The hotel has become very good after the restoration. A very tasty and varied breakfast, worthy of 5*. A cool children's room by the pool. The pools are large, but shallow, clean, and illuminated. The guards don't kick you out at night-swim at least all night, which everyone is happy to do. The rooms are large and nice. There is a dining table in the room, a refrigerator, a capsule coffee machine. Capsules are replenished every day. There are rooms with their own party by the pool-just great!
The territory is huge, lots of lawns, its own deck chairs near the beach. There is a good gym, yoga on the lawn, activities on the beach. The sea is good, Bangtao beach. There are many cafes on the beach. It takes 5 minutes to get to the village or by tuk-tuk 100 baht-they are located near the reception or on the beach 5 minutes on foot to the Dalar Hotel. There are many massage parlors, cafes, shops. There is a good grocery store, alcohol, fruit stand, and several good cafes at the exit of the hotel. There are tall trees on the beach for shade until lunch, you can just chill on a towel in the sand. The beach bar is a decent nightclub.
Everything is great, but there was one drawback. There was a whiff of smoke in the room from the air conditioner. They couldn't fix it, although they contacted us several times. They didn't want to move, they actually lived without air conditioning.
I recommend the hotel
We had a family vacation at the end of October. The hotel is wonderful. Large well-maintained territory. Wi-Fi is available throughout the hotel. Breakfast is standard: juices, eggs in all kinds, their national soups, sausages, bacon, porridge, yoghurts, pastries. The rooms are standard, the air conditioning worked well, cleaning is daily, the room has everything you need (even an umbrella, a flashlight and a fumigator). The pools are clean. There are plenty of sun loungers on the beach and by the pool. By the end of our vacation, we even added a number of sun loungers on the beach due to the increase in vacationers. Beach towels are provided. The beach (the area where the sunbeds are) is cleaned daily, and the beach area by the sea is not always clean, especially after a storm, the sea is not completely clean (they say this is because of the river that flows into the sea not far from the hotel) . There is a small animation of archery and football. There is also a children's room and a children's pool on site (we did not visit them). Near the hotel there are several cafes, snack bars, an exchange and a Tops store (where everything can be purchased). The rest of the "movers" can be reached by tuk-tuk, or on foot in 20-25 minutes. I recommend the hotel!
