Maybe we shouldn't have come after the idyllic Koh Yai Noi...and this isn't the most commercial part of Phuket . First impressions were friendly but a bit shambolic; they were trying to set up for Christmas Eve. The roof terrace was a real non-starter- deserted and windy with half finished lighting draped over the chairs. The "pool" was two very... More

This place is a very good value for overpriced Surin Beach. Maybe it doesn't look nice from outside, but rooms are really OK. Big, very clean, nice beds, friendly people - what else do you need? This hotel is very close to the beach. Their breakfasts are pretty poor, but for us it wasn't a problem. More

This is a great little hotel, close walking distance to a nice, chilled beach in Phuket. It is located in Surin, which is not party city but is nice, and most of the hotels nearby are top notch, expensive 4 & 5 star resorts, but this one feels more family run and closer to local restaurants etc. Cons - Shower...

Breakfast was very good each morning and very consistant. Benyada Lodge has The only thing I would say is that the shower water pressure is low but a... More

My wife and I stayed at the Benyada Lodge at the recommendation of a friend who lives in Surin Beach. He said it's the best place for the price (approx. $65/night with a internet deal) and he described it as "basic". Compared to the other hotels in that area, which charge $165/night or more, it was a deal. However, you... More

We were there for 11nights and so had too much time to notice the flaws. There is no lift which would be a problem for the less able- ask for a low floor. The cleaning of the bedrooms lasts all day with piles of laundry along all corridors from 9 to 5. We never saw a manager or owner. But... More
