Chandara Resort & Spa

The location and ambience of this property are wonderful! It is the quietest place we have ever visited in Phuket - away from shopping, nightlife, and busy piers. We really enjoyed the solitude.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Nice amenities. Good location

Nice rooms quite a remote location but close to AO Po marina. Air Con very noisy and had a cockroach as visitor one day but big rooms. A little tired but convenient didn’t use restaurant based on previous experiences

The villas are very spacious and have amazing bathroom amenities!

Stayed by chance after we missed last boat to Koh Yao Yi, however it was a great place for 1 night. The villas were very large and spacious with an incredible private jacuzzi and double bathroom. had a 12 hour sleep on the lovely bed. Staff were friendly and respectful and I would recommend to all others who want to spend 1 night before taking the boat to the islands.

Very excellent reception, food, clean rooms. Beyond expectation for our honeymoon.

What a beautiful location! The room was huge and the facilities fantastic. Staff super helpful and I will definitely be returning for another longer vacation.

We really loved this place! Great views, amazing pool and a wonderful staff. The food at the restaurant was delicious, we ate there for almost every meal. The property is a little dated, it could use a fresh coat of paint and some refreshing of the decor but overall it was an amazing stay!

Large and comfortable rooms, very pleasant helpful and courteous staff. The resort is close to the Marina but somehow isolated. Breakfast is decent.

Very clean, private and wonderful staff. Wonderful location and views. If you are looking for a quiet getaway, this is the spot.

Short one night stay whilst visiting clients in marina next door, big villas great views friendly service.

The hotel has stunning views and a nice infinity pool. Access to the beach is great and is close to the Grand Marina if you are chartering a yacht. The hotel was pretty much void of guests due to the low season and as such, small things were left undone, such as removing dead cockroaches from our room and a giant spider from the toilet. When we asked to use the bicycles the hotel offers, they had no air in the tyres and the attendant seemed reluctant to fill them until we insisted. Bikes were also of poor quality. Restaurant did not serve everything on the menu due to the lack of guests too. Overall, it was fine for one night, but I am unlikely to return.

None of the staff spoke any English so it was challenging to communicate. Our room was leaking from the rain and they gave me some dirty towels to wipe it up. There was 1 bath towel in the room on arrival for 2 people. No hand or wash clothes. This took several calls to resolve. The restaurant had no white or red wine but again couldn’t communicate this. I was finally offered a bottle of sparkling but had to buy the whole bottle. There was no bar or minibar. We did not see one other guest in 24 hours. The whole place is run down and dated. Would not recommend.

We stayed in villa 111 for 6 nights, found it very peaceful and comfortable. Pool villa had great views was generally clean, although maintenance was just average. The only issue we had that really does need improving is the breakfast, we could not eat it as was very poor and budget food just catering for the Chinese guests. Enjoyed the stay but would not return

Stayed there prior to getting on our charter yacht from nearby mariner. Pleasantly surprised re size of our unit, and our private pool. Good 4 poster bed.

We chose to stay in this resort for 1 night due to it's proximity to the Ao Po Grand Marina, affordability and relatively good star rating on Expedia, google reviews, and yelp. Our experience was TERRIBLE. We arrived to be told that we were "upgraded" to a suite with a pool. On first glance we were excited until we started looking around. The resort was basically deserted. The staff spoke next to no english. The 2 tvs in our room were broken. The ceiling in the bathroom was collapsing from water damage. The faucet literally fell off the sink when touched. We chose to suck it up and spray ourselves down with bug spray before we went to bed because we arrived too late to find a new hotel only to wake up at 2 in the morning with food poisoning from the food we ate from their restaurant the night before. My husband got rushed to the hospital for a bacterial infection caused by the food poisoning and both of us needed antibiotics. This hotel looked like it could have been nice 10 years ago but was probably hit by a tsunami and never fixed up. Do not stay here - not worth the money AT ALL.

Chandara is a place to go to meditate and enjoy nature. The Rooms are large and set in a Tropical forest setting with the sounds of wildlife all around. Also located nearby in the Ao Po Marina which is a nice place to visit and enjoy the dockside bar.

The resort consists of discrete villas spread about the central amenities complex and pool overlooking the ocean. The place is really quiet and relaxed - plenty to do around Phuket or do nothing at all.... Really friendly and competent staff, great restaurant, clean and well presented accommodation with WiFi (if you forget you are on holidays).

The 4-poster bed with mosquito netting... huge bathtub... private walled patio... private pool with jacuzzi jets... outdoor shower... all-in-all a very quiet and romantic setting perfect for our Valentine's Day Weekend!

Pontless upgrade to shift us in to a poor room, requested original booked room. Old hotel in dire need of refurbishment, this hotel gets rammed with tour busses morning and night and hundreds of tourists make their way through the hotel to access the tour boats, the hotel has made a temporary pier out of oil drums to accommodate 30 or more tour boats and this is rather noisy in the mornings and evenings. NOT so exclusive or relaxing, an old hotel trying new tricks to make cash, not recommended at all, try another hotel.
