I liked it, the room was very nice and comfortable, and the garden & grounds were nice. I paid a LOT - $400/n for the room though and I don’t think it was worth it. Deluxe garden rooms are right next to a night club with drum & bass blaring until 2am - so keep that in mind. Next time I think I’ll stay in Ban’s hotel which has a very nice pool away from nightclub. Breakfast is crazy between 9-10, go early if you want to relax.

You can get a free transfer to and from the pier which is super helpful. The hotel is massive and the restaurant breakfast/ food was really nice. It is in a great Location and there is lots to do round it. The hotel restaurant also has entertainment in the evening and the bands were really great. The views are in incredible from the pool near the gym. No pressure if you don’t want to do the diving.

Well the grounds are really exceptional. What a view from our hilltop room! Watch out for the mosquitoes. Lots of food options. We had some good dives, especially Sail Rock. I recommend a scooter rental if you stay up on the hill. We had a hard time Rea hing the operator and the folf art shuttle at times

Great location and breakfast!

We booked the hilltop view and it was an amazing view of the ocean with a balcony! It was a little bit of a walk up hill every night but it was a great price for the location, view and size of the room. Breakfast was amazing as well. Right on the water with good views and lots of food options. Very central on Sairee Beach.

Sommes-nous toujours au pays du sourire?

C’est dommage, sur un séjour de 40 jours en Thaïlande, c’est le seul hôtel où les employés semblent tellement désabusés… on ne réussit pas à avoir un sourire… voir même ils nous ignorent quand on les salut. Le resto déjeuner, délicieux, vue magnifiques mais ambiance gâchée par l’attitude du personnel, on semble les déranger et on n’a pas été habitué à ce genre d’accueil froid en Thailande.

The hotel is so nice! A great reception area and the hotel restaurant right on the beach. The room was very clean, comfortable and relaxing. The complimentary breakfast buffet with the room was very tasty with good selection. The beach in front of the hotel and the multiple pool areas are great! I would love to stay at Ban’s again!

Bans Diving Resort

We had a room up high on the other side of the road. We had a beautiful view and the gardens were beautiful. We were far away from the crowds and parties. Quite a walk up and the guys with the golf carts seemed to be very inconvenienced if you asked for a ride up. The breakfast was good except the coffee it was instant. If you are not going there to learn to dive or dive I wouldn’t stay.
