Booked five nights at Green Papaya Resort after a recommendation from a friend - and it was entirely worth it.
Pros:
- Staff was very welcoming and curteious throughout our stay. Even when there was a bit of a language barrier between us, they always tried to help.
- Room: the room was awesome. It was very spacious , and also clean and tidy.
- The resort has direct access to a beautiful beach, as well as a large pool. you can go for a swim/go snorkeling or just hang out in the sun :)
- Quiet surrounding. In my opinion, one of the resort's greatest virtues. You can just relax...
- If you wish to engage in some leisure activities such as a snorkeling/diving trip or other, the Salad Beach Booking Center is a couple of minutes walk from the resort and you can get it there (including a pickup from the resort)
Cons:
- Price: not the cheapest, but then again, the same goes for all the other resorts on Salad Beach. All I can personally say is that it is worth the price.
- If you plan most of your activities away from the resort, consider renting a scooter for the duration of your stay (not to worry, there is a rental place nearby). Otherwise you'll probably need to spend a couple of hundred bahts per person for a taxi in each direction.
After a week stay there, I join my friend in giving the Green Papaya Resort a warm recommendation.
