• Duncan from United Kingdom (10/10)

  We had a great stay at Mandarava. The staff were so welcoming from the start especially of our 4 month old baby and really made the trip. The location is beautiful set on jungly hills and resort set out over various areas set around different pools. The pool view rooms are amazing and a great option with a baby. Food was great and we made the most of the pool bars. Breakfast was quite extensive. Can easily walk into town or get a cart in. Would recommend staying. We were less of fans about Karon beach however spent majority of the time in the resort.

• Delon from United States (10/10)

  The resort is built against a mountain. It’s not right in front of the beach, but the hotel had tuk tuk cars that took us to Karon beach. The room was clean and the maid cleaned it every day. The view from our balcony was beautiful, we can see the garden view of the property, some of the ocean and the sunset. The whole property is on a hill so you will need to climb stairs to go to the pools and the restaurants. It was hot but also felt like walking in a tropical park. Surprisingly, there are not a lot of insects with all those trees and plants.

• Charlie from United Kingdom (9/10)

  Stayed here for 3 nights as our first stop in Thailand and I don’t think any of our other hotels will top this one.
  
  The layout and aesthetic of the resort is brilliant. The photos do not do the resort or the rooms justice. Everything was kept pristine, cannot fault anything about the rooms.
  
  We only ate breakfast in the main restaurant, so cannot comment on the lunches or dinners, but the quality and range of food was also 5 star worthy. The food and drinks from the pool bars were also top tier.
  
  From check-in to check-out, the staff were always friendly and attentive. Again, definitely 5 star service.
  
  The resort is a short 5-10 minute walk down a slight hill to Karon beach and the main Karon strip. Taxis to Patong were only 450 Baht (Cheaper for anywhere closer to the resort)
  
  Would 100% recommend.
