I just returned from 1 week's stay at the NH Boat Lagoon Hotel in Phuket with my 10 year old son, joined part way through by my 39 year-old son :-)
We all felt that the hotel was ideal for a relaxing, chill-out break. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable, the pool, fitness centre and other facilities were great and the restaurant and bar served pretty tasty and reasonably priced food and drink. The service throughout was great, as per usual in Thailand, and the buffet breakfast was also quite decent and varied.
There was a slight mix-up with the rooms upon arrival, which was not the fault of the hotel, but Frank, the Front Desk Manager, sorted it out amicably and professionally and actually put us in what probably turned out to be a better room than we would otherwise have been in. The hotel rooms are split into 2 sections, some in the main body of the hotel and some near the marina, about 5-10 minutes walk away, with a shuttle-bus services between the two, on demand. Frank suggested we would probably be happier in the main part of the hotel, near the pool and other facilities and he was right, as it was great to be able to come out from the room directly to the pool and restaurant, without having to make the journey from the marina, especially in the heat.
There 's quite a large supermarket just a few minutes walk away from the hotel where you can get just about everything you might need and there's also a little launderette and cafe nearby the supermarket, as well as an Ice Rink, if that takes your fancy ! Down by the marina there are several restaurants that all looked pretty nice. We tried the Sushi one and it was amazing and very good value as sushi goes. We also went to the Egyptian restaurant near the hotel and that was delicious too and lovely service. The hotel is also very close the the Royal Phuket Marina, from where you can catch many boat rides to the islands, which makes a great day out ! We also went to the Andamanda Waterpark and it was simply amazing and really good value for a day out with (or without) the kids! The water rides were fantastic, there was a great wave pool (with swim-up bar) that came close to being as good as Disneyworld and there were sun-loungers where you could relax for free, food and drink again at afforadable prices, with unlimited iced water refills for about 3 euros. (You're not allowed to take your own food and drink).
All in all I would highly recommend this resort hotel and plan to return there again soon with my wife !
