Lovely apartments
Great location out of town.
8.3
The resort is about 10 minutes out of the main resort of Kamala but the resort runs regular shuttle buses each way so it's not a problem and actually nice to be up in the hills and bit.
The apartments in the resort are very nice, clean and bright.
Didn't use the tennis or squash courts but the pool area was good.
The restaurant on site closes at 8pm so you if you are not in the mood to go out get food before then. We got food and kept it in the fridge in the room and microwaved it when we were ready.
Kamala itself was better the expected, a festival was on in the park with loads of great food and music. Think it happens a couple of times a year so check the local info.

Nice hotel, albeit remote
Nice, modern, spacious rooms

Hotel seems more like a studio apartment unit in an upscale development. There are actually some blocks where residents actually stay there for an extended period of time.
Getting to the hotel is very tricky, it is off the main road, and some distance in. Make sure to have the hotel number handy so that your taxi driver can call them for direction.
A regular shuttle service takes you to the beach and back.

Big rooms but slightly out of the way
5
We had a studio with no view, so I can't comment on that.
The room was very large but it wasn't too clean as the sheets had some small stains and there were a lot of ants/bugs that were spotted. The breakfast wasn't the greatest either, very limited selection from the cafe. There is a very frequent shuttle bus that goes to Kamala Beach and back and it is well needed as walking to the beach will take a good 20+ minutes. We did encounter a problem with a tuk tuk driver who would not go up the hill, he wanted to charge an extra 100 to drive up it only and out of principle we said no and were forced to walk up the hill ourselves. The pool looked quite nice but we didn't use it.

Luxurious and stylish but affordable resort
9
I had booked per accident the wrong date and the staff put everything in work to make our stay nonetheless possible. They were very helpfull. A lovely pool and extra facilities like tennis and squash. Relaxed atmosphere. Very recommended!
Hotel Feature Tip:
It's easier to come with a motorbike because the hotel and bungalows are located on a very steep hill.

Excellent self catering option for a relaxing stay
Green location, great rooms
8.3
Was impressed by size of rooms (comes with a kitchenette). Obviously a new build for there was still evidence of builders rubbish. For a week or two's stay in a really relasing place, you'd be hard pushed to find better. Do hire a car to get around and buy the groceries for once stocked, you wouldn't have to leave your room except for more food and drink or to take a dip in one of two pools.
Don't rely on the hotel breakfast - its not what they do best. Cook your own.
Staff are friendly and helpful.
Travel tip:
A getaway place. A short drive away, Kamala ha many good restaurants either roadside or on the beach.

Location of hotel is good for traveller who having a car. Not easy to find and goo but you will definately love it with room clean, great service and hill location. I will find time to go back for my personal trip and spend more time at hotel.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
drive 5 km to patong, takes 10-15 mins for up and down hill. have restuarant along the way.
