Grand
Sea Resort, Thong Sala
The rooms were nice and comfortable. Duncan, the manager was very
helpful and a great guy. The resturant had the least serviceminded
staff I ever came across in Thailand! Can?t recommend it to anyone.
Especially the older man was very aggressive and unfriendly toward
our family. However there were quite a few restaurants along the beach,
one just next door so choose them instead! |

This place was absolutely lovely. Its located about a 10 minute walk
from Thong Sala town and about a 15 minute taxi ride to Haad Rin.
The pool, staff, restaurant and bar were all great. We stayed in a
superior room for 1200 baht and it was great value for money. The
only qualm I had was that there was building going on while we there
and it was sometimes noisy but overall thins didnt really matter as
everything else was so good. Definately recommend. |

Well run and attractive resort offering great value for money and
good servlce in a convenient but quiet location.We enjoyed our stay
and loved the Island.Look no further,Grand Resort is good, you can
pay much more but end up with a lot less. |

A wonderful resort nice bungalow, and the garden. The pool is just
a few m from the sea and next to the resturant. They serv god food,
the english food is best, thai food could be better. The maneger is
lovely and very helpful. It takes about 20 minuts to walk to the city.
We recomend it. |

we weren t sure when booking this place what it would be like as there
are not many reviews but when we got there we were greeted by the
most friendliest helpful manager. he made our stay ten times better
and the actually setup of the place is good, restaurant and bar are
handy, pool is good. style of the place is great and rooms are clean.
so all in all loved this place especially the manager duncan. if i
came back to this island i would stay here. the only downfall is that
there isn t really a beach that you can walk onto out the back at
all there s just water but that didn t bother us too much. |

I have been visiting the Island now for 7 years and this has to be
the best place i ve stayed. The resort its self is a very lovely place
and is very pleasant on the eye. The rooms are fantastic with lots
of room and very clean with lovely hot showers and all have air con
and satelite t.v. The swimming pool was also fantastic and it s a
great bonus to have it there as many resorts advertise they have a
pool but do not have a pool as good as the one at Grand Sea. Duncan
was fantastic and could not do enough for me and my family. He was
always available to help and also was willing to organise anything
that we needed. He was a great hit with my daughter as he took her
out kayaking and also out into town when ever he went in. I would
recomend staying there to anyone who is visiting the island as it
a great place for families and Duncan is a fantastic host. When i
return to the island i will have no hesitation to return to Grand
Sea and stay. |

Well what can I say about Duncan that runs the place? Absolutely great
guy! He really made our stay there & sorted out the teething problems
we had on arrival. Firstly...Building work - Its everywhere in Thailand
& no escaping it! There was building work behind our room which we
d paid 3000baht a night for (V.expensive because of full moon party
& season & we thought well overpriced) & this did not include breakfast
either. We had a Ant issue in our bathroom & also some very loud cockerils
that randomly screached throughout the night & ruined any chance you
had of a decent nights sleep! This though as I mentioned is to be
expected everywhere and the rooms themselves are simple but ok. They
look great from the outside and the pools lovely aswell as the view
of the bay. Cant walk along the beach though as the tide is in early
& most of the day & I would advise strongly to hire jeeps whilst here.
Koh Phangnan is certainly party town & if you want to be near the
action, Haad rins the place for you but be warned, the roads to Haad
Rin are mad & not for the faint hearted! I can however reccomend a
great bar not far from Grand sea called The Amsterdamn bar If Amsterdamn
life is for you & you enjoy taking some time out to Chill Mon then
get yourself there, We had a great night there & even though it felt
like a thousand steps to get there, The ambient & chilled night we
had was well worth it! |

The resort like most of Koh Phangan and Koh Samui was affected by
the heavy rain, flooding in late October. The staff were courteous
and helpful but my Bungalow had at least 4 cockroaches and a couple
of spiders. I suspect that this was mainly due to do the heavy rain.
My friends had no problems with their two rooms. The resort is situated
on the beach and the pool is really nice. In better weather this place
would have been awesome. |

LEGENDARY PLACE! Loved my stay at the Grand Sea Resort and Duncan
was so so helpful in telling us where to go and what to do on the
island. Also own pool by the beach with lazy hammocks and all for
a very good price. Definatley would saty here again when I come back
to the island and thanks to Duncan for our leaving presents! AWESOME
PLACE AND AWESOME PEOPLE! |
