킹 이벨톤 비치 호텔 & 리조트

We stayed at King Evelthon for one week on the all inclusive plan and found it to be very good value. The food was excellent every day. It was fresh, varied, and the pastry chef’s desserts were a real highlight. The main issue we had was with the room type advertised on Agoda. We booked a Standard Room with Sea View, but the room we received had an inland view instead. This seems to be a known issue online, and it was disappointing to find that the description does not match the room you actually get. When we raised it at reception, both staff members we spoke to told us to contact Agoda, even though Agoda had already confirmed that the hotel is responsible for correcting the room allocation. I asked them to speak with a manager and once they did, the problem was resolved and we were moved to the correct room. After that, the staff were warm, friendly, and helpful throughout our stay. The hotel itself is comfortable but does not feel like a true 5 star. It meets the basic requirements but the overall feel is closer to a good 4 star. During the week I joked that it felt a bit like what you might expect if a budget airline decided to run a five star resort. The WiFi was the biggest frustration. I had a few work days during the trip and the internet was so unreliable that I had to use my mobile hotspot instead. Anyone needing stable internet should be aware of this. The location is fine if you have a car. Without one, it may feel a bit far from town and not very walkable. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The food was fantastic, the staff were lovely once the room issue reached management, and the value for money was strong. Better WiFi, a more luxurious feel that truly matches a 5 star rating, and more accurate room listings would make a real difference.
