Supalai Scenic Bay Resort And Spa, SHA Extra Plus

Supalai Scenic Bay Resort And Spa, SHA Extra Plus Overview

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first pulled up to Supalai Scenic Bay Resort And Spa, SHA Extra Plus, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect from this four-star property. The name’s a bit of a mouthful, and that “SHA Extra Plus” designation (it’s Thailand’s safety and health certification, by the way) made it sound more clinical than relaxing. But you know what? Sometimes first impressions don’t tell the whole story.

The resort actually surprised me in the best possible way. Sure, it’s not going to blow you away with over-the-top luxury, but there’s something genuinely appealing about how they’ve balanced comfort with that laid-back coastal vibe. The spa treatments – and I mean this – are honestly better than what you’d find at places charging twice as much. I got a traditional Thai massage that left me feeling like a completely different person, and the therapist actually took time to work on the specific knots in my shoulders instead of just going through the motions. The rooms have this clean, modern feel without being sterile, and the beds are surprisingly comfortable. I’m picky about mattresses, so that’s saying something.

What I really appreciated was how the staff seemed to actually care about getting things right. Check-in was smooth (no waiting around for twenty minutes while they “prepared” my room), and when I had a minor issue with the air conditioning, maintenance showed up within fifteen minutes. The breakfast spread isn’t huge, but everything they do have is fresh and well-prepared – the tropical fruit alone made my mornings. And honestly, the location works well if you want to be near the water without dealing with the chaos of the main tourist strips. You’re close enough to explore when you want to, but far enough away that you can actually hear yourself think. The 7.7 rating makes sense to me – it’s solidly good without trying to be something it’s not. Sometimes that’s exactly what you need.

Reviews of Supalai Scenic Bay Resort And Spa, SHA Extra Plus

• Sujith from United Arab Emirates (8/10)

  I had an incredible stay at this property. The location is perfect, offering a peaceful retreat away from the city, but with convenient free shuttle services available. The amenities were top-notch, with spacious, clean rooms and fantastic facilities, including free kayaking and superb swimming pools. The staff, especially GM Mr. Chokdee, were exceptionally polite, helpful, and attentive. And the food? Absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with excellent service and great facilities.

• Polgár from Hungary (7/10)

  Food and the pools were nice.

• Philipp from Germany (9/10)

  The pool and the private beach was nice. The rooms are comfortable but the beds are very hard. The restaurant had a nice atmosphere and nice dishes.

• Anna from Sweden (7/10)

  Only spent less than 20 hrs here as our first stop in Thailand before heading to the islands. It is a nice resort, great views, clean rooms. Nice pool.

• Tania from United Kingdom (9/10)

  This hotel should be getting consistent 5 star ratings, the location is a tropical paradise with palm trees, nature and on a white beach. We stayed in a spacious villa which was amazingly decorated and furnished with a terrace, the pools were amazing, breakfast and all meals were amazing with a wide variety and reasonably priced, a main cost 200 TB about €8, local Chang beer is 140TB. There is a complementary shuttle bus to Phuket town twice a day which sits 11 people but has 18 seats (go figure) you need to book this the day before and is free. The journey takes 1 hour each way due to traffic. Book to ensure you get a place as the staff wont offer it to you. There is a poorly stocked shop on site that sells large bottles of water which i recommend you buy as you are only supplied with 2 small bottles of drinking water per day in your room otherwise you have to pay for more ! A beautiful idylic tropical location, great for relaxing and getting away from the very commercialised town centre of Phuket, highly recommend if you want to feel like you are on the island of Phuket as it was before all the tourists came. We recommend buying a thai sim at the airport and downloading the Grab app which is the Thai and Vietnames equivalent of Uber and works the same way, the transfer to the hotel then costs 700TB instead of 1600TB if the hotel book it for you. Wifi is great .
