The 147 rooms are divided into 42 beach bungalows, 14 seaview bungalows, 11 Deluxe Bungalows and 80 Deluxe rooms. All have air conditioning, mini-bar, hot water shower and bath, cable television and direct dial telephone. The restaurant serves Thai and international dishes as well as fresh seafood. All kinds of services are also available to guests.
Accommodation and facilities:
Nice place, clear sea, clear beach. The staff is not so attentive to guests. There was many cellers on the beach and we bored from them. Breakfast usual like in any hotel. Room is clear and the towels are white. About food - we can advise the Japan restaurant on the Chaweng beach road and we don t advise the Steak house on the same street. We had the great walks in evenings on the Chaweng beach, near sea. I wish everybody the great rest on the Samui. :)

Eine traumhafte Kulisse am Strand wie auch die Anlage selbst. Es gibt allerdings ein Problem, das während der 2 Wochen latent vorhanden war und auch nach mehreren persönlichen Gesprächen mit dem Managment sowie der Rezeption nicht gelöst wurde, das sind die streunenden Hunde, die täglich am Strand herumlaufen. Diese Hunde, man muß es so drastisch wiedergeben -pissen und scheißen- an den Strand.Ein absolutes no go. Zusätzlich laufen diese Köter jedem hinterher, der etwas essbares bei sich hat. Es gibt allerdings viele Reisende, die diese Hunde füttern. Die Problematik, gibt es bei fast allen Anlagen. Es ist für die Zukunft wünschenswert, hier eine gemeinsame Lösung im Sinne aller Urlauber zu erarbeiten, denn Urlaub ist doch die schönste Zeit im Jahr!

Bonjour, Nous avons séjourné en famille dans cette hôtel. Ns ne le recommandons pas. Les réceptionniste n étaient vraiment pas sympatique surtout Mme le dragon. Elle ne parle pas elle gueule. Nous sommes arrivé à 21h00 le soir nos lits étaient sale et il avait oublié de mettre un lit enfant de plus. Déjeuner : il ne faut surtout pas arrivé plus tard que 930 car il ne faut plus rien à manger. Les tables sont sale et le personnel n est pas dutout souriant! Concernant les bungalow ils ont bien subi les inondations du mois de mars 2011 (il ne faut pas s attendre à du luxe). Quand il y a des coupures ils ne sont pas très rapide pendant 4-5 heures deux jours de suite. Heureusement qu ils sont sur la route de chaweng. Drôle de politique pour un hôtel ou tu paies quand même plus de 130.-- la chambre.

Alors pour du sawadee il on était très arrangant car vous savait qu il y a eu des inondations. Ils ont était super cool pour tout les changements de jour. Juste un petit point négatif pas très rapide mais super!
