8.5Verified guest“Free parking on-site was handy, and the reception staff were wonderful. The room was really special and beautiful, and breakfast was delicious with a good choice of decent food.”
8.5Verified guest“Breakfast was nice with a wide range of options. The beds were soft, and the villa itself was tidy and exceptional.”
8.5Verified guest“The Villa with Plunge Pool was spacious and comfortable. The beach access was fantastic, and the sunsets every evening were great. Breakfast had a nice variety, with fresh fruits and pastries that made each morning special. I particularly loved lounging by the pool with a sea view – refreshing and calm.”
8.5Verified guest“Parts of the resort were nice, but during our stay 70% of the facilities and rooms were under repair. The food isn't great, the service was non-existent, and the staff didn't seem to understand customer service. I'm easygoing and travel frequently, but this resort leaves a lot to be desired. For the price, the state of the facilities, food, and service, there are better resorts on Koh Lanta. I would not recommend this resort for an extended stay of more than a day. Unfortunately, I won't be recommending it to friends or family.”
8.5Verified guest“Stunning location with parking outside. It's also next to restaurants and bars.”
8.5Verified guest“The beachfront vibes were perfect, and I lounged on the sun-loungers all day. The massages by the beach were only $15 and totally relaxing. Nothing compares while listening to the waves.”
