My recent stay at Centara Grand Beach Phuket was truly delightful! The hotel itself is stunning, with beautiful surroundings, well-kept facilities, and an overall relaxing ambiance that made it a perfect getaway. I want to especially Tony, Front Office Manager, who was exceptionally kind and attentive throughout my stay, ensuring everything was seamless and enjoyable. I highly recommend Centara Grand Beach Phuket for a wonderful stay with excellent service. Thank you to Tony and the entire team for a memorable trip!

A well established (older) hotel and resort with conferencing facilities. Families welcome, with a smaller adults-only pool also available. Pool depths are 1.3m constant, plus there are jacuzzi extensions to the pools (not hot tubs), offering several options to spread out. A big buffet for breakfast with a wide variety of cuisines including plenty of fresh tropical fruit. There are several restaurants and bars otherwise. I found the vegetarian choices (pizza, pasta, salad) a bit limited and it would have been nice to see more Thai dishes. but the staff were very willing to prepare something when asked. When I had a problem the management was very quick to respond and make sure everything was good. We stayed in a standard room (Deluxe) and it was perfectly fine and included twin beds, a sofa and balcony. Though it had some quirks: because the bathroom (full bath, separate shower, single washbasin), can be opened to the bed area with sliding doors, moisture collected on the bedside floor.
A big caveat of this hotel is that the beach is red flagged (no swimming) due to a strong rip. It's a nice beach otherwise, though it gets plenty of small plastic trash.

Had a fantastic stay at Centara Grand Beach Phuket! The beachfront location is unbeatable, offering stunning views and easy access to the sand and sea. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with great amenities. We especially loved the pool area and the variety of dining options available. The staff were friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. It’s the perfect spot for a relaxing getaway or a family holiday. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing stay at Centara Beachfront Hotel, Phuket! This luxury property is perfect for a relaxing getaway, and since we visited during the off-season, we got an incredible deal at just ₹5700 per night. We booked a standard room (not sea view), but were pleasantly surprised to find that even our room had a partial sea view—watching the sunset from our balcony was such a treat!
The staff were friendly and helpful, and the hotel's app made accessing room amenities very convenient. The pool area is superb, featuring water slides, a water park, and even a lazy river with tubes and a mini waterfall. We had a blast diving and sliding around! The property also has two large swimming pools, making it ideal for both families and couples.
Situated in a tranquil part of Karon Beach, the hotel offers a peaceful retreat, though it's not in the busy Patong area. If you're looking for markets or a more lively scene, you'll need to take a cab. Overall, it’s a beautiful property with fantastic facilities—highly recommended for a quiet and luxurious stay!

DON’T STAY HERE! My whole family have been unwell shortly after arriving .The only food and beverage consumed had been from the hotel. We have met several other families while here and are experiencing the same symptoms. The buffet dinner was below average.
Poor Quality of food and a breeding ground for bacteria.
The atmosphere around the pool area was zero. The pool didn’t open until 10 am which was strange for a 5 star resort.No music, most staff not smiling or happy.
The beach is dirty full of rubbish.
They no longer offer shuttle bus to town and it is expensive to go out of resort freely.
The rooms wear large and first glance appear clean but are very dirty. Mould and grim all over shower but hard to see as it is marble. The bathroom smells. Finger prints all over the sliding door.” DIRTY. “
Although the grounds are lush and very pretty I can see a big decline in quality and service overall since last visit. Very disappointing and sad to see a great hotel being badly managed.
