Let's get straight to the point without delay.
We bought a 2-day, 1-night package for 5,800 baht per person.
2 people for 11,600 for a mini pool villa, tropical style
I really want the Deelux Villa (it's cheaper too)
Because I want to see the canal view, it looks very beautiful from the website.
But it was full, full for about three generations, so we told the booking staff that
The fastest available room on any Saturday or Sunday, please.
It took almost two months after I called to book the villa before I finally got it.
This trip was taken on March 26-27.
Let's start with the journey.
The 2-day, 1-night package starts at Laem Sok Pier.
The appointment time is 10 am sharp. No delays are allowed. If you are late, you will have to find your own way to the boat.
Getting to Laem Sok Pier is not difficult.
Upon reaching Trat city, there are signs indicating the distance to the pier, which is approximately 24 kilometers from the city center.
At the pier, go to the check-in counter and give your name. Then, take your luggage off the boat.
From here, we will meet our bags again at the room.
Therefore, if there is anything you need to use during the trip, take it out first.
At the office while waiting for the boat, there is tea and coffee available for you to drink at any time. Please feel free to serve yourself.
The pick-up boat is a speedboat that picks up customers from Captain Hook and affiliated hotels.
Peter Pan, Tinkerbell, Wendy, the pool
The boat has life jackets ready. Everyone must wear them or they will be scolded.
The journey takes approximately 1 hour, more or less depending on the waves and wind.
Upon arrival at Captain Hook's pier, the staff was waiting to welcome us with cold drinks.
And please join us for lunch. I will summarize the food in the comments.
The staff will then inform you of the various activities included in the package.
For example, taking you to go snorkeling at the Rang Islands, kayaking, and so on.
If the water wasn't dry, he would have taken me to the waterfall.
But there is no water in the waterfall at the moment, so I didn't go.
P.S. Parking fee is 50 baht per day.
From what I've seen, the views from every room are great.
The price difference is small, only a few hundred baht.
We have pool villa number 3
The room is located on a hill, facing Ao Yai Ki. The view is amazing.
There is a pond in front of the room (can't swim, just soak your feet)
View from the room
You can watch the sunset from your room in the late afternoon.
Let's take a look inside the room.
It seems like it can accommodate 4 people (or maybe not), but 2 people would be just right.
Please note that there is no refrigerator or TV in the room.
But it's not necessary. We think there are many interesting activities here.
I don't think I have time to watch TV.
The electrical system here is available 24 hours a day.
The air conditioner is only available from 5 pm to 9 am.
Because it is a power generation system.
But don't worry about the heat, there are a lot of trees here and the breeze is very good.
And he also has a big fan for you, so if you're hot, just turn on the fan.
The room also has an umbrella and a hot water kettle.
Coffee and tea, many bottles of drinking water are available.
The bathroom is spacious and clean.
The bathroom is fully equipped with fragrant shower gel.
Let's take a look around the area.
Swimming pool, dining area and others
There is no one because they all went diving. Only we didn't go.
Activities
Apart from watching the coral reefs, as I mentioned before,
Free kayaking for all activities throughout the trip
We can't row.
So I asked the staff to help me paddle a boat along the Yai Kee canal.
The atmosphere in the canal is very good, very beautiful.
We think this area is very fertile.
Passing by Koh Makok, I secretly planned to visit again if I can overcome seasickness.
And I'll stay at Baan Makok. It's beautiful.
The package includes a firefly watching tour, but I'm not sure if it's available all year round.
Because we didn't go, and I also forgot to ask after finishing various activities and taking a short break.
This will be the evening meal, starting around 6 pm.
I will review it next.
After dinner, there will be a fire show.
The event starts around 8 pm, so you can start taking your seats or standing positions.
After watching the show, let's put some money in the tip box to support the young performers.
That's about it.
Then it's time to relax, right? Let's talk about food.
Our two-day, one-night trip will include five meals:
First day lunch, first day snacks, dinner, breakfast and lunch on the second day before returning.
Upon arrival at the resort, staff will be waiting to welcome you at the pier.
Enjoy welcome drinks, followed by a delicious lunch.
Don't worry about your luggage, the staff will take it to your room for you.
We can walk freely to find food.
First meal
It's a buffet with a wide variety of food.
Focusing on seafood, but also includes meat and poultry.
Fresh vegetable chili paste, soup, stir-fried, deep-fried, curry, we have it all.
They also have seafood noodles. The squid is real squid, the shrimp is real shrimp, and the bowls are big.
But the noodles were a bit bland.
During the meal
The staff will inform you about the activities in the package, such as what will happen and when.
We have been informed, but we are not interested in any activities.
We just came to relax and enjoy delicious food. After lunch, we went back to our room to rest.
In the afternoon, those interested in activities can go snorkeling to see the coral reefs.
We also relax, waiting for the afternoon snack time at three o'clock.
Snacks
This is not a duplicate. It depends on what menu we find.
Some days it's papaya salad, grilled chicken, laab, waterfall pork, and so on (as seen on the resort's page).
We found Vietnamese pho and Vietnamese pancakes. It was a pity that there was no papaya salad that day.
There were many sweet treats to choose from, but we forgot to take pictures of the dessert area. Oops!
Thai shaved ice with toppings can be enjoyed almost anytime.
Drinks, tea, coffee, bread, jam, milk
Unlimited drinking water and herbal water are available.
Dinner
Dinner started around 6 pm.
There are seafood, pork, beef and chicken for grilling.
We came down and sat at the table.
The main course will be served by the staff.
The menu we had that day was: deep-fried fish cakes, a whole deep-fried sea bass, and clear seafood tom yum soup.
I'm not sure if the crab was grilled or steamed, I was too busy stuffing my face to notice.
For the barbecue, we'll take a look at what we need and what we don't need.
(If you don't tell him, he'll bring everything.)
After taking a look, I returned to my table. The food will be beautifully plated and served shortly.
This section can be filled with shrimp, shellfish, squid, etc.
I'm so tired of eating at this point.
Anything is finished, please tell the staff.
Actually, I didn't finish it all. I just came in to ask when it would be done.
"Sister, would you like to add some clams? Would you like to add some squid? Would you like to add some shrimp? (I almost wanted to say, "Sister, that's enough. I can't take it anymore.")"
The staff constantly came around to collect the shrimp and crab shells that we had peeled.
The service is excellent. I must admit that they have trained their staff well.
At the end of the meal, there are desserts, sweets, and fruits, depending on the menu of the day.
We got this, I don't know what it's called, but it's delicious.
After a satisfying dinner, I'm feeling full and content. What's next, Eno? Let's see what's in store.
Food for the next day
Breakfast
There are ABF salad, seafood porridge, and kway chap.
Steamed rice, side dishes, stir-fried dishes, deep-fried dishes, and curry dishes.
The joke is, etc., etc. I can't describe it all, I can't take pictures. It's too much.
After breakfast, relax for about eleven o'clock, then come down to check out.
It's time for another lunch before going back.
Lunch
The menu is different from yesterday. On the way back, there will be Pad Thai as well.
And much more as usual
Let me tell you, they don't let us go hungry here.
I'm so stressed from eating all the time.
Let's talk about the taste.
Well, it depends on your taste buds, but I think it's delicious.
Many things are very delicious. The journey back
The boat will pick you up around 1 pm after lunch.
The staff will send customers onto the boat. There is a line of people waving goodbye, which is cute.
This is a morning customer drop-off (3 days 2 nights package).
She said she was very impressed.
The accommodation, food, and service were all very good for us.
The only downside was that we got very seasick. On the way back, the waves were rougher than on the way there.
We almost lost our breath before reaching the shore.
Due to the fact that the 2-day, 1-night package requires boarding the boat in the morning, precisely at 10:00 AM,
We don't want to leave Bangkok early in the morning, and we're also afraid of getting stuck in traffic and not making it on time.
So I chose to leave on Friday evening and found accommodation near the port for 1 night.
We stayed at Aana Lay Laem Sok. The price was 900 baht, including breakfast.
The accommodation is okay, suitable for relaxing before continuing the journey.
There is a swimming pool right in front of the room.
This is a suggestion for those who are looking for a trip like ours.
It's very close to Captain Hook's dock, you can just walk there.
And this is a review for you.
For those who might arrive in Trat at dusk like us and are hungry
I highly recommend the Inter Rice Porridge Shop. We think it's delicious.
I didn't do much research beforehand.
I just arrived in Trat and I'm very hungry.
Passing through the city center, I found this shop on the left, so I stopped by.
I don't even know the name of the shop. I read the sign after I finished eating.
It's delicious, really delicious (or maybe because I'm really hungry)
Just took a few photos. I'm so hungry, I ate everything but the bones.
Just what I managed to capture. Everything we ordered was delicious.
It might take a while, even though there aren't many people, I've been waiting for a long time.
Haha, I ate it all. I only managed to take a picture of this much.
That's all for this review post.
In conclusion, we like Captain Hook. The only thing we don't like is that it makes us gain weight.
Translation:
Oh, almost forgot to tell you, Captain Hook doesn't have a beach front.
The location is on the mountainside, so there is no beach, but there is a beach on the opposite side, just a short distance away.
You can either swim across or paddle a kayak.
There are sand dunes in front of the canal-side rooms.
You can walk across when the water is low. I saw many people walking across during low tide.
Thank you all for stopping by.
