Beautiful hotel, but better for couples
It was a gorgeous place. Lots of nice little touches in the room, everything smelled fantastic. We had asked for two twin beds, but got only one king sized. But they turned a lounge area into a second bed. The guy who seemed to be the leader at the front desk, did try to move us into a way worse room with two beds, and kept telling us it was better and we would have to pay more. It was a horrible room, nestled in a corner far away from the pool and restaurant, no view at all, and it looked like it was in the process of being renovated. When we balked at the idea of switching, he said even though it was a better room, he would give it for the same price as our original room, which was wayyyy bigger, with a HUGE bathroom, outdoor shower, etc. Left a bad taste in our mouths. He also said replacing a key would cost ? He said he would have to get it replaced from Bali, Indonesia. I'm serious. They would get taxis for you, but like most other places in Phuket and Koh Phangan, and even Bangkok, people would just look at you and make up an arbitrary number. Using a meter or showing you a chart of fixed prices for different destinations just didn't happen. You were getting gouged, but if you were from the states, the difference was 4 or 5 dollars. So not the end of the world. Their beach was in an area with very low tides during the day, so swimming in the ocean during the day is out of the question. It's knee deep for about a hundred and fifty yards out.
