Been to Golden Cliff twice already. For the first time 2 years ago.
I think this is the best 3* (and some 4*) hotel in Pattaya. Another huge plus for me was that it is not located on Walking St. , but right at the beginning of Jomtien Beach. due to the location of the hotel, it is quiet and you can swim in the sea, unlike the super dirty Pattaya beach (there is a Beach road along the beach, keep in mind there are no hotels on the 1st coastline).
More about the hotel:
* I do not recommend for couples with children (if animation is needed)
1- as already written, the hotel is built in the shape of a castle (which is surprising for Tai), the rooms are 20 sq. m. (approximately), bath / toilet is normal, not all rooms face the sea, the balconies are small (very small), it is quite difficult to climb to the 4th floor (top floor) - spiral staircases.
2- breakfasts: few fruits (but there are always melons, watermelons, papaya, bananas), sausages, eggs, rice with something, toast, salad (chopped cucumbers, tomatoes and salad from which you can make a salad).
Normal juices (coffee and tea, as always, "neochen"), but you won't stay hungry, except for the most picky ones.
3 - the territory is small, but very green and beautiful - gazebos, tables, etc.
4- swimming pool- EXCELLENT sea water pool that borders the sea! you can swim in it at night. There is also a fresh pool just above.
5- beach: the hotel stands right on the seashore, BUT the coast is rocky and there is no pantone, so you need to walk 2 minutes (200 meters) to the beach along the path from the hotel. Fine. The water is always clear, but not sky blue. peddlers of shrimp-caps-corn, etc. are constantly walking - a little tiring
6- staff: normal (friendly, trying to help, of course, not well-trained like in GOOD 5 *, but even at the level of the usual Egyptian-Turkish "five" ....even better! not rude). remembered me when I came for the second time : )
there is the island of Koh Lan nearby - the water is blue there, and the sand is fine as flour and white (see below for how to get there)
7- no animation
8- always quiet and calm. it seems that the hotel is no more than 10 people resting. That's great!
9- vacationers: 2 years ago there were Germans, Italians, ours and Chinese (approximately equal, and since the hotel is small, then a few people each : )), this year there were mostly ours (I consider Ukrainians-Belarusians to be ours ) and the Chinese! but they made no noise. the hotel is small so everything is ok.
Adviсe:
1) to get to the center (Walking st. for example) take a tuk-tuk or taxi. the hotel does not have them, but the Adriatic hotel always has them. Get there like this: get out of the Golden Gliff and turn right towards the beach, after 50 meters the road rounds off and goes along the beach - go along the road for another 200-300 meters (motorbikers will offer to bring you along the way - if you are not afraid - get rid of them) and the road rests on the Adriatic Hotel. Here you can catch tuk-tuks (100 baht, regardless of the number of passengers), by taxi (these are silver minibuses standing right outside the hotel) are also 100 baht, sometimes they take you for 150.
2) go to Koh Lan
- clean and transparent "blue" water
- very white and fine sand
how to get there:
from the hotel, go to the Adriatic (see above) and catch a tuk-tuk or taxi and ask to be taken to the Port (so say "port" - it is also in English the port: ). The port is right at the beginning of Walking street. You buy boat tickets at the port (they go from 8 am to 12 there and back until 17-18).
about boats:
There are "fast" boats. they go 40 minutes and bring to the largest beach (there is no pier - like a struggle for cleanliness, so you have to wait a long time in the sun until everyone is loaded into boats and taken to the beach - not the most pleasant time). there is a ticket 150 (somewhere 115 rubles) round-trip baht.
but there are ordinary boats (exactly the same). in time they go 40-50 minutes, a ticket costs 20 baht one way, and they are taken either to China beach (Chinese beach) or to the port of the island. I highly recommend Chinese Beach! The sand is the finest on the island and the descent into the sea is the best + there are fewer people. This is the best beach on the island. checked!
And so, if you immediately arrived at the Chinese Beach, super, and if you go to the port, then: go along the pier to the shore, immediately go out onto the road, turn left and go for a couple of minutes without turning anywhere from the road - you are at the tuk-tuk parking lot. They deliver to different beaches. Say that you are on China Beach and go there for 20 baht along with other vacationers. Drive a maximum of 5 minutes.
on this beach, however, there are many Korean-Chinese until 12-12:30, but then they leave (simultaneously and quickly) and very few people remain on the beach. it's just great!
You drive back straight from the beach - there is a prichzhal. the last boat leaves at 17:00 (you buy a ticket right when you land - 20 baht)
* if you look at the beach from the sea, then on the right (pass through the bridge and the pier) there is another beach, but a small one - it is not fenced with a net (unlike the "main Chinese beach", where there is a net 100 meters from the shore, not allowing sea urchins and fish larger than 10 cm. ), so you can swim with a snorkel.
Caution: a lot of sea urchins, be careful (it's good that you can see them, because the water is super clean - the main thing is to look under your feet)
3) restaurants:
1- Opposite the Adriatic Hotel (where there is a taxi and tuk-tuk rank) there is an excellent "Russian cafe" - the menu is in Russian and the waiters speak our language (albeit a little: ). the cafe doesn't look like much, but the food and especially the juices are just super! you can also find boiled shrimp there! not in batter, not fried in oil, but boiled (those who were in tae will understand: ). And, of course, dumplings, potatoes and our other dishes are also there). And at very ridiculous prices, even for Tai. By the way, there is an excellent Thai massage nearby.
2- at the beginning of Walking st. (from the side of the port) there is an open-air restaurant - it will be the first on the left. there is very, very, very tasty food (and a huge selection of everything, including shrimp and mini-lobsters in ice, which cooks + sushi prepare in front of you : )), live music happens Yes, there is a buffet!
750 baht is all a pleasure (it may be a little expensive for a thai, but by Moscow standards it’s just ridiculous). The restaurant is open from 18:00 to 24:00.
Well, that seems to be all. "Detailed" review turned out: )). I wonder if anyone will read it to the end...
Have a great holiday everyone! I hope you enjoy Thailand as much as I do. Good luck!
