The buffet breakfast at The Slate is possibly the best I’ve ever had! Their selection is huge!! I also loved the stylish architecture of the resort. It has a very personal feel, even though it’s large. I will be back.

bliss

Pros: Everything
Cons: Later check out time as standard. It's currently 12noon and they weren't up for accommodating a 2pm request
Location: Nai Yang beach. A short walk to the ocean and a host of bars, massage, shops. Airport 10 mins
Couldn't believe our luck in finding this blissful and secluded resort in the North of the island. An, maybe we were lucky with our timing as it was not that busy. 3 amazing pools, 2 of which are adult only (14 years and 16 years +) one is a good 25m lap pool, another has the poolside bar. Superb rooms, even ours which was the basic one. A decent gym, all kinds of classes - free. Snooker and pool, fabulous restaurants. Sure, you get hit with the 5 star service charges, but if you're smart with your booking a lot can be included. Amazingly relaxing. If you want nightlife and a party lifestyle....this is not for you, but you can get that an hour down the road in Patong.

We wished we could have stayed longer

Pros: We loved the location, grounds and ambience of this resort along with the wonderful helpful staff. Away from the hustle and bustle of Phuket.
Cons: The resort map to aide guest in navigating the spacious grounds.
Location: A 5 minute walk to the local night market and only a couple of minutes stroll to an array of local resuaturants and bars. Right on the beach.
We recently spent two nights at the end of two weeks in Thailand and The Slate, our only regret is that we did not get to stay longer. The location is wonderful, right on the beach and a short stroll to a myriad of wonderful local restaurants. The resort itself has a number of dining options also for those who don't wish to leave the confines of the resort. Breakfast was included as part of our stay, and is certainly something not to be missed. The rooms are wonderfully spacious and well equipped, we felt at home and relaxed from the moment we arrived. The staff were welcoming and attentive and always there to help, in particular the lovely young concierge who was an Irish girl, we cannot speak highly enough of. Nothing was a problem. The entire resort is luxury from the moment you walk in the. The grounds are well maintained, spacious and beautiful. There are three relaxing pools to choose from to spend your day relaxing. One of the pools was being renovated during our stay, this did not impede our stay at all. The biggest decision of the day is which pool you should go and sit by if you cant drag yourself away from the resort. We did the morning tour to the local temple to see the monks, this was run by the resort and was a great experience and would recommend to anyone visiting. I would recommend this resort to anyone who is looking for absolute relaxation in luxury. We will be returning.

Gorgeous hotel close to the beach

The area is less crazy that other more well known beaches however, the closer you venture to the national park the more stunning the landscape. We had an absolute ball at the hotel itself. The kids where thoroughly entertained by the pool, kids club and participated in the kids cooking and boxing classes. The staff were hugely tolerant of the children and made them feel important. The little things the staff noticed and the effort they made to check in with the kids when they saw them was above and beyond. The rooms are gorgeous and the food is amazing. Would recommend to everyone!
