Cadre idyllique, bon rapport qualité prix 🏆
Les casiers à rénover pour les dortoirs et les lits un peu durs, mais ça va !

Die Lage war absolut super: in Reichweite von 5 Gehninuten hat man einen Supermarkt und einige tolle Cafés. Um an andere Strände zu kommen empfiehlt sich ein Roller. Tauchen kann man mit der Hotel-eigenen Tauchschule sehr gut. Haben hier unsere Tauchscheine gemacht und hatten viel Spaß. Diese sind zwar minimal teurer als außerhalb, aber man weiß was man bekommt: tolle und qualifizierte Lehrer und einen Lehrplan nach individuellem Tempo.
Ein wenig hellhörig.

Het was een zeer schone kamer met fijn beddengoed, een nieuwe douche, vriendelijk personeel. Allemaal keurig verzorgd.
Het restaurant was ook erg goed en laag geprijsd.
Van elk drankje werd een waar kunstwerkje gemaakt.
De mensen zijn allemaal erg gastvrij en ze brachten ons ook nog naar ons volgend hotel.
De kamer was een beetje aan de kleine kant,maar dat was ook alles.

Situación
El hotel también es un centro de buceo, reservamos una iniciación de buceo y nos llevaron a un sitio con mala mar y muy mala visibilidad. Nos negamos a hacerlo ya que era peligroso y poco serio. Nos cobraron igual.
5.0 / 5.0
Lovely location, just off the main road away from the noise.
Really cute little set up of bungalows that lead to the sea and some lovely areas with bean bags and over the water hammocks to relax, I spent a whole day there just chilling and it was perfect after 3 full on days of diving. The beach isn’t really a beach as the tide is high in the day, but you can still enjoy the sea.
The rooms are simple but have what you need, i loved the little outside sitting area on the bungalow veranda, a nice little spot to cool down, read a book and listen to the birds.
It is close to shark bay and view point i walked and it took about 12mins, some steep inclines but the viewpoint is worth it.
Lovely helpful staff from picking me up from my dive accommodation, to checking in early to helping me book my ferry ticket on possibly the busiest day (full moon), they could
not get me a ticket at the resort, so took me to the main office at the pier where i was able to buy the last ticket to catch my flight.
on my last day i missed the shuttle into town for my ferry and i was taken in the golf cart in the pouring rain, very grateful for the lift.
There is an amazing little cafe place called Big Bite on the corner as you turn off the main road, lovely spot for breakfast, i
had the smoothie bowl and avocado on toast it was amazing and great coffee, see pic
The air con was not very powerful and kept going off, minor issue.

Die Lage und die Anlage an sich haben uns gut gefallen: Es ist ruhig, es gibt jedoch gleich in der Nähe einen Strand, Restaurants, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, Rollerverleih, Geldwechselstelle, Supermarkt, ….
Die Betten sind sauber und bequem. Es ist alles da, was man braucht. Die Bungalows sind hübsch. Man bekommt jeden Tag frisches Trinkwasser.
Taucher erhalten alles, was sie brauchen im Resort. Schnorcheln muss man selbst organisieren, ist aber kein Problem, da hilft auch das Resort gleich neben an.
Es gibt einen kostenfreien Abhol- und Bringeservice zur Fähre. Allerdings ist der bei der Abreise nicht zuverlässig, obwohl wir erfahrungsgemäß mehrfach den Service für unsere Abreise bestellt hatten und das auch bestätigt wurde, hat man uns morgens vergessen und wir haben nur knapp die Fähre verpasst, wir konnten noch jemanden ansprechen, der den Fahrer erinnerte.
Wir würden wieder kommen.
Es gibt keinen zuverlässigen Service, auch wenn das Personal sehr freundlich und bemüht ist
Wir mussten drei Mal den Auftrag erteilen, dass das Licht im Badezimmer nicht funktioniert - jedes Mal kam jemand, der sich das extra angesehen hat aber es passierte nichts.
Wir mussten etwa 45 min auf unserer Cocktails warten. Einer von uns bekam seinen und dann ging nicht mehr weiter. Später hat sich herausgestellt, dass das Eis fehlte. Das wird allerdings nicht kommuniziert.
In den Badezimmern unserer Unterkünfte waren die Silikonfugen verschimmelt.

Love it! Everything! Booked a dorm but got an upgrade to a bungalow. The whole complex was beautiful and clean. Beachfront with nice beanbags and hammock. Ate at the restaurant once and it was so good! Did Discover scuba diving at their diving Centre and it was the best time I’ve ever had. They’re all such nice people. Loved it here

Le jardin et la mer proche. Le fait qu on vienne nous chercher au port.
Les matelas bruyant. On m a donné un lit qui avait déjà été donné. L accessibilité à la plage très difficile. Il y a toujours des plongeurs en bouteille qui s entraînent dans la piscine.

This is a very beautiful place to stay. The design of the bungalows is very aesthetic, and the outside area, pool etc is taken care of. Very clean. Helpful staff. Amazing view from the front restaurant.
I stayed in the shared room and the bed was very uncomfortable. I stayed only one night even though I booked two - the staff was very helpful about it. The reason was that I didn't want to stay in a shared place. As a solo traveller, I could not afford to stay in one of the bungalows but they looked really great.

The grounds of this resort are beautiful. The restaurant serves excellent food and the views from the restaurant are wonderful. There was a nice breeze in the evenings during our stay. The dive center was very professional and everybody was very welcoming. We felt we were in good hands. There are nice bungalows situated in a garden setting and also a few dorm rooms which makes for a great mix of people. Our room was newly updated and the robes were a very nice and unexpected touch. Lots of restaurants and coffee shops close by, and yet, we found ourselves quite often at the resort restaurant, because it was so chill.
Our room was a little less expensive than the bungalows but sadly overlooked the parking lot.

Lovely communal area on the beach front.
The location was good. You could take a short moped ride to anywhere you wanted to visit on the island.
The accommodation didn't feel luxurious - it felt basic and had a caravan vibe. Given the expensive price I was expecting more from the accommodation.
We decided to move to another hotel after a couple of days for the same price but had better accommodation.
We didn't dive with them.
4.0 / 5.0
On a charming beach. Close enough to everything on the island (which can be explored easily by renting a scooter just outside the resort). Incredible and super well maintained common space - garden, swimming pool, beachfront area, restaurant. In front of the beach, with lots of nature. All amazing staff, very welcoming, professional and kind! Silent bungalow, comfy bed and nice wifi and AC.
the bungalow was comfortable and ideally sized however it needs of some improvements: no hooks or holders for towels and clothes; there is no division between the shower and the toilet; there is a very bad smell from the toilet that sometimes returns waste from third parties; the key did not lock the bungalow.

Good diving school. Comfortable beach front area with restaurant and cozy places for relaxing.
The building with our room was a bit outside of the resort, not directly Integrated.

Lovely pool and amazing seating area which looks over the beach. Perfect hotel for people looking to dive. Close to a look out point if you like hiking.
Wasn't many restaurants and shops near by would recommend renting a bike.
3.5 / 5.0
The location is very nice, just next to Chalok bay, and you can walk down to Freedom beach from there as well (15-20 min walk). The resort is very well taken care of, cute, and there are some nice tables and puffs to seat next to the water. The 4-shared room is Ok, nothing fancy but Ok. The annoying part is that the toilet floor is always wet after someone takes a shower, but that happens in many toilets around SEA (it's how they are designed). The one nice thing is the balcony in front of the room. The location and external facilities make it worth the stay in the shared rooms if you're on a tight budget. You can watch spectacular sunsets just from the front of the resort, aprox. 50m from the dorms!

2.5 / 5.0
location was fine. rented a bike it was 10 mins drive to most things on the island
bathroom smelled absolutely rancid, water also smelled terrible. tried to contact the staff about this but were unable to find english speaking staff.
additionally there were ants EVERYWHERE in the bedroom and bathroom!
staff we interacted with were passive and had quite negative attitudes
bedsheets were not changed in 5 nights of staying and pillows had mould on them
pool was always in use by divers ended up using the pool next door (not sure if allowed but absolutely lovely) would have rather of stayed there at fisherman’s - the vibe was so much nicer.
4.5 / 5.0
loved the shower, and interior design—clean and modern with bright colors. loved the beach front lounge area, it’s the nicest on the entire beach. the staff were helpful and efficient, and the pool area was nice as well.
the building where I stayed was like a condominium about 20 meters away from rear of the bungalow area, so about a 2 min walk to the beach, which felt kinda far, like I wasn’t really staying by the beach and I didn’t find it so proximal that I was wanting to go enjoy the lounge area. the staff didn’t bring me water everyday so I had to grab some when they were around and cleaning rooms.

3.5 / 5.0
The door was clean and the bathroom really nice.
They have a really cool area to have a drink in front of the sea.
They have a free shuttle waiting for you when you land on the island. Even though the hotel isn’t far by car (6min) from town, be aware there are not many taxi and they charge you a lot of money to drop you off at the hotel. They can call the shuttle for you for 100 bath, much cheaper than other taxis.
The place was really noisy. Each time a room would use shower, we would hear some noise. This is due to the counter located outside.
The staff wasn’t really friendly.
They have a restaurant at the hotel and pretended we couldn’t pay by card until we realized you actually can request to pay by card at the reception for your bill.
