The staff were very polite and professional and the breakfast was excellent. It is an attractive resort with good attention to detail around the pleasant grounds.

The restaurant was a bit pricey - they charged me 120 baht for a small bottle of Heineken on the first day - when I queried this (the normal price elsewhere on the island is 70 baht) I was told 'yes, it is more expensive on an island', which was nonsense.....so we didn't go there again except for breakfast.

The location. On the bay, wonderful view. The sea view villa was just that, a villa right on the beach. Huge room and bathroom, nice shower, big bathtub, wooden floors and a big terrace. The resort is past it’s prime but that’s part of the charm. To get anywhere you better get a motorbike, although there is a shuttle service to Klong Son village and White Sand Beach. We could sleep without ac because the windows had screens.

The mattresses. A concrete bench would have been more comfortable.

Staff were very helpful and friendly. Always smiling. The natural surroundings are very natural - feels like you’re on a remote island. Room was comfortable and had all the expected amenities from a 4 star resort, and had a great panoramic view over the gardens and bay.

No breakfast buffet - understandable since it was the low season, but the fresh cooked food was delicious. They are a bit off the beaten path, but they provide a free shuttle to town with convenience stores and a few restaurants. Can’t really walk on your own though - the streets were a bit confusing for us.

Staff were very helpful, good pool,food good Rooms were on a hilly location, but very nice and comfortable.

It was good for a short stay, if you wanted to stay for a week or more, be prepared to travel for your entertainment and restaurants as the accommodation is up a windy road into a remote area, taxi cost 300 thb goes up after 10pm.

Room: Both me and my company lived in deluxe twin rooms. The rooms held a good standard with comfortable beds, big TV, balcony and effective air condition. They also had insect screens covering the balcony doorway, which made it possible to get a draft through the room in addition to the air condition. The staff and service: Everyone we met was really helpful and very friendly. They helped us with evrything we needed and offered great service from check-in to check-out. They picked us up by the ferry, and helped with the luggage. The Aiyapura also offered complimentary services, like rides to the local market every hour and shuttle buses thrice a day to White Sand Beach. Food and drinks: The breakfast buffet was rich and offered both traditional thai cousine and some more traditional western alternatives like pancakes, eggs, cereal etc. Everything was really tasty and they changed the courses from day to day, so you get to try many amazing dishes. The restaurant was great as well, also serving both thai and western food to soothe everyone's needs, and theyoffered a great variety of non-alcoholic drinks as well as the regular coctails. A big thumb up for the pool bar. Fascilities: There were lots of areas and zones, and the whole of the facilities felt like a small village. The pool was comfortable with available toys and an open pool bar. The beaches were a bit small, but the overall area worked well as a nice place to swim, sunbathe and also get some gazebo shade. We rented SUP, and tried the game room for activities. The game room was ok, but the air hockey table needs an update. Unfortunately we never got around to try the fitness room. Addition: For the animal lover the peacocks also were a really nice touch to the whole stay, but be prepared for some sporadic peacock shouting matches. We found it fun and cute, but some might find it a bit noisy.

The only drawback is the location and that the in-area beaches are a bit small. But as they offer free shuttle buses to White Sand Beach, it's really easy to get to nicer beaches.

Location- very good, out the way of the busy areas. Restaurant good It had all the facilities required Staff excellent Quiet Good internet Good gym Good value for money

Areas run down - but could be easily fixed. Bit of paint, bathroom renovation. Everything was functional but needed a bit of TLC. No real beach to talk of. I all felt passed it prime.

We liked the private beaches, the view and having a variety of foods for breakfast, it was wonderful!

Our second visit, we were made so welcome on our return and upgraded to a beautiful property with beautiful views. The view is breathtaking and tranquil, the restaurant is lovely and food is good, maybe a little pricey, the breakfast is great plenty to choose from. It was a joy to see the owners son Aiy we get along well he has a lot of tales to tell, which we shared over dinner and a drink. We will be back soon,

The restaurant closes early, and maybe some nice music would liven the atmosphere 🤔😊

The food, view, kayaking, room, all were great The reception staff were very helpful with helping us see the island. Great breakfast

Our bath in our room had green markings on it, not taken care of to be clean. It was a disappointment that it wasnt clean because we booked the villa for the bath so we ended up not using it. If there was slightly more care in cleaning the rooms i would be happier. The restaurant had two waiters who were very pushy to try and make us order more even though we werent interested and politely declined. I would advise to not be this assertive as it made us feel almost scammed. We wanted peace in our dinner time.

The staff was friendly and accommodating. The rooms were clean with many amenities. There's golf carts to pick you up and take you around the property if you like. There's a nice gym. The food tastes great, beautiful breakfast buffet. There's small beaches on the property that were nice to relax on, but they should rake them to get rid of sticks and things that wash up. Nice pool area and peacocks that wander the property are fun to see. Our room was huge with a huge deck that was in front of the water. Our bed was so hard and hurt our backs; we asked if they could do anything and they changed our mattress to softer one, that was amazing service. Some places around the property look a little tired but staff tries hard to give everyone a nice stay. Free shuttle service to white sand beach & to the market many times a day.

The beach should be raked sometimes to get rid of sticks, stuff that washed up. Pillows would be nice for the outdoor loungers on the villa porches
