Of course I typed my incomplete question while I'm half awake at 1am.
I am looking into doing a cash + points redemption, which doesn't state anything about breakfast. I am just a SPG gold; therefore, I wouldn't be entitled to the complimentary breakfast people talk about through status or rate.
I've read several reports of people complaining about the difficult reaching Patong because the hotel monopolizes taxis in/out the resort. What are your thoughts?

Just to confirm, breakfast is not included for adults in this rate? My partner and I are considering Phuket and would book this for the spa benefits if breakfast was included. We have no kids. Let me know, otherwise we can book the advance rate, which includes breakfast.
Thanks!

Thailand is Russia's beach get away, there are direct flight to Russia into Phuket. The only place I have been able to escape Russian tourist in Thailand is in Hua Hin.
X-mas is about double the price compared to other times of year.

Thanks for your feedback!
Is it worth staying there during xmas (peak season)? It is about $300/night during that time. I need to book 4 rooms for 3 nights.
I don't mind the crowd..but some of the reviews mentioned the loud Russians + music, I think my parents would go crazy!

I'd give this hotel a pass during extreme high season, definitely at $300/nt x 4. There are quieter SPG hotels in the vicinity. I'd also +1 Hua Hin, which is much more laid back and not sleazy like Patong Beach.

I'm trying to stay SPG, and there are only 3 choices. This one, a westin which is an hour away, and Naka, which is $500+/ night
. Guess sometimes you can't force SPG...
