I loved the location right on the beach (it was perfect for morning swims). the room was very clean upon arrival. i appreciated the lively atmosphere each night, especially the pool parties. They created a fun and energetic vibe.
the music at night, while fun, sometimes made it a little difficult to fall asleep early.

The location is superb. I found convenient parking for both motorcycles and cars. The hotel has a restaurant, beach club with a pool, and the iconic ark with music and a DJ!!!
There was no phone in my room. I had to walk to the front desk each time I needed something. It was not a short walk. Instead of key cards, I received a key attached to a long plastic block.

The fire show each night on the beach was amazing to see. it was such fun. the bed was comfy. I almost took it home. the pool and the beach are right outside the hotel gate, i really loved it.
The hotel didn't have a phone in the room. It meant walking to the front desk, if i needed anything, and that's not a short walk at all!

Staying at this hotel was a great experience. The location is central, and I found the hotel well-situated near Chaweng's key attractions. My room was clean, and I appreciated its modern design elements. The nightly fire shows on the beach added a unique touch to my stay.
