Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Centara Kata Resort Phuket from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Centara Kata Resort Phuket is a lush, green retreat featuring three pools, including a main pool with a slide that's popular with children. Guests appreciate the well-equipped gym, sometimes mentioning the Thai boxing class, and the good breakfast with a variety of meats and fruits. The spacious rooms, some offering direct pool access, are generally liked, though a few guests have noted the need for some updates in certain areas. It is close to markets and groceries and offers free beach transfers, although it's a 15-20 minute walk to the beach.
