About V Beach Resort

Situated along Highway 4233 in Kathu, V Beach Resort operates as a budget-level resort hotel in one of Phuket's more accessible inland districts. The property's location provides reasonable proximity to the island's beaches and the broader range of dining, shopping, and entertainment options found throughout the Kathu area, making it geographically convenient for travelers exploring Phuket on a tighter budget.

However, travelers should approach this property with realistic expectations. Visitor accounts consistently raise concerns about room cleanliness, maintenance standards, and service reliability. Reported issues include unclean rooms at check-in, faulty bathroom fittings, poorly functioning air conditioning, and problems with pool safety. Guests have also reported overbooking incidents and room allocation disputes that were not resolved satisfactorily by staff. These patterns suggest the property may not yet deliver a consistent or comfortable stay.

Reviews from Google

Budget hotel that is run down. Dangerous pool, half stuck on tiles with edges sticking out and no barriers. Pools is very deep, shallow bit is small. Saying that, today they started repairing/ renovating the place, so maybe it will be much better soon. Rooms are dated but clean,. Ground floor door locks could be opened with a sneeze. But no issues with security, plenty of CCTV cameras. Location, 30 mins from town ( heavy traffic), about 300 baht. Tuk tuks are a rip off, wanting 500-1000. Use Grab or local app Bolt. A few good restraunts nearby and a 7-11. Staff were very good, any issues we had, they sorted it quickly .I f you are wanting a budget hotel. Then this is the place for you.

The place is good if you’re looking for a budget-friendly option. However, we booked a pool view/garden view room, and instead we were given a room with a wall view. When we raised this issue, we were told that no other rooms were available, which shows that booking in advance with specific amenities is not guaranteed here. We also requested a chair or stand to dry wet clothes, which is usually provided in all rooms, but not in ours. I followed up with the staff continuously for two days, and each time they said it would be done in “30 minutes.” Unfortunately, those 30 minutes turned into two days (or more).

The room service was very poor and slow. The room was not clean when we checked in. The bathroom fittings were leaking, which made the stay uncomfortable. The air conditioner was not working properly, especially at night. They also did not provide sufficient drinking water for guests. Overall, the maintenance and service need serious improvement. Not satisfied with the stay.

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.

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.
