DO NOT STAY HERE! I stupidly ignored all the other comments left by
other people, I wish I hadn t! In a nutshell the staff are very, very
miserable. Unhelpful and generally look cheesed off with it all. I
had the deluxe room which was extrememly overpriced at 2600 baht per
night. The place is dirty and the breakfast even though it goes on
until 10.30, everything had run out at 9.50am and they didn t seem
keen to put anymore food out. Try the Silver Sands resort futher up
the beach. Great reviews from there. |

Beautiful garden, friendly staff, best location you can think of!
Rooms were OK. Cleaning was very good. Breakfast not the best in the
world but OK. The pool was not nice,but who needs a pool when the
best beach is outside the door?! |

Overall, the beach and restaurants are awesome...the rooms are overpriced
and a little dirty, the bed and pillows are horrible and the bathroom
has no shower curtain so water sprays everywhere. Find a different
hotel at this beach |

Good beach, good location. Peaceful and quiet gardenlike atmosphere.
Breakfast pretty simple but did the job. No smiles to be expected
from staff and English skills should be improved. Rooms clean enough.
Price a bit high for a place like this. |

Kind of disappointment staying in this hotel. Breakfast is not good.
Only instant coffee is available. Lot of flies and mosquitos that
really bother you all the time. Room is not clean. TV has limited
channels. NO hot water provided, unlike what it said hot water available
on the internet. When complainting this to hotel staff, they seems
that they don t care what you said. No apology or sorry ! Just said
yes, no hot water. That s it. No phone nor internet service available
from this hotel. Must go to other hotels to make calls or use internet.
Price is not cheap as compared to nearby hotels. Not worthy staying
in this hotel. |

This was our second stay at this resort, we arrived on the 26th of
December so the hotel was almost fully booked. On our first stay we
thought the hotel was fair for the price (during July). This time
we got a room, where the shower almost didn?t work. The beds were
so soft/worn out that you had to place yourself in the middle of them,
not to fall off. Also the hotel claimed that there were energy savings
so there was no electricity during daytime. The aircon made so much
noice even in shut off position, so we had to switch off all power
to the room to get silence. Also the breakfast is poor, very poor
(Instant coffee, toast, jam, egg and fruit) so after the first meal
we decided to take breakfast outside the hotel. We are traveling with
a small child, and the hotel does not have a babycot. There is a pool,
but it?s not very clean and with the wonderful beach, who uses it?
On the positive note, the hotel put alot of energy into the garden
around the bungalows, and it looks very nice. I would not reccomend
this hotel, it?s not worth the money. |

The hotel is a bit old but our room was newly refurbished. We booked
the cheapest room and it was ok for the money. Small TV with many
channels. The room was clean and towels changed daily. The hotel is
on a very nice and for Koh Samet, large beach. Breakfast was very
poor with few choises and bad quality. We used the pool but it looked
kind of dirty and is small. We took the taxi from the pier, and it
was a bad choise, the road to the hotel is almost gone after the rains
and the hotel has its own boat that take you to and from Ban Phe,
use that one instead of taking the regular ferry. I would recomend
the hotel for a short stay but not for a longer stay, the next beach
is much nicer and secluded. |

I was in Thailand for one month. This hotel was the most expensive
hotel I used this time. I had a deluxe room, the room was just ok,
noting special at all. The breakfast was not very good. The staff
was not service minded at all. I see no smile from anyone at this
hotel. The beach was very nice, allot of people in the daytime. In
the nighttime there was served allot of good seafood on the same beach.
I will not use this hotel again, and I will not recommend this hotel
to anyone. |

Nice hotel. Lovely beach. Pleasant staff BUT, we bought mini bus tickets
to Ko Change from the front desk. Petburapa Tours dropped us off on
the side of the road and put us on a 3rd class bus. There were not
seats available so we had to sit in baggage! Terrible - terrible -
terrible. Would not go back to this hotel due to this experience.
