Incredible rooms. Beautiful design throughout. My room was enormous! Laughably big! Very helpful friendly staff. The food was amazing in the breakfast buffet. Great facilities for kids (pool and kids club). The whole place smells amazing. Would come back, without a doubt. Local area has quite a lot there. Close to airport. Poolside service very friendly and easy.

A few fittings in the room needed replacing (my shower in the room had bits that were hanging off). Area has a few seedy bars we avoided, but there's LOTS of choice for restaurants etc on the beach, supermarkets close by. Avoid buying anything extra in hotel until you've popped out through the garden exit and been to some of the shops and restaurants on the beach.

Restaurants where great, grounds and pools fantastic. Being right on the beach with many small shops and restaurants run by locals outside of the resort gave lots of choice. The resort is next to a national park with plenty of walking tracks which is nice for active guests.

Gym was adequate but could have had more equipment for a large resort. Resort was about 45 mins drive to old town Phuket which is worth a day trip and night out which we did once, but it may be an issue if you wanted to spend a lot of time shopping and going out at night. We spent 5 days mostly at the resort and beach which was exactly what we wanted.

Everything you can think of they provided. They will always exceeded your expectations. There’s a morning Buffet that changes every day and it has everything from Asian, North and South American dishes. There are four different restaurants on site. There’s a daycare that is included in the cost for your children. Every SINGLE day every 2hrs there’s something for them to do and it’s FREE . I’ve attended 4 throughout my 2week stay. We created a candle, bracelets for our children, tote bags, pom-poms and more, which provided several souvenirs for Family at no cost to me just time. There is a tennis court, gym, kids pool 3 adult pools, 2 infinity pools, 1 pool swim bar. There’s transport throughout the entire compound, to and from every event you can think of as well as to and from the airport and to your front door . When leaving out the compound, the sand 2 the beach is less than 600 feet away. The ocean is less than 2000 feet. There’s street food, cabanas and convenience stores. Everything you can ask for around the compound. The Slate offers, bikes and scooters. They will book events for you and a way to get there. There’s a store that sells everything you have in your bedroom from the actual bed, sheets, towels, soaps and fragrances, too the appliances holding up the sink. I am not exaggerating whatsoever. I’ve made a TikTok Instagram and Facebook post about how exceptional the slate hotel is. I will forever stay on this compound, regardless of where I am visiting throughout Thailand. I never travel with my children because they are young adults. However, this compound makes you want to bring all ages of children and family because there’s something for everyone to do in plenty of space to do it. They have currency exchanges on site as well as prayer sections for those who are religious. There an app to contact every aspect of the compound. You never have to speak to actual person.

That I didn’t know everything I knew now In order to Maximize my stay. ….

Absolutely amazing stay, this is a resort has a theme and design in every detail. This gives Slate an unique characteristic comparing to other places. The service is absolutely great, the staff assists me to resolve the credit card confusion and all other questions with tremendous patience. The room is actually bigger than I thought with 2 balconies and a huge bathtub which is my favourite. The bed is comfortable with a perfect balance, not too hard, not too soft, just on point. There are 3 pools, one for adults and children and 2 for adults only, it's family friendly and everyone can have some fun. The bar and dinners are amazing, you must try it out. The resort is right next to the Naiyang beach, even you can't see the sea directly, it's just a 30s walk from the door connecting the beach, this gives you a certain pravicy where you can enjoy both the busy public beach and your quiet pool time anytime. At last the New year party was so romantic, seating under a huge tree while watching the live performance until the countdown, a lifetime memory.

Nothing really, if I have to find one, that maybe the transportation. Would be perfect if there is free pickup and send-off to the airport.

The location near beach and airport and facilities

Not enough light in bedrooms At night time. Hard to read and see items.

We stayed at the resort over the Songkran period to avoid the noise of the city. Breakfast was nice and pleasant, we absolutely loved one of the Adults' pool. Our Suite was lovely as well, uniquely and tastefully designed, full of well thought small details everywhere, and certainly not one of those usual resorts. We absolutely loved the entire ambience of the resort, especially the lobby area with a very colorful and bright lobby shop. Great access to the public beach and we loved our daily morning walks and short trips.

Since that was a Songkran evening, all other restaurants were closed and we had to have the themed Thai dinner buffet. It was okay, but as much as we like Thai food, it felt like all time favorite items were not presented - no Tom Yam, no Pad Thai, no Tom Sam, etc. We felt disappointed, and that was same to many other foreign (non-Thai) guests who were the majority. Also the AC in the bathroom did not function until we called engineering to fix it, which took couple of hours.

I had an incredible stay at The Slate Hotel in Phuket! From the moment I arrived, the attention to detail and exceptional service stood out. The design of the hotel is stunning—luxurious, modern, and with a unique industrial-chic vibe that sets it apart. The rooms were spacious, beautifully decorated, and immaculately clean, with every amenity thoughtfully provided. The pools were breathtaking, offering a perfect spot to relax, and the lush tropical surroundings added to the serene ambiance. The dining options were phenomenal, with a variety of delicious cuisines and impeccable service at each restaurant. The breakfast spread was especially impressive! The staff went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect—they were warm, friendly, and always available to assist. The location was also ideal, close to the beach yet peaceful and secluded. The Slate is truly a gem in Phuket, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. I’ll definitely be returning! Feel free to tweak it based on your specific experience!

There are lots of great touches based around the tin mine theme. The grounds are vast and there is something different round each corner.

This is not a kid friendly hotel. All sinks are too high, kid steps are never available, no lifeguard, nothing for kids to play on at the family pool and the family rooms are full of sharp corners and doors that are too heave for them to open. It’s designed for adults who annoyingly bring children. It also feels like there are lots of snagging that need fixing. Eg. Our phone rang several times through the night. Only fixed by unplugging…

We stayed here when it was originally called the "Indigo Pearl", for our Honeymoon. We returned for our 10 yr Anniversary to "The Slate'. Breakfast has a large variety of options. Dinner menu at Tin Mine appeared to be limited and this could be due to a number of alternative eating venues out side of the resort, all within walking distance. There are a number of other restaurants within the resort. We had a private Pool villa and it was amazing, ideal for a couple that want to get away, have a little isolation but have amenities close by. The room size is quiet large and the bed was very comfortable. The room attendant (Bee) was fantastic and was always helpful to all our requests. Adults pool with bar was great, good for a quick dip and then swim up to the bar for a cold beer. A short walk out the resort back gate (open 24hrs with Guard) and you are at Nai-Yang Beach and a cluster of building making up a village. Here there are a number of eating options for breakfast, lunch and dinner, a few drinking locations, shopping options and grocery stores. Great place to stay if you want to avoid the hustle and bustle of Patong. Our first language is English and we were always able to find Staff who spoke English to assistance us with our enquiry.

We are struggling to find anything of significance as to what we didn't like. Can only re-state the Tin Mines limited dinner menu / options. Also if an absorbent type material (mat) be placed on the floor under the air-conditioning unit as the polished timber floor becomes very slippery when wet.

This hotel is incredible! We stayed here for a friends wedding, we wouldn't normally splash out like this but it was so worth it! The staff are awesome, there is a hotel app where you can book room services, activities, excursions! So many free activities like paddle boarding, kayaking, biking riding, archery etc.. the Gym was lovely and the general hotel facilities were wonderful. The breakfast was 10 of 10! Possibly the best hotel breakfast I have every had! We also got a free upgrade which was a lovely bonus. The three pools we could not fault and they have 2 separate pools for 'adults only' if you want some quiet time. The Cocoon/ nest spa area was so relaxing and peaceful.

Nothing, incredible hotel, 100% would recommend
