The Surin Phuket

The location is just extraordinary. Secluded access to a beach that is kept spotlessly clean. If you are willing to afford it the beach bungalows are just a dream. The buildings have a certain age, and unfortunately do no feature teak floors, but they are very well maintained.

One thing that does not quite meet expectations are the tiles used in large parts of the public spaces. Rather ordinary concrete tiles rather than natural stone.

Staff is extremely nice and friendly.

Room service could have been more quicker

We stayed in a beach villa for 3 nights.These were spacious and right on the sand. We loved the fact that the resort has its own beach and so accessible. Food was great and while a little pricey was delicious. They will drive you around from top to bottom in the golf cart if you ask as the stairs are plenty. The massage at the spa was one of the best I’ve had. The resort is quite self contained so no need to venture out if peace and quiet is what you are after.

Heaps of stairs and no way to avoid. Surin beach area is also a fairly quiet location. Not sure if we would have got bored with a longer stay.

The old school way of designing resorts. Low density and high quality. Real on the beach rooms with amazing sunset views and beautifully clear water.

A bit of a trek to breakfast but that really only meant you felt less guilty about eating too much.

The quietness. The privacy. The cleanness. The walk-in sea. The breakfast. The Sunday afternoon tea. The SPA.

The SPA is really nice , but a bit pricey.
