this, but kept an open mind and decided to make our own mind up when we experienced the hotel for ourselves. I am pleased to say that we were pleasantly surprised how good the hotel was overall, and concluded that many of the reviews were overly harsh. This review would have been entirely positive if it weren’t for one thing. That one thing is the clumsy and ineffective way the hotel have tried to address the sunbed situation. When we arrived in February there was a problem with certain groups of guests hogging the sunbeds very early in the morning, then hardly using them at all during the day. However, later in our stay this problem became much less of an issue, to the extent that by our penultimate day there were some free sunbeds available all day. However, at that point the hotel management decided to act tough on the sunbed situation. They gave everyone a letter setting out the new policy, which not unreasonably stated that any sunbeds left unattended for two hours would have the towels etc removed. What happened next day? When innocent guests were depositing towels around 8am prior to going into breakfast for 30 minutes, staff advised them they couldn’t do so as this was against the new policy! To make matters worse, later that morning staff completely ignored sunbeds that were reserved but had been unoccupied for over 2 hours! By midday on our last day all the sunbeds were reserved but many were unoccupied, so the result of the new policy had been to make things worse not better! I have given verbal feedback to the hotel on how they should be targeting the real offenders (often the same group of people who systematically steal food from the breakfast buffet), rather than taking the easy option and alienating innocent guests who are trying to fairly follow the hotel’s own written policy. Drawing a line under the above, our overall experience at the hotel was excellent. Many reviewers have commented that the hotel is old and tired, but to be fair to the hotel they admit this and are planning to close for refurbishment from April. Although some redecoration is needed, the rooms are large and comfortable, everything works well, the lifts are reliable and fast, the plumbing is efficient, the WiFi is speedy and reliable, everything is spotlessly clean, the breakfast is excellent and the lunchtime food and drink very good quality albeit expensive by comparison with other Thailand (not European) prices. The location of this hotel is superb, right next to a world class beach and with many excellent restaurants within easy walking distance. The best feature of the hotel though is the staff, invariably polite, friendly and helpful. The member of staff who we will always remember is the evening security guard, who always greeted us with a salute, a handshake and a friendly chat, a real star! …

Best beach access on kata beach I give it 4 stars for the location the hotel is large and a little older in style the room was comfortable ocean view the bathroom was okay should be redone not comfortable but clean food at breakfast is okay I would give it a 3.5 out of 5 pool area has a lot of lounges but there is a struggle with the reserving of lounges up front facing the beach apparently people get up at 6:00 am or earlier and take the lounges but there is plenty of others available The stay was good but the hotel could use an updating in a lot of areas however we came for the beach and it did not disappoint

The hotel is well positioned for Kata Beach, which must have once been stunning. It still has white sand and clear blue sea, which is good for swimming, but sadly the crowds and closely packed sun beds all along the beach detract from the experience. The hotel was very busy during our visit. We arrived in our first-floor room at about 10.30pm, after being mistakenly taken to a dungeon-like room on the floor below. By this time, there was no food available in the hotel - room service ended at 8.30pm and the restaurant was closed. The hotel room was fine, if tired and with an unpleasant musty smell. We enjoyed the view of the municipality offices and the traffic from our balcony. However, we failed to get a sun bed in the hotel grounds until about 4.00pm on each of the days we spent there; they were all reserved with towels by 8.00 am. Breakfast was fine, but although there were signs saying 'do not feed the birds' these were ignored and mynah birds were a problem. We didn't use the pool but it looked a bit dismal. This hotel charges four-star hotel prices but does not deliver a four-star experience.…

In need of updating it seems like a 1980’s hotel . Dull hallways still using a key to open doors. On arriving was welcomed with a cold drink taken to our rooms through a very dreary hallways upstairs (no lifts) everything you need in room clean but old looking. We had a coffee when we arrived only enough for one day I asked reception for some more and told you get it replenished next day . Safe didn’t work came and replaced batteries next evening we couldn’t open it was told we would have to wait till morning. Next day given a new safe . Pool towels must have been used for the last 20 years, old and thin I wouldn’t have used them to clean dog . Nowhere to change them so took some off a maids trolley . Never had any trouble getting sun beds . Garden areas could have done with some work weeds in raised beds no plants. Perhaps the man who walked around pool a few times a day could have done some weeding instead of hiding in hallway picking his nose . Breakfast ok nothing special . Overall this hotel is not a four star maybe a 3 at most it wasn’t worth the money we paid they seem to think the view makes it a 4 star. Looked at other reviews and replies hotel seems to always say for last 10 years will endeavour to improve but they have done nothing . It’s no wonder the staff don’t seem to be very welcoming because the hotel isn’t .…

Our first return visit since Covid and it was glorious to be back at Beyond Kata Resort! Amnat and his team are amazing. Service oriented, friendly - there’s nothing they won’t try to do to make your stay a wonderful experience. Amnat is so personable with guests and it creates a culture of gracious hospitality that we have come to know and love. And of course being right on beautiful Kata Beach is unbeatable. We can’t recommend it more highly!! Five stars all the way!
