This is a lovely hotel set in beautiful grounds. We had a large villa type room with a plunge pool. The room itself was very spacious and clean, it also came with a good coffee machine. The bed was very comfortable and the air con worked well. The pools were both lovely and had plenty of sun beds. If you have a premium room you have access to a separate pool which has cushions on the sun loungers. There is a large and well equipped fitness centre. The staff at the hotel are lovely and we left our phone charger and adapter in the room accidtally when we checked out. We dropped by a week later on the off chance they had it and they did, special thanks for Bee for helping us with that (not sure if that's the correct spelling). I'd definitely stay at this hotel if I return to Phuket, I really liked the property and it's location. Just outside the hotel there's an amazing restaurant called 'Elephant cafe by Tan'. I definitely recommend eating here and doing one of the cooking classes. Round the corner from the hotel is a massage place called 'Chok Dee'. We went a few times, it's the best maasage I have ever had in Thailand, definitely a must visit.

Stayed at the Paradox Hotel from the 14th of May until the 21st .... 7 nights in total. The superior room was spacious and clean over looking the Pool from the balcony with good quality wifi widely accessible. The entrance, looking out, had a nice view of the mountains. The breakfast buffet was extensive with the standard western options and an array of excellent Thai or Asian dishes rotated daily. All the staff were friendly and helpful and a special shout out to Bonvey and Jon who greeted us with warmth and good cheer each morning. The beach was just over a 5 minute walk from the room and took us past mint bar which also has good food and music. We often frequented this establishment in the evening for a night cap and good tunes. The staff here were excellent. Shout out to Usanee and Chitanupong. A short distance walk from the hotel was some great Thai food 1) Elephant Cafe by Tan 2) Louis Kitchen 3) Jin Being Monsoon season the sea was quite turbulent so best to be a confident swimmer or stick to the pool. The Gym is adequate and there is a recreation area with table tennis. Excellent.
