Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests often appreciate the traditional Thai-style bungalows, some offering lovely sea views near the pool. The location is generally considered calm, a bit removed from the center of Chaweng, yet still conveniently accessible. The pool is a highlight, and while the hotel is close to nightlife attractions, some guests have mentioned that the property feels a little dated. Breakfast receives positive comments, with some saying it beats nearby restaurants in quality.

The traditional style bungalows included Thai accessories, like paintings. The staff were also really lovely, I appreciated the warm welcome. The location was at the quieter end of the beach , this meant no jet skis. The pool was also a real treat.
