Resort on it’s own is good: nice service, beautiful lay out, nice food. Huge downside: it is so far away from everything that you are fully dependent on heavily overpriced hotel services to get around. (5000 baht per person for a trip to waterfalls)Rooms might be cheap but the costs of getting there by taxi (one way 800-1000 baht) and back, incl some trips makes this not a good deal and I would not recommend.
