"Unfortunately after being a return customer over the last 10 years, as a animal lover I will NOT be returning to Golden Hill due to terrible and inhumane living conditions for a very lovely and friendly dog that is locked in a cage with nothing more than its own feces. It is locked up 24/7 and it’s clearly in desperate need of the simple things all animals deserve. The cage is near the entrance to the resort and customers have to drive past a clearly frustrated and distressed dog daily that...
"The pool was just disgusting, you couldn't see the bottom from above. Nobody was swimming while I was there (5 days). Talked to one staff guy but nothing happened.
Room had a strange smell, too. Changed the room once, was good in the other one.
The beach in front of the resort is not good but other good beache are close.
The personell on the other side is very friendly and helpful."
"The staff was rude and not welcoming at all. They made us feel so uncomfortable that only stayed 1 night and changed hotel for the rest of our stay on the island. Even for breakfast I arrived at 10.01 and they refused to serve because kitchen was closing at 10am.
On top of that, the pictures looks much nicer than reality (dirty pool, no real beach behind..)
I do not recommend at all this hotel."
"Wonderful hosts. Friendly. Warm. Family atmosphere. Water, pristine. Like a giant swimming pool at the end of your room.
Lovely home cooked Thai breakfast.
Highly recommend."

"A beautiful resort within the hills / forest, set away from the main road and is only really accessible via taxi or the hotel shuttle bus (or scooter). We were on a budget & made use of the twice free daily shuttle to go to fisherman’s village and made sure we had drinks/snacks etc for when we wanted to spend the day relaxing on the resort (at the amazing pool and on our balcony with stunning views). There are twice weekly yoga classes and a new wellness programme. My husband and I did a mindfulness / positive thought session with Dean in guest relations and it was great, relaxing and in spirit with the beautiful surroundings. Breakfast is amazing with such a good range of options, both a buffet of pastries, breads, fruit, Thai soup and rice and fabulous juices plus made to order various breakfast meals. However I was really disappointed in the lack of vegetarian options for the rest of the menu once breakfast stopped. We shared a pizza and it wasn’t good, nachos and a vege burger were other options, I wish there’d been more vege inspiration. Prices for drinks and food were about 3 times above our budget (and treatments compared to the main road) but wine options were great which was a rare find in our three weeks in Thailand, much appreciated. Beautiful 3 night stay."

"First time at Banyan Tree & it was exceptional. Everything clean & beautifully presented. The staff were fantastic in their knowledge & friendliness whilst being totally professional. I shall certainly stay there again!"
"The OZO is a serene oasis tucked just away from a bustling street. The service was excellent and the rooms were clean. The hotel staff were always available to help and assisted us with booking and planning a last minute tour of the island. The beach is easily accessed and beautiful. There are plenty of chairs - no need to come early or fight for a space! I highly recommend and can’t wait to come back! "
