Secluded and small private-villa resort not far from Patong Beach
With only 16 private villas, the Bell Pool Villa Resort is a boutique luxury hotel a bit inland from Kamala Beach, and a short ride away from the shopping and nightlife of Patong Beach. The villas come with 1, 2, 3, or 4 bedrooms, and each with a large private pool, so they are ideal for families or groups of couples. The 1-bedroom villas are known as Honeymoon Villas, with an extra touch of romance to go along with the 5-star amenities.
The resort offers free shuttle service to nearby beaches, and can arrange transportation between the scheduled runs at a small cost. There are a few other businesses within a short walk so guests do have more options, but this is designed as a self-contained holiday resort with everything you need. In spite of its peaceful setting, it’s less than 10 minutes by car from Patong Beach and all of the shopping and nightlife, so it’s ideal for those who like quiet for sleeping and activity whenever they are in the mood.

What the reviews say
Reviews for the Bell Pool Villa Resort are generally very good or excellent, with almost everyone agreeing that the private pool villas are large, modern, and spotless. Most guests say the service is also exceptional, though the English ability of a few members of staff could improve a bit. It seems guests are well aware that this is a secluded resort that is away from the beach, and with that in mind they seem to love it and promise to return.
The negatives tend to be quite minor in the grand scheme of things. Someone mentioned that the water in the private pools is about 1.5 meters in the whole thing, so it’s not ideal for younger children. Also, each bedroom has its entrance on the outside, so keeping track if kids playing in a common area can be challenging. Overall this resort gets almost exclusively 5-star reviews with a few 4-stars thrown in, so if the features sound good to you then you can book with confidence.
