The entire island is well over capacity and it really shows, even at 'out of the way' places like Viking. Toilet couldn't handle what little use it got and we were barely in the room. Terrible smell all around the bungalows from sewage. Poor cleaning service and unfriendly staff. We picked because it was said to be one of the... More

If you want a "back to nature" feel then the location is perfect, you truly are nestled in the trees (we stayed in C2), yet an easy 20min walk from Tonsai. The bungalows are simply beautiful, spacious bathrooms, well appointed and uniquely decorated. The shared bathrooms offered, for bungalows without their own, were very clean and spacious. As for all... More

I have mixed feelings about our stay at Viking Natures Resort - probably because I was expecting it to be so much better than it ended up being. Overall we had a great stay but there is definitely room for improvement. I originally booked a deluxe bungalow online (confirmation and all) but when we checked in were told this was... More

This resort is strange, a great concept let down by crap staff and a lack of attention to detail. We booked 2 makmai's (7&8). On arrival, we are told nr 7 isn't available and they bump one couple to a desolate C2 - which was downright dirty. They still expected us to pay for the makmai 7 for the night... More

A group of us stayed at the Viking Resort over Peak period in December 2010. We stayed in one of the cheaper options. (A standard room) We loved the dining area - try the Massaman Curry - its so reasonably priced and probably the best Massaman I've ever had. The staff are chilled and everything is laid back - they... More

I'm writing from the hall of this hotel. When we came we liked this place. But the staff is so awful. We haven't got the light in our house, but nobody repair it. I told many times. When we check out they wanted us to pay more money. It was their mistake, but they didn't excuse. The waitors are too... More

Tripadvisor currently has separate reviews of Viking Nature Resort and Viking Palace Resort, but they are one and the same. When booking your stay, don't book using their website as the prices are higher than what you will get by phone and presumably by email. Also, sometime prior to arrival tell them when your ferry will arrive and they will... More

I stayed at the Viking Resort for 3 nights in October 2011. Rooms are decent - maybe a bit small and the bathroom was a bit rough, but it didn't really bother me. Every room has a very nice balcony with a hammock which is great. I saw on TripAdvisor that some of the reviews complained about the staff being... More

I just came back from my 4 nights stay at Viking Natures Resort, they are probably the most exciting 4 nights in 2011 for me. I spent few days in Bangkok and Pattaya before I took off to Ko Phi Phi so I was kinda adapted to city life and wasn't really ready for such back-to-basic experience. I read about... More
