Pros:

Got upgraded to a suite which was great for my partner as she likes to sleep longer in the morning. Two pools also very nice, plus the pool is deep enough.

Gutes Hotel mit tollem Frühstück
Pros:

Das Frühstück war super und sein Geld absolut wert. Die Poolanlage ist auch sehr schön. Fussläufig war alles gut erreichbar. Sehr empfehlenswert ist der Katamarkt mit einer super Auswahl an allen möglichen Essen und Getränken.

Cons:

Die Zimmer sind schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen und sollten nach und nach modernisiert werden. Das die Poolzeit bereist 19 Uhr vorbei ist.

Ok for short stay
Pros:

Good position in regards to shops and places around to eat. We stayed for 4 nights and for this was perfect. It’s very dated and lots of broken things but the pool is nice, staff are so friendly, breakfast is ok. Food market down the road is great in the evenings. In the room is a big fringe so you can stick up with bits from the shop

Centara Kata Resort Phuket - recommended!
Pros:

Spent a glorious week at Centara Kata Resort. It is value for money. Staff was friendly and professional. Food was delicious. They accommodated my gluten free requirement and Chef was available daily to ensure no mistakes were made. Two great theme shows offered - cabaret and thai dancing in the week. Rooms are neat and beds are very comfortable with a lovely balcony looking onto pool. They have a quiet pool for adults to swim and 2 family pools available with a pool bar. Happy hour for cocktails 16.00 - 18.00pm every day with tasty cocktails and nice variety offered. 15 min walk to beach or free transport provided on the hour. Great place and experience overall.

Thank you for a fabulous holiday
Pros:

I cannot thank the management, and staff for all your help in making us complete welcome.
The only little pointer is the guys at the pool bar should treat all guests with the same quality of service ie if they tip or not.
I normally would tip at the end of my trip.
Other than this I would highly recommend and would be returning to a Centara property for our annual holiday in 2027.
Manager fablous, front desk fablous, room service fablous, breakfast absolutely loved it, theme nights fantastic

Cons:

Service staff at the pool bar
