Великолепно!!!!! Fabulous!!!!!

Rested with my husband from February 25 to March 9.2013. We arrived early in the morning. Long drive from the airport and arrival at a wonderful hotel. Registration was quick, they took a deposit of $ 100. They said that the check-in will be at 14:00 (departure of previous guests, cleaning, etc. ). But then a nice Thai at the reception corrected the time and we were settled at 10 am. While waiting for the settlement, explored the territory. Quite large and beautiful area. Paths with flowers, a gazebo with fish swimming in the pond, a magnificent large and clean pool. The first impression was great. We were shown to the room. Nice room, large bed, comfortable bathroom, quite large balcony with great views of the pool and the mountain. We lived in building 3. At first I thought about changing the room, because I really liked the rooms on the ground floor, from the bacons of which you can immediately go down to the pool. But towards evening it became clear that the visibility of what is happening in these rooms, if you do not close the curtains, is all in full view. . So the higher the floor, the more comfortable you feel) On the balcony there are a couple of sun loungers, a table and a rack for drying clothes. It was very pleasant to sit in the evenings, contemplating the edge view of the inner territory of the hotel, which was illuminated every evening by many lanterns. Only one piece of advice - do not leave anything edible on the balcony, the next day everything will be in small ants) Cleaning in the rooms is most likely standard. But I can definitely say. which was always clean. One day, coming from the beach, an interesting picture arose before my eyes. The girl who served our room laid out our clothes neatly on the bed. Not just a pile, but as if formed in sets - a skirt - a jacket, shorts - a T-shirt)) I don’t know for whom, but it was very nice) Many people write about tips that the quality of cleaning depends on their amount, I can’t say anything about this . We usually left 40 baht each, maybe a little, but anyway, no thanks) Breakfast at the hotel from 6:30 to 10:30. The choice is quite decent. Fruits, vegetables, sausages, bacon, dairy products, eggs that the chef will prepare in different ways, and much more. Naturally, the menu was the same all the time, but you could always choose, no one ever left hungry. Kata Beach is about 15-20 minutes walk from the hotel. Although the site indicates that the first line, well, maybe it was like that before, until another hotel was built right on the way. But I can say for sure that it has never upset us. From the hotel it was possible to go to the left, but it seemed to us that we chose a closer path. If you turn right from the hotel and go through the "stinky river", you will find yourself right on the beach, and along the way there are fewer vendors pestering you with offers of massages, buying clothes, etc. There is a bus from the hotel every hour to the beach. But if you come to the entrance of the hotel by 9 o'clock in the morning, then there will be so many people that it is unlikely that you will be able to get on the bus. For the whole holiday, we never used it) The same with the sun loungers on the beach. There are very few of them from the hotel, so if you arrived at the beach after 9 o'clock, then there will definitely not be any places. So we came to the beach, took towels and rented sun loungers for 100 baht per person. Kata Beach is magnificent, clean sand, clear as a tear and calm water. The hotel is also close to Karon Beach, easily accessible on foot. Also a very nice beach, though with crisp sand. It is very interesting when you walk along the beach, and the sand under you either crunches or whistles))) Near the hotel there are a lot of cafes, massage parlors, various shops. At first, we did not even pay attention to the cafe, which is located opposite the hotel. But really a very good place. Smiling staff, delicious food, pretty good prices. An ideal place for lunch, as well as for dinner, if you are very tired and do not want to go anywhere far). Lots of massage parlors. It is more expensive on the territory of the hotel, so if you want to rest and relax, then when you leave the hotel, you need to turn left) Personally, I really liked the massage parlor, I don’t remember its name, but it is located almost at the end of the street, girls in branded clothes work there and at the entrance there is an aquarium with fish, in which you dip your legs and get an interesting "pedicure") We also gave clothes to the laundry outside the hotel, much cheaper, and the quality is probably just as good. There is a lot of entertainment, who came to rest how and why. We went to different beaches, they all seem to be similar, but each has its own zest. Lots of different excursions. We went to the survey, informative, but not very interesting, it was better to go on our own later with feeling, sense and rasstonovka. I remember very much the trip to the island of Phi Phi, where the film with Leonardo DiCaprio was filmed))) it’s true that we went for one day, a little and very quickly, but there are sooo many impressions. Next time, at least for two days and not only there. It's really worth seeing. Vouchers were taken not from our tour operator (Aneks tour) They offered very expensive trips, and when they said that we would go with local, but Russian-speaking, they began to intimidate. Then while you are gone, you will be robbed, God forbid what happens to you, there will be no insurance, no one will help.... Everything was just great, never regretted. For lovers of nightlife - Patong Beach, it is also called little Pattaya. A great place to relax, dance, drink and more. They offer various shows, some of which I will not immediately say are not for the faint of heart))) I really liked the D-club, a street with cafes where lady-fights are dancing) Very fun))) You can talk a lot about Thailand, about Phuket, everything interesting and a lot of things remained unknown and unknown. I can say for sure that next time we will go to Phuket and stop again in Alpina, we liked it very much. One of the great hotels.
