쉐라톤 후아힌 쁘란부리 빌라

Pros: The staff and room design were lovely. I especially loved the private pool and the outdoor shower. Cons: The biggest issue was the mosquitoes. We were bitten so many times that we had to wake up in the middle of the night on the second day. The bed has a mosquito net BUT it was quite dusty - my face felt itchy right after untying it, so I decided not to use it. The hotel is also not directly connected to the beach, so do not expect a tranquil, private beach walk. The common pool also appears much smaller than it does in the photos, and since it overlooks the road, you can see cars and people passing by, which leaves you with very little privacy. Lastly, if you are a hotel member, be sure to ask the staff for specific details regarding your benefits. Upon check-in, I was told I would receive a 10% discount on hotel facilities, including food and drinks. Yet, they failed to mention that this does not apply to room service, so I was unable to get the discount. Overall, the hotel feels a bit overpriced. The lack of a direct beach connection and the absence of any beach views from inside the hotel were major disappointments.

The property is older so the rooms/villas are huge which is great with kids. Breakfast was really good and they rotated street food vendors as an extra each day. The beach opposite the hotel isn’t accessible but you can walk along the promenade. There’s a daily street food market outside the hotel. Our only disappointment was being hit with an expensive additional daily fee charge for my son, even though we were sharing a bed. This wasn’t made clear in the booking. The pool is nice though only a few sun loungers.

Well the service is brilliant from all staff. Food is good. But however the private villa we stayed was pretty old and somewhat need refurbished.

This hotel is absolutely wonderful. It’s off the beaten track so more suited to sedentary types but there are shuttle services to take you to the centre of town. The villas are beautifully decked out and the food in both restaurants is second to none. The jewel in the crown of this hotel is its excellent staff who are just so, so, so good, we don’t have words for a justifiable description! A return visit is on the cards before the end of the year and we can’t recommend this place highly enough.
