We stayed at Bandara Resort last September and it is the best hotel we had until now (quality/price). We had a very good breakfast buffet (4 different fresh juice, smoked salmon, thai breakfast, pancakes, honey in the comb,..) everything you can dream on.
You have the opportunity to relax at the two big swimming pools with chairs + umbrellas and on the beach. There is enough chairs for everyone.
They organize activities (yoga, diving initiation, thai box, aqua gym, fruit scarving, etc.) but you have to register in advance at the reception, otherwise the activity can be cancelled if nobody is interested. Once a week, we have the opportunity to taste a thai buffet for the price of 1.250 baths + taxes.
Free wireless access for your laptop (ask at the reception) and internet in public area (2 PCs).
They put big lockers with towels, shampoo, etc for late departure at your disposal. Normally, we had to leave the bedroom at 12 but they allowed us to keep it until 2 pm.
The staff try to fulfil all your requests. The only inconvenient is the price for the food and the beverage which is relatively high. The Fischerman’s village is at 10 minutes walk.
