We loved it so much here we stayed twice on 2 different occasions on our trip to Thailand. It was a great discovery and excellent hotel - modern , tastefully decorated with lots of cool airy spaces to explore. Ideally located right on the beach, felt very safe, beautiful grounds and a selection of swimming pools - all clean and well maintained, never busy and lot of good spaces for children with a mini water park in one. The staff here were lovely and nothing was too much trouble. We had a problem with our room and it was dealt with immediately and we were moved to a different one. I noted a previous comment about smoking and we notified receptionist about someone smoking on the patio next to us. People obviously find it hard to follow the rules about non smoking rooms. Delicious breakfast with masses of choices and lots of theme nights in their restaurants. Loads of effort goes into entertaining guests without it being too much- they had a lovely beach featival one evenjng with food stalls in the grounds, a fire show and a activities for both children and adults - nobe of this is pushed on guests. Towels provided for the pool and beach sun-beds. And yes people reserve their bed chairs by the pool but by mid afternoon most have had enough of the heat. Poole side rooms have their own patios and chairs so this solves that problem. It didn't feel crowded at any time and there is so much space and greenery its a lovely place to relax. One pool does look directly over the next door hotel and all their air conditioning units which is a bit ugly but not a big deal. Stunning sunsets to be enjoyed from the pool and beach and also from a bar above the restaurant which we only discovered by chance. Lovely cocktails and happy hour from 5-6pm every day. The rooms are spacious and well equipped - they are not brilliantly insulated so you can hear noises from other rooms at times but its not a loud noisy place and all their air conditioning bars shut at 11pm so its not likely to attract lots of people who want a lively and late nightlife would definitely recommend for couples and families, sylish, modern and the gardens and beach are beautiful. excellent breakfast and lovely staff
