Read moreWe arrived late at night, the staff there is superbly wonderfully accommodating and helpful, the location itself is pretty okay with the downside of noknok flies and other insects in different places throughout the resort.
We booked a single room as a family of five to spend the night safe from insect bites and the unmerciful cold breeze of the resort.
There are few people at night, but many people in the day. We encountered a lot of foreigners in the resort as well.
The cafeteria is closed at night and open in the morning though there aren’t many customers in there, so service is very fast.
As for the resort itself, you see two cold pools with two frogs spitting water in them and a river available for swimming (it is cold in the river) and five hot pools with varying degrees of hotness.
PROS - Hot water pools Cold water pools Many cottages around the resort Many rooms around the resort Shower areas Restrooms Accommodating staff
CONS - Pets not allowed Noknok flies and other dead insects infesting the pools (dont worry it will be carried away from the current eventually) 1 hour or 3 hours of wifi in the cafeteria (closed cafeteria means no wifi aswell) The floor tiles and the stairs connecting the outside to the rooms are slippery if you’re not careful.
Overall, nice place to relax since its 300daytime/350nightime for an adult 280 for senior citizen
I suggest staff get softer pillows for the beds, a nice place to hang wet clothes since there’s no balcony in the rooms, fix the chairs/replace the old chairs with new ones in room number 03 and replace the top of the table in some way, since the paint is worn out, also add door mats/water resistant mats in the bathroom doors and the room’s doors, and also re-paint the slide in the cold pool since the descent of the slide stops because of the paint wearing off, making the slide slower.
These are all suggestions to improve the resort, please take it with a grain of salt and as room for improvement to up the...
