the unique combination of location facilities food and drink plus a good staff makes for a really relaxing holiday. half day trips to koh rok and koh haa are a must with wonderful snorkelling book this in advance if you know when you want to go.

the services offered by the spa were a little subpar i expected a different experience. i did have some minor miscommunications due to the language barrier. at times i gave up because it seemed impossible for us to be able to communicate.
