Great option for this area
Pros:

I don’t understand people who is complaining for this hotel. This whole area is super wild and it is really one of the best options there. The only reason you come here is whale shark swimming for 1/2 nights. The pier is 1 min away, rooms are very clean, bed is good, good smell in the room, fresh bedding. Restaurant in the hotel is also good options. You need to understand that this whole area is pretty wild and don’t expect anything luxury. But the stuff of the hotel makes everything for comfort stay for this purposes

Cons:

Don’t put so much water in fresh juices) and waiting for food is very long but it is more for the cafe than hotel. Hotel was much more better than I’ve expected

Un bell' hotel gestito male
Pros:

La posizione, le dimensioni e la pulizia della camera

Cons:

Lo staff non riesce a comunicare in inglese e all' arrivo non volevano darci la camera, già pagata, perché incapaci di vedere nel sistema l' avvenuto pagamento.
La barca dell' escursione verso il whalesharks point era scomoda e disagevole e il motore emanava gas di scarico insopportabili per chi era a bordo
