The hotel was on top of a steep hill For anyone with mobility issues, this could be a problem. They did provide a shuttle down to the beach, which ran every 30 minutes

Very nice hotel and the best staff

Lovely hotel and the best and most helpful and welcoming staff. Cozy and quiet place even though it’s very close where everything happens. Great activities for kids too. Only minus is that there’s a lot of Russians. That’s up to you to decide wether that’s a minus. Would definitely come back.

While the hill to and from the hotel is quite steep, it is walkable. Great proximity to Kata Beach, a free shuttle option as well. Incredible staff, attentive and courteous. A few minutes walk to the main dining & nightlife streets, and to the Kata night market as well. Overall, we would recommend this property and stay again!

Relaxing week

We had a great time, the staff were friendly, the facilities were great and the breakfast buffet every morning had plenty of options. If you want to do all inclusive you would never have to leave the resort. Our three year old was in the pool everyday, the beach is just down the steep hill. (Prefered Karon than Kata personally. Food options and night market dish three hill have cheaper food if you want to explore like us. Request the more updated rooms if possible, a few things wrong or not working in our first room but they were happy to move us. We have two six month old girls so couldn't take advantage of the resort as much as we'd like. Kids five years old and up would be better.

Good breakfast spread, enjoyed stay with kids, one point to note, although it’s close to shops and restaurants, it’s on a hill and quite a steep one, so take note. Situated between both kata beach, 5-10 walk from hotel and Karon beach which is slightly further and probably best get a shuttle from hotel
