The hotel offers rooms that are beautifully decorated and spacious, with a good standard of cleanliness. The staff is relatively friendly, although there are some lapses in addressing complaints. The location is convenient, with rooms either overlooking the pool or a restaurant roof. The dining options are delicious, especially the buffet spread.

The hotel is a gem, offering better rooms than Karona at the same rate. I loved the convenient location that was easily accessible without stairs. However, the service lacked enthusiasm and language proficiency, though the walks to the beach and bus stop were helpful.

I absolutely loved the location of the hotel, being right near Karon beach and a short stroll to Kata Beach, surrounded by lovely restaurants. The staff were fantastic and extremely professional, although some aspects like the room decor and beds were not up to European 4-star standards. However, the beautiful water pond nearby added a special touch to the dining experience.

I had a great stay at this hotel. The rooms were very large and beautifully furnished, but there was a slight smell in the bathroom and the water wasn't great. The service was super friendly and the location was convenient, just a 2-minute walk from Karon Beach. The dining experience was a bit bland, but the hotel had a lovely setup. Overall, a good value for money option.

I stayed at this hotel for one night and decided to check out due to various issues. While the room I booked had a sea view, it was disappointing overall with dated furnishings and a smelly bathroom. The property felt old, and the lack of lifts meant constantly using stairs. Additionally, the location wasn't ideal, with expensive one-way fares to nearby Patong.
Rooms
5.0
The room I stayed in needed serious upgrading and felt dated. The sea view was the only positive aspect.
Service

The service was a mixed experience. While some staff were accommodating, waking us up to fix a leak was disruptive. There were also discrepancies in currency exchange which led to unexpected charges.
Location
5.0
The hotel is near the beach and restaurants, but the overall location felt lacking compared to other parts of Karon. The cost to get to Patong was quite high as well.
Dining

The dining experience was average with limited options and weak cocktails. Some improvements, like adding more variety, would enhance the overall dining experience.

The pool was more for display than use. Some areas, like the pool, could have been improved for guest enjoyment.
