The resort has some newer and some older rooms. We stayed in an older room and our experience was not great. I think they need maintenance on some things, for example the bathroom...the drain was blocked, we informed reception about the problem and they said they would fix it but the other days the problem remained the same, the toilet wasn't working very well either. We had to flush it several times for it to work. After the check in , we put poison in the room because there were a lot of mosquitoes (I understand this part because the rooms are in the middle of nature), but when we returned to the room we found some cockroaches that died when we used the poison. The room cleaning was not the best. The staff were attentive and receptive, breakfast with a lot of variety. Considering the hotel category, I expected more, the amount we paid was not worth what we received.

I've been staying at Sand Sea since my first visit in 1999. Great location. Muslim owned, so no bacon for breakfast or alcohol served in their restaurant. Their right, so no complaint, but I dined elsewhere - hence 4 stars.

Great beach
We had a lovely stay. The beach is beautiful, if a bit busy with taxi and tour boats but that makes it convenient to get to other places. The airport transfer was well worth the cost and went smoothly. Our room was very spacious and comfortable. Could probably do with a bathroom upgrade. All in all a very nice place to stay.

Great Stay
It is an amazing hotel and very clean. The service is great, they give 4 bottles of water everyday. The breakfast was really nice. They offer shared and private shuttle service to the pier and airport. The private shuttles are bit expensive. The shared are the same price as local taxi's.

Sand Sea Resort stretches from the west harbour to the east with well designed, planted and cared for vegetation from flowers to large monkey inhabited trees and palms. Cabins with covered porches are mixed with larger 2-level buildings of rooms with covered balconies and open stairs that don’t interfere with the gardens. Reception is welcoming in a comfortable shaded space on the water. Rooms are corner glazed and bathtub opens to bedroom through sliding glass doors. Bed is very comfortable. Appears they have a hard water problem by the appearance of the shower set, leaking bathtub valves, and toilet float trouble that was partially repaired while we were there. Other built areas could receive more maintenance to rise to the level of the landscaping. Poor wifi. Many staff members seem indifferent to by creating a visitor experience, Zero, of the restaurant staff is a standout. He can be seen clearing tables quickly without being noticed and is quick to attend to guests’ needs. His English is the best we’ve encountered after being in Thailand for two weeks and with it he gave us confidence in approaching severe allergy problems at the buffet.
