The hotel is nice, beautifull bungalows just 2 kilometer away from the busy white beach. Problem with the hotel is the staff. Our booking got lost (agoda's mistake offcourse, not the hotel). First night perfect, but we had to swap rooms. Second night we were put in a totally different room outside the resort. Ugly sheets and a dirty bathroom... More

I'll tell a little story: I love bananshakes. Day one: do you have bananashake? They're on the ment. No... Day two: banana shake? No have. Day three: I bought bananas and yoghurt, please could you make bananashake? After much debate: Yes! I check out, they bill me for the shakes! It's a clean place, but too expensive.

A discret resort and definitely a great place to stay ! Excellent management, comprehensive team, great service and food, good lounge with WiFi. Having forgotten my laundry at departure, everything was mailed to bangkok... "Bravo" I recommend that place... :-) even if many tourists already know it....

Located on Pearl Beach, but note there isn't a sandy beach. The pool facing the ocean makes up for not being able to soak in the sea. Plenty of lounge chairs by the pool and beach. 500B refundable deposit needs to be placed for the room key. Short walking distance to the highly-rated Saffron on the Sea for some good... More

The location is pretty good. Convenient to rent a scooter from the hotel for 200 b/day. We had a nice view of the ocean from our room. Can't swim here though. When we showed up for breakfast the first morning a little before 9am, they had run out of everything except for some bread and watermelon with flies on it.... More

Rooms were nice but very close together. The restaurant had good food but the free breakfast buffet was as other reviews mentioned....HORRIBLE! Beautiful pool (always full of loud children) located steps away from a rock (not sand) beach. Owner & staff very friendly & accomodating. Resort location was somewhat out of the way away from the main road.

This is a really nice small 'resort' (really a hotel, not a resort), a few km's from White Sands. It's right on the beach which is rocky but perfectly good for swimming. Rooms are well-appointed, there's a pleasant small-ish swimming pool and a restaurant with a wide menu, mostly Thai. I found the staff very friendly but English was limited... More

Took a superior room for 1500 baht. Quite nice inside, clean, good shower. Breakfast is included but it is not that good, just ok. Pool view is lovely, very relaxing, no hassle, nice place to chill out and have a beer. Several people have commented about the location and the lack of beach but I have a bike so it... More

This place is a joke, really. I am an easy going independent traveller that is quite easy to please, but this place sucks. It is far way from white sands area, so getting around is not easy, you have to walk in the dark with no lighting to the main road to try and find a taxi, not safe for... More

This guest stayed for 1 night and asked for several services what we can't offer for the room rate what we offered him (990 Baht for a luxury bungalow, he even said in his complaints that the room was reasonable for the rate) For example we don't offer a beverage service direct on the pool,of course, you can order it...

I stayed here couple of nights. It is an okay place if you are looking for a not too expensive place. But you get what you paid for – the basic of amenities. Rooms are clean, restaurant is doable. It is on the ocean front but shore has huge pointy pebbles and rocks so there is nothing you can do... More
