This is a very special y property - we loved our stay! Our driver dropped us at Phutakien Pier and the long tail boat was already there, they are transferring guests to the resort regularly in the afternoon . Lots of free drinks and food in fridge. Nice restaurant. No mosquitoes in December. Nice pool at sister resort 5 mins walk away - you can return for free to the float house from the pier. Beutiful room and was very quiet. Reasonably priced massages.

Beautiful resort - don’t miss it!

A truly fantastic place. A wonderful setting, with excellent rooms and so, so relaxing. Great spa facilities and such lovely staff across the resort. Catering for so many people meant some of the dishes were slightly westernised, but totally understandable. Would 100% recommend this place. Also, some genuine commitments to sustainability which is fantastic as without nature, this place wouldn’t exist.
