“Great Beach Getaway”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We had a wonderful family holiday at this resort. We were a party of 6 adults and 2 older children. Booking direct with the resort was very easy as was arranging a private mini bus transfer. The beachfront bungalows are large, the large grassy shady area between them and the beach made it easy to relax and get out of the sun when needed. The pool is huge and clean and overlooks the beach. The resort is at the quiet end of the beach which was a bonus as further down the beach it was a bit hectic. The food was standard but nice but other restaurants are not that far down the beach and many more in the small town. The resort is at the end of a point and a couple of km from town but there are tuk tuks right outside. We hired bikes for our entire stay so didn't feel isolated at all. The staff were very pleasant and attentive. The only real issue was inconsistent hot water. I think that overall they had most things covered to a reasonable standard and good value for money.

Room Tip: Beach front rooms are very big and have great views to the beach. Standard aircon rooms are smaller...

“Peaceful, Quiet and Tranquil!!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 December 2011

we went here in low season so there was only 1 other couple staying here. Really nice classy bungalows with a comfortable bed the restaurant is quite nice too. Swimming pool is great and only a 10 second run for a dip into the ocean, it is a bit out from the main road but if you have everything with you ya wont need to leave!!

“If you want a hideaway, this is the place.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 October 2011

Need to take 2 ferry crossings to get to this resort. Chalet was clean and comfortable except the bathroom which housed some small ants which gave some nasty bites and itches. Beach not so lovely. It was muddy during low tides. If you want a more special and fresher food, pay the restaurant operator to get fresh seafood from the market. He can cook some fantastic dishes according to your taste.

We have stayed at this resort during 2009,and 2011.It has a nice view of the beach and sea,with great sunsets.Good size pool overlooking the sea. Accommodation satisfactory and close by.Restaurant a bit limited,but a short walk along the beach takes you to other outlets.Suggest renting a scooter to get onto the main drag.Approx 1km away. Low season average prices per night 800 baht .Staff were friendly enough throughout our stay. Rated 7/10. Brit abroad.

“run down, not worth the money, poor service”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 May 2011 via mobile

unfortunately this resort has not been well maintained at all. Gardens are bare and overgrown, pool is a little dirty and has algae in some spots, rooms are musty smelling. Stayed in a beach front bungalow which we booked through a travel agent and over paid for the convenience of using an agent but then upon departure the hotel tried to make us pay a different rate than what was quoted on our travel voucher. After several phone calls by reception, the front desk finally agreed to the rate listed on our travel voucher. I will say that the people of thailand are generally very kind and the front desk girl was very polite and nice about the situation, but it was still annoying to argue over price when we had a quoted rate. This property looks nothing like the pictures or brochure. It could be nice if they maintain it with more appreciation.
