by Esben Vester Morsing Visit Date:July 14, 2010 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "God beliggenhed i junglestil i udkanten af Mae Haad i rolige omgivelser, men alligevel tæt på byen. Da der ikke var så mange turister, mens vi var der, serverede restauranten kun morgenmad, øl og sandwiches." |
by Mandy Carruthers Visit Date:January 6, 2010 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "Royal Resort was just our cup of tea (family of 4)! We loved the walk through the village to the end road which led to Royal Resort, stopping for a massage just before you hit the Royal.
Staff were very relaxed and friendly, so much so that we decided to ditch Sairee Beach accommodation and continue to stay at Royal Resort which was low key and away from young drinking tourists.
Beautiful tropical garden setting was a perfect location for our family to settle into Thai life in a family run resort. Will definitely go back." |
by Michael Visit Date:January 5, 2010 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "Very friendly people with good service and support. The bungalows are simple but clean and very stylish (typical for the thailand). We have had a Deluxe Hill Side with a great view. I would stay there again and can recommend it to everyone who looks for a very good value for money." |
by KRISTOFFER SJOKVIST Visit Date:January 4, 2010 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "Nice little hotel. It is possible though to find cheaper and better location depending on needs. The place is off enough to be peaceful and close enough to have Mae Haad on walking distance and 5 min taxi (200 baht) to Sairee.
Rooms were nice. Staff was compliant and good. At one time they were very rude, though. The portier, also working in the bar, was very drunk and said unfitting things to the girl." |
by Yelena Visit Date:August 22, 2009 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "Do not go there. the houses themselves are not so bad but expremely dirty, dusty and stinky as the toilet is in the room and no detergents are ever used to clean it.(walls are purply dusty and big cockroaches are living there). Besides you might get lucky and get the room next to the road which goes to Paradise Sensi Resort and Charm Churee Villa so it is NEVER quiet there as Thai people have fun at nite and in the mornin (6a.m.)water and goods are delivered to the hotels.
SERVICE is the worst. there is a guy( one of the managers) who is extremely rude and the most important they are liars. They promised to give the quiet bungalow the first day, then to change it , then to clean it and they didnt.their reason was that NOBODY DIE IN HERE . they immediately demand the other part of money . in my case one of the waiters tried to grab my bag( in the form of the joke) and kept saying GIVE money now!
so if you really want to stay in a cheap place you better go to other ones as Diamond, Stay Bungalows with nice Mr. TEE. they are clean and really cheap. Anyway you wouldnt be able to swim at Royal next to the boats and would go to Sairee or Jansom Bay(200 THB to pay).
P.S. dont rely on air conditioning as the electricity at nite just switches off at THIS hotel( cant say the same abt Charm Churee, Sensi and the Stay bungalows)" |
very good, August 5, 2009 by Crystel Lhotel Visit Date:July 31, 2009 Room: Service: Facilities: Location: "very nice place to be at, enjoyed quiet beach atmosphere, all the hotel workers. The bungalow was clean and nice compare to other places we saw around." |
Efficient response., January 29, 2009 by William Pugh Visit Date:January 24, 2009 "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Royal Resort as it provided a good base to explore the island. The room had everything you require and was well maintained. The staff were very helpful and can be relied upon with their reccommendations. The resort is set within picturesque settings and i would certainly recommend the accommodation." |
Fast and effective as alway....thanks!, January 13, 2009 by donna blake Visit Date:January 4, 2009 "Great location directly on the beach. Be warned that this is only a 3/5 min walk from the ferry pier, you do not need to get a taxi!! Turn right when coming off the boat and walk straight until the end of the road, Royal Resort 2nd last reception.
Hut were very clean and comfortable. Take plenty of mossie repellant or a net as the fan was not enough to deter them from coming into our hut.
Family who run the resort were very pleasnat and helpful. Enjoyed our stay so much we booked an additional night.
Koh Tao paradise.....boat trip from Samui was an experience, sea sick tablets def recommended." |
Excellent!, August 28, 2008 by Andrejs Pada Visit Date:August 22, 2008 "Very nice place!" |
It worked well! :), August 11, 2008 by Matthew Healy Visit Date:August 5, 2008 "I am 23 and I am from FL, USA
The bungalows here were very nice. It was quiet and easy to sleep. The bed was comfortable and the sheets were clean. The AC and fan worked well.
However, I did not like the resort manager at all. He very insincere was not helpful. Unlike the rest of the Thai s.
Apart from that It was a nice resort and it was comfortable. However if I came again I would stay at New Heaven. The woman there was extremely nice and friendly. I went looking for a vacancy since I did not like the manager at Koh Tao Royal Resort he was a jerk. Unfortunately it was too much of a hassle to cancel at Koh Tao Royal Resort." |
July 7, 2008 by David W Wilkins Visit Date:June 28, 2008 "Amazing views from our hillside bungalow. Simple, traditional Thai style, which is what we wanted. Not sure what would have happened if it rained as we could see specks of light through the woven roof.
We thought it was a bit expensive when we booked compared to other accomodation, but wouldn t have missed it and would have stayed longer if we could.
Porter very friendly and helpful." |
brilliant booking with sawadee.com, June 23, 2008 by Tracey Anne Harper Visit Date:June 16, 2008 "The bungalow I stayed in was very clean and comfortable, thankyou! The staff were very friendly and quite cheeky! The views to the beach were lovely and the water lovely to swim in. Thanks so much!" |
Good as always , June 30, 2008 by Lisa Hall Visit Date:June 16, 2008 "I would not recommend the deluxe rooms as they are located up the hill & up the stairs. Also the bathroom is accessible via very steep stairs/ladder. We also had a snake in our room. The staff however are friendly & did move us following the discovery of the snake. " |
best no problem recommended sawadee warmly, June 18, 2008 by mirsad sabanovic Visit Date:June 11, 2008 "bungalow was lung to sleep sometimes is the cradle of the issues between the residents if you you like big lizards to sleep with you in the room, the bungalow was for expensive, we think, is not recommended, staff only ok, not a good place for bathers" |
No problems at all, April 29, 2008 by Tom Walsh Visit Date:April 19, 2008 "Excellent in everyway. Comfortable rooms, great food, location is very close to the ferry drop so you can walk to it. Very friendly staff and two very funny children up to some mischief. " |
