I've stayed at the JW Phuket a total of three times over the past three years, and though I still think it is phenomenal, it has noticeably slipped over that time. First the positives. The resort is well-maintained. The rooms are spacious. The facilities are robust for a resort, i.e. lots of activities, private beach, two pools (one for everyone... more

this property is amazing it is near the airport and away from happening patong beach, but excellent getaway with the family the resort is very well planned it has 4 pools and is very kids friendly, the rooms are excellent clean and very spacious more

the hotel is very very huge. with a buggie to take you to your room, the restaurants and the reception. a room next to the beach is preferable. the perl museum is at a short distance by cab from the hotel and so are other attractions. more

Lovely place for kids. Large pools, one with a water slide. Lime ice at lunchtime by the kids pool. Playroom was great for 3 years and up. Not recommended for less than 3 years old. Nice sized gym. Played tennis at 8am and it was HOT. Very well appointed room with a box window for relaxing with a book. The... more

The Hotel is located on a large complex north of the airport, approx. 15 minutes away, and will take a good day (and a map) to orientate yourself around the grounds.

This is a fantastic getaway - secluded with a private beach. Lots of activities with excellent facilities for children. Lovely restaurants ... although, the outdoor ones can be a menace to eat with flies buzzing all over the food. Personally, I don't believe most of south east asia is conducive to outdoor dining round-the-year given the weather ... but for... more

The marriot as everyone says is beautiful, top notch , clean well laid out ect. You cant fault it. It was quiet when we first arrived but became really packed after a few days (but it was easter + Thai new year. The kids had a great time once it got busy as lots of people to make friends with.... more

Booked through Marriott's website. Took the Marriott rewards card which gives 10% off price of the room and restaurants bills. We were put in a standard room which was very nice and spatious, featuring a king size bed, a very large bathroom with bath tub and shower, a small balcony. Compared to other 5 star hotels I found them a... more
