By the Sea

We come first time the room almost good but we got problem about electric and have to wait 1 hour. for change the room but new room also have problem with water and electric again . we have to sleep without air condition all night.

If you like quiet and being far from Phuket's night life, clubs, tourist shops.etc. the place is located perfectly. We rented a car and drove all around Phuket and I must admit there was no such quiet and peaceful part of it as the Panwa Beach. For the trash in the sea there is also a local.solution as only 15min by walk there is a.clear.beach in the village near by, with all.uou need - beach chairs for rent (50 Bat each), massages on the beach (400 Bat for 60 min), etc. It's also good for children as there is a clean sand bank, no rocks in the water (on the hotel's.beach besides the untidiness there are sharp rocks in the water that makes swimming really dangerous).

Huge dissappoitment at the beginning. The room was not cleaned.properly after previous guests. Plenty of sand and dirt on the floor, stains of sofas, bad smell in the bathroom. There were even garbagge left by previous guests! Outragoeus and unacceptable. Also the fact that the sea is dirty, but it's 90% of Phuket beaches - plastic bottles, cans, old toys, are present on the shore. Don't trust the beautiful photos - we felt deceived as nowhere else before (and we are frequent travellers). As I do understand that the Thailand is dirty and the sea is dirty, but it would be less uncomfortable if they at least attempt to pick up the trash from the shore each morning. These issues totally spoiled the beauty of the space of the appartment and great location ;-( The good news that as we were there 12 days, after the first week something started to change, it looked like a new manager came and they at least wiped out the dirt from our appartment, cleaned toilets and even cleaned the beach, though it happened at the end of our stay. Another problem is that the place is not maintained well, the pool which is clean and they check the water quality each day (and use a lot of chemicals) has broken or fractured tiles in many places. Our child cut really deeply her foot on the broken tile in the pool, so it is not safe unless you were swimming shoes or simply you avoid standing anywhere...
