very good selection of food, often cooked freshly for you, particularly liked the choice of starters which were all kept in a chilled room behind closed doors to keep fresh, along with the desserts, good value

So, this was a long painful night of overpriced food. We went to the buffet based on recommendations from some other guests. We wish we hadn't and ventured behind the resort to Phi Phi Island Village to go to Tuna's restaurant again. The small selection of seafood they had available was gone before you could ever get to it. We... More

We ate in the Marlin restaurant several times during our stay. There was always plenty of variety and the food was always cooked fresh which was really nice. You also have the option of dining from the A La Carte menu if you would prefer this to the buffet.

If you want to eat Thai food and in addition want to know how it's done - this is first choose. The quality of the food is really-really good, the stuff is friendly and fast in service. I absolutely recommend taking part on the weekly (Wednesday) Thai-dinner-night and also having a Thai cooking class, which is possible every day by... More

Very good food but service can be improved. Nice relaxed atmosphere and live music makes for a good night out. The food and drinks are on the expensive side but not to bad for a resort restaurant. Good menu with excellent seafood and authentic Thai dishes.

We liked the fact you didnt have to book at this one. You could arrive when you liked. However there was an option to book a front ocen view table if you wanted to. The selection of food available was great from Pizzas, to hamburgers, Rice and Thai food. The pricing left a little to be desired, however mostly ok.

The restaurant is located in the best beach hotel we've been and has a beautiful view of the beach, which makes all the more dissappointing the food and service. The service is slow and distracted, while the food is average.

We ate here a few times, simply because it was more relaxed than Ruan Thai and more like a restaurant than Coconut Grill. The food was good on all occasions but we found the service just really slow and with bad timing. We got our starters at different times, and after we got starters they brought the bread with dips,... More
