Salad
Beach Resort, Salad Beach
I have visited this particular beach a lot and saw this resort being
built. A few of my friends have stayed there over the years and yet
this was my first stay after it was built 6 years ago. I would say
that I thought the rooms were very dated and needed a face lift. The
sink taps were really annoying as they wouldn t stay switched on and
there was no plug in the sink! My boyfriend had a real issue with
this for shaving reasons! Half the staff in the main restaurant were
pleasant. But the other half were pretty rude and looked like they
hated being there. Nothing like the other places on the beach. There
was a really obvious difference in staff here compared with anywhere
else. The most shocking thing though was that the manager on the front
desk who greets all new clients was the most rude thai man I have
ever met. He was the most miserable person I have ever met too...
surely this is not the kind of front desk staff you require in Hospitallity!
This man is easy to identify as he is the only man on front desk wearing
pony tails and painted finger nails. To be fair I only booked at this
resort because Salad Hut was full. But we did have a very pleasant
stay. The pool is lovely and the room was fine.... Haad Salad Beach
is what made the holiday great not the hotel. |

Hotel nice.We stayed in hotel building room above reception which
was nice but we could hear the neighbours every move through adjoining
door also a bit far away from pool + beach.would advise a pool,garden
or beach bungalow.Nice quiet beach, shallow waters so good for our
3yr old. Many children staying at hotel,a good place for families.Staff
very friendly.Breakfast very good.Pancakes made to any shape you want
if you fancy a crocodile or shark.Good stay for somewhere quiet.Bikes
easy to hire to travel round the island as not much to do around resort.Snorkelling
good tho.Hotel also hires out kayaks which is good fun for an hour.Would
go again. |

Upon arrival we didn t know what we were getting into, but once we
got in, what a wonderful place this is!! We even extended our stay
for few days more. The grounds are beautiful, the rooms were clean.
Food from restaurant was top notch. This is truly a gem that we d
want to keep to ourselves and not tell anyone else so we can keep
it to ourselves. Nute was an excellent ambassador for the english
speaking people. Everyone was always smiling and trying to make your
stay adventurous or just quiet along the pool. |

The service wasn?t good. The Staff didn?t even say hello when we arrived
and wasn?t intressting of the work or the guests. The Pickupservice
was late and expensive - thougt it was including the high rate - but
not. It was really noisy place with thin, thin walls. We did?nt sleep
very much at this place. The food at the restaurang is not to recommend.
Eat at another restaurang on the beach. On the day can you only stay
att the poolside cause the water was so high, no beach and the hole
beach was full of sandbags - not beatyful at all. We?ve been to Thailand
a lots of times and this was the only place we never come back to
and is not recomended! |

Very nice rooms, we stayed in the hotelpart closest to the beach and
had a spacious balcony overlooking the garden with a glimpse of water.
The restaurant and staff are excellent as well as the spa-staff. The
only minus is a shortage of sunbeds or rather that the custom of reserving
sunbeds with beachtowels is predominant. The beach however is a delight
with crystalclear water and some fairly good snorkeling to be had
just close by. All in all a resort to recommend. |

Overall impression is ok. (We stayed 5 times in Samui - this was our
first time in Phangan.) Salad Beach Resort has good room but - shower
is not seperated (Pool View Villa) from Toilet. Thats a bit unconvenient
as half of the washingroom is wet after shower. Pool has good size,
enough sunchairs all the time there. Restaurant is ok. Food is middle
class, service very nice and friendly. Reception of Hotel is not that
good - mostly unfriendly and need to be squeezed for a bit of info.
Beach was very very slim - but great for swimming and snorkeling.
ATM and supermarkets just around the corner. |

Nice and comfortable bungalows. Well kept resort. The hotelpart by
the front office is too far away from pool and beach if you travel
with children. Great beach for snorkeling, calm and very clear water.
The front office staff spoke very little english and were not too
friendly, but The boys at the restaurant are just fantastic!! The
cleaning personell aswell! |

We had a pleasant stay at Salad Beach. Unfortunately the weather was
not god, during our stay. Rainy and Windy. But the hotel was good
and clean and the staff at the restaurant were very nice, good service
and the thai food was very tasty. We were living in a bungalow, 2
adult and two children age 6 and 8. It was enough space but if you
will stay longer than 4 nights, I will recommend the larger beach/pool
bungalow. They looked much lager. The staff in the reception was a
bit slow, and the extra pillow we asked for never showed up. But we
had no problem during our stay, so the request for that extra pillow
was almost all contact we had with the reception. Remember not to
pay to much for your transfer from the ferry. The Taxi wanted 1000
bath to take us to the hotel, the driver finally accepted 750 bath.
But 500 bath is what you are supposed to pay. And we only paid 350
bath when we returned. |
