The hype
The facilities for kids are world-class, but the rooms are showing their age and the noise is constant.
Sunwing Kamala Beach
$100-200/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You are a parent who wants to sip a cocktail while your children are professionally exhausted by mascots.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Happy Baby Studios come with strollers, high chairs, and bumbos included
- Direct access to Kamala Beach (no road to cross)
- 8 pools including waterslides mean kids never get bored
Kurzfassung: A chaotic, joyful, noise-filled factory of family fun that is absolute hell for childless couples.
Bewertet von @tatiana_stefana: I was surprised by how huge this room felt! The kitchenette with a big fridge is a game-changer for snacks. Even though I had a garden view, it was super peaceful. The pools were empty in the morning—felt like I had the whole place to myself.
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check
You will hear screaming children in the corridors, at the pool, and possibly through the walls.
- You are traveling with a toddler and dread packing all the gear
- You want your kids to eat free (with paying adults) at the resort
- You prioritize pool variety over silence
Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung
7.5
- Housekeeping: Daily and generally good, but often rushed due to the sheer volume of guests.
- Bathroom hygiene: Functional but dated. Grout often shows age; water pressure is good.
- Maintenance: High wear and tear. Expect scuffed walls and occasional broken tiles.
- Linens & towels: Clean but well-worn. Pool towels can be a bit threadbare.
- Odors & scents: Lobby is fresh; ground floor rooms often battle a 'tropical musty' scent.

FAQ & Geheimtipps
Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is it really that noisy?
Yes. It is a family resort with hundreds of children. Silence is not on the menu.
Can I walk to restaurants?
Yes, you are right on Kamala Beach with dozens of restaurants and massage spots within a 5-minute walk.
Is the beach safe for swimming?
Generally yes, Kamala is calmer than Patong, but always obey red flags during monsoon season (May-Oct).
Do the rooms smell?
Some ground floor rooms have a lingering musty/damp smell due to the tropical humidity.
Is the kids' club free?
Entry is free, but specific activities like 'Pizza Making' or 'T-shirt Painting' have a fee.
How is the WiFi?
Free and generally decent in the lobby and rooms, but can struggle during peak evening streaming hours.
Insider-Tipps
- ✨
The on-site clinic is great for minor scrapes but check your travel insurance coverage first.
- ✨
You can use the 'Sunprime' gym next door if you want a workout without toddlers watching.
- ✨
Buy your beer and snacks at the 7-Eleven or SuperCheap down the street, not the hotel mini-market.
5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren
💡The 'Back View' rooms are a legitimate trap—you might stare at a concrete wall.
💡The 5,000 THB deposit is a shock to many; bring cash if you don't want a card hold.
💡The 'Happy Baby' strollers are basic umbrella strollers—don't expect off-road capability.
💡Housekeeping sometimes misses the sand buildup in the corners of the room.
💡The water slides close strictly at 6 PM, leading to a mass exodus of grumpy kids.
