We booked THE CLIFF at Ao Nang on the net less than 2 hours before arriving, just before leaving Kao Sok national park to the North.
The receptionist presented our registration document calmly in a folder like we had been expected for weeks - we were impressed, we were sure they would pick not up on it in time for our arrival. The valet was standing by to carry luggagge, we were off to our room without delay.
First impressions were of something from a calmer more elegant time, it was almost hidden away, while still being just off the main street, just a little further out than the noisy bars, but still easy walking to the beach. It was interesting to learn that it was one of the earliest hotels established in Ao Nang.
it was cool quiet luxury with a bit of flare - a boutique hotel if you like.
The room was tasteful with natural colours/items/fabrics - bamboo etc, loved the bathroom with garden.
Very private, sitting round the pool you felt like you were very far away from the bustle, it felt private and exclusive, there were terrific views of great limestone kasts - hence the name THE CLIFF. Be sure to get the right Cliff hotel - it's THE CLIFF opposite Yamaha building.
The staff were delightful and a special mention to the very capable, charming and efficient manager - Pimchana - who was more than helpful - organising trips, giving advice and all with a very personal touch. She and 'The Cliff' will go far, we cannot recommend it highly enough.
