to get started.

The staff was AMAZING! We did the cooking class with them and they were great. If we did a tour then they would give us advice on what to do. The location was far enough away from the business and close enough that their free shuttle was quick and easy to hop on/off. Property was beautiful secluded area that was close to a breathtaking cliff. Breakfast was also excellent!

The hotel ran shuttles to/from Krabi [AoNang Beach] hourly. This made it very easy to get to the beach and explore the surrounding areas. Staff was helpful with any questions I had and also suggested tours and dinner spots to catch sunset.

The resort was in a great location within the jungle so it had excellent views from around the pool and it was only a 5 minute drive from Ao Nang. The staff were extremely helpful and polite during our stay. We only ate breakfast at the resort which we really enjoyed, it offered; fruits, breads, omelettes, yoghurts and also Thai dishes like fried rice etc so there was lots of variation. The bathroom was great with a separate bath and shower and it was very clean. The TV offered some English channels with movies and programmes so we were able to watch TV in the room. One of the best perks of the hotel was the free shuttle bus to Ao Nang every hour from 9am - 9pm.

A lovely hotel, a short tut tut ride away from Ao Nang beach. The hotel offers a free shuttle bus every hour which is great as other wise it cost 100baht through the hotel or 200 from town. Very quiet location with a beautiful view of the mountains. Nice big bed and spacious rooms.

With the hotel being located in the jungle the we found the amount of mosquitos and other bugs was very high. We both got bitten every night multiple times which was very annoying. However, the day we were leaving there was a mosquito fumigation being carried out so whether or not that will have reduced the number of mosquitos I’m not sure. We found the WiFi was slightly intermittent in the room so we were not able to stream any movies. Finally we found the air con was loud during the night but all in all we had a great stay.

“Not what I was expecting”
- • Leisure trip

The hotel is meant to be 4 stars but even though it has 4 star intallations there’s no concierge. The people do not speak proper english and sometimes is difficult to communicate. If you are someone that is scared of insects and animals this is not the place for you as on the first night we saw a spider and on the 3rd night we had to change rooms because of an animal in the room. We had to change again to another room on the 6th day as eventhough we told them that the “new” room had wifi issues they never followed up with the problem. They weren’t very willing into giving us a compensation eventhough it meant packing for the 3rd time to move to a different room. The breakfast is very poor. I believe is because is low season but the buffet was very upsetting. Not enough fruit and I felt that I had to beg for breakfast everyday as somedays they will have an “a la carte menu” which in theory you could order as much as you want but several times they told us that we could only order one plate. We also tried to have a late check out as our plane was at 8 pm but they told us that the only way was by paying £10 per hour which is ridiculous specially because as being low season there is no one in the installations and did not need the room ASAP. Those little things are important factors to take into account when considering it a 4 star hotel
The installations are very good! Very quiet hotel very romantic! Love the atmosphere and the rooms are huge plus the views are spectacular

The staff are incredibly attentive and helpful. The food is of exceptional quality, as are the cocktails; and considering the quality of the hotel, it is still quite cheap. The cleanliness of the hotel is impeccable and the views are amazing from poolside, which adds to the relaxed environment. They also offer airport transfer to Krabi Airport an hour away. We would not look anywhere else if we were to return to Ao Nang. Beautiful.
