This property was very nice. Rooms were spacious and beds were comfortable. We had a garden view suite and were able to walk right out to the pool. Staff at reception were good and maintenance staff fixed our hall light which wasn't working when we checked in due to electrical issues. Our only issue was the housekeeping staff which gave inconsistent service. One day they didn't come at all and we had to phone the front desk at 5:00 and ask if we could get more water as the hotel supplies 2 bottles per day. Also towels were sometimes stained which didn't mean they weren't clean but still for an upscale place this should not happen. Pool towels were often stained as well.

Stayed for 9 nights with our children aged 6 and 9. They loved the swimming pools which were well maintained. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was very good, catering for a wide range of nationalities. Our room was cleaned to a high standard every day.

As I understand the hotel will be refurbished in a year or two so that tells you about the state of the hotel for now. Maintenance was average any fittings or fixtures loose can ask for housekeeping. Air con is a bit noisy at night. Pools could be better condition especially the quiet pool. During check out staff were much more hospitable and helpful. That's a good impression for guests leaving. Pls do the same too when guests arriving :)

The cleaning staff for the rooms were excellent (Pancake). The Rooms were not well maintained (doors on the cupboards that would not work, draws that were not working) - fixed after a couple hours. Garden beds that were not weeded (fixed second day). Pool that was green and slimy and dangerous to swim in never fixed. Hotel agreed to check out now and full refund as they could not get maintained staff to fix after 5 days. So Ms Nancy (on site manager) did try to work it out.

Great stay
Came with my brother and my aunt and her friend. We loved our stay. This resort is very affordable but the property is excellent — three pools, a pool bar, and a restaurant on premise, the staff were very helpful and friendly, the rooms were clean, spacious, and we had a balcony overlooking the pool. Would 100% stay here again.

As much as this resort is a beautiful hotel with a best in class atmosphere, it would be a facade if not for the outstanding staff. The staff we encountered, in particular the towel lady at the bar pool , the pool bar staff, the security staff, our room cleaning ladies and of course the very nice man at the front taxi/van entrance who always greeted us with warm friendly conversation and assistance, takes customer service to a level above expectations. We will most certainly stay here again given the chance. J wood

As a person who is blind. The staff here made my stay amazing! From the accommodations and assistance, to the three pools to choose from, water slide, breakfast buffet, gym, and being a ten minute walk from Kata beach. This place was absolutely amazing and I highly recommend for anyone from single person traveler's to whole families to come stay. Some friends stayed at a hotel on the beach and it wasn't nearly as nice as this one.

Fabulous hotel!
We have travelled to Thailand many times and stayed at many hotels, but honestly, this must rate as one of the most amazing stays ever. Although the rooms are a little dated, the facilities are beautiful, the food outstanding and the staff friendly and efficient. The hotel caters wonderfully for young children. The location is excellent with lovely restaurants close by and the beach just a short walk away.

What a wonderful resort and oasis from the bustling Kata Beach area. We absolutely loved this resort, from the pools to the warm and helpful staff to the incredible breakfast buffets! The rooms are spacious, lovely and quiet if you do not stay in a poolside room on the Emerald Pool. We did not stay poolside there but at the Elephant pool which was quiet. Emerald Pool has a lot of activity with families and music blaring on the speakers, which is a fun place to hang but if you are looking for a quiet afternoon nap or something, I would recommend not booking those rooms. The grounds of this resort are exceptional and so lush. The walk to the beach (there is a one-way drop off shuttle courtesy of the hotel) is not too much, you get to stroll past restaurants and shops along the way and people watch. Highly recommend this resort!
