10/10 Excellent
"This Resort at Kata Beach was perfect for our group of 6. Close to the beach, restaurants, massage parlors, and shopping. The rooms are big and very clean. The restaurant food buffet is affordable and good. The pool bartender Nott is awesome, friendly and makes a great Pina Colada. Would recommend this Resort to anyone."

10/10 Excellent
"This is the second time I have been to this resort and will definitely return again. From the moment you arrive you are greeted by the lovely, friendly staff and given a welcome drink which is very refreshing after the journey from the airport. The rooms are a nice size and very modern and have large balconies and modern bathrooms. The use of thongs, bath robes and a lovely beach bag add to the experience of luxury. The beds are very comfortable and I slept very well. The rooms are air conditioned, quiet and nice and light. The food at breakfast is to die for. So much selection for all travelers. The pools are beautiful and if you are lucky enough to find the adult only pool then it's a bonus. The pool bar staff are very attentive and always so friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much for them. The pools have bars so look out for happy hour as the staff make really nice cocktails. The food in the main restaurant is fantastic so hats off to the chefs. The walk down to the restaurants outside the resort are a bit far but there is a free shuttle bus if you don't fancy the walk down. All in all, this is one of the best resorts I have stayed at in Thailand."
