Guests commonly enjoy the spacious garden rooms and find the grounds well-maintained, featuring multiple pools.

underwhelming stay despite nice location

unhappy staff limited breakfast
the location was quite central, which allowed easy access to the town and beach.
The service fell short of expectations for the price. the staff seemed generally unhappy, a stark contrast to typical thai hospitality. the breakfast buffet lacked variety and the food quality didn't match the hotel's supposed standard. The thai options were particularly limited and repetitive.

The security personnel acted rudely. I would avoid returning because of this issue! The staff was barking louder at customers than the stray dogs. This kind of behavior is unacceptable in a hotel. The hotel should properly train their staff.
