Rooms with the ultimate view
Review Submitted: January 25, 2008

Like a chic boutique hotel, the serviced air-conditioned apartment was tastefully furnished and had all the very latest mod cons (it was useful having wi-fi internet access), so I must say that we were very comfortable and well looked after during our stay.
Adjacent to the beach, the enormous infinity pool provided a really good swim. But what really set this holiday accommodation apart from other places I’ve stayed was the truly breathtaking panoramic view across the bay. The floor-to-ceiling, full-width picture windows and patio doors which lead onto the balconies from all main rooms make the most of C6's prime position, especially in the evenings when the sun sets behind the Giant Buddha on the coastline across the water. What an amazing sight!
The tranquil location suited our party of four perfectly, providing an ideal base for exploring the island by car. Phuket Town was within easy reach and, after a fascinating night out in Patong - aptly described as a cross between Sodom and Gomorrah and Benidorm without the class - we were all the more delighted to return to our peaceful retreat in Cape Panwa.
If asked to pinpoint the highlight of our unforgettable holiday, it would have to be the boat trips to Phi Phi and James Bond Island, onboard 'Blue Lena'. On the way back, we were taken to a spot where the dolphins are known to 'hang out' and had the sublime experience of sitting on the bow of the yacht enjoying a sundowner, whilst watching a pod of fifty or so beautiful creatures dance in the boat’s wake – unmissable! One of life's magical moments.
Would I recommend Apartment C6 to others? Without a doubt. Enjoy!
