Best part about this hotel is the location! Easy beach access beautiful beach to the front of hotel & an array of restaurants and bars & temple with night market to the rear.. hotel is getting old and tired could do with a refresh, noisy old fridge in the room and air conditioning unit that sounded like an aircraft taking off, and alas on the last day they tried to sting me for a beach towel in which of course i hadnt taken, the maid had cleaned away and not refreshed … good hotel for the price location even better! But not brilliant facilities

Convenient location and well designed spaces. Pool is beautiful but could do with expanded evening hours for dip as weather is quite humid and suitable for night swims.The gym and ping pong combined room should allow windows to be opened particularly as AC is off or not working most of the time. Having combined spaces restricts use of ping pong table if someone is walking the treadmill. The AC in our room was very noisy even at low fan - no choice but to have it on at night as room became stuffy without air. We tried sleeping with balcony doors open but mossies made it difficult plus it was more warm and humid. Minor hiccups in otherwise beautiful stay. Due to pandemic its a panned down breakfast and room service and that is understandable for the amount of guests. Most of the shops are just beginning to reopen getting ready for the return of tourists. We found it peaceful, refreshing and lovely place as always. Will stay again.

Deluxe pool access room was extremely large and comfortable, bed was hard but staff were happy to assist by adding a mattress topper. The pool area infront of block 3 (especially rooms 3101 and 3102) needs to be cleaned better as water had a slimy film on it on a few days, which caused me to slip on steps and cut my knee and hurt my foot but I will commend management on offering assistance to take me to hospital and cover expenses, which I declined so manager Dan attended to cleaning, disinfecting and bandaging my knee himself, which I was very grateful of. Security guards at Beach end were extremely friendly and helpful with advice, it was such a pleasure to be greeted by them everyday and have a little chat. Location of hotel is great, with restaurants, 2 mini marts and a few shops and spas in the lane leading from beach end to hotel.

Staffs need to have more training how to treat and take care of the guests while check in and check out ,and also lack of skills to communicate like the others 4 hotel stars do - Need to improve. Breakfast taste is very ordinary and boring. I have to ask more food to replenish due to there is nothing left if you com to have breakfast late.
