Hat Samran Holidays from NZ$2,663

We requested our luggage be pick up from the arrival pier. Our request was completely ignored, and were given zero instructions on how to make this happen. These should be given out long before your arrival. Shouldn't even have to request them. Unless you enjoy dragging your bags through sand through the blistering heat. Over all the units are nice, clean and cool. Pools are surrounded by tons of plants and trees, beautiful vintage vibe. We spent our last hours in the pool watching two family's of monkeys, hang out, drink, and wrestle. Very cool. Breakfast buffet was just ok. Lots of unheated/cold food. Best to stick to fresh made fried eggs and omelets. Enjoy visiting the all the shops and restaurants on the main walking street, but don't ignore the eastern shoreline where you arrived. Lots more to see there, also a lot less busy!

Had a lovely relaxing time, beach in the morning and pool in the afternoons.

Good value for the money. Location is ok. Close to markets, and other food options like carts and restaurants. 7/11 next door. Short walk to the pier where you can take a longboat to Railay Beach or a tour through the mangroves. Meets basic needs of a hotel, but nothing luxurious. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Free coffee (instant) and fresh local fruit was put out each morning… that was a nice touch.
