We stayed in a Junior Suite, which is in the newer, third wing of the resort. I didn't expect anything AMAZING, as we only paid about $250 each, for 7 nights.. really good deal! Overall, everything was fine. We were given 2 complimentary bottles of water each day as tap water in Thailand is no good. So that was very... More

Organised for me and 5 mates a room each to stay in May so we can hit the full moon party and definitely was not happy with this place. After coming from an EXCELLENT hotel in Patong, this place was a nightmare. Firstly each of us had rooms ALL OVER the place so we were very far from each other... More

I stayed here in December 2010. One of the friends I was travelling with booked the rooms because of the price and the location. Looking at photos on the website, it looked like a nice place to stay. I was disappointed when we got there. I thought we were staying in the newer part, but we were actually in the... More
