Surin Park is nestled on a picturesque hillside a few minutes walk from Surin beach and Bangtao Bay. Upon arrival we were greeted with cool towels and water and an early check in at 9am was not a problem at all, in fact we were taken to our gorgeous 2 bedroom apartment within minutes!! The building is pretty much brand new and the apartments are spacious, have amazingly comfortable beds and the softest pillows i have ever slept on!! Such a change from the hard beds and massive pillows most high end accomodation use. I got home and all of a sudden my bed that was once great is now just average. I want one of those pillows!!! Internet connection was fast and free for use in their restaurant or a small charge in room! The home theater system was great for entertaining the whole family and the extra TV in main bedroom was great for quiet nights. Kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could need though we didn't cook anything except for snacks as their kitchen was absolutely amazing. We ate at many restaurants around Surin and Phuket but nothing compared to the quality, quantity and affordability of the food served by their restaurant. Try their morning glory with spicy thai salad, Susanne recommended and it didn't disappoint! They also were very generous in bringing our food to our room for us most nights as i was feeling unwell and wanted the comfort of eating alone with my family. The other option was to dine in their restaurant with wonderful views and service by our favourite waiter Hom. The condominiums are run by a European/Thai family who speak both English and Thai (among other languages) making communication a breeze!! Susanne and Ron were so helpful and as it was my first visit to Thailand, they didn't hesitate to answer my million questions!! Sorry if i annoyed you guys!! I was also sick during my stay unfortunately and Susanne and her mother personally took me to the hospital for treatment, they were so caring and lovely! Susan also organised most of our day trips with a local driver called Thum who we also came to love at very reasonable prices and even got discounts for us on outside tours, thanks so much!! My son loved the swimming pool, he swam every day and the spa was a perfect height for him to stand on his own. Surin Park is a great place for all kinds of travellers but the value, luxury and service are the 3 things that will bring me back!! One last thing, the Chantelay markets were spectacular, Mon and Thurs at the nearby Tesco shopping centre, great bargains and amazing food!! You must try!
