Nice rooms. Difficult to get anywhere else.
The hotel itself is great - lovely rooms with nice pool and activities available. The staff are friendly and the yoga instructors are good. Unfortunately the shuttle service is a mess, making it very hard to explore the local area. Taxis refuse to go there as well because of the hill. The food and drinks are considerably overpriced. We had a transfer to the bus station arranged after our stay and they took us to the wrong station (insisting it was the right one despite our protestations) which causes significant delays in getting to our next destination. If you want to stay at your hotel all day and just use the pool this is the place for you. If you want to explore or even just go out to eat it is not easy to do from here.

Dear Megan: Thank you for your comments and concerns. For the shuttle, we start at 9 am and goes until 11 pm, stopping at over 8 points throughout the Kata and Karon areas. I will be going to back to my drivers to see what might have happened to create this confusion for you. As for the transfer to the bus station, I will be investigating this also. Our goal is to make sure that we deliver what our guest needs are met. For these concerns, I apologize for the less perfect experience.

**THIS IS THE BEST PLACE TO STAY IN PHUKET** I would 100% recommend CC's Hideaway to anyone! We stayed 4 days and 3 nights. The room and facilities were absolutely beautiful and extremely clean. I loved that CC's was tucked away in the hills - it felt more intimate and the views were incredible. It's also extremely close to the trailhead up to Big Bhudda. We hiked it twice during our stay! Even though it was farther away from the main attractions of Karon and Kata, they provide free shuttle service to a lot of different points in town. That was very convenient. The very best part about CC's was the incredibly kind and helpful staff. We had a lot of unique travel accommodations that needed to be made, and they handled them with ease. I will not think twice about staying at CC's again when we come back to Phuket.

definitely won't visit again, not worth it
Hotel staff are not friendly at all. My family did not feel welcome. Inconvenient location as it's at the top of the hill - have to wait for the shuttle bus to get around. Check in was very slow as they made a copy of everything. Definitely not a 4 star accommodation - more like a 3 star hotel. Not worth the price and if you are looking for a hotel that is accessible, do not choose this one. Also the lighting in the room is very very very dark. Not enough places to put my stuff after i unpack. Table is very small, there is no couch.

Dear Dahyun Yoo: Thank you for your comments for the one day you stayed with us at CC's Hideaway. All comments and concerns are valid to us. Your inputs allow us to reflect on how we can better position our hotel as well as our rooms. In reviewing your comments, one comment that stands out is our location. This surprises me because we are very clear on our location which is in the lush hills of Kata. Maybe you failed to read our description correctly. Needless to say, given that we are located away from the craziness of the crowds, we do provide a free shuttle that starts at 9 am and goes until 11 pm, leaving the hotel every hour. By providing this service, we feel strongly that we are accessible to the crowds and the beautiful beaches in the Kata/Karon area. You mention the check in process, the copying of your passports and on how long it took to check you in. We agree that the check-in process can seem long but the Thailand Immigration Department requires us to copy our guest's passports and report every guest that checks into our hotel. To protect our guest while staying with us, we will follow the requirements of the Thai Government. As for the rooms, you choose to book a family room which allows three adults to sleep comfortably. We are very clear on the size of our rooms and the amenities that are located in them. I have to assume that you failed to fully read and understand the descriptions of our rooms.

Only for those who are planning for a retreat in the boutique hotel, if you’re looking at shopping or exploring phuket, this location can be extremely inconvenient for you. Not near the beaches but free shuttle bus do drop at the beaches. Take note of the hourly shuttle service or risk having to wait for an extra hours if you miss the timings.

Thank you for your comment though I am confused with your comment about our location. Given that we are located on a hill and have been operating for the past 14 years, we are very clear and careful to share that we are not close to the beach. Given our location, we provide a free shuttle to three beautiful beaches - Kata Noi, Kata and Karon beaches. Though we are isolated, we do provide a wide range of activities to all of our guest - Big Buddha Trekking, 4 Water program, Old Town Tour, etc. If these programs are not to your liking, we also provide a Wellness program where we have two Yoga classes per day for a small fee, as well as an in-house massage therapist.

Small hotel set on a hillside behind Karon Town. Positives are the lovely friendly staff, the clean and comfortable rooms, and the extra touches like cookies in the room. Negatives are the distance and the need to rely on a shuttle van to take you down the hill to and from various points on the beaches and town, and the "compulsory" Christmas Eve dinner costing 1500 THB per person - a practice which apparently is quite common in the hotels in this area but ought to be discretionary. Overall we had a great experience at this property mainly due to the nice staff but the compulsory nature of the dinner left a bad taste and we would never come back over the holiday season.

Good hotel, excellent staff
CCs was a very enjoyable experience. I did the yoga retreat for 4 days and loved it. The hotel is good but what makes the experience is the yoga teachers, the staff, the food and the excursions. I have done a few other tours in Thailand but none as good as the CCs. The staff are so friendly and make you feel like you are at home while there. Very accomodating and would def return

Staff try hard, but Phuket is just not great
Unfortunately, this hotel, like all of Phuket, stinks of sewage and sulfur. The hotel is clean, but the bathrooms smell bad. Also, the air conditioner was not great and did not sufficiently cool the room, and the wifi was poor. The pool was nice, and the shuttle service was necessary, and good. Take the shuttle to Kata Noi, a beautiful beach and avoid the others which are overrun and not very nice.

Excellent hotel.
This is a nice hotel with a small swimming pool, nice restaurant, good selection for breakfast, comfotable rooms with contemporary bathrooms, and a great vuew of the ocean. It is half way up a mountain, so, you need to rely on the hotel’s 4 x 4 to get up there. The minibus fellow just stopped at the the bottom and said he could not get us up there. But, there was someone to pick us up promptly within a minute of the phone call. They also have an hourly shuttle service that does a loop of all the major beaches.

A wonderful little heaven place in Phuket. Location is amazing because you're away from the crown and busyness of the tourist locations but also a max of 10 min drive to either Kata or Karon beach. The Swimming pool is small but cute. The restaurant food was the best that I had in entire Phuket. I highly recommend it for yoga lovers, as it offers yoga classes at morning and evening time, the best sunset view over the sea while you do your evening class. I loved my entire stay there.

Hidden away
If you are a beach lover, then best look elsewhere: the 'Hideaway' is not within walking distance of the beach and you are completely dependent on local transport for getting to and from the sprawl of eateries, pubs and massage parlours that make the beach area so vibrant. Luckily, the hotel provides a reliable drop-off and pick-up service on the hour throughout the day. If you have lots of beach kit, it could be something of a pain during a long day out. We hired a moped from the hotel but, unless you're used to Thai driving habits, you're better off travelling on something less dangerous. The hotel staff were very helpful and pleasant. If you don't take the boat tours, there's always jungle trekking, cooking classes (?) and yoga (a hotel speciality). Beyond the beaches, Phuket has little to recommend it but the hotel pool is a nice place to chill with a good book. It's the staff who make the place: full marks to them all.
