We stayed at The Chava recently in March and would like to congratulate Larry Cunningham & The Chava team on creating the ultimate home away from home place to stay on Phuket. The spacious 2 br villa gives you a sense of space, peace & privacy that you do not tend to find in the hotel experience. Very convenient location,... More

We stayed at the Chava from 2-12 May, 2012. The apartments were amazing, lots of room for two adults, two children. The kitchen had a washing machine and dishwasher which was great (not all apartments have them). The only complaint was the air conditioning was noisy and you could hear the toilet upstairs flushing at night. The pool was fantastic... More

Hi Great to hear that you had a lovely stay at The Chava. It really is the great spot for families with the size of the apartments, proximity to the beach and a wide variety of restaurants within walking distance. I apologise if you were not made aware of the cost of the childrens club this is operated at the... More

The Chava was above and beyond our expectations and the highlight of our trip. We stayed in apartment B10 a two bedroom apartment, which was more than spacious and comfortable. The rooms were stylishly decorated, and despite the size offered a very comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. The bathroom off the main bedroom was beautifully designed and the bath was the... More

It is the six month anniversary of our wedding on Surin Beach in Phuket. Life was so intensely busy before the celebration that we allowed ourselves the comfort of just being after we returned back to the UK. Unintentionally, writing a review on The Chava slipped from our radar and so it now fitting timing that we finally share our... More

Hi Leana Thanks for your extensive review of the The Chava and surrounding Surin Beach area which should provide other potential guests with a great overview of what to expect. Although just to clarify the Chava is a resort. Which means we do provide all the same facilities and experience as a hotel in regards to daily housekeeping, room service,... More

I have never been to Thailand, which is surprising given I have lived in Australia for ten years. But when my wife's best friend booked her wedding there I jumped at the chance. The Chava was the recommended hotel so we booked a two bedroom apartment with a plunge pool. The room was beautiful and the service was great. Our... More

I had a wonderful stay with my partner at The Chava. The hotel is stunning and the food and facilities outstanding. Located on a beautiful quiet beach and close to but not in the middle of the nightlife it is the perfect location for anyone. The staff were incredibly helpful! Already planning my next stay there!

Myself, my wife, my mate and his wife stayed at the Chava in August/september 2011. One of the best places to stay. Friendly staff, 2br apartment just sensational, Larry Cunningham was a laugh a minute when talking to him, friendly and willing to help you any time you ask him. Would love to stay there again some day.

From the moment we arrived at the resort, we were pleasantly surprised with what we saw. Check-in was very professional, quick and friendly. We were checked into a two bedroom apartment, which was absolutely stunning. We've stayed at many other resorts around Asia in the last two years, and this was by far the best rooms we've got. The rooms... More
