100 Islands Resort & Spa recensioner

The pool is beautiful, makes you feel like you are in a tropical paradise. The hotel is a little unloved/dated but the rooms are clean and the staff are friendly. Aside from a Lotus shopping mall across the road and a bigger Central Plaza Mall five mins drive away there isn’t really much else around but as we were only here for one night before a transfer to Khao Sok it was fine and at £17 a night couldn’t really complain. Found an amazing restaurant a couple of minutes walk away and sat outside and had ‘hot pot’ with some local residents. The breakfast was the only downside, the food was left uncovered so it was cold and had flies around it.

If it wasn’t for the pool and the fountains in the entrance this hotel would be nothing special at all. The rooms feel old and just about holding together. The bed however was comfortable and the sheets feel reasonably new. The pool setting makes this hotel an oasis in the city of Surat Thani. You feel like you are swimming in a natural jungle pool surrounding by amazing trees. It’s really special and the reason why I’ve returned many times and can ignore the other points. The staff are friendly and it’s reasonably priced.
