Very Happy

I have stayed at this property twice now in a pool access room and will return on future visits. Service was amazing and Hotel was exactly what I needed. The breakfast was very good will a good variety of foods. I made the most of happy hour and enjoyed my room by the pool. The staff could not have been more helpful and I felt acknowledged each time I would walk through reception area. I can highly recommend Chanalai Hillside Resort. I was with my good friend on her first visit to Phuket and she thoroughly enjoyed the Resort and the location of the Hotel. Everything we need was closely. Well done Chanalai Hillside and thank you so much for an enjoyable stay.
