Oceanfront Beach Resort - SHA Extra Plus

This beach resort is very good. We got the view by the pool. Also, the room was spacious and clean. The room service was also well received. We appreciate the service and we had a buffet every morning. We had a wide variety of cuisines to choose from. Overall good and satisfying 👍

We enjoyed our stay in this hotel. There was a huge choice of food for breakfast and also delicious shakes and coffees. The hotel has a pool with beautiful view and a pool bar. You can also find there a gym and squash, which we loved playing. If you want to travel to centre, hotel is providing a car until 20:30 and on the way back tuk tuk is around THB150-300, depending on time&place. Nearby you will also find 7-11.

I recently stayed at the ocean front and had an unforgettable experience! The resort is stunning, with pristine pools, and a breathtaking view. The staff were friendly and attentive, providing exceptional service.

The food was delicious, with a wide range of options, and the activities were top-notch. Our room was spacious and elegantly decorated. We loved our stay and can't wait to go back!

Special thanks to Miss Sasikan Chamnankun for making our baby moon even special

We booked ocean comfy room and when we first arrived, there’s no one greeted us. We came by Grab and the driver left us below Lobby level which we didn’t even know where the lobby was. There’s workers at the bar just see us finding the lobby and when we asked only he told us that the lobby is at Level 1.

When we go to the lobby at Level 1, there’s no other customers at the lobby but all receptionists seem busy and no one entertain us even when we go to one of them. At first she gave a room at 4th floor which is the same floor as swimming pool but we don’t think of anything. Once we arrived at the room, we can see that people were walking in front of our window which is really unacceptable as there is no privacy at all.

We go back to the receptionist and asked to change to a new room since the one we booked was supposed to be ocean view but the receptionist said that our ocean comfy room type is half pool and half ocean view which was not stated in the website or agoda. She gave us a room upstairs that’s still acceptable to us as that’s the only room available during that time.

The room is damp and floor is moist. I think maybe because the weather is really hot so they increase the humidity in the room?? But my clothes and hat feels damp after 1-2 days in the room. Need to open the windows to let the hot air in to lessen the humidity.

The shower room is clogged and when I called the receptionist, they send a technician to fix it and we thought the issue is gone since there’s no more water filling the shower room. Once I took shower again, it clogged and not moving even slow. So my husband suggested to open the lid to see if it could solve the issue and yes, once we open the lid in the shower room, the clogged water gone. So every time we want to take a shower, we’ll need to open the lid. This is really inconvenient to us and not acceptable as for so called 5 stars hotel.

Overall, the breakfast was good as we can eat the fruits and cereal since they’ve mentioned there’s no halal food provided. There’s freshly blended fruit smoothie too which we can request for any fruit available there. The staff at cafe during breakfast was really nice.

Also, there’s free shuttle service to Bangla Road which starts around 30min-1hour.

I have mostly good things to say about the hotel. The hotel staffs were very welcoming, and every request was addressed within a short time span.

It had a great location too, facing the ocean with constant view of the ceaseless waves from our room.

If you are staying at the hotel, do note that when using ride-hailing services, you might need to communicate with the driver on whether you are planning to board/drop off at the more accessible front entrance at the Mezzanine level or the hotel lobby at the back.

This would avoid unnecessary delays and potential cancellations in your trip.

Overall a great experience at Oceanfront. My partner and I stayed here for 5 days. The bar girls were absolutely lovely to deal with (Vivi, Mai and one of the other girls I didn’t capture the name of were so lovely and are definitely assets to the resort). The breakfast honestly was amazing, so many options for everyone with lots of western options (we found the other resorts we stayed at didn’t cater well to western options for breakfast). The room was incredibly clean and so so spacious. The cleaners were also very good, and would maintain the room every time we would press the clean room button. The pools were amazing, and the gym had enough equipment to have a substantial workout. I would recommend Oceanfront. The only constructive feedback I would give to Oceanfront is to replace their pool lounges as they are a bit on the weathered side but otherwise a fantastic experience and we were incredibly pleased with our spacious room!

Overall the hotel I would give it a 7.5/10. The welcoming was really bad 0 for hospitality. The hotel did not consider customers coming from long over night flights. No refreshments were offered during the wait time while the room was being prepared. The hotel seemed understaff with the reception lady not being very hospitable.
Food gets the best points, 9/10.
We took the Grand Ocean View Room, beautiful view, clean room. Only downside is the old ac with a loud noise as long as it was on and you can hear everyone outside.
All in all not a bad location, and clean hotel.
