About Royal Kamala

Situated in the Kamala area of Phuket, Royal Kamala is a residential-style condominium complex catering to travelers seeking a longer, more settled stay rather than a typical hotel experience. The property suits guests who prefer a quieter, home-like environment, with standout features including private pool access for certain units and a peaceful setting away from the noise of the main streets.

Guests consistently highlight the attentive management team, who are noted for being responsive, helpful, and personally welcoming — going so far as to acknowledge birthdays and personal occasions. The atmosphere is calm and residential, making it well suited to extended stays of several weeks. The location places guests within easy reach of local food outlets, though a vehicle or transport is advisable for reaching the beach and wider Phuket attractions.

This is a quiet and cozy place, away from the noise of the streets. The manager and administrator are very nice, always ready to help, personally congratulating on birthdays and other holidays. We lived here for a year and we liked everything very much, the price for accommodation is reasonable, the rooms are spacious. If I ever find myself in Thailand, I will definitely try to stay here.

I stayed here for 3 weeks from December 19 to January 11, and I certainly wasn't disappointed. There are various complementaries around the place, and we even got our own private pool upstairs! However, there are many minor issues with the place (or perhaps just our room in particular). For one, there's a lot of ants around the place and WILL eat your food if left out in the open (especially if not sealed properly), so I recommend getting something that repels ants. Another thing is that 1.5 weeks into the holiday we got a pool refill, but the water ended up being acidic and irritating to the skin. We did call somebody to help fix it, but they would come on the second week. Unfortunately, the pool remained acidic and we didn't swim in there afterwards. The lights inside also didn't work, but we got that fixed! Fabian's a nice guy by the way, you should talk to him There's also a larger public pool outside, if you're lucky you can catch the lights going on in it: the kid's pool turns rainbow, and the rest turns a random color. Unfortunately we were unable to go in it when the lights were on because we were always out >:/ But the cats outside made up for it, sister named him 'Blacky' for some reason... pretty bland, but he's still cute >u

This place could have been very good but there are simply too many CATS ! We were woken twice each night by Cats fighting and screaming in the night . There were parts of the garden and near the pool that the cats used as a toilet and it smelled so bad we were nearly sick. I dont know why the Management allow the staff to ( barely) take care of so many Cats , so I cant recommend this hotel . ADDIT . My close friend stayed here in Dec '24 and said that the people staying there long term had reported the staff had made a big effort to clean out all the cats a year before which is to be commended. However some did report cat fights again and say cats were starting to return.

Tips for Visiting Hotels & Resorts

Compare OTAs and Direct Rates

Always check the hotel's own website after finding a rate on Agoda or Booking.com. Many Thai properties offer a best-rate guarantee or throw in perks like free breakfast when you book direct.

Pool Villa Doesn't Mean Expensive

Private pool villas in Krabi, Hua Hin, and Chiang Mai start around 2,500–4,000 THB/night — a fraction of Bali or Maldives prices. Search specifically for 'pool villa' to surface hidden gems.

Location Matters More Than Stars

A well-located 3-star hotel often beats a remote 5-star resort. In Bangkok, staying near a BTS or MRT station saves hours; on islands, proximity to the beach you actually want matters most.
