Selina Serenity Rawai Phuket

Breakfast was delicious the staff is really nice! Kids enjoyed the pool and sunbeds

The property was beautiful and unique because they had activities going on in the villa every day. Definitely perfect for solo travelers. The restaurant on the property gave me food poisoning after eating a raw burger from there. Also took like 30 min to get our drinks the first time. We were done with our food before we got our drinks. We did give it a second chance and they had some better options though. I do recommend staying here traffic in the area isn’t bad, lots of beaches and places to eat in driving distance.

We loved this hotel, and all of the activities that were constantly being put on! Definitely geared towards young travellers! Great food, service was alright, pool was awesome, overall would recommend

If you’re considering this place, just book it. It was very relaxing, and we could have stayed longer.

great stay the room was excellent
great staff very helpful and polite
access to area was nice and meals very gopod
we would stay there again thankyou

Very comfortable rooms albeit a little small given that the terrace is the same size.
Due to the abundance of mosquitoes because of the season, unfortunately, we were unable to make any use of the terrace.
There is a small fridge in the room as this wasn't mentioned in the room description.
One small criticism is that we needed to ask for our towels to be changed but once we did so they were changed frequently.
All in all the hotel was clean, comfortable with friendly, professional staff.
The hotel pool area is in a fantastic beach side location with activities on at various times of the day should you wish to partake.
There are a few good local Thai restaurants only 5 minutes walk away on either side of the road and also a great coffee bar 2 minutes away. The main part of Rawai with a huge variety of Thai and non Thai eateries and Nai Harn is about 10 minutes away in a taxi or Bolt. So, great location too

Wonderful oceanfront view and amazing pool . Like the free cabanas and latge floating mattresses use in the pool. Need to have electronic mosquito killing machines to get rid of the many mosquitos there. The activities are fun and welcoming . They should play popular 70 s to 90s music at the pool rather than the peaceful elevator music . Also turning up the music would be preferable.

This place truly is paradise on earth. So affordable for such high quality accommodation. Will be back for a long term stay very soon.

This place is like nothing else. It’s a must stay

We originally booked a stay in their “compact container cabin” but after two nights decided to upgrade to a larger room. The container (I’m pretty sure it was a converted shipping container) was very small and the bathroom wasn’t very nice at all. It could use a good scrub. The cabin also didn’t include the free breakfast which was surprising considering the price point. The staff were helpful in assisting us to switch to a larger room and we ended up moving to one of the apartment style rooms which was much better although to wifi was spotty at times as we were on the third floor. The breakfast was adequate although I would recommend going earlier as they tended not to refill things in the buffet after around 9:30am even though it ran until 10:30am. The pool was great and the area around it has a lot of good spots to enjoy the sunshine or some food and drinks from the restaurant on site.If you’re looking to work out, their gym is much better than the average hotel gym and rarely busy which was a nice plus. Overall, we enjoyed our stay

Very well maintained property, rooms were clean, food is good, and the staff are very attentive and helpful. It is beach front but, with so many other beaches to explore in the area no one seems to swim in this area... but you could. Overall a very good experience, the hotel is near many POIs.

nice rooms and good view
had ocean front penthouse and 2 bedroom apartment. was massive for just me.

It was ok, not great but not bad.
Acceptable for the price

Everything about this place is 5⭐️ would highly recommend

Just amazing! My first solo trip, and because of Selina, it will not be the last.

Beautiful resort with great amenities especially with shared/dorm style rooms. Amazing breakfast and loved the rooftop yoga!

I’ve visited nearly every Selina, and this one ranks among my least favorites. The coworking chairs are incredibly uncomfortable, and it’s disruptive that guests checking into the units upstairs have to pass through the space. There’s no dedicated quiet area, which is a problem when groups get loud. The restaurant service was inconsistent—every time someone brought me a menu, I ordered something, but they rarely offered one, which is disappointing given the room rates. The dorms could benefit from being designated as either quiet or social spaces to better cater to different preferences. It feels like this property operates as disjointed businesses rather than a single location with a unified vision. If I wanted a high-end experience, I’d go elsewhere for better service; if I wanted a dorm, I’d choose a cheaper option. It’s also strange that this Selina doesn’t offer private rooms with shared bathrooms—a popular, budget-friendly choice at other Selina locations, also very popular in Korea and Japan. Fortunately, these issues seem fixable, so I’d consider returning if improvements are made.

Pros - beautiful property, food at the restaurant is surprisingly good, information on tours and bikes, clean
Cons - quite remote but I prefer quiet

The hotel has a great activities programme - that they put a lot of energy into. Tour booking service (although 3rd party) also great and beautiful pool-beach area.

However, location is not great (unless you will rent a bike; or don't like to explore much).

I didn't feel this was great value for money - our room was very small, breakfast was not included and the buffet was poor (and over-priced) on the one day we tried it. I would recommend anyone staying here to skip breakfast and check out Hock Hoe Lee Coffee for brunch instead!

There was construction going on (offsite, but right next to the hotel) during our visit from early mornings during weekdays. There was an acknowledgement notice, but the hotel offered no compensation.

There is a space but a 200 Baht charge to use the steam room.

The hotel does not provide beach towels.

They offer a complimentary "welcome drink" but only cheap options available and you can only go between 6-7 pm.

It was our honeymoon during the stay - the hotel laid out flowers on our arrival - thanks to the cleaning staff who I expect did it. However, given all the above, I didn't feel the hotel went above and beyond to do anything to make the stay memorable and special. Advance notice and a generous compensation (e.g. free spa, service, 20% off room booking) should be given for the construction work.

I wouldn't stay here again. In hindsight I'd stay in Kata Noi or somewhere in the the quieter SE past of the island.

Beautiful property on the beach. Not very walkable for street food and shopping. There is constitution on both sides of the property that made it difficult to enjoy any quiet time until after 10pm or so.
