We stayed at Kamala Dreams for 3 nights but wished that we could have stayed longer. After a little research before booking we reserved room 201 which costs slightly more than the standard rooms but is worth every penny as it is the biggest and has a wrap around balcony. This gives you the choice of looking over the pool or having an amazing sea view from the more secluded side of the balcony.
The studio style room is very spacious and equipped with king sized bed, TV, DVD, air con and a kitchenette with a full size fridge. The only thing that we didn't have was a kettle to be able to make our own tea & coffee. Not a big problem anyway. More importantly, everything was spotlessly clean and the daily maid service was very efficient. The bathroom was a little basic but served the purpose and was clean. Some previous reviews have mentioned a problem with the drainage but we didn't experience this although there was a very occasional waft of "eau de drain". Not a problem though.
On arrival we were met by smiling staff who offered us a cool drink on the house while they insisted on taking our luggage up to our room. The breakfast that was included in the room rate consisted of a choice of various juices, tea or coffee followed by a small selection of hot or cold food. Not exactly a full english but more than adequate. We ate in the restaurant on our first night and had a lovely meal while watching a torrential downpour. My Wife ordered a fish dish while I went for the red chicken curry. Both were substantial and delicious.
Kamala suited us fine as it is a pleasant, fairly quiet place but still has enough to see and do. We found Patong to be like a cross between Blackpool & Benidorm and far too busy for our liking. Each to their own I guess. Kamala Dreams is situated right next to the south end of the beach and also gives easy access to a number of bars and restaurants to choose from within easy walking distance. The beach is about a mile long and lined with beach-type bars which also serve cheap and delicious food. We enjoyed swimming in the sea which was nice and warm and had waves which were big enough to be interesting without being dangerous.
We would love to go back to Phuket and I wouldn't hesitate to return to room 201 at Kamala Dreams.
