We stayed at this resort as a couple from August 8th to August 13th. We were warmly welcomed by Martin, the owner, and his wife. We were offered a free two-day upgrade, but we declined because the proposed room wasn't private enough for us, being on the ground floor with large windows overlooking the pool. We therefore opted for the room we booked on ***********. The overall impression is of a beautiful, well-maintained property, but upon experiencing it, you discover some imperfections, which are nevertheless crucial. I've attached photos to illustrate everything I'm talking about. The first thing we noticed was the lack of a bathroom door, and also of an extractor fan that could have helped with the fumes. More specifically, the room is an open space with a shower area, a tub in the center of the room, a sink area, and a toilet area located in a corner of the room with a glass separating the areas, but no door. This shortcoming forced us to go to the balcony when the other person needed to go to the bathroom. Furthermore, since breakfast is delivered to your room in the morning, if your breakfast time coincided with it, you had to wait because if they had knocked, we would all have found ourselves in the bathroom together... Another serious shortcoming is the lack of blackout curtains... We noticed that they are missing from almost all the rooms. We raised the issue with the owner, who simply stated that "some people like and some don't like the light in the morning," but I think a 4-star property should give you the option of sleeping in the dark or not, like in all the properties I've stayed at so far. Another thing: there was only one bedside table and nowhere to put your suitcase, so we had to open our suitcases on the floor. Another flaw is the proximity to the main road in Koh Samui. The door to our room was located no more than 5 meters from the road, so the noise in the room was really bad. In conclusion, everything I've written is negative, while the positives are: the kindness of the staff, the delicious breakfast, and the proximity to the most beautiful beaches in Koh Samui. Overall, the resort is beautiful, but it needs renovations, as there are clearly visible leaks in the ceilings, for example, and some interior and exterior furnishings need replacing. In conclusion, if you book early, you'll find better.
