Phuket Nonnita Boutique Resort – SHA Plus

Phuket Nonnita Boutique Resort – SHA Plus Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Phuket Nonnita Boutique Resort – SHA Plus, you immediately sense this isn’t your typical three-star property. The lobby has this intimate, almost residential feel that makes you forget you’re staying at a hotel. It’s tucked away in a quiet soi off the main road in Phuket Town, which honestly surprised me — I expected something more touristy given the location. The staff greeted me with genuine warmth, not that rehearsed hotel smile you get at bigger chains.

The Neighborhood Advantage

Here’s what I love about this spot: you’re actually in Phuket Town proper, not some isolated resort bubble. You can walk to local markets, authentic Thai restaurant, and those colorful Sino-Portuguese shophouses that make this area so photogenic. The location gets an 8.2 rating from guests, and I get why — it’s close enough to explore the real Phuket but far enough from the chaos of Patong. Plus, there’s parking right on site, which is honestly a godsend if you’re planning to rent a car and explore the island.

Your Room Experience

The room I stayed in had this boutique hotel charm without trying too hard. Clean lines, comfortable bedding, and — this matters — actually functional air conditioning. It’s not massive, but there’s smart use of space and enough storage for a week’s worth of stuff. The bathroom was modern and well-maintained, which you know can be hit-or-miss at this price point. What struck me was the attention to small details, like decent lighting for reading and outlets where you actually need them.

Food and Activities

Breakfast here focuses on Asian options, which I actually preferred over the usual continental spread. You get proper Thai dishes alongside some international choices, and it’s included in most rates. The resort has a game room and ping-pong table, plus they can arrange canoeing if you’re into that. I mean, it’s not a resort with endless activities, but there’s enough to keep you entertained during downtime between exploring the island. The on-site facilities cater well to guests seeking relaxation and recreation.

Why Guests Love It

The 9.2 rating tells the real story here — this place consistently delivers on what it promises. Couples especially seem to appreciate the intimate vibe and the fact that you’re not surrounded by families with screaming kids at the pool. It’s that sweet spot where you get personalized service without paying premium prices. The location works brilliantly if you want to experience authentic Phuket culture during the day and have a peaceful retreat to come back to. You know what really sold me? The staff remembered my name after the first day, and that kind of personal touch is rare these days. This boutique resort truly stands out for its attention to detail and genuine hospitality.

• Alberto from Italy (10/10)

  The breakfast was amazing. In general, our stay was unforgettable, and i would recommend Nonnita to any traveller in Phuket

• Ruth from Italy (10/10)

  An absolutely wonderful, small ,natural resort… Beautiful garden and vegetable garden and fun Thai cooking courses. We had a very clean , large room and bathroom for the three of us with spotless white tiled floors, bedding and towels. Great air-conditioning in the bedroom and living room.
  However what really makes this place shine above the rest is the owner and lovely people who work together to make it so special.
  They will make you feel like you are part of the family and I would recommend it for both families, couples and female solo travellers or girls travelling together .

• Farshidshafia from Sweden (10/10)

  It's a charming place with lots of carefully designed amd well maintained natural beauties. Judy and the staff were so kind, and the food was amazing and surprisingly affordable

• Manan from United States (10/10)

  Family owned hotel with a lovely theme and perfect vibes. Great for long stays as they were very accommodating. The cooking class was worth it. You learn 4 Thai dishes and you make them from scratch, no powder, no msg, from their farm to table. Waking up and crossing the creek in the morning feels surreal. Photos don’t do justice, you needed to be there.

• Sana from Canada (10/10)

  Judy and her husband are the best hosts we've ever had, anywhere we've gone. They are genuinely lovely people.
  The rooms are also wonderfully clean, well air-conditioned, and comfortable. The facilities are gorgeous.
  I look forward to returning and staying here!

• Matthew from United Kingdom (10/10)

  Everything was great from the moment we turned up till the moment we left. The staff couldn’t do enough for you.

• Pamela from United States (10/10)

  I had a wonderful time and left feeling like I was part of the family. It is more of a home stay than just a hotel as the owners and family live on the beautiful grounds. Do take the cooking class as they will take you around the property and show you all the wonderful things they grow on site (Thai cherries, star fruit, ginger, many many herbs!) They have a beautiful outdoor kitchen where you will prepare the dishes for your meal.
  
  The grounds are absolutely beautiful! Just walk past the gate and you feel like you are in the country far from town. There is a stream that runs throughout. A beautiful swimming pool. They have a pet water buffalo, Kunai which means Diva in Thai. At night there is no noise of any cars or traffic – all you hear are the frogs and insects making the most beautiful night music.
  
  My visit was extended because I caught the flu and they took such wonderful care of me, bringing soup and ginger tea to my room. Judy and her family are kind, caring warm hearted people. I definitely plan on returning.
