Краткий обзор: A stunning, sprawling resort that feels like a private island until the tide goes out and the beach disappears.
Подтверждено @PrutiyaChinson3636198: I took the speedboat to the resort and honestly, the ride itself was a highlight. The water is blindingly blue and seeing those limestone cliffs up close was surreal. I felt like I was in a movie before I even checked in. Don't forget your sunglasses!

Reality check
The 'free' boat transfer is a myth—you pay dearly for convenience, and if the weather is rough, the ride is a spine-adjusting experience.
- You're a couple seeking a honeymoon bubble with a private plunge pool
- You want to snorkel right off the beach (at high tide)
- You appreciate a resort that feels like a nature reserve, complete with monitor lizards and hornbills
Чистота и уход
8.8
- Housekeeping: Daily and thorough, though sand tracking is inevitable in beach bungalows.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally sparkling, though some older units show grout wear and humidity-related mildew.
- Maintenance: Grounds are manicured to perfection. AC units in older rooms struggle with condensation.
- Linens & towels: Crisp and high quality, but beach towels can run out at the pool by mid-afternoon.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of lemongrass; rooms are fresh, though some report a 'damp' smell in rainy season.

FAQ и советы
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Is the boat transfer included in the room rate?
No. It costs approx. 1,800 THB (~$55 USD) per person, per way. You must book it at least 72 hours in advance.
Can I swim in the ocean all day?
No. Loh Ba Gao Bay is extremely tidal. At low tide, the water recedes hundreds of meters, leaving a rocky mudflat.
Is it family-friendly?
Yes, there's a dedicated family pool and a playground, but the spread-out layout can be tiring for little legs.
Are there restaurants outside the hotel?
Yes! Walk out the back gate to Loh Ba Gao village for excellent local spots like Mama Ping and Pad Thai Restaurant.
Is there a deposit at check-in?
Yes, expect a hold of around 2,000-3,000 THB per night on your credit card for incidentals.
Can I fly a drone?
Generally no, due to privacy policies for the pool villas, but you can ask permission for specific beach areas.
Советы инсайдеров
- ✨
Eat at 'Mama Ping' in the village behind the resort—better curry than the hotel for half the price.
- ✨
Book the 'Hillside Pool Villa' if you want the floating breakfast photo op; it's not available in standard rooms.
- ✨
The 'Marine Discovery Centre' feeds the sharks at specific times; ask the staff when to catch the action.
5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой
💡The 'wet landing': If you arrive at low tide, you might have to transfer from the speedboat to a longtail boat, then wade to shore.
💡The stray cats: The resort is home to many (well-fed) cats; great for cat lovers, bad for those with allergies.
💡The AC condensation: In the humid climate, AC units in older bungalows can drip water onto the floor—watch your step.
💡The buggy wait: During peak breakfast/dinner times, you might wait 20+ minutes for a buggy ride.
💡The monkey tax: Keep your balcony doors LOCKED. Macaques are smart and will raid your minibar.
