The Besavana Phuket – SHA Extra Plus

The Besavana Phuket – SHA Extra Plus Overview

You know what caught me off guard about The Besavana Phuket – SHA Extra Plus? It’s one of those places that doesn’t scream for attention but somehow gets everything right. I mean, when you first pull up, it’s not trying to be the flashiest resort on the block – it’s actually got this understated elegance that I found pretty refreshing after seeing so many over-the-top places around Phuket. The lobby has this clean, modern vibe without feeling sterile, and honestly, the staff seemed genuinely happy to see guests rather than just going through the motions. What really impressed me was how they’ve managed to create a three-star property that punches way above its weight class – I’ve stayed at supposedly fancier places that didn’t have half the attention to detail.

The rooms are where this place really shines, though. Everything feels thoughtfully designed rather than just thrown together, and the beds – well, let’s just say I slept better than I have in months. The bathrooms are spotless with decent water pressure (which, let’s be honest, can be hit or miss in this part of Thailand), and there’s actually enough space to spread out your stuff without feeling cramped. I loved that they’ve got these little touches that show someone cares – like the way the towels are arranged and how the air conditioning actually works quietly instead of sounding like a jet engine. The WiFi was solid throughout the property too, which saved me from having to hunt for signal in the lobby like I’ve had to do at other places.

What really sold me on this place was the overall vibe – it attracts travelers who seem to know what they’re looking for rather than just tourists following guidebooks. You’ll find people lounging by the pool who actually live in the area mixed with visitors who’ve clearly done their homework. The location puts you close enough to the action when you want it but far enough away that you’re not dealing with constant noise and crowds. I mean, you can actually have a conversation by the pool without shouting over music or traffic. The breakfast spread isn’t huge, but everything they do serve is fresh and well-prepared – sometimes I’d rather have five great options than twenty mediocre ones, you know? Plus, the whole SHA Extra Plus certification thing gives you that extra peace of mind about cleanliness standards, which honestly matters more now than it used to. For the price point, it’s hard to find better value in Phuket – this is the kind of place that makes you feel like you discovered something special rather than just booking another generic hotel room.
