    Chaweng vibes 🇹🇭

    Location was top-notch, right near the beach and all the nightlife. The staff were super chill and always ready to help us out with anything. Our room had a comfy bed and was stylish enough for the price we paid!

    To be honest, the cleanliness in our room could’ve been better. just a bit of a letdown that.

    I spent 9 nights in a Superior Double Room. The setup is exactly like the photos, and the big bed was comfy. The main bedroom was super clean, which I appreciated.

    fly infestation
    small room
    noise disturbance

    Hydro insect dilemma—a consistent issue with a range of flies creating an unpleasant atmosphere. Size of the room unexpectedly cramped, especially compared to bathroom size. Hard beds with plastic covers, and noise from low-flying planes disrupts peace, along with parties nearby keeping music blasting until 4 am.

    great location but noisy surroundings

    The location offered easy access to the beach, making it perfect for beach lovers. I found the rooms to be stylish, with a comfortable atmosphere that made relaxation enjoyable. The staff was friendly and accommodating, allowing me to check in early, which was a nice touch. The garden view from my room was delightful, providing a serene backdrop during my stay.

    Noise from the nearby airport and parties nearby disrupted the peace at times.

    beach access
    friendly staff
    noisy surroundings

    Had a fantastic time with my friends! We loved the close beach access, perfect for chilling. Caught some sun at the beach and visited a local night market. The staff was friendly and let us check in early, which kicked off our trip nicely.

    The noise from nearby parties was a bit much at times, making it hard to get a good night's sleep.

    upgraded rooms
    stylish air-con
    loud planes

    I stayed for 3 nights in a Superior Double Room and loved how stylish the upgraded rooms were! The air-con was a lifesaver in the heat, but the planes were quite loud at times. I'd return for the value!

    Great location super-close to the beach and super-helpful staff made our trip! Rooms were of a high standard and the air-con helped keep us cool in the intense heat. Just a perfect spot for a chilled out stay!

    For us, it was ideal.
