Blue Ocean Resort & Spa

Hotel not too badly located but there is something off about it. There are lots of mosquitos and one night there was no hot water. The staff was ok friendly but couldnt speak much english. It does not look like their photos so be prepared! Breakfast was good.

Disappointing... Nice enough on the surface, but rather weak service, loud groups of guests, perhaps the time of year I visited, but I didn't care for it,.

I picked this hotel to stay for 2 nights after I finished a liveaboard scuba diving trip. The rooms were large and very modern and updated with some latest technology. All the lights could be controlled by a panel right next to the bed so you don't have to get up to turn them off. Balcony in each room to dry off swimsuits. The hotel is off the main […] area so it's nice and quiet. There's convenience stores and restaurants nearby. It's a very short walk (just a couple blocks) to get to Patong Beach. The hotel had very friendly staff who spoke English. When I was leaving the hotel and it was starting to rain - the car attendant at the hotel gave me an umbrella to use while I was away - so I didn't have to go all the way up back to my room! Friendly staff - modern rooms - great amenities. [Pool + free breakfast + spa] Read more

The hotel didn't look like much from the street, but as soon as you walk up the stairs you realize it is a very nice hotel. The pool area is VERY nice, and very pleasing to the eye as well. The staff wasn't too bad, all questions I had seemed to get referred to the same woman, which was fine, but I think if she wasn't there they may have been clueless. My […] only issue was that the WiFi service doesn't work in the rooms. I was on the 5th floor, and couldn't even log into to it on my laptop, or phone. I called the front desk however, and they brought me a LAN cable to connect to the wall. So it really wasn't an issue but is something I would have liked to know to expect in advance. Besides that, it was an excellent stay, and one of the coolest hotel rooms I have been in. Read more

My stay was comfortable and relaxing. The area was quiet but, active at the same time. The staff was very professional and helpful. I would recommend this hotel to a friend.

Good hotel - stayed there three times, during my trips around Southeast Asia. Besides a few leaking spots on the 7th floor, the hotel is well kept, affordable and convenient. I will defintely stay there again!

Great hotel - large rooms, convenient to everything/place. There is however a shack behind the hotel. Not a pleasant view from the hotel balcony. This may also be a temporary site for construction.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Just off the beaten path. 5 minutes walk to the beach and 3 minutes walk to walking street. Don't bother taking a taxi anywhere. The pool access rooms are perfect. Breakfast in the morning is almost poolside as well. The hotel staff will do anything to help you. Don't hesitate to ask. My only complaint is that they advertise "Sleep Number" beds, but […] sleep number beds are adjustable for firmness and softness. These may very well be air beds, but they are not adjustable at all, and they are very very firm. Read more

Fantastic Hotel, and just far enough away from the hectic beach front lane and Bang La Road that you can get a good nights rest if your not a nightcrawler. 5 minutes walk to the beach, 10 to Bang La Rd.

Our first room smelled like mildew as soon as we entered. We asked for a change of room but there was none available except for a downgraded room, which was a little better. Overall, the hotel was average. Would not consider it 4 starts.

Beatiful hotel, gorgeous room. Well located and very good price.

Genuine Expedia guest review

This hotel is very nice overall. However, if you want a view of more than just the mountains then this is not the hotel you should stay at. The view here, although all rooms seem to face the pool, is of the mountains, a drainage creek that at low tide can have an unpleasant odor, and a view of a Burmese shanty town. Not bad, just culturally enlightning. The […] breakfast buffet has quite a variety of American and Asian style foods that varies every other day with plenty of fruit and pastries to enjoy and was quite good. The bar staff however could use some training. We waited 15 - 20 minutes every time we ordered a drink whether they were busy or not. That being said, the wait staff was very friendly and accommodating. The rooms are very nice, the bed one of the most comfortable I've every slept on if you like firm beds. I recommend asking for a room that is not in the corner however. They have little to no view of the pool. The location is good for those not wanting to be right in the thick of all the night life, Bangla Road is about 1km away, but just a short walk to the beach. The spa was amazing, more expensive than getting a massage downtown, but a true spa experience. Read more

It was first time for me and my beautiful wife in Phuket. Lovely place, many many things to do and hotel photos were promissing. Upon arrival we realized that it's a bit at the end of the city and still some things are under construction. Overall we had a very good time and price/value for the Blue Ocean is reasonable. Rooms are nice. Pool is a bit […] weird but ok. Read more

Stayed for 2 nights. Not a bad place, but they're still setting up the property as new construction. I upgraded to a pool-access room for a few bux more on checkin, well well worth it! However, the on-site restaurant sucks. Overall it was decent.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Seems to be an element of crime and scams that lingers directly around the street near the hotel. We were scammed once and missed a near scam as well. I will not return to this hotel.

I work for an airline and I loved this hotel it was only rated 3 starts but to me it was atleast at 4 or 4.5. It had a great buffet style breakfast and the resturant was great we had an amazing dinner at the hotel resturant 2 nights in a row it was so good.The hotel staff was extremely help and polite always opening the door for you.

The hotel is brand new. The rooms are spotless. Excellent bathrooms. The showers are a treat. Opt for pool view rooms. The service at the hotel is also very good. We were very happy with our stay. Recommended for both singles and families. It is a 15 min walk to Bangla street.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Staff members were friendly and hotel facility was great. The point that I could not have hot shower a few times was the only negative aspect. (But shower facility was great.) The hotel massages were expensive but I think they were excellent in comparison with massages available on the street.

Staff are very friendly and the room was awesome. It is however a long walk from Bangla, but that is about all I can fault. Great place.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Very good quality hotel accomodation in a good location.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel is far from the main attractions such as Bangla road and the beach. Transportation is difficult to get in the area because none of the tuk tuk drivers will bargain down the price and cabs don't care about bargaining either. They know your stuck without them. The hotel was falling apart. The walls in the hallways had big holes that had been […] bolted with ply wood. The room smelled of mould and well goop! Room didn't get cleaned till I had to phone reception at 4pm the next day. The hotel deal said free minibar but then they charge you for stuff because they failed to clearly identify that it's not free only water and chips were free haha! Everything else is thrown in the mix so u consume it and then they bring out this secret bill that says well only a couple items were free. I wouldn't recommend this hotel based on location and cleanliness! Read more

Hotel room ok was clean. All the hotel views where of a shanty town and raw sewage. Staff not particular pleasant especially at check out. would not stay there again

The staff is the best, as well as the breakfast; very close to the beach!

Nothing overly impressive. Problems with the water system mean I had no temperature control. Wifi only took about 1 hour to send an email!

Pool access room was AMAZING! Staff at reception and throughout the hotel were beyond helpful and friendly. The variety at breakfast was average but delicious. Hotel overall was a pleasure, very quiet and relaxing. Wouldn't stay anywhere else in Patong! 100% satisfied!

I would not recommend anyone to stay on this hotel considering ill mannered staff . Arrogant front desk and not puri the mark services overall.

Rooms were very good and clean but the balcony view was not so good. There is a Open Sewerage Lines on back side of the hotel.but the room on pool side were very awesome.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Booked 4 nights. Upon arrival staff were dis-organised and not very welcoming, our room had a musty odour which I could live with, nice flat screen TV. Upon the 2nd night of our stay we came home late and the night staff asked my wife (who is thai) if I was 'her customer' in thai or if we had checked in together. My wife was very upset by this and she […] spent the next 30 minutes in tears which obviously ruined the evening if not the entire stay. On the 3rd night there was no hot water and after calling reception I was told it would be fixed within 30 minutes. In fact we had no hot water for the remainder of our stay and further complaints fell on deaf ears. Not nice having to take cold showers. Upon checking out I kicked up a fuss and the reception staff phoned the manager at home and I was able to speak to him. He was very apologetic and was not informed that the hotel had not had any hot water for the past 3 days! He agreed that the night staff that questioned my wife had done so in an unacceptable manner and offered me a free spa or food, in the end we agreed that they would not charge me for the 900 baht laundry charges. 3 star hotel at best, staff need more customer orientated training.

For the price offered, it was of reasonable standard. The small but very nice gesture was free use of minibar which came with some soft drinks and nuts and chocolate. Comfortable and fairly good location, convenient to walk to most destinations in Patong.

Great value for money, pool access rooms are great. I read complaints about the smell from the channel next door but it didn't worry us at all, there were far worse smells in the streets. The hotel staff were great, several of our group got sick and we went to reception who organised a doctor to the hotel within 20 minutes. Close enough to walk to everything […] or a tuk tuk out front to take you anywhere in Patong for 22 Baht (less than $6). Buffet breakfast was good. I will be staying there next time I'm in Patong.

Hotel in good condition, rooms clean and spacious, however view was awful, stayed in a deluxe room right in a corner looking at a wall. Staff were not courteous at all and had no interest in saying hello or even looking at you as you came and went from the hotel. Daily housekeeping was fantastic and valuebles always kept safe.

Genuine Expedia guest review

abit off the beaten track location wise. staff could do with a coke and a smile from time to time. 'Resort' is built next to what appears to be polluted creek next to a tin shed slum. Buffet is mediocre at best. Late check outs are frowned upon. Room had a puddle of water in the middle of it. Wouldnt stay here again. was purely chosen for price per […] night. Wifi signal was weak. actually didnt work at all. Read more

When I'm in a hotel, two things are most important to me, one is how clean the place is and 2 is the customer service. The room itself was very clean and tidied, but if they swept the floor as well that would be better. Some staff were more friendlier and helpful than others, but overall it was fine. Would have been nice to have Wifi in the rooms instead […] of needing to come down to the lobby to use it. The gym/fitness station advertised is a little dissapointing as it was just placed randomly on a floor where people can see you working out. The free breakfast was amazing. The guards remembered my face and becamr protective of me when i went out at night, this made me feel at home. The hotel was a short walk to the beach and taxis so it was very convenient. This place is best for couples, as a solo traveller it was hard to meet new people - but that depends on what you are after. Read more

Generally this hotel is very good with clean rooms that are a generous size and functional. Free internet is a big plus. The breakfast included in the room rate is very good.

This hotel is great value for money if you can get a good deal. There are 2 showers in the bathroom which is perfect for a couple after a day at the beach. The pool area is ok for a quick dip but not to spend the day at relaxing as the river is behind the hotel and smells a bit. 5 minute walk to the beach, 15 minute walk to Jungceylon Shopping Centre […] and Bangla road.

Reception staff were rude and unhelpfull. Arrived at 4pm and the room was still being cleaned. Specially requested nice view and my room faced out to the back of white block buildings. I could here everything the people in the next room were saying. Apart from that good location.

Hotel was nice for what was paid. Lovely polite staff. Was a bit of a walk from Bangla Rd but not too far from the beach. Good spot as it is a bit away from the crazyness of the nightlife but good for everything else.

We stayed here in March 2012 for 2 nights (1 on our way to Phi Phi island, one on our way back). It was a decent hotel right in the main district of Patong Beach. It wasn't the most amazing hotel, but for the price and a one night stop over it was convenient. The pool and bar were great and the rooms were clean, tidy and relatively comfortable. The […] decor was a bit 'tacky' to our taste, but it suits the area I suppose. I would recommend this place, however we did not look around too much to see if there is anything better. Read more
