Not recommended
The photos look like they were taken when the hotel first opened. When we first arrived there was no one at reception and one of the cleaners had to call her to get the receptionist back to the hotel to check us in, she seemed surprised that they had a booking. The bed was extremely hard almost like it was the bed base and not a mattress. The pillows were also very hard and my wife and I both woke up after a sleepless night, due to the bed and pillows, very sore and both with sore necks. The tap water stank of chlorine and so did the pool so much so we didn’t want to swim in it, which was unfortunate as this was one of the main reasons why I chose this hotel. The air conditioners remote didn’t work properly so the air conditioner was freezing. Overall I wouldn’t recommend the hotel.

Relaxed stopover
The staff were helpful when booking transfers to the airport. Our stay was just a transit stop off, ideal if needing an overnight stay somewhere, one of the few places to stay with a pool. The pool was a delight. Enjoyable dinner at the restaurant (Roasted Duck seemed more like a local delicacy and quite chewy though) rest was very tasty. It was in a quiet location, we had a walk nearby but not much apart from a small shop, you'd need a taxi to the town. We thought the outdoor showers were a real novelty! No bugs or critters in the room. Firm bed I slept really well there.

Very nice
We were in transit from Koh Samui to Bangkok and weren't sure what to expect. What a nice surprise! The room was very large, the open bathroom was a delight, and both were spotlessly clean and well presented. Nice gardens and home cooked meal at the restaurant were excellent . Wifi never stopped working (unlike the super expensive resort we stayed in at koh Samui) . For the money this is great value.

I'll stay again
Very nice hotel in secluded neighborhood. The property is spacious with a nice pool and restaurant. The food was good and reasonably priced. The owners gave excellent service! The room was clean and comfortable. The bed was a little hard for my preference, but that is typical for Thailand. I don't think I would stay at any other place in Surat Thani.

Nice quiet spot to unwind
Great place to kill a day by the pool while waiting for onward transport. People were really friendly and helpful. Didn't matter that they didn't speak English these things can be worked around. ~ 1 km walk to a main street with plenty of shops and restaurants. But food at hotel restaurant was very good. ~25 min and 250 baht to the airport.

diamond in the rough....
great place to stay, very quiet and off the beaten track, but lovely bungalows with quirky outside shower and toilet ( well secluded). Plenty of wildlife around, geckos, frogs, pond full of fish. Manager gave us a lift to the bus station in his own jeep, and also helped us organise the boat to Koh Phangan.

Great spot for a night!
We spent one night here as we were coming from samui and flying out the next morning. It's a bit out of town so if you want to do stuff in town it's not the best but from what we saw there wasn't a ton to do there. The rooms and facilities were lovely. Wifi worked, room was big and clean and the bathroom was great with a nice outdoor shower. The mattress was rock solid. Good food at the restaurant. Pool looked nice enough, tho small. We didn't use it because it rained while we were there. Friendly staff. Would stay again for a night waiting for a flight but probably not if I wanted to see surat thani long term.

Nice Hotel with warm family touch.
Hotel location is abit out of town. It is good for a day of transit. Hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. Indeed we all have fun and big laugh when we arrive at the hotel...checking in with our baggages wheeled by a bulllock cart to our room. In fact we like the environment and the friendly staff and the homecook dinner which we enjoy so much. We will definitely come back again to this hotel should we plan to visit Koh Samui in the future.

Not a great way to end our trip to Thailand.
Would highly recommend spending that extra bit of money to get a more direct flight to Koh Samui and avoid doing a stop over in Surat Thani. The taxi driver charged us an extra 200 baht on top of what we had already paid for prior. No one can really speak English so was quite hard to communicate. Compared to the experience we had in both Koh Phangan and Koh Samui, this place made me feel really unsafe and won't be doing a stop over next time we travel to Thailand. The taxi driver was also 1/2 hour late in the morning to take us to the airport so thank goodness we didn't miss our flight. The bed was like sleeping on a hard floor and the bathroom is outside.

Great rooms, great food, great staff.
New, immaculate an tasteful bungalows with gorgeous outdoor showers and a delightful pool make this the nicest place I´ve stayed in Surat Thani.The food at the restaurant is really good too, and the staff are lovely. Don´t worry if the day staff don´t speak much English, the owner and his wife live on site and will be home in the evening and they speak English. It really felt ike staying with a famly here- the owner even drove me on his own moped to get a massage! The only drawback is it is out of the centre, but in Surat Thani does that really matter? If you want somewhere chilled and comfortable to wait for your onward transportation, I would recommend this place for sure.

Ideaal voor families met kinderen!
Wij verbleven hier in een familiekamer, supergroot en we konden van de bank een babybedje maken door hem om te draaien en tegen de muur te schuiven. Ideaal want in deze regio zijn babybedjes lastig te verkrijgen. Gave buitendouche en avondeten prima! We verbleven hier 1 nacht voordat we naar de ferry gingen.

Hyggeligt resort med fin pool i rolige omgivelser.
Lille godt resort med lille lækker og ren pool. Fin bungalow med 2 enkeltsenge og en kingsizes seng lige ved poolen med god plads, og hyggeligt med badeværelse der delvist var åbent ud til. Eneste minus var de ekstremt hårde senge, hvor der blot var et tæppe ovenpå fjedrene. Morgenmad ikke noget særligt, men ok, og vi blev mætte. Ca 2 km til nærmeste familymart(lille supermarked). Meget roligt område.

Ett hotell man mellanlandar på.
Vi ville bara sova på ett en natt innan vi reste vidare till Koh Phangan. Sängarna var så hårda att det kändes som att ligga på ett liggunderlag direkt på stengolvet. Rummen var dock stora och rena. Vi hade även valt detta hotell för att de hade pool för barnen längtade så efter att bada men den var inte tillgänglig efter det blivit mörkt ute. Maten ok.

Il nous a donné tous les bons conseils nécessaires et nous a même emmener avec sa voiture jusqu'au bus du ferry. Très jolis bungalows a l'écart de la ville.

Prima hotel voor 1 nacht op doorreis
Surat thani heeft niet veel te bieden en wij zochten hotel voor 1 nacht. Het is familie hotel met losse huisjes. Verwacht geen grote luxe. De familie kamer (4 personen) was uitstekend en had een L vorm zodat de kinderen toch afgescheiden sliepen. Badkamer prima . Kamer heel schoon, eten heel erg lekker. De bedden zijn wel erg hard en je voelt de veren van het bed. Eigenaar spreekt redelijk Engels de rest niet. Eigenaar heeft ons zelf de andere ochtend naar het busstation gebracht en toen bleek dat we een zonnebril waren vergeten is hij zelfs nog een keer op en neer gereden. Prima hotel dus als je op doorreis bent.

Terrible beds and really bad food,
We booked only one nigth Before we should fly to Bangkok. And it became to be a really bad eperience. The staff could almost no English at all. When we got there we just put in our backpackers and Went to the restuarant for some lunch. And this was bad, really bad the one ho made this lunch just can´t no how to Cook. we ordered chicken with cashew nuts and steamed rice. There was no sauce, some vegetables and some chicken pieces that was like chewing gum. It was so close to inedible as you can get. After that we went to the little city that, there and went for a while, took an ice cream and went back. When we came back, we thought adding us and rest a while, then we make our next horrible discovery. The bed, we know that the beds are hard in Thailand but this was hard as a rock, just like lying on the floor. After trying to get some rest, I went to reception and asked if they had a softer mattress that we could put on top of our but there was not. When I explained to the owner who come unless there is some softer beds, we could not stay at the hotel. He showed me a few other rooms but these beds were just as bad. So I asked the owner to call a cab, and went back to the room and we booked a room at another hotel. This was admittedly a 2 star hotel, but we have stayed at several such during our our previous stays in Thailand, but it has never been this bad.
