 The Coral Island Resort is located in the south east of Phuket Island. Guests can enjoy snorkelling from the white sandy beach right in front of the resort. The island can be accessed the whole year round and may be reached in only 15 minutes from Chalong Bay. Karon Beach is a 30-minute drive, while the centre of Phuket is only a 45-minute drive away and it is 40 km to Phuket Airport.
Renovated in 2007, this club resort comprises a total of 64 rooms designed in a bungalow style and divided into 3 room categories: beachfront deluxe, deluxe and standard rooms. The beachfront deluxe bungalows are just opposite the beach while the deluxe bungalows are tucked away just behind. The standard rooms face the swimming pool and are set up on the hillside. Facilities on offer to guests include a lobby area, a hotel safe, a currency exchange facility, a cafe, a hairdressing salon, a bar, a TV lounge, a restaurant, conference facilities and WLAN Internet access (charges apply). Guests may also take advantage of the room and laundry services and the younger guest will enjoy the kids' club (for an additional fee).
The rooms are designed in a bungalow style in order to blend in with the island's natural surroundings. Guests can choose either to enjoy the warmth of the sun while sunbathing or to refresh themselves in the cool air-conditioned atmosphere of the rooms, gently swept by a sea breeze. All rooms come with a private bathroom with a shower, as well as a hairdryer, a minibar, tea and coffee making facilities and a king-size bed. Furthermore, individually adjustable air conditioning, a safe and either a balcony or a terrace are provided in all accommodation as standard. A couple of beach chair covers are provided in each room for guests to use at the beach.
Guests can enjoy snorkelling, scuba diving, Thai massage, beach volleyball (free), beach soccer (free), bird watching (free), batik painting, canoeing, fishing and trips to watch the sunset. The hotel features an open air pool (charges apply) with a children's section. Guests may also relax in the spa pool, with a massage or try their hand at banana boating and billiards (charges apply).
This hotel serves international and Thai cuisine. Breakfast is normally served a la carte and sometimes in buffet style. Lunch and dinner are available a la carte or from a buffet, depending on the number of guests. A children's menu is also available.
It is recommended that guests contact the resort for a boat transfer, as there is no public ferry to transport them to the island and other boat operators only charter entire boats. Therefore for reasons of safety and cost, guests should contact the resort for their speedboat from Chalong Bay.
In order to prevent the loss of keys, these should be left at reception whenever guests leave the hotel during their stay.
