Reviews
Unfortunately outweighed by a series of small annoyances that hold this property back. As others have mentioned there is no wifi: at check-in you will be given instructions to access this mythical internet, but it does not work. Shower door did not close properly, and weak water pressure. Glaciers have formed and melted in less time than it takes to fill the bathtub. Air conditioning stopped working in the middle of my first night, was fixed on the second day but left on maximum…didn’t figure out until a few hours before check-out that the remote has to be held inches from the sensor to work, throughout my second night I tried turning it off from a few metres away to no avail.
Rooms are large but sparse. The standard two bottles a day of complimentary water, along with coffee but not tea which was odd. Beach towels, flip-flops, umbrellas, and a beach bag with mat are provided. Drying rack on the balcony was also handy. Property does not serve alcohol; while they allow you to purchase it elsewhere and consume by the pool or beach, this is inconvenient and poor service.
The resort stretches from Railay east to west, and is not well signed or well illuminated at night. Golf carts take guests to their room upon check-in, I also called and one was sent for check-out which is standard at properties of this size.
The resort is undergoing renovations, which I won’t hold against them since it shows ongoing investment in the property. Unfortunately little effort is taken to keep this out of view of guests: construction material left lying around, trash dumped in piles just off the side of paths. A poor image.
It wasn’t horrible, but there are so many exceptional properties in Krabi and southern Thailand that this is not a competitive option.
That being said, the rooms were a bit out dated. The bathroom wasn't as clean or nice looking as we expected. The little gym was neglected, and worn down.
The restaurant was okay, some dishes great(Tom yum) some not so much(Pad thai)
The cockroaches were the least of our problems.
Our main issue was the air conditioning which did not work. We called someone out to the room 4 times but each time we were told it was either working or fixed. We resorted to cold showers through the night to keep cool.
There are clearly issues with the air conditioning unit in this room as black mould is building around the vent. The hotel have tried to cover up the issue with a fresh lick of paint.
The shower pressure was so weak it was difficult to get clean so we showered crouching in the bath.
The connecting door between us and our neighbours allowed sound to travel and we could hear their conversations.
Keep your nose peeled for the islands waste collection point; just the other side of the hedge from our room.
