Reviews
2. The Internet is very poor and gets disconnected frequently.
3. You cannot charge your devices when you aren't in the room. When you leave the room and take the key with you, all AC sockets and the aircon are shut down, so when you come back you find your room hot and the devices not charged.
4. The hotel does not have any sunbeds on the beach. They have a cafe next to the beach but in order to sit there you have to spend a high amount on their very high prices.
5. The pool has multiple sections, but the deepest one is 1.2 meters deep, which makes it not very suitable for adults.
Beach needs to be cleaned in front of the hotel .
The public relations person on Google reviews has simply left a standard response to my review . Same responses to everyone’s reviews which is sad. Instead of looking for us to discuss while we are still here.
This hotel is ok for kids and young families. If you are looking for a more upmarket, mature hotel this one is not for you.
Someone who has stayed in many different accommodations from home stays to 6-7 star hotels over the past 25 years, this resort is hands down a family friendly resort.
We met Marin on our first day who had showed us around the resort before we decided to book our accommodation and immediately we were in love with the place.
Marin has gone beyond and above to ensure our stay here was safe, comfortable and that our family was happy. We stayed here for 8 nights, ground floor with access to private pool. We were a family of 5 adults, a teenager and a 11 months old baby.
We used majority of the facilities service, from eating at their intercontinental breakfast which had a wide selection of food, dining at the beach club restaurant, happy hour by the beach to watch the sunset to drinking our espresso at the Starbucks cafe.
We spent time in the kids club which helped so much to ensure my little one not only spent time by the pool but also she had her time to attend to fun activities and meet other young babies.
Food variety was available for kids which was a plus.
On-site they had a sufficient entertaining rooms, drinks by the pool, and access to Bangtao Beach. The resort structure plan was beautifully designed to make it look natural. Details went into the interior design of the resort.
We were came during the monsoon season, however we’ve been lucky to have had good weather 95% of the time and when it did rain atleast there were things to do on the resort.
The hotel location wasn’t in an isolated area, a few pharmacy’s, a 7 eleven store down the street and many other restaurants. There was a Muay Thai gym down the street to watch people train or come and train yourself.
Would we stay here again? A definite Yes.
We thank the staff at the resort for making us feel welcome and who have helped ensure our stay was comfortable, safe and friendly.
We hope to come back soon!
Rooms a bit dated but all working fine. We didn’t have a pool view but enjoyed wildlife in the field outside! Would recommend!
My room was infested with flies and mosquitoes. Despite this, no mosquito killers or repellents were offered by the hotel.
The safety box in my room is not working. The cleaning lady is not checking on the conditions of the stuffs in the room.
Hotel required to spend a minimum of THB 2000 to use the pavilion at the swimming pool is unreasonable.
The shower sink in my room was not working well. The water pressure was too low, and the water did not drain properly, causing it to spill everywhere.
Shall not come again.
Also all the receptionists have helped me to recieve my lost baggage, through whole week they every day called to the airports until my bag came right to the hotel. Have no words how grateful I am. I am totally in love with Arinara and for sure will be back a lot of times. Really enjoyed staying.
spacious. It felt like a good place one could get lost and relax. The pool and restaurant areas were lovely too! We has a chicken burger for room service and it was delicious!
Two concerns:
1. There was a garden snake close to the bar area - a very small and harmless one. The bar staff killed the snake by taking its head off with a rake and then waving the dead snake at guests.
This was truly a very unsettling incident and not a healthy and humane example for the kids around to watch. I hope that the hotel can rather create a culture of relocating unwanted snakes/ animals and protecting the natural environment.
2. The beach directly outside the hotel was a mess the night we arrived! The trash washed up on shore was the worst I've seen in Thailand. I thought that the trash would be cleaned by the next morning, but it was only until the afternoon, a clean up was initiated by a few guests and then the staff joined in. I hope that the hotel can take more responsibility for Bangtao Beach clean up and incorporate it into their Beach Club Guest Activities.
Special thanks to Jane who helped round up staff for the beach clean up!
The cleaning lady took a bunch of cash hidden under some clothes, I ran into her and asked her if she took my money she said she thought it was her tip. Again, this wasn’t out in the open it was very hidden and she did not fold or put away any clothes. She returned the money. The room was not cleaned well each day.
The main restaurant has terrible over priced food. There are a ton of restaurants on the beach that are half the price and taste better, try those.
They never provided us information about their fire show which my son and I missed. When I asked if they knew of any other fire shows the staff shrugged their shoulders and went about their business.
The location is ideal! It’s very easy to get around and there are tons of shops and restaurants in the area. The pool is pretty and very kid friendly, my son really enjoyed the little boats they have.
Overall, after staying at a much nicer resort in Phuket then coming here, I wouldn’t return. You can get a much cleaner modern stay for the same price a few blocks away.
