    The gym like at other resorts is laking but hey you’re on Holiday so just chill out 😁.

    The rooms were Bungalow style. They were very private, quiet and relaxing.

    Mixed Experience, Ended Well

    Initially, my stay at Banana Fan Sea Resort got off to a rocky start when I was assigned what seemed to be the least desirable room. However, after a polite inquiry, the staff swiftly upgraded me to a much nicer accommodation, which I greatly appreciated. Unfortunately, there were further hiccups when the locker in my room failed to work properly. It took two attempts by the maintenance team to resolve the issue, which was a bit inconvenient. Despite these challenges, I must commend the hotel staff for their prompt attention to my concerns and their efforts to rectify the situation. Once everything was sorted, the remainder of my stay was pleasant. The room was comfortable, and the amenities were satisfactory. Overall, while there were some bumps along the way, the attentive service and eventual resolution of issues left a positive impression. With a few improvements in maintenance efficiency, Banana Fan Sea Resort has the potential to provide a more seamless experience for guests.

    The best beach location in front of the resort. Very good service provided. Nice quiet location at Chaweng beach near restaurants. I hope to return one day. Thank you so much.

    The pool area is beautiful. I would have to say there aren’t enough sun beds probably, but if you get there early you’ll get one. The room is amazing and super comfortable and clean. The entire hotel is beautiful and relaxing.

    The location is great, being not far from town centre yet being a bit off and quieter. The beach access is superb, great place for dinner and sundowner as well. Staff is very helpful and attentive, drinks and food taste very good. If there is any downside, then that the beautiful bungalows are very close to each other, also with the window fronts facing each other, which limits the privacy feeling quite a bit.

    The wall between our room and the neighbours was a bit thin so we could occasionally hear them talking when we tried to sleep.

    Beach is super clean and fantastic. Breakfast was superb. Staff are are incredibly friendly.

    nothing, everything was perfect

    very nice quiet resort, 2-bedroom villa with a roofdeck is top because you can enjoy the view of the sea and don’t have to worry about the place by the pool because you are right next to it, very nice pool, nice beach for jumping into the waves, we had 2 days of big waves and you had to be very cautious, there is no place for snorkelling on Chaweng beach, very nice staff, very good food but quite expensive comparing to other restaurants out of hotel on the main street

    The only thing that could be better I would say is the gym but only if you go everyday.

    This resort is defo a 5 star not a 4 Star. The staff are lovely and always going to the extra mile. The room and bed was very comfy and sun loungers and pool was spot on with an amazing view of the beach. The restaurant served amazing food me and boyfriend ate both lunch’s and it was spot on. Close to all restaurants and shops.

    There are zero comfortable places to hang out all day (other than your room) if you don’t get up at 6:45am and claim a beach chair under an umbrella. Was fine for 2 of us but would be very challenging for families and groups. They could benefit from some loungers and couches in shady spots throughout their gardens.

    Gorgeous, luxurious grounds on an amazing beach. Friendly staff go above and beyond.
