A2 RESORT - PHUKET, THAILAND

Traveling backpacker at Phuket, Thailand for 4 days and 3 nights, my companion and I had settled to book accommodation in a 3 star hotel that is cheaper yet had great considerations with our safety. Thus, we had checked on A2 Resort – Inspired Modern Contemporary Living In “Pool Access” style. A2 Resort is conveniently located on Phuket Town area on by pass road. According to their website (www.a2resortphuket.com) it offers 52 tastefully decorated “Pool Access” rooms, suites and cottages, all of which are equipped with modern amenities to provide guests with the maximum comforts. Since advertisement sometimes can be deceiving, we further read reviews on A2 and majority had poured out compliments and positive feedbacks, which made us, feel at ease booking a Deluxe Pool Access room.

We arrived at Phuket International Airport quarter past 9 and upon arrival assistance to arrange transportation was on cue. A2 Resort was easily recognized by our Thai transportation fixer and issued trip ticket with agreed 650 Baht one way (airport to A2 Resort, 100 Baht lower for what I had read) fee. Arriving late at A2 Resort, we encountered slight problem checking-in as proper endorsement of arrival and reservation was not forwarded. Our reserved Deluxe Pool Access Room was cancelled off to accommodate great volume of guests. Despite no confirmation, the receptionist was apologetic and had upgraded our room to Deluxe Pool Access Suite “free of extra charges”. In addition, the receptionist had become a big help in confirming our scheduled island tour for the following morning and guided us for valued dinner meal.

As our vacation trip ended, we had no regrets spending USD 257.00 for our 4 days and 3 nights stay at A2 Resort as we enjoyed our free continental buffet breakfast, 90 meters U shape outdoor swimming pool, computers with internet access and guest services that includes: 24 – hour security, free wireless internet access, smoke detectors, tour/excursion booking, laundry and dry cleaning, free parking, limousine taxi, airport transfer ,free shuttle bus to Phuket Shopping Malls (Central Department Store, Big C, Tesco Lotus) and accessibility to Bangkok Phuket Hospital, Cabaret Shows, The Siam Niramitre and 30 minutes from Phuket International Airport.
