Gaze upon magical sunsets across the azure Andaman Sea from Orchidacea Resort’s stunning hillside location. This unique spot is perfect for a romantic retreat, with the fine white sands of Kata Beach just a few minutes wander down the hill. Spend a luxurious morning by the pool, before an afternoon’s Thai massage and a freshly squeezed juice from Papillo Pool Bar. The gardens are dappled with brightly coloured orchids, making this a beautiful place to relax and let your worries drift away in the sea breeze. 2 decadent restaurants await when it’s time to dine, serving an explosion of exceptional Thai flavours alongside international dishes for a taste of home. Later, you’ll rest your head in a spacious room featuring all the essential modern comforts. It’s worth spending the extra on a sea view room as the perspective from your private balcony while you sip a sundowner will take your breath away. For a tranquil tropical break in one of Phuket’s most authentic areas, Orchidacea Resort is set to welcome you to the real Land of Smiles.

The hotel is lovely and clean, with a good breakfast selection, though it could be even better. I know cheese is rare, but having some options would have been nice. Small additions like chocolate sauce, jam, or peanut butter for pancakes would also be great. While there are plenty of "food" choices, the "breakfast" selection could be a bit more varied,
The location is excellent, very close to the beach, lively but not overly crowded. The only downside is that since the hotel is on a hill, many heavy cars and motorbikes struggle to climb it, creating quite a bit of noise, which can be a little disruptive. Fortunately, our room was at the very top, so we didn’t hear much, but near the pool, the noise was noticeable. Guests staying in lower rooms might find it bothersome.
Another highlight of our stay was the stunning view from our room. We got a big room with ocean view, with very comfy beds (1 XL king, and one twin), and waking up to the ocean stretching out before you was breathtaking ✨️
The rooms are very clean, and the service is excellent. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. They also provide a shuttle from the lobby to the higher rooms, which is great since the incline is quite steep. You can request a ride at any time, whether heading up or back down to the lobby/breakfast area.
Also the pool bar and hotel restaurants are very nice, though quite pricey :D
Overall, it’s a clean and comfortable option with good service. If you can, definitely go for the sea-view room and go to beach as often as you can!

Lovely hotel, the rooms were clean and in good working order.
Hotel staff are among the nicest we've seen in Thailand and go out of their way to help. Very friendly. The pool bar staff ensure a drink is always available, especially at happy hour, where some great cocktails can be enjoyed along with beers wines and regular spirits.
A comprehensive food menu also available at the pool or room via phone or app, staff.
A short walk to all amenities and between the two main beaches in Kata. Located up and on a short hill. Requires a bit off leg work to and from hotel and rooms.
The pool was well maintained and we never struggled for a sun lounger. One of the few hotels that doesn't have them reserved with towels from 6am.
A good size pool with a 1.8m depth at one end. And a jacuzzi jet area at the other. A smaller kids paddling pool for the small ones.

Great hotel, fabulous location being right in the town. Staff were great, very helpful. Breakfast not the greatest but there will be something for everyone. No sid von in the restaurant, only fans. The steps! Oh my goodness, do not book here if you have had joint replacements or arthritis etc. there is a shuttle to and from rooms but it doesn’t take you right to your room, you still need to negotiate many steps particularly coming back to the hotel and just getting to reception to get the shuttle. Of course the trade off are the beautiful views from the sea view rooms which are very well appointed. The whole place is very clean.

Amazing experience at Orchidacea Resort!
From the very first moment, we received a warm welcome. The food, especially the breakfast, was delicious and varied—there was plenty of choice for both us and the children. The rooms were cleaned daily, and the location is simply perfect: within five minutes, you’re on a beautiful beach, surrounded by cozy restaurants. Highly recommended!

Great Staff they make your stay enjoyable. Rooms are big! A sofa would have been nice in the room. Sea view rooms are a hike so you will get fit haha. There is a shuttle service that can take you up the hill. Breakfast was awesome, very tasty and Thai cuisine. Access from the airport via bus get off at kata palm and then 10 min walk to the hotel. Overall I recommend.
