Morakot Restaurant serves up an extensive breakfast buffet to start your day, alongside a variety of international and local dishes for lunch and dinner. For those who enjoy the sizzle of the grill, the Spice Trail offers fresh seafood and premium meats in a relaxed setting. You can also enjoy a refreshing cocktail or a chilled juice without leaving the water at the poolside swim-up bar, where the sea breeze adds a special touch to your afternoon drink.

Pools and Spa

The resort features two distinct outdoor swimming pools, each offering a different vibe. You can take a dip in the pool surrounded by tropical gardens or head to the one with the best views of the bay. If you are looking for total relaxation, the wellness area offers a range of traditional Thai massages and beauty treatments. Please note that the use of the Spa centre and any treatments are subject to an additional charge.

Beach

You’ll find the beautiful Kata Beach within easy walking distance, approx. 5 minutes from the resort entrance. This stretch of coastline is famous for its clear waters and is a fantastic spot for a sunset walk or a dip in the sea. As Kata is a public beach, local operators may offer sun loungers and umbrellas for a fee.

Sport and Entertainment

If you like to keep active, you can head to the well-equipped fitness centre to keep up with your routine. As the sun begins to set, the atmosphere around the resort becomes tranquil and inviting, making it a great time to enjoy a drink at the bar. For a bit of local culture, you can often find Thai cooking classes available to book, allowing you to take the flavours of Phuket back home with you.

Family Amenities

Families are warmly welcomed here, with plenty to keep the little ones busy. Children can make a splash in their own dedicated paddling pool or spend time at the supervised kids' club, which offers a variety of games and activities. The resort’s spacious layout also gives families plenty of room to explore the gardens together.
