In the lobby, the trickling of water from the fountain combined with delicate Thai music sets the mood for a calm and relaxed holiday. The stylish accommodations are characterized by warm wooden polished floors and furnished in contemporary Thai style. The spilt-level design of the Equatorial rooms is different but not very conducive for families. The bedroom upstairs, though comfortable, is small and there?s no room for an extra bed. The spacious living room downstairs is much cozier but the bathroom here means a real trip from the bedroom at night. On the other hand you?ll feel more at home in the sizeable Villas which are light and airy and have very upmarket bathrooms. The small patio outside is a good place to read or dine. The beachfront is broad and clean and the boat shaped rattan hammocks are unique. During the high seasons planned activities are available and for a fee you can set off on the hotel?s junks boat for sunset cruises or snorkeling in Koh Phangan. The service is spontaneous and the level of spoken English is good. Generally couples tend to dominate while festive periods are more popular with families. Don?t be put off by the price, if you prefer a location where it is exclusive and intimate yet not completely isolated and easy to get around and in and out of the property, then the Santiburi is the answer
