    There’s nothing to do in the neighborhood.

    It’s peaceful. No noise 😀. Nice view from my bedroom. Breakfast was great. They helped me out for a taxi to go to bang rong pier. It was cheaper than grab. I had diner there and it was excellent.

    In our 2days staying, we felt a very bad burning smell, like trash burning that literally was a whole evening and night, even cannot open window and we cannot figure out, where it’s come from,it also smell of ranch cows and chickens nearby, regarding location there are nothing around, nearest 7-11 around 2-3km away, so need to drive, later on we accidentally found a grave stones on the mountain hill, so better don’t climb mountains lol

    Staff are really nice, food at restaurants is pretty good got a really nice view and I love morning breakfast ! Can rent a motorcycle or call ataxi right from hotel to any popular destination (with reasonable price)

    Unfortunately, the bed was hard as a rock. Super uncomfortable. There were also a couple of ants crawling around but had no issue sleeping. We didn't have a chance to explore but the hotel did seem a bit far from activities.

    The views from this hotel delivered. We were able to enjoy the sunset and sunrise. We had a short stay, but enjoyed breakfast and dinner from the balcony at the restaurant. It was a relaxing first day in Thailand. Water for purchase was decent priced. The room was clean. The deck was spacious. The area seemed quiet and peaceful.

    The only thing I would say is the 1st night I was woken up by little bugs and ants and they were biting us. But from that day on we used mosquito and bug repellent from 7/11 and sprayed the bed every night before we got in it and made sure we wiped off our feet and we was absolutely fine!

    It was a lively location away from the busyness. The view was great! We loved it and it was a nice cute cabin with our own privacy and a little balcony.

    Breakfast included in room but felt like we were encouraged to leave before 07.30 to get to the pier. The staff seemed very shocked that we wanted breakfast even though ferry did not leave until 08.30.

    The location. Only stayed 1 night as catching ferry to phi phi islands. Served a purpose.

    "Beautiful views and great Thai food, but a few unclear details with breakfast timings and billing
    • Leisure trip

    • King Room with Balcony
    • Stayed 1 night

    The breakfast time was not clearly mentioned in our confirmation email. For lunch at the restaurant, we were given two different menus featuring appetizing dishes with seemingly generous portions. However, the menus varied slightly in price, and, as expected, we were charged based on the more expensive one. Additionally, a service charge and extra taxes were applied to the bill, even though this wasn’t specified. When the dishes arrived, the portions turned out to be less generous than anticipated. Perhaps these small details could be improved for a better experience.

    Beautiful views both form our room and the restaurant. Room was very simple but clean. The Thai food we ordered at lunch was very good. Unfortunately we didn't make it on time for the breakfast which was included in our room.

    INCREDIBLE VALUE FOR WHAT WE PAID!

    They did not have a flat/top sheet to act as a barrier between you and the comforter so if that is a problem, be aware. We paid very little so we didn’t expect perfection. (-: I would highly recommend the hotel to start adding top sheet though for hygienic purposes. Otherwise, room was perfect for what we paid.

    Excellent location close to Rassada Pier. They provided transportation to pier for nominal fee. Make sure you let them know what time you want to leave, pay the nominal fee at check-in and get a receipt for driver. Our HUGE bonus was the views from our room, especially sunrise views (hotel is on a hill). What a pleasant surprise! We checked in late and didn’t know the room had views! LOL. Incredible value for what we paid! Oh! We were also able to enjoy the awesome new year’s fireworks from our room (room was on same level as restaurant/lobby).

    This place is either brand new or freshly renovated. Not a musty smell anywhere on the property. Very clean and very nice people. There are lovely beaches nearby and the walk up to the nearby temple was gorgeous. I’m not sure why this area of Phuket is so quiet. I was the only person in the resort and the only person in most restaurants I went to. The surrounding feels very village life. If you like to be off the beaten path this is a great area to be in Phuket.

    Little far to walk into town, so will need to use a taxi each time. Cost vary depending on time of day.

    Great views. Great staff, very friendly and helpful. Close to pier to go on tours. Most tours offer free pick up and drop off.

    Clear road map or instructions as Waze registered a wrong place and may frustrating guest whom can’t find

    This place is located at the cliff mountain only suitable for those with transportation. I enjoy the stay because I wanted to stay away from the hustle bustle places and rented a car . Waze make take you to a temple besides a school so you need to continue the main road till saw a big white building before turning to right and another 300meter saw a big roof warehouse on the right and you will see a signboard the resort is on right, road to go up about 100-200 meter is very steep but it’s fun . It has a breathtaking 180 degree sea and Mountain View . Hotel is well equipped with fridge , heater clean large bed , TV , cloth rack desk balcony patio set . Good value price except place can be remote for many . Perfect getaway for meditation and peaceful holiday

    It was hard to find the location and entrance as we were coming in after midnight and everything was dark with no lights on. We had to call the property multiple times and even with the help of our taxi driver just to get the right place.

    The room was big spacious, had air conditioning and it was quite clean and had a lovely view
