Amazing
MMarie Gertrude Helene KarynThis was my first time at La Flora but I was amazed by everything the hotel had to offer. Great location, great pools, great amenities but most importantly really great staff. The room cleaning service was also impeccable. The perfect place to relax and enjoy a great holiday.
Will definitely be back ❤️
GGuest UserWe had a really nice stay at the hotel. The owner takes allot of pride in what she owns. All areas have been professionally built, there is a very small pool, but it was a perfect size for my 4yr old to practice his swimming without armbands. The breakfast was delicious. A random main was usually made consisting of eggs which I enjoyed. However my partner is vegan but still she loved the options of cereals, drinks, toast and fruit provided.
The location was close enough to walk to some locals shops but scooter rental was available.
We booked a similan trip through the host, which was a very competitive rate. Also on a evening there is a very close bar (around 5mins walk) called happy snapper. Live music, food, drinks, nice surroundings and good for children to play.
GGuest UserDISAPPOINTED EXPERIENCE AT THAI BAKING COMPANY
New hotel, clean and comfortable. Great atmosphere. Staff are friendly and polite.
Overall, I was very impressed, except for one of the female staff at the dessert shop.
**** A FEMALE STAFF AT “ THAI BAKING COMPANY ” MAKE ME DISAPPOINTED . ( APRIL 23rd ,2025 at about 3 P.M. ) *******
SHE NOT EVEN GREETING OR SUGGEST US .
The female staff saw us and ignored us, not even welcoming us or offering any advice on the menu.
When we entered the restaurant, she ignored us. We had to try to ask her how to order and the price ourselves. I asked about the Thai dessert menu and how to order or pick up the desserts. She pointed to the place but I didn't know how to pick them up, where to find the plates or utensils, and I had to ask and ask for the utensils to pick up the desserts myself.
when we got our dessert, my parents waited for a long time without her even bringing them a fork or plate to use. I tried to ask for a spoon and fork to use for eating the dessert, but she was greeted with an expression that made me feel uncomfortable.
My parents felt bad, even my father said that she was acting disrespectful and disinterested because we are Thai.
There were many good things that happened at this hotel, but the facial expression and the way that the female staff treated us made us unable to forget that bad situation.
Please warn that female staff not to make such gestures and facial expressions with anyone else.
บรรยากาศและพนักงานส่วนใหญ่ของโรงแรมนั้นดีเยี่ยม
ยกเว้นการบริการและการปฎิบัติของพนักงานหญิงที่ THAI BAKING COMPANY เมื่อวันที่ 23 เมษายน 2025 (เวลาประมาณบ่าย 3 ) เมื่อเราเข้าไปในร้าน พนักงานหญิงคนนั้นเห็นว่าเราเดินเข้าไปและแม้ไม่ได้แสดงท่าทีต้อนรับ ไม่มีคำทักทาย (ไม่พูดด้วยเลย) บรรยากาศในร้านช่างน่าอึดอัดและไม่มีบรรยากาศของการต้อนรับซึ่งแตกต่างจากทุกที่ในโรงแรม ฉันต้องการจะพาพ่อและแม่ของฉันเข้าไปชิมขนมไทย แต่เมื่อฉันเดินเข้าไปก็พบว่าไม่มีใครสนใจหรือแนะนำอะไรเลย ฉันต้องถามพนักงานว่าจะต้องสั่งอาหารอย่างไรหรือมีเมนูขนมไทยใช่หรือไม่ เธอเพียงแค่บอกว่าขนมอยู่ตรงนั้นและชี้นิ้วไปที่ขนม ฉันยืนงงและอึดอัด และต้องหันไปถามพนักงานคนนั้นอีกครั้งว่าแล้วเราจะต้องหยิบขนมอย่างไร ( เราไม่มีอุปกรณ์ที่จะใช้หยิบหรือไม่มีจานให้หยิบวางด้วยซ้ำ ) เธอจึงหยิบจานและอุปกรณ์ที่ใช้ในการหยิบให้เรา พร้อมทั้งบอกราคาด้วยสีหน้าไม่ใส่ใจ เมื่อได้ขนมมาแล้วฉันมีธุระที่ต้องออกไปข้างนอกร้าน ฉันให้พ่อกับแม่นั่งรออยู่ในร้าน เมื่อกลับเข้ามาในร้านอีกครั้งฉันพบว่าพ่อและแม่ของฉันนั้นนั่งอยู่พร้อมกับจานขนมที่เราหยิบกันมาโดยที่ไม่มีพนักงานแนะนำท่านทั้งสอง ไม่มีแม้แต่จานและช้อนที่ใช้เพื่อรับรับประทานอาหาร พนักงานไม่สนใจพ่อและแม่ของฉันอย่างสิ้นเชิง เรามากัน 3 คนพ่อแม่ลูก ตอนที่นำน้ำเปล่ามาให้ พนักงานก็เอาน้ำเปล่ามาให้ในทีแรก เขาก็เอามาแค่ 2 แก้ว ทั้งที่เรามากัน 3 คน พ่อของฉันเป็นผู้ชายที่ไม่จุกจิกก็ยังรู้สึกได้ถึงบรรยากาศที่น่าอึดอัดและบอกกับฉันว่าพนักงานไม่มีท่าทางที่เป็นมิตรเลย พนักงานแสดงท่าทางดูถูกเพียงเพราะว่าเราเป็นคนไทยงั้นเหรอ ?
การมาพักที่โรงแรมในครั้งนี้มีเรื่องดีๆเกิดขึ้นมากมากมายทั้งบรรยากาศ พนักงานผู้คน บรรยากาศ ธรรมชาติต่างๆ แต่สิ่งที่ทำให้เราจดจำมากที่สุดกับกายเป็นพนักงานหญิงที่มีท่าทางไม่ยินดีต้อนรับคนนั้น
อยากให้ทีมบุคคลหรือผู้ที่ทำหน้าที่ดูแลพนักงานช่วยอบรมหรือแจ้งพนักงานหญิงคนนั้นให้ปรับพฤติกรรม และอย่าแสดงสีหน้าหรือท่าทางแบบนั้นกับแขกคนไหนอีกไม่ว่าเขาจะเป็นผู้เข้าพักชนชาติไหนก็ตาม ทุกคนมีสิทธิ์ได้รับการปฏิบัติอย่างเท่าเทียม
P.S. ขอชื่นชมพนักงานขับรถบัคกี้ชื่อ “ คุณโดม ” ให้คำแนะนำอย่างดีเยี่ยมและเป็นมิตร เสนอการช่วยเหลือที่มีประโยชน์ ; ยกกระเป๋า ปิดประตู แนำนำร้านอาหาร ช่วยถ่ายรูปครอบครัว
PPommie JFirst warm welcome upon we arrived. The bambu bar was cool, too.The facilities we didn't use much. We just spent time in the pool because we booked the pool access room types. So overall, it is a pretty good bit lot of mosquitoes 🦟 when we get into the room that we were booked for, and everything was perfect. Just the mosquito is so annoyed during we at the pool or outside around. Well, there's nothing much to say because of surrounded.
Check-in was great. We have juice for welcome drink
Check out a bit slowly, but I do understand them as front desk duty say apologies to me. (I'm ok) 🫰At least the housekeeper should be sprayed or asmatch prepare in the room. Would be a better deal during rain season.
Room service pretty quickly 😍
Definitely I will go back to stay there again deffo!
GGuest UserOverall is a good place to stay at and we would recommend it. The hotel is a bit old style, but the property is very clean, well kept and quiet. The garden is very big, beautiful and peaceful. It has 2 pools with enough sun beds and umbrellas. We went beginning of tourist season so I guess it would be different if we went a bit later. The gym could use some new machines. For the breakfast it was ok, but I wish they had more vegetarian options for myself, but I managed. Service was great and also the check-in and check-out was fast. The location is right next to a he main road so there are plenty of restaurants around and also the beach is close by. Just need to pass through an alley on the side of their other 5* resort. They can help you organize trips and taxi service also. Unfortunately I only have pictures of the beach on my phone.
GGuest UserActually, I haven't expect anything much for hostel with the price of 200-300 Thai baht. Just sleep for one night with safe and clean room.
However, This hostel make me feel very comfortable like stay in my neighbor's house.
The room and bed is nice and clean. It is not luxurious but every stuff is prompt for guest like you are in your own home.
You can get hair dryer, drinking water, snack, microwave, bowl, glass, knife for share to every guest.
There is no staff in the hostel but you can contact owner or staff by phone. They are very kind and nice.
I saw a hostel staff ride a motorcycle come to hostel to refill drinking water in the tank in the night since a guest told owner that water is nearly empty.
There should be next time for sure to come back to this hostel. Very recommend.!
CChayadaDuring our stay, we noticed a few service issues that we’d like to share for your improvement. For example, the receptionist is usually the first impression of any hotel. As Thai guests, we naturally expect polite and respectful communication, especially the consistent use of “krab” when speaking. However, the receptionist only said “krab” once, at the very end of the conversation. It felt unusual, and we weren’t even sure if he was Thai. This small detail made the interaction feel less warm and professional than expected.
Another issue we experienced was with the à la carte dining. We placed our order and waited for 40 minutes without any update or communication from the staff. When we finally asked about the delay, we were told we’d have to wait another 30 minutes. Only after that did the staff consult with the manager and offer us some food from the buffet, but at that point, it was already quite late and there weren’t many other dining options nearby. Ms. Bowy, the Restaurant Manager, kindly offered us a cocktail or some drinks, but what we really needed was food. She later offered a 20% discount for that meal, which we appreciated, but the whole experience was disappointing.
Lastly, during breakfast, we understand it was a long weekend and the hotel was likely busy. However, since occupancy can be anticipated, we believe better preparation could have been made—both in terms of staffing and seating arrangements. When we mentioned the crowd and the wait for a table, the staff simply said, “You should come earlier for breakfast,” which didn’t feel like a very helpful response.
We truly enjoyed the atmosphere and setting of the property, but we hope these comments help in improving the overall service experience for future guests.
VVladislavKhaolak Wanaburee Resort is an ideal place for those who appreciate nature, comfort, and tranquility.
Pros: The hotel boasts a large, well-maintained area with a beautiful landscape design. It has everything: direct beach access, a picturesque stream, and even a lake. The rooms are very clean, modern, and truly meet the standards of a 5-star hotel. Daily housekeeping ensures impeccable cleanliness. The charming bridges connecting different parts of the property add a special touch. Walking across them feels like being in untouched jungles. The beach is well-equipped with sunbeds and umbrellas, and there’s a cozy beachside café nearby where you can have lunch or dinner while enjoying the sea view. The resort’s territory is full of life: you’ll see many butterflies and even friendly monitor lizards wandering around, adding to the tropical paradise vibe.
Cons: Breakfasts could be more varied, especially in terms of fresh pastries.
Good to know: The nearest 7/11 or town café is about a 15-minute walk away (there’s a sidewalk). If you prefer not to walk, a taxi costs 100 baht.
The closest self-service laundry is a 15-minute drive away (400 baht).
Overall, Khaolak Wanaburee Resort is a perfect choice for those looking to relax in harmony with nature while enjoying comfort and quality service. Highly recommended!
DDimadontstopWe booked this hotel for three nights, the ”Villa with Pool View” room. Upon check-in, we upgraded to an ocean wing, which is closer to the beach.
What I liked:
- location
- excellent breakfast, enough of everything
- quite a nice spacious villa with wooden furniture, normal internet, two showers (one of them outside) and a bath
- shower area is separated by a wardrobe, and not right in front of the windows - you can calmly change after a shower
- air conditioning worked well
- beautiful area, you can see that they clean
- enough sun loungers
- good TV, there is YouTube, you can connect HDMI
- great beach in front of the lighthouse
What I didn't like:
- lots of mosquitoes, had to ask several times to bring a fumigator
- service: took a long time to respond to a request for a fumigator, did not help with luggage upon checkout and did not really say goodbye
- no foot wash near the porch, you have to stomp to the shower with dirty feet
- no toothbrushes (further in the hotel rules it is written that toothbrushes are provided upon request, selling ”under the sauce” of care about ecology.)
Would we come back here again?
Probably yes, you just need to take mosquito repellent and toothbrushes with you :)
RRolfieAvoid Seascape Rooms Entirely - Lighthouse Works (If Upstairs!)
Our initial ”Seascape” room was uninhabitable:** overpowering mould/must smell caused breathing difficulties (tight lungs) within 30 minutes. Combined with noisy transformers outside, we fled immediately.
Staff moved us *free* to their ”Lighthouse” hotel across the road. **Beware the ground floor:** our Lighthouse room had the same severe damp/mould issue. **After one awful night, we paid extra to upgrade to a 3rd-floor sea view room.**
**This saved the stay:** The upstairs Lighthouse room was fresh, clean, comfortable (great beds/linen) with lovely views. Free water on each floor was appreciated. We extended from 5 to 7 nights here.
**Serious Issues Remain:**
1. **Seascape Building:** Avoid entirely - severe mould makes it unfit.
2. **Lighthouse Ground Floor:** Same mould/damp problem. **Only higher floors are acceptable.**
3. **Pool:** Excess chlorine on Day 1 bleached my wife's black leggings brown. Check levels before swimming.
**Bottom Line:** Only stay if you can *guarantee* an **upstairs room in the Lighthouse**. Never accept any Seascape rooms or Lighthouse ground floor rooms. The hotel must fix pervasive mould issues.
