with Big Pools and Spas!

Andaz Pattaya Jomtien Beach is a design-led Hyatt resort with one MICHELIN Key, opened in early 2023 as the first Andaz in Thailand, scoring 9.2 from 718 Trip.com reviews. It sits on more than 15 acres of beachfront land at Na Jomtien, facing Tawanron Beach — known as Sunset Beach because the sun drops straight into the sea here. What guests mention most is the design, which weaves Thai craft and natural materials through the whole resort; rooms start at 50 sqm with a balcony each, some with a private pool, and there are 3 pools including one right by the beach. It's a quiet, restful resort about 30 minutes from Walking Street.

InterContinental Pattaya Resort is a 5-star resort built down a forested headland on Pratumnak Hill, facing the bay with views out to Koh Larn, scoring 8.9 from 567 Trip.com reviews and 8.8 on Booking. There's a private sandy beach at the bottom. What guests mention most is the run of 3 lagoon-style pools stepping down towards the sea, and the Club Lounge, which serves afternoon tea and evening cocktails free for Club rooms. Rooms start at a roomy 51 sqm, each with a balcony. It's a quiet hillside resort away from the noise of town, with a complimentary shuttle into the centre.

U Pattaya is a small resort on a quiet beach at the far south, between Jomtien and Bang Saray, built around privacy, scoring 9.3 from 230 Trip.com reviews. It's designed in a fishing-village style with timber and bamboo, and has just 44 rooms and villas. What guests mention most is the private beach, which is genuinely quiet because it's well away from town, plus a beachfront infinity pool and a rooftop bar over the sea. Sea-view rooms start at 32 sqm with a Jacuzzi, and there are pool villas for anyone wanting a private pool. Service is a recurring theme in reviews — staff are close and hands-on.

Renaissance Pattaya is a Marriott resort at Na Jomtien, facing a private beach on the quieter southern stretch where the sand is cleaner than in town, scoring 9.2 from 490 Trip.com reviews. It's laid out low-rise across gardens. What guests mention most is the private beach you can walk straight down to, three pools, and a wide breakfast. Rooms are spacious and modern, some with a sea-view balcony. Reviews regularly praise cleanliness and the staff, and it suits both couples and families after a quiet beach.

Grande Centre Point Pattaya is a 5-star hotel in a 32-storey tower in the city centre, linked straight into Terminal 21 mall, with a rooftop sky pool and water park up top, scoring 9.4 from 2,515 Trip.com reviews — the most here. The headline is the rooftop level, which holds both a pool with a swim-up bar and a children's water park. Almost every room has a balcony, and high floors on the sea side look over Pattaya Bay. It's the luxury pick for anyone who wants a central, mall-linked location within walking distance of the beach, but still a sky pool and a view. It works for couples and families alike (kids get the water park).

Cross Pattaya Oceanphere is an all-villa resort at Bang Saray in the south, where every villa has its own private pool, built around privacy and design, scoring 9.0 from 270 Trip.com reviews. It's a cluster of 59 modernist villas. What guests mention most is the spacious villas with a private pool and a tub, plus the resort's central pool and bar. It suits couples, families or groups who want their own space. Worth knowing: the resort is not directly on the beach, but it runs a shuttle to Bang Saray Beach — come here for the private pool and the privacy rather than sand at your door.
