Relaxing breathtaking experience
Pros:

It was truly one of the best experiences I had in Thailand. Surprisingly the best thing about this resort was not only the breathtaking nature, the amenities or the food - it was the staff. They were so kind and answered every request with a smile. They made sure I had the best vacation. And it was. Thank you.

Cons:

I can’t think of anything that I didn’t like. The beach at the bottom is not the best for swimming but you can take a taxi 5 min away for 3€.

Pros:

Wunderschöne Lage zwischen Bergen und Meer. Haben bei Ankunft sofort ein doppeltes Upgrade umsonst bekommen. Super freundliches Personal. Alles sauber. Kostenloses shuttle in die Stadt.

Cons:

Die Schuttlezeiten sind etwas unpraktisch. Es wäre super, wenn eines noch auf ca. 18uhr fahren würde. Und auch auf ca. 22uhr wieder zurück.
