“Good value close to Khao Lak”

The hotel was very good value, with large room and large bed, good bathroom with bath and shower, room had fridge, kettle, TV, hairdryer, desk etc price was only 2,500 compared to nearby Khao Lak hotels four or five times the price or more.

The hotel was very good value, with large room and large bed, good bathroom with bath and shower, room had fridge, kettle, TV, hairdryer, desk etc price was only 2,500 compared to nearby Khao Lak hotels four or five times the price or more. The issue is access you need to take a short ferry boat.The passenger ferry is frequent but the car ferry is limited 7:30-17:30 only 7 trips. You could pay to park your car on the mainland side and take the passenger ferry. If you call the hotel they will send a car to pick you up at the ferry. It is only a few minutes drive. The hotel has a buffet breakfast. There is a large swimming pool, gym and spa. It is on the waterfront with a sandy beach, which was very quiet. The pool has sun beds but these were grabbed early by the customers from Russia and Germany (ha ha) so we opted for chairs in the shade to read a book. We did a day trip tour to the Similan Islands which was very well organized. The dinners in the seafood restaurant were very good quality and taste and not expensive. The staff are OK friendly but a bit slow, you need to chill out and relax - this is Thailand beach life not a city business hotel. The hotel decoration is a bit traditional Thai and very clean. The lift did not work but only one floor to ascend. I think it was good value and quality was great for the price. Paying four or five times higher for Le Meridien or similar does not give five times better quality or service.

“Once amazing but needs attention”

The hotel was clearly once an amazing place but it needs attention now. Beds were comfortable, shower powerful and breakfast really good. There was a foisty smell in our first room so we changed. Staff were lovely. The restaurants were soul-less, no music playing and very few diners so very quiet,… lisää

The hotel was clearly once an amazing place but it needs attention now. Beds were comfortable, shower powerful and breakfast really good. There was a foisty smell in our first room so we changed. Staff were lovely. The restaurants were soul-less, no music playing and very few diners so very quiet, but the food really good. Worth a walk down the beach to the next bar Pranee, good atmosphere and tasty food. Worth a stay if you get a good price (£45)

“Goodbye”

I am afraid we too are saying goodbye. We have stayed at this hotel more than ten times including two Christmas and New Year So unique ....glorious pool, beach villa over the sea, empty real beach, little village and local restaurants just a pleasant walk away.

I am afraid we too are saying goodbye. We have stayed at this hotel more than ten times including two Christmas and New Year So unique ....glorious pool, beach villa over the sea, empty real beach, little village and local restaurants just a pleasant walk away. So quiet no pool music ...fabulous. However this was all years ago......unfortunately no investment and each time we returned the hotel had become poorer. Our last visit was March 2018 and we decided, so reluctantly, that we could no longer stay where so much does not work or function. So so sad this was a unique find, kept it a secret to myself. Alas the dream is over.
