by F M Metrustry Visit Date:August 23, 2010 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "Wonderful hotel set in it s own tropical jungle, away from all the noise and tourist activity on the main street. Rooms were beautiful and so romantic with a balcony overlooking the tropical greenery. buffet breakfast was also very good. Would go back in a flash!" |
by Gerhard Pieter Smit Visit Date:May 22, 2010 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "If, like us, you are looking for an secluded escape from the crowds, while still within walking distance of everything - this is the perfect spot. Absolutely loved the natural setting & very big pool. The resort is very private as it has less rooms, but all the amenities you would expect from a bigger resort. The only downside was the lack of coffee or teamaking facilities in the rooms." |
by Bianca Adams Visit Date:May 9, 2010 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "LOCK YOUR SUITCASES! What should have been an overall pleasant stay turned sour a day after we discovered that my mom s perfume & my husbands watch was stolen from their suitcases on the day of our departure. My mom had used her perfume in the morning & the porter came to take our bags to reception. As we left the room, we noticed two female members of staff standing outside our room door. They didn t have any equipment for cleaning or lists for checking the room so that was odd. Nevertheless we went to reception to settle the bill & when the suitcases got to reception my dad realised it hadn t been locked, so did that prior to our departure. Upon arriving at the next hotel in Kho Samui my mom realised that evening that the box containing her perfume was in fact empty. So, the perfume had been taken between the time that we left the room & the bags were brought to reception. At the same time, my husband realised that his watch (which he had hidden in his suitcase had also been taken. I kept my bags locked at all times so none of my things were taken. I know that safes etc are provided in rooms but really - stealing perfume between the room and the reception area is a bit much isn t it? We now know why the staff were so interested to know where we would be travelling to next & if we were coming back to Ao Nang. We called the hotel to complain & the woman on duty promised to call us back but to this date, we ve heard nothing. That aside, we stayed in a room on the top floor and we weren t very impressed by it. Firstly, the room had a really horrible musty smell and the air conditioner did not work properly. The room was a good size but the cleaning staff didn t even pick the towels up off the floor when they did housekeeping. My parents room on the bottom floor didn t have the musty odour and their air conditioning worked a lot better than the one in our room. The restuarant food was great (we at there on our first night) and I can highly recommend it. Breakfast spread not great & got a little boring after 3 days. The staff weren t overly friendly or particularly helpful. The hotel is located along the main road in Ao Nang but you don t hear any of the noise and it has a certain jungle feel to it which was nice. Overall, an ok experience brought down to a really bad one having had our valuables stolen. I would not recommend this hotel based on the fact that you have to keep your suitcase locked 24/7. You are on holiday after all. There are loads of hotels along Ao Nang road so I would check those out first before trying Somkiet Buri Resort. The Spa at the hotel is also much more expensive that what is offered in Ao Nang itself." |

And the shower is made for verry short people.Breakfast ok.BUT the biggest problem in this place is the stuff. They are just terrible! The receptionist is verry unfriendly and not att all accommodating!:-(All of the stuff nead to go a lesson (or several!) to be more service minded.Its verry sad that the stuff is so bad, the resort deserve more....We will NOT recomende this place beacuse of the bad attitude from the stuff. Warning!" |
Everything worked perfectly., March 25, 2010 by Sirpa Nurmi-Leinonen Visit Date:March 15, 2010 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "We enjoyed our stay in Somkiet Buri.The location was in the center but we felt like we lived in the jungle because of very nice garden. The swimming pool area was perfect.Only one minus: The lady in the reception wasn t as nice as the thai people usually are..." |
by Alison Thomas Visit Date:March 9, 2010 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "Lovely site away from the noise of Ao Nang. Bliss. Very lush with nice pool and deck although no much room on the deck for all guests. We were in a superior room which was beautiful, large but not much storage space. Large bathroom but shower designed for short people who like showering in the dark. Restaurant looked nice but we ate outside. All in all enjoyed the tranquility of the site." |

by Malin Jonsson Visit Date:January 5, 2010 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "Though centrally located in Ao Nang, the hotel is surrounded by green trees and isolated from the busy streets making it very peaceful and harmonic. The restaurant looks nice, but unfortunately does not impress with the food. Much better meals can be found in the local restaurant around." |
