A wonderful hotel with very friendly staff, they were greeted very good-naturedly, and in general people are kind, sweet and very very friendly, in Russian, unlike the nearby Phuket, no one speaks and understands nothing, but they are fluent in English and perfectly understand sign language !! ! on the territory of the hotel there is a private beach about 50 meters long and 8 sun loungers, usually there are very few people, it is quiet and pleasant, the bottom is with a lot of corals, it is better not to step without slippers, and the depth on the private beach is very small, to feel the depth you need to go about 20 meters, at low tide the water is not visible from the shore. There is also the main large beach, the depth appears there quite quickly, clean sand without corals under your feet, but you can’t swim bored with a mask. But the most beautiful and unforgettable thing is walking around the neighboring islands, they are uninhabited, tiny, but there is the purest water, beautiful fish, magnificent diverse vegetation and on some islands there is a complete absence of people. it’s best not to take excursions (it turns out twice as expensive), but to negotiate with the boatman personally to make you a walk, we did just that, we explained on our fingers where we want to go, he understood and took the two of us for a ride and where he wanted to stop there and I was waiting, so we visited the island where the movie "The Beach" was filmed, the island of My Bay, but it's not very interesting there, a huge number of people, nowhere to be, visited the island "Mosquito" there they filmed an advertisement for the bounty, there were three more people besides us, and were also on many beautiful small islands, look on the map where you want to go to which island, if it is very close it is better to take a wooden boat, it will not be at all expensive, and if you want to go further away, do not agree to sail on a wooden one, take a boat, otherwise wooden you will sail for 3-4 hours to the island and sniff diesel fuel)))), The impression is super positive, wonderful places, the only minus in the food, everything is either very sour or spicy sweet, there is no salt either in the cooked food or on the tables. There are very few Russians in the hotel, or rather, when we rested, they weren’t there at all, the noticed contingent were French, Chinese and Americans. And you need to eat deliciously in Phuket, everything is fine with salt and there is a lot of food, you can eat the largest crabs, lobsters and shrimp on the grill for 1000 rubles. the prices there for everything are simply ridiculous, a can of cola is 5 rubles, a can of Pringles is 50 rubles)))))) in general, a cool place, worth a try!!!! ! and one more huge minus, in the evenings nasty frogs sit on the paths near the house !!!! !
