We really don’t care, you are just some suckers who are staying for 3 nights u0026 will never come back again - that’s the consistent message we got.
- Our 9-month-old baby got over 30 bites overnight in the baby cot they provided. The uniform answer from reception to management office was basically 'can’t help, no idea, never seen them before'. Maybe mosquito bites (no, looked completely different u0026 we had mosquito net over the cot in any case. u0026 what sort of mosquito would leave 20 bites on one little baby arm overnight?), allergic reaction to the sea (then why only on the arms u0026 face but not the legs which were actually in the water?) No, can’t possibly be bed bugs! No idea. Why don't you go to the pharmacy yourself?
- We have travelled with our baby to 5 countries in the past few months, and as a reasonably well-presented young professional couple with a cute baby, we've had great experiences until now. Normally hotels would be extra informative and helpful to us, which we greatly appreciate. Not here, all service staff look annoyed when you ask even the most basic question or the smallest favour (such as bringing an extra small bowl), screwing up their eyebrows like you are greatly inconveniencing them, then bark a non-answer back at you. A taxi to the airport for 2 people? 1600 baht! (But the market rate is 800-1000?). Tuktuk, small taxi, 8 seater minivan are all the same price, 1200 baht for 2 people u don’t like the price then go get a taxi yourself! (So we did, for 1000 baht without bargaining). A 5 minute drive to the Karon view point? That’s 600 baht. Unreasonable? What do we care? We'll never see you again anyway.
- Food was ok but nothing to write home about. The Boathouse next door had way better food at similar price and much better service
- p.s. the view over the sea is actually pretty good. Unfortunately it’s also a bit of disaster if you have a small baby with you, since the loud music, drunken singing u0026 fireworks won’t stop till midnight.
