Stayed in the beachfront cabana room for 4 nights and was surprised at the general state of disrepair in the first room #807. When we walked into the room a wooden dowel from the decorative lattice above the bathtub was sitting in the bathtub itself ( I replaced it myself but thought it odd that they would rent this room... more

Stayed here last week and it could have been perfect. The hotel itself is great looking and just far enough away from the hustle and bustle but near enough for a leisurely walk into town. Here are the problems we encountered though. Staying in a beach cabana, we specifically asked for a twin room. We got a double. Ok ok... more

I will be back ! On arrival we were greeted with a friendly staff and an eagerness to help as we were moving hotels, this didn’t alter for the whole of our holiday. We found the Iyara excellent value. It was in a great location for the Chaweng strip , a short walk to all the bars and restaurants -... more

Very nice hotel, beautiful and big oriental-style room. For my birthday I received a cake from the staff: it was a very nice surprise! Clean pool with elephant shaped fountains and well-equipped beach. Good and romantic restaurant o the beach at night, with blue lights on the bay. The hotel is just in the centre of Chaweng. more

Thought the Iyara offered excellent value and we were very pleased with the Hotel. It was in a great location for the Chaweng strip - not right in the middle but just at the top of it, within easy walking distance of all the bars and restaurants. Room was excellent - nice decor, excellent bathroom and facilities. The view from... more

This hotel is situated amongst a shopping plaza. The rooms all overlook the plaza or the pool. Some have a sea view, most have double doors opening out rather than balcony. The room was really nice, low bed with a lovely bathroom. Best nights sleep we had on our whole trip was here. Serviced daily, great aircon, staff very attentive.... more
