Hello, today I have a short review of another accommodation option, located in Phuket province. However, this accommodation is not located on the island of Phuket, but on the island of Koh Maphrao.
To reach Coconut Island, you must take a boat from Laem Hin Pier on the Phuket coast. The boat ride is short, taking only 5-10 minutes. The hotel provides a waiting area for guests before boarding, though the name escapes me at the moment. Upon presenting your booking confirmation, you will receive a boat ticket and wait for a shuttle to take you to the pier. The hotel offers a comfortable waiting area with refreshments available for purchase. The hotel's price is reasonable.
Upon arrival, the boat will dock at the pier in front of the accommodation.
The image below shows a beachfront room. I didn't stay there, but it looks beautiful. The only downside is that the resort's sea is not very clear. The water color is rather cloudy, partly because it is a sandy mud area in front of the beach.
Upon checking in at the lobby, I was greeted with a refreshing pineapple welcome drink. The drink was a delightful blend of sweet and tart flavors, perfectly quenching my thirst.
The view from the lobby overlooks the hotel's swimming pool and restaurant.
This review will be brief as I didn't take many photos during my visit. However, I must say that the Italian buffet lunch at the restaurant was excellent. The steak, in particular, was the best I've had at a hotel buffet in the hundred-dollar price range. It was all-you-can-eat and incredibly delicious. The price was 700++ per person, but I received a 20% discount for being a hotel guest. If you're staying at the hotel and enjoy meat, don't miss the lunch buffet.
The last thing I want to introduce is the room I stayed in. I stayed in a regular pool villa, which is the cheapest room in the resort. Haha! I'll post a bunch of pictures and explain them all at once.
The entrance to the room leads to the living room, which features a sofa, a TV, and a marble counter that serves as a kitchen area. The kitchen is equipped with an electric stove, a refrigerator, and a coffee machine. Coffee is also provided.
Kitchen equipment is also available. 555
The next room you enter will be a bedroom.
The bedroom will have a small dressing table for ladies to apply makeup.
The view from the bed is of the room's swimming pool.
The most exciting feature, which is both a highlight and a drawback, is that the bathroom in this room is located above the headboard. 555+ There is no door to close it, so if you are staying with friends, it could be a bit awkward. From the photos, it appears to be above the headboard. 55+
In conclusion, I purchased this accommodation as a package with a diving tour to Surin Islands for 10,000 baht for two people, which is only 5,000 baht per person. I must admit that it was worth it, considering the quality of the accommodation and the one-day diving tour included.
The disadvantage of staying here is that you have to take a boat to the other side. If you want to go diving, you have to leave earlier than other accommodations because you have to take a boat to the pier and then take a car to the diving spot. If you want to go sightseeing in Phuket, you also have to take a boat out.
Here is the translation of the provided text:
"This place is truly perfect for a secluded getaway to enjoy the sea. While the water may not be the most stunning, the tranquility and convenience are unbeatable."
I will have the opportunity to recommend accommodation again.
