The pearl of these places and one of the best hotels I've ever been to.
The hotel was chosen literally on the spur of the moment, in the car, when I decided to leave Phuket for a short while, as they say, wherever my eyes look. I was attracted by the photos, the large green area, the proximity to the sea and some interesting bridge to it. At first, I didn't even pay attention to the name of the hotel, which later turned out to be a pleasant surprise, but first things first.
The hotel is located quite a distance of 7 km from the main road leading to Khao Lak. It's difficult to get here without a car or a bike.
It has a large and very interesting area with a beautiful landscape. On the territory there is a separate reception, flowing into the restaurant, several buildings and separate villas. The design is authentic Thai style, in its normal understanding, in my opinion. Reminds me of Balinese. I want to look at the details, everything is very elegant))
Check-in is quite fast, in a building with rooms overlooking the garden. You can drive to your building in your car, there are small parking lots near the buildings.
Perhaps the building itself is not new, but personally I was very delighted with the room. It is quite large, with a very beautiful Thai design. The room has a huge bed, pushed together from two, 2 wardrobes, a table with a mirror, another large table, a mini-fridge, various bedside tables, chairs. The bathroom has a separate aesthetic: sliding stained glass doors and a small window, beautiful tiles with imitation mosaic in golden shades, the bathtub itself, a shower cabin behind glass. Good towels, there are 2 thick and soft waffle robes, a good set of deliciously smelling cosmetics. The balcony is small, but also nice, if you want to sit there, and with a beautiful view of the garden.
The hotel territory turned out to be really huge, pleasant for walking, with different paths, bridges, bushes, palm trees, etc. The road to the beach leads along a wooden bridge. Everything is very authentic and Instagrammable. The coastline resembles Bangtao Beach. There are several sun loungers and straw umbrellas.
The discovery was that the hotel has its own spa complex with equipped hot springs, inscribed in the general landscape of the hotel. There is a cold plunge pool, and a huge swimming pool. Naturally, all this is available to guests from morning until late evening.
The next morning another wonderful surprise awaited: simply a gorgeous buffet, and it was truly one of the best I have seen, and surpassed many much more expensive hotels. A selection of dishes and appetizers from European and Thai cuisine: ready-made salads, fresh vegetables, meat and sausages, cheese, olives, black olives, capers, fruits, cereals, milk, pastries, very tasty real dark bread that smells like bread (which is rare in Thailand). Hot dishes: eggs in different forms, soups, hot Thai dishes. Very decent coffee from the coffee machine. It seems to me that I even missed something, and there is much more there))
The restaurant also offers lunch and dinner from the menu.
I was very delighted with the hotel, I think that it offers much more than it costs.
On the downside: tourists are brought to the spa area in droves, with a Day Pass (500 baht). It turns out that hotel guests are forced to share sun loungers and listen to noisy hubbub. For me, this is a minus.
I would also advise taking mosquito spray with you, and if you want to chew something or drink something tasty, it is better to take it with you right away.
To sum it up - the hotel is gorgeous, I will come back here with great pleasure.
