Location
Selina Serenity Rawai Hotel is situated in Rawai, Phuket, on Viset Road, approximately 34 km from Phuket International Airport. It lies directly on the first line of Rawai Beach, with a private beach platform 40 meters from the hotel. The nearest public beach, Chalong Beach, is about 800 meters away. Several local restaurants are within a short walking distance, including Mexican Plus (81 m) and The Coral Reef Cabana (96 m). The hotel is somewhat remote from the island’s central attractions, which some guests found a bit far for quick excursions. It offers free parking for those with vehicles and easy access to nearby food stores and shopping malls.
Tips
- Book a premium ocean view suite or villa if you want a balcony and scenic views, as some standard rooms lack balconies and face less pleasant views.
- Expect to communicate with reception via WhatsApp since rooms do not have phones.
- Arrive early for breakfast and poolside seating during peak times to secure a spot, as seating can be limited.
- Consider renting a vehicle to explore other beaches since the hotel’s beach is a platform on a public beach without sand.

Reviews
The restaurant and facilities seemed unable to accommodate many guests comfortably. During breakfast, seats were always insufficient; when sunbathing, there were not enough loungers; and at the bar, seating was limited. There were only two bartenders, so even with the free‑flow package, we waited around half an hour for a drink.
Overall, nothing particularly stood out about the hotel. Staff service was average, and since rooms don’t have phones, communication with the front desk had to be done via WhatsApp. Toilet paper was not adequately supplied, and when requested, it was left on a small table outside the room, which didn’t feel very hygienic.
Would not come back again.
