    Located at hill so you need to put bit effort to commute between hotel reception and room though buggy service is available.

    Very good property. Well maintained and very beautiful view from the balcony. Located close to market area (5-10 mins walk).

    The a/c was noisy, the hotel is rather old in general. Also, there was no hygienic shower by the toilet, which is not common for Thai hotels

    The staff was very welcoming, the rooms were clean, the pool was big enough (and you can always take pool towels for free on the reception), and I liked that there was a free transfer from the hotel to the beach and back every hour (9am-5pm)

    Be prepared to walk up and down a LOT of steep stairs. It is built on a mountainside. They do have a buggy to transport you to/from the room, but they will not if it is raining - understandable, as it is very steep, but also means you can become somewhat limited. If you have difficulty walking or cannot at all, I am not sure how accessible this resort would be. You could request a room closer to the lobby, but the driveway is still very steep and slippery in the rain. The restaurant is expensive compared to the rest of the town. 350 baht per person for breakfast buffet and about 300 baht per main meal for dinner. The buffet has a very good range (eggs, stir-fries, fried potatoes, toast, pastries, fresh fruit and salad, cereal) but lacks non-dairy, no-egg range. We ate a lot of toast and fruit! As most places in town don't open until 9-10am, we found it easier to eat at the resort, but wish they had alternatives for dietary requs ie soy milk for coffees and cereals. Other services through the resort are also very expensive, like laundry and massage. I booked a massage before realising that they cost 4x more than places in town, but I couldn't cancel as they said the resort already paid for the service. The massage itself was great, but over priced.

    The view is amazing, the location is out of the hustle of the main street but close enough to walk down yourself. They also offer a free bus to the beach every hour 9-5. The infinity pool is gorgeous and clean with a bar. Gym is well kept with decent equipment. Room was huge (king deluxe I think?) with great water pressure and temperature control. Staff were all fantastic and helpful.

    The resort is on a hill top and the rooms are also on steep from the reception, however there are pick up and drop services from your rooms up and down.

    This resort is the best getaway you can ask for. It has everything inside it and an amazing roof top pool for some instagramable photos! The staff are very sweet, always ready to help and always smiling, just making your stay even more special! The services are just top notch!!

    We ended up right next to the pool which played music most of the day. This was audible in our room which I didn't like. The elevator was also broken which led to a lot of stairs every time we went up to our room.

    The breakfast buffet was great. Our room was also quite large and had everything we needed. I got food poisoning partway through our stay and the staff was very helpful. We also got a great deal and enjoyed time at the pool.

    It is located on a hill, so you have to be prepared to go up and down the stairs regularly. Therefore, free electric cars can be called to cross the hotel grounds.

    Clean rooms. Great view. Very friendly staff. Free shuttles to Karon beach.

    Just a little things. Food in the restaurant could be better. We got a room in building 8 which is very high and to get there we had to ask their friendly stuff to drive us there with a small electric cars. That was not a big issue but I would prefer rooms in the lower buildings. Jacuzzi on the balcony does not help. I recommend rooms in lower buildings e.g. in building No. 2

    Nicely located swimming pool. Good size of the rooms. They have a small electric cars to help us to get to the highest building. Fiendly and helpfull people working there. +++ Without this little cars we would be very dissapointed as this steps would kill us.

    The hot water was never "hot" and would run out after about 2 minutes. Not really an issue during the heat of the day but could be a bit chilly early in the morning.

    The view was incredible. Due to the fact we were right up the top we were able to request a golf cart to get picked up or dropped off. The staff were always prompt and friendly.
