We stayed there with some friends and were delighted. It is very clean and well kept, the rooms are big, and are provided with fresh towels every day, soap and shampoo. They also provide you with bottles of water every day, which is very rare because usually all the guesthouses charge for that. The bedding is good, there is A/C... More

We stayed here in February 2013. It was a great little guest house and it was very clean. It was a little difficult for us to find at first but once we did it was in a great location. Terje, the owner, was very-friendly. The food was very good. The lady who was cooking was from Nepal and my husband... More

I stayed at this guesthouse twice - in December 2012 and November-December 2011. The location is just perfect - 5 min walk from Kata, very close to Karon. Next to a great Thai SPA. Terje, the owner, is very helpful and will accomodate all of your needs - he's a source for all the information you may need - tours,... More

Booked three nights on Phuket in this guesthouse online while spending a month in Thailand. Terje, the owner, was super-friendly and nice. He helped us with booking a boat trip to islands and with renting a motorbike. Our room (number 6) was clean and cosy. The wi-fi internet was included in the price and the connection was fast. The breakfast... More

Tucked in a quiet, clean lane a block off the main road through Kata beach, Southern Fried Rice is a wonderful escape from the noise and crowds, yet convenient to to everything Kata has to offer. The rooms are huge (we had room 7), clean and airy (aircon also included). Host Terry is friendly, helpful and able to negotiate excellent... More

Booked online in July due to the amount of positive comments on TA. When we arrived in November we were disappointed to find a large construction site immediately behind the hotel. Building work started bang on 8am - there was no let up from the noise or dust. We had stupidly pre-paid in full as we thought Kata would be... More

We booked online after reading reviews and deciding what we were looking for - clean, cheap, safe rooms close to Kata Beach- could be found at SFR Guesthouse. After some initial confusion with our booking - which the owner Terje sorted out and found us an alternative bed in a neighboring guesthouse for the night after a complimentary meal -... More

I booked this place due the overwhelming great reviews, and was disappointed soon after I arrived. The owner greeted us (I was traveling with a friend) and could not remember our reservation. I had to show him the confirmation email I had received from him. No big deal. He did not have the room that we had discussed, but did... More

Stayed for 2 nights and had a great time. The Guesthouse is in the perfect location not far from Kata Center, and only 5 minutes to the beach thru shortcut. The atmosphere around the guesthouse is very nice and quiet, still many shops and restaurants nearby. The room (no.5) is spacious and very clean with lots of light, comfy bed... More
