Anona Beachfront Phuket Resort-SHA EXTRA PLUS

Anona Beachfront Phuket Resort-SHA EXTRA PLUS Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Anona Beachfront Phuket Resort-SHA EXTRA PLUS, you immediately get that “oh, this is actually nice” feeling. It’s one of those four-star places that doesn’t try too hard but gets the important stuff right. The lobby has this relaxed beachfront vibe — not overly fancy, but clean and welcoming in a way that makes you think you made a good choice.

The Location Sweet Spot

Here’s what I love about this place — it’s right on Thaweewong Road, which means you’re literally steps from Patong Beach without being stuck in the absolute chaos of the main strip. You know how some beachfront hotels are either too isolated or right in the middle of all the noise? This one hits that sweet spot. Couples especially seem to get this — they’ve rated the location 9.2, and honestly, I can see why. You can walk to the beach in under two minutes, but when you want to escape the crowds, you actually can.

The Room Experience

The room I stayed in was exactly what you’d expect from a solid four-star — comfortable bed, decent-sized bathroom, and a balcony that actually had a view worth looking at. Nothing groundbreaking, but everything worked properly, which is more than I can say for some places I’ve been. The air conditioning was quiet (thank goodness), and there’s enough space to spread out your stuff without feeling cramped. I mean, you’re probably going to spend most of your time on the beach anyway, but it’s nice to have a proper retreat.

Breakfast and Practical Perks

The breakfast setup is actually pretty impressive — they do this buffet thing with continental, vegetarian, and American options, so there’s something for everyone. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety, especially the local Thai dishes mixed in with the usual hotel fare. And here’s something that’ll save you money — they have free private parking right at the hotel. If you’re planning to rent a scooter or car to explore Phuket (which you should), this is a huge plus since parking in Patong can be a real headache.

Why Guests Love It

What really makes this place work is that it understands what most travelers actually want — a clean, comfortable base that’s close to everything without the premium price tag of the ultra-fancy resorts. You’re getting beachfront access, solid amenities, and a location that couples consistently rave about. It’s not trying to be the most Instagram-worthy hotel in Phuket, but it delivers on the fundamentals really well. Plus, being in what’s considered the best-rated area of Patong Beach means you’ve got easy access to restaurants, nightlife, and activities without having to plan your whole day around transportation.

• Iveta from United Kingdom (9/10)

  Great location. In front of the beach, next to a little Thai food market. Nice, modern and spacious room with giant bed which was big enough for 2 adults and our 2 little kids. Perfect place to stay for couple of days.

• Gréta from Slovakia (8/10)

  Property was super close to the beach and also managed to stay somewhat quiet during busy Patong nights 🙂

• Danyelle from Australia (7/10)

  Our pool room was a great size and well located. Staff were lovely and helpful. Great location. Restaurant was beautiful.

• Yaszheran from Malaysia (8/10)

  We are a couple. We got the most highest facilities from this hotel the room was fancy and nice. But one of the day we decided to hit the jacuzzi and it didnt function properly the hotel members contacted us so that they can fix it. That took around 2 hours. We had to vacate the room for a while. It’s quite not worth for the money we paid. Technically it was around 15k Thai Bhat. All they did is provided us a lunch for the next day as a compliment with so much restrictions which was we can only choose chicken and porks. No steak was allowed. You ruined our moments in the hotel and this is how they made up.

• Abdulla from United Arab Emirates (8/10)

  It’s near the beach a lot of restaurant around easy to walk
