The breakfast buffet had a lot of options though the food was not that tasty. There is an egg station and the eggs cooked to order were delicious.
The property is in need of repairs due to getting older. 2 out of he 3 pools are nice.

We see a family of 5 and had 2 rooms right next to each other with inter-joining balconies. It made life easy as we didnt have to keep knocking on each others doors could just access through the balcony. We had beautiful pool views (the pool area is an absolute highlight). Our rooms were spacious and clean. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Its worth paying for the buffet breakfast, one of the best we've had. We made use of the fitness centre (multiple machines were out of order which was disappointing).

A great hotel to families. Good location (to beach you need to walk about 800m), everything is near and staff was amazing!
Breakfast was also really good. We dont have nothing bad to say about this hotel.

We enjoyed our stay at Kata Palm we thought it was good value. It’s a beautiful serene setting especially the pool and the refurbished rooms are great. They are currently doing construction so you would want to check your room is away from any noise. The staff were all fantastic to deal with, especially Sutisa at the tour desk who helped with our activities. The area in Kata is near the beach and lot of great restaurants.
The breakfast was fine, it changed daily and there was plenty to eat

We enjoyed our time at Centara Kata. The resort is getting a bit tired overall (pool area, sun loungers and some parts of rooms) but the staff was fab, the location suited us and it met our needs perfectly. The grounds were lovely and the pool options were varied and there was something for everyone in our family. I would recommend the breakfast also, delicious options that varied each day and were fresh and interesting.
