Confirmed on Booking.com (9.1 from 650 reviews) and Agoda (9.0 from 1,073 reviews), checked 17 September 2026. Booking.com shows an official three-star rating. Booking.com lists it as Kata Tranquil Villa - SHA Plus and labels its area Karon Beach. Distances measured to OpenStreetMap points for Kata and Karon beaches. Straight-line distances are from its Booking.com coordinates. Sub-scores and facilities read from the Booking.com property page. We have not stayed here.
9.1 on Booking.com from 650 reviews, 9.0 on Agoda from 1,073.
Staff score 9.6, cleanliness 9.5, comfort 9.4, wifi 9.3. Booking.com lists a pool, a garden and an airport shuttle, and rates the breakfast as exceptional.
Location is the trade-off at 8.4, the second lowest among our Kata and Karon hotels. It is on Patak Road, roughly 1.4km from the Kata beach information point and 1.7km from Karon beach in straight lines, so it is between the two rather than on either.
It is around ฿2,490 a night for 15 to 18 November 2026 (there was no price for 12 to 15 January 2027).
