    We had to move the pool bedchairs away from the pool to a shaded area behind our room because there are no umbrellas. That’s a bit silly I’d say.

    Nice room, well-equipped and clean. The shower was hot and powerful and the bed was big and comfortable. Air con and fan did a great job. Nice size pool Friendly staff

    No Tea and coffee available in the rooms. A drink menu maybe offered at dinner , we were fine but a suggestion.

    Amazingly clean large modern hotel. A real quite peaceful spot. Dinner and breakfast were offered as its 2km to town and 2 km to the beach. A luxury feel resort without the huge price. Big pool, white fluffy towels, enormous bed. The assistant manger was always around to help. Great oasis on a travellers list.

    The hotel is designed beautifully and rooms are spacious and light and extremely comfortable. The hotel was well maintained and kept clean, with a lovely swimming pool and very little surrounding it but palm trees and open space. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful, and while there was some confusion over the location, it’s only a short tuktuk drive or taxi away from the beach and offers excellent value for money and tranquility. Without the prices of a beach front resort. Breakfast was also very good. We would happily have stayed for longer!

    - Location a bit far from beaches and city centre - Could be cleaner its a pity in such a beautiful hotel - During the night we could hear the noise of mices( we told the staff and they change us the room)

    - Great Western breakfast - Nice and big bedrooms and beautiful place - Calm place - Swimming pool ( although too hot and can find mosquitos)

    Unfortunately the location of KayJay palms is not correct on google maps/Apple Maps and booking. We expected that the accomodation is 300m away from the beach but it is not. However, the crew is super friendly and we were able to change to KayJay Beachhouse. We really liked it there.

    First, the direction and the description (300m away from the beach) weren't correct. When we complained about the long distance to the beach, they offered us a driver for free. The room seemed not to have been cleaned for weeks. There was dust everywhere on the facilities and the blankets of the bed were also dirty. After complaining they changed the bed linen. There was also dry shit of a mouse in the bathroom and we could hear the mouse moving every night. The breakfast was ok. In general, it is sad because the hotel is actually nice and they could have made more out of it.

    It is a nice hotel with a big pool and lots of palm trees in quiet area. Puvi, one of the employees, who served us the breakfast, was very friendly and polite. The room and the bathroom are very big.
