Sawaddi Patong Resort & Spa by Tolani – SHA Extra Plus

Sawaddi Patong Resort & Spa by Tolani – SHA Extra Plus Overview

I’ll be honest – when I first pulled up to Sawaddi Patong Resort & Spa by Tolani – SHA Extra Plus, I wasn’t sure what to expect from the name alone. But you know what? This four-star spot actually surprised me in the best way possible. It’s tucked away from the main chaos of Patong Beach, which means you get that resort feeling without being completely disconnected from everything that makes this part of Phuket fun.

The spa here is honestly where this place shines – I mean, the Thai massage therapists actually know their stuff, not like some of those tourist trap places closer to the beach road. The treatment rooms have this authentic feel with traditional wooden elements, and they use local herbs that make the whole experience feel genuinely Thai rather than some generic resort spa. What I really appreciated was how quiet it stays throughout the day, even when the main pool area gets busy with families. The pools, by the way, are actually well-maintained – no weird chemical smell or that cloudy water you sometimes get at beach resorts.

Location-wise, you’re close enough to walk to the beach action when you want it, but far enough that you won’t hear the tuk-tuks and bar noise at night. I found the staff genuinely helpful with restaurant recommendations too – they pointed me toward this little seafood place that definitely wasn’t in any guidebook but had the best tom yum I’ve had outside Bangkok. The rooms are what you’d expect from a solid mid-range place – clean, comfortable beds, decent air conditioning that actually works (crucial in this humidity), and bathrooms that don’t make you question your life choices. Nothing fancy, but honestly, when you’re spending most of your day exploring or lounging by the pool, that’s perfectly fine. The breakfast spread is pretty standard resort fare, though they do make a mean pad thai at the live cooking station. Just don’t expect anything too adventurous – it’s clearly designed for international tastes, which works for most people but might disappoint if you’re hoping for authentic local breakfast dishes.

  The rooms were great, very clean, mini fridge and lovely balcony. The double bed is two beds pushed together- which didn’t bother us. They have two pools and lots of amenities like a table tennis table and a spa.

• Glenn from United Kingdom (8/10)

  We were going n the probably new part, the South Wing. It was still close enough for reception and dining and had its own pool that whilst smaller, was quieter than the main one.

• Saumya from India (8/10)

  The property location was walkable distance from Patong beach. Resort is well maintained & quite aesthetic. They provided us room in new building which had a separate pool. Room was tidy & well kept.
