"The view from the 4th floor of the ocean was spectacular. The pool and private beach access was fantastic. All staff were attentive and welcoming. The food although a bit pricey was excellent. The only con would be that the resort is away from town. We managed to walk thigh high around the rocks to Lamai Beach but you would need a taxi to Chaweng. The resort does offer a free shuttle twice a day to Lamai and Chaweng."
