Ekman
Garden Resort, Nakorn Si Thammarat
When returning after a year I find the resort as friendly and familylike
as I remembered. The food is sill as fantastic. It felt like coming
home. So much so it was hard restraining myself from taking the dishes
out at wash it mayself. I stayed for for days first and then returned
for the Song Kran. At the first visit I participated in a wedding
that was arranged between a japanese girl and a thai boy and the experience
was outstanding. The same can be said about the visit to the temple
at Song Kran. I was treated with utmost respect and as I am a simple
person that was a memory for a lifetime. Visiting a nearby beatiful
waterfall it was clear that it was far from its full potential causted
by lack of water, but to swim at the base was nice. On two occasions
I took the 20 minute walk in the hot sun and could swim in the sea.
Although the pool is nice, it can never compete with the real thing.
Especially as it gives you the feeling of Robinson as you are almost
totally alone. Which you cannot say of the bigger roads where you
got wet as the new year was greeted with watersplashing. If I would
have had time, I would probably take the chance of very cheap golf
in Nakohn si Thammarath only 45 minutes away, but not this time. And
as I am surely returning when my wallet permits, the occasion will
arise again. Good work Ekmans |

The hotell has nice big clean rooms and very friendly staff. The restaurant
offers good various food and the atmospehere is relaxed. There is
a beatiful calm beach 15 minutes walk from the hotell since there
is no other hotell in the neigbourghood. We recommend this hotell. |

Ekman Garden Resort, Nakorn Si Thammarat
We stayed at Ekman Garden three times (5 + 3 + 2 days) under our two
months long staying in Thailand.. We booked the first five days on
a recommendation at the internet and we definitely not regret. Then
we returned for three days and celebreted the NEW YEAR and finally
we stayed for two days to relax and pick up our luggage before the
journey home to Sweden. We found the resort very charming and hospitable.
The atmosephere is very homely and quiet and that made us feel more
like familymembers than customers. The hosts, Anna and Staffan with
family and staff are very friendly and take an active interest in
their guests. The rooms are high qualitative and tastefully decorated
and furnished. We really enjoyed the rooms and the beautiful surroundings.
And the food -- delicious. Anna is an excellent cook and she surpriced
us every evening with different meals, beautiful- delicious and healthy.
Outside the resort, at the Thailand countryside, you don?t meet tourists,
but thai people with big smiles and we find it very charming. We recommend
Ekman Garden resort and we love to come back. Thank you Anna, Staffan,
Pee-Pee and Leo. Sixten o Barbro Kieri from Lulea* Sweden |

Ekman Garden Resort, Nakorn Si Thammarat
This is one of the nicest places that we have stayed at anywhere in
Thailand. Away from the madding crowds it is a very peaceful and beautifully
designed litte resort. Hosts Anna and Staffan will make your stay
one of the memorable experiences. Anna is an excellent cook and all
the meals are prepared with local fresh produce, it is simply magnificent.
My wife and I would highly reccommend Ekman Gardens as great value
for money with Five Star Service. Thank you Anna and Staffan for a
wonderful holiday. |

Ekman guards the nice and friendly Paradies on ground connection.
As much-many Thailand friends and I already many plants saw my wife.
The Ekman Paradies was for us the most beautiful time which we in
Thailand to experience was allowed. Apart of hecticness and stress.
light frames friendly Bungalows from a flower sea, brook runs with
beautiful fish, butterflies and birds. Nature purely. The maintained
pool forms the heart of the plant. The love-worth and very friendly
owners Staffan and Anna accepted us as to your family. Anna is a point
cook. With your extrvaganten creations surprised you us each evening.
Simply delicious! The parting fell us very heavily and we to the place
of the recovery will surely return. Thank Staffan, Anna and Pee Pee.

We were very welcomed by the owners of the resort, enjoyed their friendliness,
our room and other facilities and most of all the beautiful garden
surroundings. Everything was up to standard and we intend to stay
there again one day. |

It was the second time I spent some wonderful days at Ekman Gardens.
And it will certainly be a third time sooner or later. I not only
appreciate the beauty and the comfort of the resort, I also very much
enjoy the hospitality and personalities of Staffan and Anna, whom
I?ve learnt to know, and I now look at them as personal friends. It
goes without saying that the food is exquisite and the drinks are
well balanced. Bertil Goldberg |

I was very satisfied with my stay at Ekman Garden Resort. The atmosphere
was very relaxing and homely, and this made me feel more like the
member of an extended family than like a customer . The fact that
Nakhon is not a very touristic area made it possible for me to experience
genuine Thai culture. |

Ekman Garden Resort, Nakorn Si Thammarat
As a common traveller, I found the resort very charming and hospitable.
It was my 8?th visit to Thailand and the hosts Staffan and Anna wellcommed
me as a part of the family. The food was even better than the normal
thai style. It was in a way a crossover between Thailand and Europe.
Some of the thai exentric idees was gone and as I do not have a metallbin
inside, I am greatful to Anna, as she took me gently into the kitchen.
Tastes were fantastic. In Micheline terms: well worth a detour. As
for the suroundings I did not really need to leave, but the visit
to the nearby beach was pleasant and was free of all normal salespersons.
And the visit to the nearby shirtshop made it possible to bring a
really personal gift home to my daughter. I will shurely visit again
allthough I do not know if it will be 2007 or 2008. |

Ekman Garden Resort, Nakorn Si Thammarat
We truly recommend Ekman Garden Resort because our visit there was
superb in many ways. The rooms and hotel area are quite unique with
a good taste regarding space and special architecture. The service
was good with a nice touch of family atmosphere, because the hotel
is family driven. They were also very concerned about their guests
which furthermore strengthened the atmosphere. For example: The owners
and stab gives the guests much more personal attention than normally
and it feels truly genuine and very nice. Finally, there is one last
thing that gives Ekman Garden Resort our warmest recommendations -
The food -excellent! If you are going to Thailand and that region,
do not hesitate -Ekman garden is the given hotel ! |
