This hotel is clean and quiet but secluded and a bit far from the beaches. If I had a car or a motorcycle I would enjoy it and Copenhagen more.

Management very unflexible and border line: When arrived where given 2 options: 1 night for 1400 bahts or 3 nights for 1200 bahts per night or even less if we opted for a lower level room the next day upon agreement. We opted for the 3 nights but did not decide immediately what room category we would take for night 2 & 3. Where asked to pay immediately for 1400 but where not reinbursed of the excess payment when decided to stay in the agreed 1200 baht/day room.Access to the sea: impossible to snorkle as the sea is with too shalow water on this beach. Rather choose the north of the island.
