Tom Thailand

Away from the city, a great place to relax. The location is perfect for relaxation. Peaceful. Nature. Amazing.

Arnel Thailand

Perfect facilities compared to quite high price. There many nice staff but some of them still use inappropriately conversation with guests. Totally almost perfect.

Thunyanut Thailand

The hotel itself is fabulous. Facilities and amenities are great.

Yang Thailand

The location was perfect- nestled in the sai yok national park, the resort is perfect for quaint peaceful moonlit nights and lazy afternoons! The floating cottage was wonderful with the patio right on the river khwae noi. Comfortable and spacious cottages with all the privacy one can get. You can jump into the river right from the patio and float down the river. No restaurants or 711 nearby, but that is well compensated by the in house restaurant. Amazing food well worth the prices. Activities like canoeing etc can be arranged onsite as well.

Adnaan Thailand

Staff; Very helpful, friendly and spoke english well. They were terrific. Rooms: Terrific rooms with all the amenities needed. We were so comfortable and it was very nice listening to the river flow below us. Location: Out there and a great getaway but still has internet if you need it. Restaurant: Good food and nice staff. As expected, food is priced a little higher than other places but we were prepared for that and understand because it was a very nice hotel.

Peter United States of America

Everything. It was so unique and off the grid which was exactly what I wanted. Only 30 houses so place wasn’t crowded at all. Food was great right on river, staff was very polite and pleasant. Under hour from erawan national park and Waterfalls. Can jump off your personal porch and float down river. Was truly a unique place. And for the price, you will never do better.

Robert United States of America
