Stayed here with my family at January 2020. The room with ocean view didn’t have an elevator. Had to go up and down using the stairs At blazing hot weather. Great workout. You can use a mini car to go to the room if any available. Little bit far away from the beach. Other then that the staff was great and friendly. Massages right near the hotel. Street food within few minutes. Breakfast was good. Didn’t have it every day cause had to leave early for excursions so don’t know if it was the same every day. Rooms were clean. Pool was clean and empty most of the time. Lobby was nice. One bottle per person once a day. This hotel is a part of beautiful memories for the rest of our life about the first trip to Thailand ❤️

Loved this resort--room was clean, staff was friendly and very helpful!! Location is great--short walk to Kata Beach and Kata Noir. Pool was nice (unfortunately, some people taking kids in diapers into main pool, not just kiddie pool). Restaurant onsite was great but not too far away was Two Chefs Restaurant--highly recommend. Best price on rides from Bolt (like Uber/Lyft)--concierge recommended and actually set up for us since we didn't have the Bolt app--worked great! All in all a great experience for first time in Thailand--would love to go back!
