Accommodation and facilities:
I have stayed here before. If you have health problems, this is not the place for you as the rooms ae situated on the side of a steep hill. Walking may be difficult unless you ask for a room near the top. The beds are hard and I would think that better beds for this hotel would help. I also think the bathtubs are obsolete. They are raised and very difficult CLIMBING into them for a shower with no curtain. Water goes everywhere. My biggest complaint - having to pay 300 bt for taxi to go to town (6-7 minutes away or 3 km.)By tukj tuk or the hotel taxi, the charge is ridiculous. They used to have a complimentary service. Its 250 bt for return by tuk tuk. We decided it was cheaper to rent a car for 1500 bt/day and tour the countryside as well. This fact alone would make me want to stay at another hotel closer to town. ALSO, 600 bt charge for 5 hours wifi is excessive. They do have ONE laptop available at office for free. Wait in line.

Accommodation and facilities:
Delightful place in a wonderful position perched on cliffside. Large rooms and fantastic sea view with lots of jungle surrounding. Well laid out bungalows so that you never really noticed your neighbors. Good food at the restaurant. Unfortunately they do no allow late checkout, but did allow use of pool after 12 noon.
Reservation service:
quick efficient booking.

Accommodation and facilities:
Very nice place. People were nice & friendly. Rooms were well maintained. Perfect location if you want to be away from the Mayhem. If you don t like steep hills then its not for you or hire a motorbike & drive yourself to & from the room like we did. Breakfast room service was always the same, Better off getting up & eating at the restaurant.Much more variety. We found this out 5 days later as no-one explained this. Would liked to have had a little sports house with maybe table tennis & pool table. That would be nice. The only thing I have to maybe complain about is the fact that no-one was available to speak english. Virtually impossible to communicate & organise most of the time unless when the boss is there. Besides that...I would highly recommend it. Value for money is great.
Reservation service:
All good but Once again communication in English was limitted.

Accommodation and facilities:
Wonderful surroundings, wonderful breakfast buffé but you need transfer to get to the beach, which the hotel provide. We enjoyed Kata Beach much more than Karon Beach. Since the hotel is in a rainforrest there were bugs in the room and there was a smell of damp... Wonderful location of the pool but not much sun because of all the trees. Compared to other restaurants the food was a bit expensive. Free water bottle every day and free safetybox.

Booking worked without exception

The most beautiful romantic hotel in all of phuket! The rooms are all so private with beautiful views!!! The breakfast and restaurant are amazing, great selection and great staff. Far enough away from patong to be in your own word, but free shuttle bus into town if need be! Would stay here again!

Accommodation and facilities:
1. Location: The hotel is located on the cliff and a little far from the sea and the beach. But it has 3 free- of-charge shuttle buses everyday from the hotel to Patong and Karon Beach. And it is well isolated from the noisy crowd so it is perfect for me. 2. Room: Great sea view from the deluxe ocean view room. facilities of the room are OK. Free WIFI in room which is quite rare in Thailand. But the most inconvenient thing is that we had to climb many stairs from the room to anywhere: the gate of the hotel,the reception and the restaurant. Also note that the swimming pool on the website is much smaller than it looks like. Moreover it is NOT near the sea as it appears on the photo. 3. Services: Staffs are welcoming and willing to help. Though some of them don t understand well enough English. Restaurant in hotel is good but the price is a little bit higher. Same as the massage. Overall, it is a excellent choice for people who wanna enjoy their vacation in peace with a good sea view from the cliff. We will absolutely come again in our next trip in Thailand.

Perfect view from restaurant and nice food. The Chi Chi drink is recommended :0) Bbreakfast is a bit boring(as in all other hotels) There is a shuttlebus service. The hotel spa massage is very expensive. We had a deluxe sea view room right next to the pool. Room nr. 112. It had a beautiful view of the sea. Small pool area. Lots of stairs everywhere. If the hotel was located closer to the city of Karon, then we would come again, but it is too far away from everything.
Reservation service:
Very easy....quick email-answer
