Outstanding
YYudi LesmanaSmall and very private property, very fast and efficient check-in with welcome drink and snack. The pool villa is spacious with a nice pool terrace to chill and spend time. The place is very clean and well maintained. Breakfast by the pool is great too with generous portion.
LLEO NG 1388First of all, this is a private pool villa. The operation is a little different from that of a hotel. You can call them when you go to the door or when you arrive on the island to prepare. A certain level of English communication skills is required here, so please use your own discretion. The location is right at Tawean Beach, which has the most activities and is the most popular. It is really good. After playing in the water, you can go back to take a shower and change clothes. It is also very convenient to go back to the room to get your equipment if you forget it. The location shown on Google Maps is actually accurate. There is an alley next to the beach and you just need to walk in. For breakfast, the staff will ask you when you would like to have your meal tomorrow morning and then deliver it to your private pool. It tastes good and the portion is quite sufficient.
CCoco daniThe hotel is very clean and hygienic. The manager was very kind and answered my questions with sincerity. The restaurant and the place he recommended were also very good. The breakfast of the hotel was clean and nice. I achieved both relaxation and healing. I live in Pattaya, so I would like to make a reservation again when I visit again
РРоманКWe read the reviews, arrived, and were not impressed.
Here are the issues you can expect:
1. **Sewer smell in the room.** It genuinely STANK. The bathroom has a very powerful fan that's always on when the light is. This seems to draw odors up from the sewer traps. Dear owners of this establishment: your traps need working water seals to prevent sewer gases from entering the building. Don't just put out air fresheners; fix your plumbing. It smells like sewage.
2. **Huge windows facing the road and parking lot.** From early morning until late evening, you'll have crowds of people and dozens of motorbikes just three meters from your window. This leads to the third drawback.
3. **Not a cozy, secluded beach.** This is a small beach with a huge number of people. There's no coziness here whatsoever.
4. **Too many dogs.** We counted 12, and they aren't even kept out of the restaurant area. I like dogs and am used to a certain number of them on Koh Lanta's beaches, but here there are simply too many, and they'll surround you right in the restaurant. Easily 4-5 of them will get under your table.
5. **Active construction right outside the door.** Drilling and sawing from morning till night. This might not affect you, but just be aware that it could happen. Your peace and quiet, which you paid good money for, will not be respected.
On the positive side:
1. **New, spacious, and modern room finishes.**
2. **Clean beach water.** Well, this is true for all beaches on this island, except the one near the main pier.
3. **The hotel isn't completely isolated.** There are decent cafes a five-minute walk away.
SSakuramodThe property is centrally located on the island. Motorbikes are available for rent at 300 THB, though the one we received seemed to have been in a prior accident, making it difficult to ride as it constantly pulled to the left. The location is convenient, with restaurants within walking distance, and a shuttle service is also provided.
The bedroom and bathroom were clean, but the bathroom did have a slight drain odor. The room itself had no offensive smell, but wasn't particularly fresh-smelling either. The bathroom floor was quite slippery, so caution was needed when walking. The wall-mounted shower had very weak water pressure; a standard shower head would be a significant improvement. Interestingly, the water pressure at the sink and from the bidet sprayer was strong.
The room lighting was rather dim and yellowish. The TV was unusable due to intermittent signal (this was in our family room).
Breakfast included congee, bread, coffee, and Ovaltine.
DDouglas Mc DougallNice location near the pier, although you need to wind between some alleyways.
The view, as shown in the website photos, is not quite what you get.
Lovely breakfast, made to order.
Room and bathroom are both clean and comfortable.
Scooters are available for hire at the premises.
AAlex MakePuzzleIt was our second time at this hotel, and it’s absolutely great for an island trip. Short walk from a pier, from 7/11, from songthaew stop. We will come again soon, no doubts.
BTW there is a cute little cat (she’s pregnant now), so don’t forget to buy some food for her ;)
GGuest UserThe hotel checked us in on time and doesn't allow early check in. this is alright and we understand. The motorbike rental with the hotel is cheaper than what shops offer at the Pier. I was able to rent for 300 baht while the offer at the pier was from 400 to 500 baht.
GGuest UserThis camping-style accommodation is right by Tawaen Beach, close to Tawaen Pier. It's super convenient with a 7-Eleven right next door. The place is cute and the staff provides great service.
GGuest UserWe stayed here for 11 days, during this time the room was cleaned twice, when the water/toilet paper/coffee ran out we had to beg the owner. The hotel is 2.5 km from Monkey Beach, 700 meters from Bali Hai Pier, there are many cafes/shops nearby. You can ask the owner for a bike (300) and a taxi (100). At night the music from the cafes is blaring, everything would be fine, but the singers are tone-deaf. It's nice to sit outside, but there are a lot of flies, ants and mosquitoes.
The garden is beautiful in autumn,
