• Kaori from China (9/10)

  Anyway, a very beautiful beach spread out in front of the hotel. The staff immediately recognised my son and spoke to him every day.

• Dr from Germany (8/10)

  Khun Oh and Khun Ball at the Padi dive center are absolutely great! Fantastic with our teenagers, funny, great service and always willing to go the extra mile (night dives with boat at the wrecks). They took great photos, too. Go diving with them if you can!

• Hanadi from Saudi Arabia (9/10)

• Ahlam from Saudi Arabia (9/10)

  Amazing resort the best resort I’ve been to the sea is the best

• Seham from United Arab Emirates (9/10)

  The hotel location is gorgeous, not only the beach but the nature seeing butterflies first thing in the morning everywhere around you, birds sound and gorgeous rare trees & palm trees. the villa layout and having option to stay with your kids in the same villa was a plus for us, speed of service was excellent. the flexibility of the staff and their understanding was something we really admired showed great customer service as we booked for a week but we needed to checkout a day earlier as we booked an excursion and we weren't aware of the distance and they found a way to fulfil that! smoothly and without a need from us to further explain. Just be aware if you are arriving Phuket in the evening you need to book a hotel in the mainland to stay for that evening then the next day you can take the ferry to The Racha as no boats operating to the hotel after 4:00 pm 🙂

• Arthur from South Africa (9/10)

  This resort is absolutely amazing with the clearest water I have seen in Thailand. The facilities are beautiful and the rooms well equipped. The staff are incredible and very willing to assist. The resort provides free ice and drinking water on the beach. Breakfast provided a great selection with good quality of food. Adults only pool and a separate kids pool. Beautiful spa and gym. The restaurants served great food at a reasonable price. The restaurant made my wife`s birthday very special. The resort lights up beautifully at night.

• Emily from Australia (9/10)

  Absolutely amazing place! Could not fault it at all. The location is breath taking, the facilities are amazing, the staff went above and beyond for everything for us. We did most of the activities offered on the island and they were all great. Food for breakfast and all the restaurants was perfect. The rooms are very big and spacious and the outdoor shower is a nice touch. Would stay here for a lot longer next time to enjoy everything the island has to offer.

• Duaa from Kuwait (9/10)

  The location was beautiful. The water was crystal clear and the island had amazing views and landscapes. It felt like being in the maldives. The spa facility was exceptional and their masseuse Aye was splendid. The staff was very helpful and the resort kept up with its luxury status with small gestures and tokens every night. The property was very lavish and the rooms were spacious.
