Oh wonderful Pimalai. We had our best holiday here so far. The staff is extremely courteous and always strives to implement the wishes of their guests. There are two beautiful pools that are freely accessible to all guests with a great view of the sea. The rooms are nice and well maintained even in the rainy season. Unfortunately there isn't much in the area, but others would see that as a plus.We will most likely come back. Thank you very much for the great stay.

The Pimalai is a wonderful hotel. Beautiful location away from the nearby town embedded in the nature. The restaurants were really good and the service in the beach restaurant was wonderful.The downside is that to move around the hotel facilities you need to order a golf buggy to bring you from the top-hill side to the beach part depending where you want to go. We asked reception to rent us a motorcycle or call a taxi for us to reach the town but they told us that was not possible and so we had to pay the hotel for a taxi to reach the town where then we booked a taxi for the sightseeing trip we wanted to do. That was not a great service.

Once again we had the "unfortunate" of having bad weather during our stay..... But still the "passion" that brings us to this hotel is unique, almost familiar, and unquestionable, and we are fine here under any circumstances. …

We visited for 5 nights in May. Arrival was stunning via speedboat and first impressions were very good. The views really are beautiful especially from the infinity pool. …

Very nice hotel and great service. A small part of the complex (e.g. the pool near the lobby) is a bit old, but the majority is very nice. The restaurants/bars are very chic and modern, and the staff is always extremely attentive and courteous.Long story short: we will probably come back!

under… Can ratings be manipulated?It's uncomfortable, unfriendly, and full of cockroaches.I had high expectations, but I was really disappointed. And I felt really bad, especially at the breakfast restaurant, where they were so unfriendly and full of mistakes. I saw them being treated differently from Westerners for two whole days.
