We returned for our second stay here recently. The rooms and pools are excellent and the breakfast is great. When a family member tested positive for COVID and had to isolate in our room, the staff could not have been more helpful. They called public health to check the rules, informed our airline and allowed us to extend our stay at a discounted rate. They checked in with us whenever possible and allowed the rest of the family to move about the hotel so long as we had tested negative. We were allowed to collect breakfast from the buffet and take it back to the room. While the cleaners couldn’t enter the room, they dropped supplies whenever we needed them. All staff were great, but special mention goes to Yaya in reception and May in the restaurant, who were extra attentive.

Glam habitat is such a great hotel. They have apartment style rooms with so many amazing amenities. I had a I bedroom suite overlooking the swimming pool on the 2nd floor. On entry there was a good size kitchen with an island bench, cooking facilities, dishwasher and fridge which looked onto the good sized living area with comfy deep couch and a large smart tv which was great to watch. There was a plunge pool as well which was nice for a quick dip in the morning or evening.
Thebedroom was enormous with super comfy bedding, 2 great wardrobes, smart tv, safety box and large balcony which ran the length of the suite. The bathroom was well appointed with vanity, rain shower and smart toilet. Everything was high tech and well thought out in the whole suite.
The team at Glam Habitat are friendly and very accommodating.
Location is so close Kamala beach you can walk to it in under 5 mins. The beach itself is stunning with a really quaint feel, with beach restaurants and local stalls also.
I would highly recommend anyone to stay and I definitely will again. Thanks for an amazing stay. It was so suite!

First of all I'd like to recognize employees YaYa, Ae, Sol and Dee for their helpfulness, professionalism and friendship. This is a unique hotel that had a design that caught my attention. I was planning on staying at the Glam Habitat just as COVID 19 started so it was delayed a bit. I had found a nice deal on Agoda and as the person in charge of a group requiring 3 rooms, I thought the Glam Habitat would be perfect. The rooms are basically a well designed apartment. I felt very comfortable there. The refrigerator was the largest I've had in years. The bathroom was splendid but could use some brighter lights (according to the ladies applying makeup). The shower was splendid. Wall nozzles, rain shower head from above and the standard front retractable type. It was awesome! Everyone enjoyed the private pool that comes with the rooms and we spent many of times having a drink and soaking there. Only issue we had was with the water pressure. I stayed there 7 nights and had to call to the front desk to have the water turned on 9 times. I could tell the staff were embarrassed by the event and overheard them being yelled at by a guest. Not their fault and I understood that. The front desk staff were working their best at the issue their maintenance staff was having difficulty with. Basically 5 days with water pressure issues. Didn't stop me from enjoying my time there and will stay there again without hesitation. Nice lobby bar and onsite restaurant. I look forward to retuning. -Thanks, Scott K.

This hotel was ok and is location steps from kamala beach. The room itself was large and spacious with a comfy bed and high tech equipment - however lots of the equipment didn’t work and took a long time to fix!
They have digital doors to the room, every time it took us about 5 minutes just to open the door as it was faulty. The light in the bedroom was done by touch button - which was also broken so no light in the bedroom. They did fix this by our second day but we had to wait about 1 hour for it to be fixed before dinner.
The shower had these amazing wall jets which my boyfriend used on the first night. The seal on the door was broken so water went absolutely everywhere!! Small things but they end up being quite annoying.
The breakfast was very basic and not great. Although the room is equipped with a small kitchen so I would recommend getting bits from 7/11.
Walking distance to kamala beach but in all honesty this beach is not great. We rented a moped and went north the bang Tao - this location is much nicer. The town is nice and the beach is less commercial.
The staff here were not that friendly compared to other hotels we stayed at. They didn’t really greet us when we came in and out which was a bit uncomfortable. There is also a bit of a sewage smell outside the front of the hotel coming from the drains.

This place has beautiful rooms and incredibly nice and helpful staff. But it’s insanely loud. It’s right next to a major road and much farther from the beach than Google maps would lead you to believe. If I’m not hearing the motors from the road, it’s the neighbor’s crying kid or the 24 hour Korean news from across the hall. This is amazing if you’re deaf, but a horrible waste of money if you think you’re going here to relax.
The staff did try to do whatever they could and I couldn’t ask for more helpful people. The hotel is simply poorly situated and no attention was paid to sound.
I live in Washington, DC (not a suburb) and my home if infinitely more peaceful than this hotel... and that includes the occasional gunshots I hear (at home, none in Phuket).

We spent 12 days here in the 4 bedroom villa . We were due to stay elsewhere but due to a booking error found ourselves without accommodations one week before the arrival of my grandchildren, very fortunately we came upon this property by chance while driving around Kamala and were very glad we did . The property provides a good impression on approach and the check in and out as well as baggage service is very efficient and friendly . The villa is very spacious .and well equipped and additionally has two swimming pools . The property is very high tech replete with electronic gadget you could want . Beds are very comfortable and the the bathrooms large and very modern , housekeeping do an excellent job of maintaining hygiene .The property has very good connectivity and includes an Xbox for the children . Externally there is a large pool for use by all guests there are standard rooms on the property as well as villas .Access to the beach is a two minute walk away . There is a complimentary breakfast which is adequate . The staff in all departments are very pleasant especially on reception . In short we throughly enjoyed our stay here and would definitely return.

This hotel is nothing short of 5 star service. Fabulous breakfast included with great lunch and dinner options available in the restaurant.
Greeted by well trained and attentive staff and a welcome drink.
Accommodation is very high spec, well looked after and in a great location only 5 minutes from the beach where you have many more eateries.

Glam Habitat Kamala Beach Excellence is the only words to explain this luxury boutique hotel. We were greeted with the biggest Thai smiles from the airport transfer to the hotel lobby. We stayed in the 2 bedroom private pool suite. It was superb. the ensuite was huge with 3x wall jets , rainfall shower head and handheld wand. Large bathtub, Even had an automatic toilet.. it does come with a 2nd bathroom BUT the best thing about Glam Habitat are the staff from the Assistant manager Golf who was a fantastic lady, reception staff, cleaning staff and all the restaurant staff at Sapphire. Please try the food you will be very impressed. Great size serves with great flavours.
We are already planning a return trip. We stayed from September 12th to the 22nd. Even though this is meant to be their wet season we loved every day. I think the worst was 1hour of rain in the day. We swam everyday in our private pool which does have jets it was exceptional and private..
Thank you Golf and team for making our holiday so wonderful. See you next year. Regards, Glen Stewart

Overall it was a very lovely stay and the staff were super friendly!
They were a great help pre-booking too, responding swiftly to our enquiries about how to book the necessary required for the Thailand pass application.
Location was very convenient, just a short walk from the beach with lots of food options. The Big C Hypermarket is slightly further but still walkable.
The room was very clean and well furnished (although the automatic toilet can be quite unnerving at times and took a bit of getting used to. The dipping pool in the room is lovely for those who hate the sun otherwise there's a larger common pool as well.
Only downside was that we arrived late at night so the bar and restaurant were closed. But the night staff who checked us in tried to get us some soda/coke (we ended up ordering from grab). Just a tip for those arriving late at night to pack some snacks or get some drinks from the airport before arriving.
Definitely a big kudos to the staff for making our stay such a lovely and memorable one.

Great modern hotel! Liked everything! The staff is friendly and smiling. We arrived early in the morning, check-in was at 3 p.m., and were offered a rest room while the room was being prepared. We took a room with a private pool, a very chic room, a mini kitchen with a minimum set of dishes, a hairdryer, an iron and ironing board, blackout curtains. The bed is comfortable. Cleaning every day is standard as in all hotels. Breakfast is standard but delicious. In the evening we went for dinner a couple of times, everything was delicious too. We asked the child to boil regular pasta, they did it without any problems and brought it to the room. The location is convenient, 4 minutes to the sea. Kamala beach is excellent, lots of cafes along the beach. There is a shower in front of the hotel entrance to wash off the sand from your feet. Definitely, if I return to Thailand, we will stay at this hotel.
