I LOVED the staff. All of them. I LOVE the property. I LOVED the Thai cuisine. I LOVED all the activity and cultural offerings. It offered peace for the soul - which is what I desperately needed. It was a perfect, perfect adventure for my daughter and me.

Dinah

The staff were wonderful, consistently and genuinely wonderful! 3 days is not nearly enough to enjoy the full measure of this resort, and I plan to return some time when I can spare a week. The activities on offer were comprehensive and compelling, though some demand a level of fitness above what you might be prepared for (I definitely pushed my limits at times.) The pavilions are clean, well maintained, and carry every comfort (except sunscreen, which can be purchased at the boutique.) Upon arrival, pay close attention to the orientation, as some of the best experiences require a day's notice and the spa itself is very popular.

This was one of the best experiences of our lives, if a little pricey. If you can splurge a bit, this will be a place you always remember. We had the room with the hydropool. From the staff to the location to the room to the food, it was incredible. Definitely get one of the rooms with a pool! It is worth it for a few extra bucks. We can't wait to return.

“Unique, Speacial - yet plenty of to-be-desired..”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Stayed 4 nights
Honestly - plenty of things: - Breakfast is some that inconsistent experience, food is varied, sometimes very skewed towards Asian breakfast, with limited international choice. For our taste, this was least enjoyable breakfast out of all the places we stayed this year. - A property surrounded by 3 beaches, actually doesn't have a beach experience for guests. There is no private beach, there is no even some reserved/managed area on any of the beaches for hotel guests. Unbelievable..! - Beaches aren't clean, due to enormous amount of tourists around, and this creates true conflict in tranquility - while the resort itself is protected and private, the crowds around are so massive and soo noisy..! The whole day, from early morning to late night, you will listening to motors of 100s boats coming on the beaches - There is too much wildlife on the resort. It is not enjoyable to bump into large iguana on the dark path to a dinner or being woke-up at 6am by monkeys making loud bump noise as they are jumping from one roof to another of the pavilions. There are also a lot of mosquitos while walking through the resort - be sure to use repellent every single time you need to walk outside. - Almost no pool service. Towels are given, but then there are just 1 or 2 folks sometimes coming around to ask what you want. So if you want something, you have to navigate yourself towards beach restaurant. - I would appreciate more buggies (golf carts) being available for transfers within the resort - again, because of the wildlife and simply not feeling safe/comfortable. - Management isn't not present while the stay. Apart of initial greeting, there is no presence through the remaining experience - either dinners or breakfast time, etc. - Wi-Fi isn't available through the entire resort (why?) and badly works at Pavilions (we had to call twice in 4 days someone to come and fix the internet connection in room).
It is truly unique and unusual place, in beautiful surroundings, something which makes the 1st time visit here a very special experience to remember afterwards. It feels a bit aged already, but nothing breaking yet. Beautiful pool - even just one, but large and with the adjustment of kids pool is nicely convenient for families. Great food - we tried all 4 restaurants and special barbecue dinner by the pool, everything food was great. The most beloved dinning came from Thai restaurant and from main restaurant next to reception (European food - top-notch made!). We had a great Thai cooking class experience, very nicely organized, with a lot of personal participation and true learning about Thai food and ingredients. There is also great program for kids, with weekly schedule and 2 different activities per day, morning and afternoon. The attention to our kid was fantastic and really going extra mile to deliver a valuable and memorable experience for him. Staff is wonderful, friendly, extremely mature, knowledgeable and professional in what they do. To a great surprise - the hotel boutique is absolutely amazed me with what's on offer (and I'm not a shopping person really) - the collection is stunningly beautiful, great things to take back. I liked a lot their naturally inspired cosmetics, sad forgot to take them home..

“A paradise with a little bitter taste”

We asked about the transfer from and to the airport. After a couple of exchanges they conveniently took time to answer to my enquiry, so we end up paying them double what you can actually pay if you arrange it without the hotel. So we did on the way back and we paid even less than half. Also they told us to book the restaurants as it could have been fully booked and for 2 nights we did to find out we were almost the only one in 2 of their 4 restaurants. The other nights then we ventured out to eat in other hotel.
Blissful with a little but! The place is amazingly well maintained. Amazing rooms, extremely clean, quite and comfortable. We loved the swimming pool and the access to the beach. Excellent breakfast. They staff is very friendly and very smiley.

The food is great, the facilities are great, housekeeping was great, In-room dining was excellent and the easy access to the 2 beautiful beaches was great. The most enjoyable resort we visited in Thailand. You can easily notice that the management team is one of the best.

We can not fault the resort or the staff. We had a wonderful stay.
We loved the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff who did everything they could to make our stay comfortable. The service was very good. We loved the food, particularly at the Thai restaurant which had beautiful flavours. We stayed for four nights and ate there twice. The resort also catered for my husband who is a celiac and needed gluten free. The staff were very accommodating. The breakfast was very good and gave us a good start to the day to get us to dinner time. There was lunch available at two of the restaurants as well as the street food available in the local village which was a short stroll from the resort. We kayaked, went on a snorkeling cruise and had a massage at the day spa. There are many boat trips out to the island to choose from. I also loved the fact the resort is trying to reduce their waste and impact on the environment by using paper straws, glass water bottles, refillable body wash and cream, no plastic bags lining the bins etc. Very impressive.
