Accommodation and facilities:
Very nice hotel, great room but room service was under expectations. We stayed 6 nigths and every time we asked to change our towels, the lady forgot to put new one. The choice of food was really limited. And the problem we got was the shuttle service. It was very difficult with kids to reach Ao nang beach as we couldn t book the previous day the shuttle cos you don t know sometimes what will be your schedule with the kids and the weather. You have the choice of the monkey tray but very hard with kids under 3.

Accommodation and facilities:
We stayed in the 2 bedroom ocean villa. the villa was excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful . We had access to the club and the personalised service and food were very good.The location is beautiful and spectacular.
This location suits those who like a relaxing holiday . Access to the local town of Ao Nang was not ideal but was an adventure by speedboat or the monkey trail . we also tried a long tail boat once . Would recommend this resort and we plan to return

Accommodation and facilities:
This resort is fantastic. Situated under massive cliffs,partially covered by rainforest and literally right on the beach,you couldn t find a better location. The service is amazing, with everyone saying hello to you and genuinely wanting to help. There are activities for all tastes, although most are for those who enjoy being outside. We enjoyed swimming,boating, learning Thai, yoga, seeing monkeys, and just relaxing on the deckchairs. Tours are available to see elephants, or dreamlike tropical islands, and Ao Nang is a quick walk over the headland,or by boat, for those who want a bit of entertainment, a massage, or shopping.

LOVELY LOCATION. PERFECT SETTING.
COMFORTABLE ROOMS WITH GREAT VIEWS.
VERY UNPROFESSIONAL SERVICE & BE READY FOR SURPRISES WHEN IT COMES TO SERVICE IN THIS HOTEL. EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED AND DONT EXPECT ALOT. IN SHORT, THE VIEW FROM THE HOTEL IS WORTH ONE NIGHT STAY ONLY!!

Accommodation and facilities:
A beautiful and peaceful hide away resort sorrounded by splendid nature!! The hotel management also made you feel very special and welcome. Restaurants and other facilities where very good indeed! If I should complain about something it must be the electricity aggregate which was very noisy.This was placed at the end of the beach, but we were lucky that our room was lokated far away from it. Though we heared it verry well when we spent the time at the beach.
I ll recommend the stay for friends and family

Accommodation and facilities:
We stayed at Centara for one week in a Spa Deluxe Ocean Facing - The Club. The location of the resort is absolutely fantastic. The service is very good. The breakfast is very good, but not in The Club Lounge. The beach is very nice. The fitness room was small but had rather good equipment. One disappointing thing is that we changed room two times. The first room was located next to a huge generator that made a very very loud low-frequency noise 24h/day. It was impossible to stay here so we changed to another room that did not have sea view. After two days we eventually got a very nice room. The restaurants in the hotel are quit good but very expensive. The airport-hotel-airport transfers arranged by Centara sounds expensive but are worth every bath.

Accommodation and facilities:
My wife & I really enjoyed our 5 day stay at Centara. It is truly a beautiful location with a nice beach & a great pool. The view from our villa (1125) was excellent & the jacquzzi on the deck was a relaxing touch. The food & the service were both good. The concerns about the walkway (& the floating jetty) to Ao Nang are overblown - it takes about 10 minutes of effort on the walkway! We would certainly return & we highly recommend Centara to others!

Accommodation and facilities:
The natural setting is incredible and the hotel almost as spectacular as the location. Rooms are top notch and well designed, only issue is a LOT of stairs for those who have little tolerance for lots of steps or mobility issues. Staff could have better language skills, but otherwise friendly.
Reservation service:
Excellent
