Detailed Reviews
PVR is a nice hotel at the South end of Ngapali Beach. It is next to the fishing village, so the beach itself is dotted with boats. As has ALL of Ngapali hotels these days, prices have skyrocketed through the roof.
Be forewarned - hotels charge you IN ADVANCE...so I suggest paying per night.
If your itinerary should change for any reason, you are NOT given a refund but a credit voucher to be used within a short period of time.

Room Tip: Beach front is always the best. If out of your budget - stay on the North side of the property.

Our room was facing the beach and that is where we stayed most of the time. There weren't many people in the hotel when we were there and we had our choice of beach chairs. The wifi was excellent and reached the beach. The restaurant where we had our breakfast was sometimes closed at lunchtime, so we ate most of our meals along the road.

We stayed 7 nights at this nice location. 2 adults and 3 kids in a double cabin. When we arrived there were only 4 beds. We asked for the 5th bed and the message was that they would charge us 50USD per night. Via our travel agency we managed to get it down to 25USD.
The stay was pleasant with a view. However the experience was a bit ruined upon checkout when we were presented with a bill of 150USD because they could not clean the sheets and pillows. We did not do anything out of the ordinary like throwing a party. This must be included as a running cost in a hotel at this price level.

Wow where do I start we had a fabulous time at the lovely Pleasant View Hotel snd relax on the beautiful beach?
We found the staff very friendly and extremely hard working.
Breakfast was good and lovely to sit and watch the world wake up. We spent long walls and used the bikes which were free to explore the surrounds.
The sunsets were fabulous and I really believe this is one of the best spots on the stunning beach.
This was the perfect end of our time in Myanmar after a busy but wonderful tour exploring Yangon, Bagan, Mandalay and Inle Lake. We didn’t want to leave!

Stayed here for the final 4 nights of 21 in Burma. Couldn't have chosen a better place. It is at the southern end of the beach and just about the final hotel heading south from the airport. There are a few negatives - there is no pool, which doesn't bother us but some may find disappointing, the grounds are a bit "rough" and not quite as nicely manicured as some of the other resorts up the beach and the area does seem to attract a number of feral dog packs. Apart from this the resort has one major advantage in that there is no such thing as a "bad" room - all the rooms face the sea and have an identical view. I noticed that in some of the other resorts there were beach-view bungalows and then others that were set well back in the resort with no sea view. Breakfast was good and the chef prepares different items for the buffet each day. Other reviewers have mentioned the smell of drying fish from the nearby village, but we didn't smell anything.
The thing we enjoyed most about staying at Ngapali beach was the fresh seafood. The resort has its own restaurant on a little island but when I checked out the prices I noticed that the same things were 3 times more expensive than nearby restaurants. So I figured it's the same fish, landed at the same time (about 6am) and bought from the same market so we ate at either the shacks on the beach next to the resort, or on the road behind the hotel - there are two restaurants and the Blue Sea was excellent. The advantage of eating at the restaurants (as opposed to the shacks) is that if more than 2 groups turn up then the staff can cope with the crowd!
If/when we return to Burma I would love to stay here again.

Stayed here two years ago and gave it 5 stars - a rare accolade - so we were looking forward to staying here again after three weeks travelling round Myanmar.
Have to say we were somewhat disappointed this time for two reasons. We stayed in a beachfront bungalow which was what we stayed in last time. But it was very noticeable that the room furniture was looking very dated, scratched and the lighting in the room was poor - when we wanted to look in the suitcase we needed a head torch. In addition there's just nowhere to store clothes as the small wardrobe is taken up by the room safe and there are no drawers so you spend all the time trying to find clothes in your suitcase. We mentioned this to the front desk and suggested it was time to update the rooms but were told that the owner was spending her money on a hotel in Yangon. The list price for this room is about $180 and if you were spending this kind of money on hotels in the US and UK you would expect a much higher standard of room. Of course Myanmar is different and if there was more competition, i.e. more hotels on the beach then we'd complain that the beach was being ruined!
There are newer rooms at the back of the hotel, next to the road but they don't have a sea view and we were told by people staying in these rooms that there was quite a lot of road noise.
All the other reasons for staying in this hotel are still valid - the location at the end of the beach, the small island where the restaurant is and still unspoilt nature of the beach. The hotel doesn't have a pool though and this may be a negative for some.

My wife and I recently completed a three day stay at this beach hotel. After three weeks of virtual non-stop travelling through Myanmar we found this place to be the perfect place to kick back and simply relax.
From our pick- up at the airport to our departure some days later we experienced nothing but wonderful service by smartly dressed young people whom were always ready to ensure that your stay was perfect in every way.
Our double room was on the beach front and it contained everything a weary traveller would want. Spotlessly clean bedding, a comfortable bed, room to spread out to repackage and reorganize, quiet and effective air conditioning and large walk in shower room. In fact the shower was in a separate alcove from the toilet and we found this convenient.
Breakfast , which was included with our rate, was buffet - style and included a wide range of food,including both Asian and Western-style choices. All was freshly prepared and attractively presented.
We had several lunches and an evening meal in their restaurant and found all to our liking and the prices within reason. Their restaurant on the "island" was in a particularly nice sitting and it was a delight to seat there and gaze over at the setting sun.
As for the beach itself it was always raked and clean and there was never a problem in having a comfortable sun lounge chair on which to rest.
One hundred metres from the hotel were two fishing villages and we particular lying enjoyed visiting these in the early mornings and watching as the night's catch was unloaded, sorted, weighed and distributed. We found this process fascinating. The local villagers were happy to see us and we never made to feel out of place as we wandered around the paths of their village.
This hotel is at one end of the beach and as such is away from the hustle and bustle of the town area, this may or may not not appeal to some travellers. We enjoyed the quiet time.
We were not only reluctant to leave Pleasant View Resort but also Ngapali Beach and Myanmar itself.
We will undoubtedly return.

Not on the beach by PVR, only on the street. Bars and restaurants on the beach are the other end of the beach 30 min walk.
Oui, il y a de nombreux restaurants tout près de l'hôtel. Les plats sont à environ 4-6 euros. Pas beaucoup de magasins pour faire du shopping. Bonne soirée.
Ja, Kreditkartenzahlung ist möglich.
Bonjour, cet hotel correspond à un 4 étoiles français. Bonne soirée.
