The Reef Resort

Very cosy and really nice intimate resort at the beachfront. Perfect beach for relaxing and snorkeling Friendly and helpful personal. Evenings in the bar with other guest and games is a good way to spend time and exchange experiences of traveling in Thailand. Will come back if ever in Thailand again. Improvements suggested. - Renovate pool area within 3-5 years - paint the rooms within 2-3 years.

We spent 3 days in total at the Reef resort (and wished we’d stayed longer) and the experience was absolutely amazing! Before we arrived, we received plenty of information about the limitations on the island (such as no ATM and the fee for credit cards) as well as instructions on how to best get to Koh Kradan. At the arrival by a speedboat a hotel representative was already waiting on us to help us off board and to bring the luggage to the hotel (which in my book is not to be taken for granted). There is complimentary water available upon arrival and in every room; the rooms can be tidied on daily basis upon request (but even without it, all rooms get fresh water every day); the water-Sport equipment for SUP and kayaking are free of charge, the snorkeling equipment is free of charge, the transfer back to the speedboat pier is free of charge - a lot of things that some places would ask for an extra payment for. There are toys for kids and board games for kids and adults alike. The food offering is very qualitative for Thai food (and some western food which we didn’t try). With a consideration that Ko Kradan is a remote island to which everything needs to be brought by a boat, there are really plenty of things in the offering. The room was very clean, the AC and a ventilator both worked without any problems, and so did the shower. All rooms point towards garden, so there are two layers of curtains that do the job well of keeping the rooms private enough. Last but not least, and probably what made our experience so amazing are Genta and her team: everyone is very kind and helpful, and ready to make arrangements for the guests. Even if there are some small misunderstandings around food or anything, this is solved immediately and in a very kind way. Ko Kradan is not exactly around the corner from Germany, but we really hope to return to the Reef Resort.
