Ik heb genoten van mijn verblijf. De prijs was oke, maar ik zou niet nog een keer boeken.
Pros:

De locatie. Mooi aan het strand zit het hotel en diverse restaurants in de buurt.

Cons:

Het ontbijt kan iets uitgebreider. Ze hebben wel warme gerechten. Vond niet echt 5sterren waardig het ontbijt. Je kon gratis kajakken, maar dat hebben we niet gedaan. De kajakken waren niet in goede staat.

Pros:

The accommodations here are quite nice. Unfortunately, the vacation period is limited. Next time, I’ll come back and stay for a few more days. The breakfast here is very rich, and it’s very comfortable to be able to see a clean beach and the ocean right outside the door.

Pros:

Heel mooi hotel gelegen in een aangename buurt. Verschillende winkeltjes en restaurants in de nabije omgeving. Het ontbijt was eerder beperkt maar iedereen had wel iets wat hij lekker vond. De kamer met toegang tot het zwembad was tof, het water in het zwembad was wel warm. Er waren renovatiewerken bezig in de andere gebouwen maar dit heeft ons niet gestoord. Het Thais eten in het restaurant was heel lekker. Personeel allemaal heel erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Aangezien het laagseizoen was moesten we een beetje zoeken voor een uitstap. Je merkt dat er veel gesloten is. We huurden een scooter en reden het eiland rond. Wat een prachtige natuur overal, je raakt er niet op uitgekeken. Ook een boottocht naar Koh Hong bezorgde ons een onvergetelijke dag! Bedankt voor deze mooie eiland ervaring!!

Pros:

Personal amable y servicial. És lo unico positivo que podemos indicar. Teniamos 3 noches reservadas y solo estuvimos una noche, no nos gustó nada.

Cons:

Baño muy pequeño, no había ni una estantería para dejar nada, además no había iluminación. Desayuno muy muy pobre. No se corresponde a un hotel 5 estrellas y casi ni de 4. Camas muy duras, muy incomodo.
