Ne connaissant pas l agence SiameServices trouvée en naviguant sur le net, nous avons été très pénibles en réclamant des tonnes de renseignements. Ms KANUN a eu beaucoup de patience et nous a fait réservé un accueil plus que chaleureux au RASANANDA Resort !! Merci !! (Nous avons après coup trouvé sur le ROUTARD qu il's agissait d une agence très sérieuse !!! Nous ns étions méfiés car les fonds pouvaient être viré directement en Allemagne)

Accommodation and facilities:
Like the first reviewer, I too spent 3 days of my honeymoon at this wonderful exclusive resort. We had originally paid for the Garden Suite with Terrace Pool but got a free upgrade to the Ocean Front Suite with Terrace Pool which was simply fantastic and also reflected the exceptional customer service team they have in place. We arrived at the resort at 1PM but since the room wasn't made up, they offered us a free ala carte lunch to cover the delay. The free dinner coupons, used for all 3 nights were very welcome and considerably cut down overall cost. The food was exceptional and the european chef had a different special every night, served BBC Food style. Breakfast was limited but adequate enough to make us miss lunch and go straight for an early dinner. The level of privacy is second to none and the little dip pool on the terrace made for some very private moments. The room itself was something out a movie with lovely wooden flooring, concealed soft lighting, an LCD TV, free whisky, vodka & gin in tall decanters, a soft memory mattress on the bed & a separate wardrobe area. The shower was amongst the best I ve experienced anywhere. The beach, normally not a great feature even at some of the best resorts, was exceptionally clean and the water was only at chest height 100meters in, which made for a very safe & refreshing swim. Though my honeymoon lasted 12 days total, these 3 days were without doubt the highlight and I totally second what the first reviewer has written regarding bringing someone you love to this resort and allowing for total relaxation & no separate activities (except perhaps the Full Moon Party occuring once a month if your stay here corresponds). I can't imagine a better honeymoon spot, other than perhaps the Maldives. We will definitely be back and this time for at least 6 days.

The last 3 days of our honeymoon were spent in this incredible resort, and I only wish we had stayed for longer. Every detail was stunning - our private pool was a perfect private touch to avoid the strong Thai sun and offered a private space just along the beautiful bay. What a stunning backdrop to have your bed overlook a private pool, sun lounge and beach. I would suggest spending the extra money for a beachfront villa. The room: the most beautiful colour coordination, and attention to detail was immacualate. COmplimentary gin, vodka and whisky added to the hospitality in long tall decanters, and I loved the delicious free snacks every day. The bathroom is pure bliss - ours overlooked a private garden with a wall of windows, and a massive shower (for 2) filled with deliciously scented toiletries. Each evening the turn down service was a feature - sheets turned down, slippers by the bed, soft lighting, coffee and tea machines laid out ready for your pleasure, and a delightful home-made treat with hand written note. The main pool area is fantastic - the beautiful staff looked after our every need as we shared the facility with other guests who avoided the beach. The bar and restaurant are first class all the way - fantastic local and international meals by the feature chef, an appealing wine list and delicious breakfast was a highlight. Staff were fantastic- catered to our every need. We also had food vouchers as part of our package which was incredibly generous. Overall I would recommend anyone spend a little extra to come to this part of Thailand. Dont plan any activities, just allow yourself at least 3 days of bliss and fun. Take someone you love, or someone you love to spend time with, as it would be a shame not to share this special experience with someone. We will DEFINATELY be back, perhaps more than once. We ve travelled throughout Europe and South Amerca but this was trully unique and worth every dollar.
