Lovely hotel, excellent location

Lovely hotel - the staff are friendly, the restaurant is nice and the location is great! We enjoyed relaxing on the beach front everyday! We stayed in a beach front suite which was lovely, clean and spacious. Perfect location in Khao Lak - close to shops, bars and restaurants.

Die Poolanlagen und die Wasserrutschen waren super! Es gibt auch einen Indoor Spielbereich für die Kleinen, wenn es draussen zu heiss wird.

Perfekter Familienurlaub ohne Sorgen

Pros: Pools Playland Bars Ausflüge
Location: 10 Minuten zu Fuss zum Zentrum Nangthong mit allem was man sich wünscht!
Wir bewohnten ein Familyroom mit Poolacces im neuen Flügel welcher erst etwa ein Monat alt war! Wunderschöne Zimmer, sehr sauber und sehr hübsch eingerichtet. Poolzugang lohnt sich mit Kindern auf jeden Fall! Verwandte von uns hatten ein Zimmer in den älteren Hauptgebäuden welches relativ abgewohnt war. Wahnsinns Frühstücksbuffet, auch extra für Kinder hat es eine Riesenauswahl! Verschiedene Pools, Playland usw. für Kids absolut genial! Wer thailändisches Flair in Hotel oder Zimmer mag ist hier falsch, das Resort könnte überall stehen, sehr Modern aber auch sehr International! Weitläufiges Gelände! Sehr viele Liegestühle, sehr gepflegte Anlage!! Thailändisches Essen im Hotel eher teuer aber absolut spitze. Liessen uns am letzten Abend wegen Erkältung der Kinder verschiedene Thaimenus aufs Zimmer bringen, schneller Service, Essen war heiss und wirklich Spitze! Wir würden sofort wieder gehen!!
