Somkiet Buri Resort, A secluded property located in Ao Nang beach with mountain view backdrop, only 300 meters from the beach.
We have Superior and Deluxe rooms and a wonderful forest spa.
About the hotel: the hotel is very nice of outside enviorment looks like forest. But the room is not very good, we had problem with the bathtub. But they have nice flowers of honeymoon decration.
About the reservation service: good booking service
About the hotel: 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.
About the hotel: The trippel de luxe room was very good if it was on the second floor. The room on first floor smelld mould(mögel).The extrabed was impossible to sleep on, it was just a stonehard plastic madrass.The hotel itself was cosy but it lacked some of the extras, for example, have to ask several times for toiletpaper, when we said we where missing towels did the personel chech our rooms before we got more, it was if they did not belive us. Small thing but a little bit annoying.
About the reservation service: Very good, was some minor problems with the pick up service but it was solved very quickly.
About the hotel: A real haven of peace - had a great upper floor room with a wonderful view on the pool. The surroundings are beautiful (no problem with creepy crawlies) The breakfasts are not at all varied - but no big deal for us. Our bed linen was never changed during the 11 nights (despite two requests) difficult to know if this was a normal problem or just a one-off, but they paid the taxi to the airport as a gesture of compensation. Freindly staff in general. Would stay there again.
About the reservation service: It was the first time - everything was perfect.
About the hotel: Ganz sicher eines der schoensten und individuellsten Hotels in Krabi, mit einer phantastischen Urwald-Natur im Umfeld.Dazu ein Super-Preis-Leistungs-Verhaeltnis.Sehr empfehlenswert, Wolf /Muenchen,Germany
One of the most beautiful resorts in Krabi, surrounded by a phanstastic jungle scenery. Higly recommanded
About the reservation service: perfect service by sawadee.com
About the hotel: Wonderful hotel,really like being in the middle of the jungle, pool area is fantastic,scenery is 2nd to none.
Friendly staff, rooms cleaned everyday with fresh towels for both pool and bathroom. Rooms are huge with excellent air con facilities. TV channels limited but who needs TV. The decor of the rooms is fantastic with a beautiful bathroom lots of attention to detail.
Breakfast was lovely as we were concerned when reading past peoples comments but we had no complaints. We did not eat in the restauranton an evening however other guest said it was very good, the reason for this was due to again past comments advising alcohol was not served in the resort and we enjoy a beer or wine with our meal, however on the last day we found out the you CAN actually be served an alcoholic drink with your meal!! The resort is very dark and you have to walk over wooden type bridges which was a little awkward and not recommended for people with disabilities or high heels!! You are supplied with a torch though!!! Overall wonderful resort would definatley stay again and recommed to friends
About the reservation service: Easy as always good communication
About the hotel: A great hotel in great location the only thing that was not as got as one could expect was the cleaning of the room that was below expectations. The bed was done but that was almost it.. We had a deluxe tripple room.
About the reservation service: Fantastic bookingservice!!
About the hotel: Das Hotel ist genau so wie man es auf den Fotos sieht. Einfach super schön.Das Frühstück ist auch sehr gut gewesen hatten schon zweifel wegen den negativ komentaren. Aber es ist voll und ganz ausreichen es gab auch schon warme Speisen. Nur keinen speck und Wüstchen war aber klar weil das Hotel von Moslemis geführt wird.Wir fanden alles super, bis auf die Bauarbeiten, ich denke es wird das neue Spa.Kommen bestimmt mal wieder.
About the reservation service: Buchungsservice war super. Wurden aber leider nicht auf die Bauarbeiten hingewiesen.Da hätte man uns noch mit dem Preis entgegenkommen sollen.
About the hotel: i have spend total of two weeks in Somkiet Buri during my travels around the Krabi area. The hotel stands of the crowd of usual concrete hi-tech resorts that consist of blocks of flats by its ambient and tropic grounds of authentic jungle equipped by hotel facilities, bridges and houses. While located still pretty much in central Ao Nang just around 50m from the main road and 3 minutes walk from the beach, Somkiet Buri offers an unique calm and isolated accomodation in a palm forest with a view of palmtrees, if you just cant stand living in 7th floor of a concrete block and watching dozens of white trash kids partying by the pool till 4AM, like at most other resorts:) The downside of my stay was:
- no internet in the rooms, not even wifi network. I would expect the few PCs at the reception would in that case offer free use for the paying guests, but they are paid, so you end up going through the tropical jungle to a (literally) hot spot at the reception full of mosquitos just to check your mail. I would personally prefer a free wifi over a badly tuned TV full of thai channels.
- there was constant heavy construction work in the resort which woke me up every day. I guess this cant be really considered a minus as all ao nang is in construction during the off-season period
- the air conditioning didnt seem to reflect the temperature you set plus it turned off every time I went out of the room with my keys, which makes it quite unpleasant to come back to a hot and wet room after the whole day.
- the hotel restaurant if a little overpriced and the food is no good. That however suits most of Ao Nang wherever you go. Professional cooks seem to be rare, everything is from the freezer.
- the rooms are quite wet with a specific mould smell. The toilet seemed that nobody cares to clean it before a new tenant comes, the inner side was all dark from dirt. I saw a couple of cockroaches and a rat on the floor in my bedroom, on the other hand dont sleep in thai tropical jungle if you want to stay dry and away from animals. I would go again.
