Delicious Meals

I truly enjoyed the food at the restaurant! The meals were really nice and offered throughout the day. The bar was almost open all-day, making it convenient to grab a bite and enjoy a drink. The spaghetti was surprisingly good, but do try the Strawberry Vodka cocktail; it's fantastic!

Relaxing Pool Experience

I loved lounging by the well-kept pool, which had a nice atmosphere. It was great to have a lovely area for sunbathing and relaxation, especially since the beach had a lot of jellyfish, making the pool a perfect alternative for swimming and chilling.

Comfortable Bungalows

The bungalows were well-furnished and provided a nice view of the garden. I really appreciated having a spacious area with a comfy king-sized bed, air conditioning, and a bathroom with hot showers. It made my stay very comfortable and enjoyable.

This hotel feels like a serene paradise with beautiful gardens and a stunning sea view from the bungalows. I loved the authentic Thai vibe and the family-run approach really made my stay special. However, my experience was marred by cleanliness issues in the room and the laundry service not meeting expectations. Despite these drawbacks, it's a charming location that I would consider returning to.

What a delightful escape! The hotel truly feels like a tropical oasis with its beautiful gardens and stunning sea views from the bungalow rooms. The staff, particularly Vee, went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. However, our room wasn't cleaned properly during our three-day visit, and the laundry service could use improvement. Overall, it was a lovely experience, but there are some areas that need attention.

The resort is a lovely tropical oasis with stunning gardens and a beautiful sea view from the bungalow. The staff went above and beyond to make my stay perfect, and I truly appreciated the serene atmosphere. However, I think there are some areas that need improvement, particularly when it comes to cleanliness in the rooms and maintenance of the laundry service. It's still better than alternatives in the area, but there are definitely room for enhancements.

I had a mixed experience at this resort spa. On one hand, the surroundings were absolutely stunning with beautiful gardens and a serene atmosphere, making it feel like a tropical oasis. The owners were incredibly welcoming and did everything to make my stay enjoyable. On the other hand, I found the rooms needed better attention to cleanliness, and some amenities were lacking. Overall, it was beautiful but could be improved in certain areas.
