Perfect choice for our first trip to Thailand. We stayed in the new wing, building 7 which we were moved to after a request. Definitely recommend these rooms as they are a lot nicer than the other buildings. The pool with the swim up bar is quiet and relaxing (no kids). But if you're after making friends with other guests... More

We stayed here over Christmas and new year. I cannot fault the hotel or staff. Its located right on the beach although the pool area is so luxurious we stayed there. Drinks and warm clean towels brought to you when you get out of the pool and staff eager to please. The banquets were fantastic and the entertainment first class.... More

Just returned from 14 days at this resort. Had a pool access room which was great. Clean, quite etc. housekeeping staff wonderful. That's where the service stops! Staff over all don't speak English and don't try to help. Breakfast very ordinary. Every third day we had extra options??? Wouldn't stay there again. I,m sure there are friendlier places.

This was our first time in Thailand and I had the hotel recommended to me by my sister. The hotel is in a fantastic location, directly over the road from the beach and close to everything without being in the midlle of the more "boisterous" area of Patong. The pools and grounds are gorgeous and the rooms are very nice,... More

Have stayed here innumerable times with family and friends. Our inly disappoint was on our last stay. The hotel reservation staff chose to ignore my requests for a particular room and location. They also refused to our room once we arrived and objected to the room we had been allocated. However the hotel has 4 large swimming pools, is in... More
