Overall a good resort. However too many mosquitoes everywhere, from pool, restaurant and around the rooms.
SHANGJU, MARTIN, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The location of the resort was scenic and private but still a short walk from shops and restaurants. The pool area was very clean and easy to use. Staff went above and beyond, with food service, tuk tuk service and helping with general questions. Highly recommend!
CHRISTIAN BOWERS, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Clean room, very friendly, good customer service, great nature view at the restaurant and free breakfast was great quality. Only downside was the loud Muslim prayer time down the street that took away from the feeling of being secluded in nature. But the rooms are pretty sound proof and I would still highly recommend the resort. Pool was really nice too. We were very happy with our stay.

Ban Sainai Resort was wonderful. The staff are very friendly and helpful and many speak English. The pool area and gym is very good and the view is spectacular. We enjoyed the family room. Thank you for a lovely visit in Ao Nang!
Jess, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful hotel, all staff are so lovely and helpful. Peaceful location but also easy access to main centre, bar, shops etc. this is an amazing hotel and our stay here was very memorable. Just one point that we didn’t realise until we got to the hotel, there is no alcohol sold at the property, but they don’t mind you bringing alcohol into the hotel if you want some with your meal etc.

10/10 Exceptional

We liked everything: the quietness, the beautiful scenery, the cottage, the pool, the breakfast, the staff !
aurélie, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Be aware: this is a MUSLIM, dry hotel. Five times a day you will hear the loud-speakers from the mosque nearby with chanting songs/ prayer call. Location is beautiful, good and quiet (except for the 5 prayer calls that start right before the sun comes up). Staff is super friendly and helpful. The pool is very nice and you can order food and non-alcoholic drinks. Buffet breakfast was good, plus they have a menu to choose from (they do delicious scrambled eggs). The room was nice and clean. A few improvements needed in the room: the decorative mosquito net over the bed gets annoyingly tugged by the pillow. The lighting in the bathroom sucks. The grounds are beautiful; just know that they have large, Asian Water Monitor lizards. Overall, a very nice place to stay.
Otilia, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very lovely place in the middle of tropical garden atmosphere. Staff was very nice, servicing us with everything necessary. Short walking distance to AoNang main street.
Ulli, 3-night trip

PERFECT for a quieter side of Ao Nang.

Was a great trip. Off the beaten path of Ao Nang. Secluded, quiet and service and comfort of a 4-5 star resort.
