About the hotel:
Nice hotel with nice huts and very helpful people. The only things is that they never clean the huts while you are there. You always have to ask before they clean it. Very loud in the morning as the fishermen get up at 5h00 and start their boats right in front of your hut.

About the hotel:
We stayed 3 nights in a bungalow with AC and hot water. It s not worth the money! You can only have hot water when AC has been on 16 degrees Celcius for 1 hour! Then it s too cold to be inside. ANd the hot water is only enough for one person. The other bungalows might be worth the price. Mae Had is nice.

About the hotel:
This hotel is owned by a very bad man. During our time at the resort, 4 people were drowning. I asked to grab the life jackets and the owner leyt us. However after the whole debacle, the life jackets were lost and the owner made us pay for them. Also we booked for a ferry from Koh Phanang to Surat Thani at 7 in the morning. We paid our ticket fare to the owner. He gave us no ticket and said that we just had to mention his hotel name to the boat man once we got to the pier. After we reached the pier, the boat man refused us entry and we had to re purchase tickets. Absolute rubbish of a place as it is also very far from Harin Beach where full moon party is.
About the reservation service:
Sawadee is a great site.

About the hotel:
I stayed in a standard bungalow, which is pretty small. There was a leak in the bathroom sink which got worse every time the tap was turned on. The room felt very damp, the sheets felt damp, made it a little uncomfortable to sleep. The decor in the bungalows is very average. The restaurant is great, staff are friendly, they also have a souvenir shop. The atmosphere is nice in the evenings at the restauran/bar. The major downside was the actual bungalow.
About the reservation service:
No problems with booking.

About the hotel:
disaster. dead and live cockroaches constantly reappearing in our bathroom. our fan room was beyond sweltering and room was moldy and stuffy. extremely overpriced. when we informed the man in charge that we would be leaving the following day and would like our money back for the next night (we had reserved two nights stay and paid both upon arrival), he refused. this escalated into a heated argument, at which resulted in him making us leave immediately ( it was after 9:30 pm, which in that area may have been 3 am) in order to get our money for the following night. another couple who was staying and paying 800 baht for an a/c room also reported cockroaches. we moved to haad salad villa on the next beach and stayed for a week. much recommended.
About the reservation service:
booking service great. but perhaps drop this so called resort .

About the hotel:
Other people we spoke to seemed to have a fine time here, but for us, our one night there was the worst experience of our 6 month trip. I m not sure if we just had bad luck, if the manager is just a jerk, or if it really is a bad place - you be the judge. The food tasted good, but my boyfriend woke up at 4am with severe stomach pains an nausea. We had only eaten at this hotel the entire day, so we were sure that Royal Orchid was the source of the bad food. In addition to that, I woke up with a rash completely covering my arms and legs. Later, after I took my boyfriend to the hospital for food poisoning, the doctor told me that the rash was probably due to ticks in the bed/room. After seeing the doctor and admitting my boyfriend to the hospital, I called Royal Orchid and asked them to send a taxi for me. In spite of the pouring rain outside, the manager flatly refused to send a taxi because he said he wouldn t earn any money for that trip, and he urged me to stand out in the rain and hail a taxi. That was the last straw, after that I found another place and moved. After my boyfriend recovered, we went back to try to get a refund for the days we already paid for, but didn t end up staying there for. Surprise, surprise, the manager refused to refund. Eventually we called a rep at Sawadee,com who contacted the owner, and we were able to get reimbursed for 50% of the extra nights we paid for. Oh well, half is better than nothing
