Reservation service:
Everything went well we just give the voucher and that was done! I will book again through this site as it is one of the cheapest one... I was scare to get the less good room but it was not the case we had what we requested ie upper room non smoking not to far from reception.

Pimalai Resort & Spa
Accommodation and facilities:
We stayed 5 nights at Pimalai in deluxe room which was comfortable but furniture was somewhat outdated. Not much of a cosiness factor around the hotel - this is a big complex and you are transported from one end to the other by a golf car (if you are too lazy to walk uphill). Breakfast is really good, service as well (professional but not very personal). There are a few restaurants in the complex with different food concepts - great if you want to vary thai food with fries or pasta. Also at European prices. We ate mostly at the local places around the hotel, offering 5 times cheaper good thai food. A restaurant called Same same but different at the local beach offers the best food on Kantiang Beach. The hotel pool situated high up on the hill is very nice and offers a splendind view. Overall, a nice hotel, but a bit overpriced in terms of room design -I´ve been to better 4 star hotels. This is however compensated by professional service and good range of hotel amenities.

efficient as usual

Accommodation and facilities:
Beautiful hotel and exceptional staff. Wonderful experience. Good food and selection. Nice activities. All great except room smelled a little moldy. Housekeeping sprayed, but smell never went away. We borrowed an essential oil burner from the spa and it helped a lot. Some noise from longtails and little hotel trucks, but generally very quiet. Great diving.
Reservation service:
Good service. Everything worked. I was surprised/disappointed that full payment was due in advance.

Accommodation and facilities:
The hotel was very nice; we insisted and were moved to a private villa. The hotel in general could use some updating and the beach was on the dirtier side. The transfer at $50US per person was a bit of a rip-off. Besides all that, nice place.
Reservation service:
A bit cumbersome and the no change no refund is annoying.

Pimalai Resort & Spa
Accommodation and facilities:
Pimalai is a beautiful Resort built over a hillside. The accommodation is spacious and clean. It has a nice clean beach ideal for swimming. Their Seven Seas Restaurant is by far their best by way of the setting and table arrangements, service and the food is exquisite. The prices are what one would expect to pay at a 5 Star resort. There are insects that crawl out at night due to its location and we have to expect it. Whilst the staff have a poor command of English, they are very pleasant and ever willing to help and provide service. We stayed 8 nights and looking back, have no regrets at all.

Probably the best hotel I have stayed at. Wonderful architecture and landscaping. Great location and beach facing exactly west so you can watch the sunset over Koh Ha. Close to the good Thai dive sites so you can complete the first dive before anybody else arrives.Would highly recommend.

Peace, Serenity, Solitude.
These are the words that come to mind for Pimalai. Add to that luxury, elegance, natural surroundings and genuine friendly service. Be it for a honeymoon, a diving experience, a break from it

well distant from crowded beaches and resorts, the only sound is that of the waves sliding in and out and slowly breaking onto the sandy shore.
Built within the rainforest as it meets the silver ocean strand, you would hardly know Pimalai was there. The luxury beach resort occupies 100 acres of tropical vegetation with direct access to a 900 meters stretch of pristine sandy beach and offers 121 accommodation units -
Deluxe, Bayfront Deluxe, Pavilion Suite, Beach Villa and Pool Villa - all very elegantly appointed.
From the mainland, it takes about 1 hour by the resort boat to reach Lanta and Pimalai but it is worth bearing this "hardstrip" in order to find such a unique lost paradise in tourist Thailand... Visit once and you will return again and again.
