Ammatara Pura Pool Villa

The location and the overall feel and features of the property were amazing. We loved the typical Thai style of the buildings and it created a real feeling of being in Thailand. We stayed in a pool villa room - room 305 - which was fantastic! The room itself was huge, ultra silent for amazing nights sleep and amazing view over your own private pool to the sea! We lay and watched a fabulous lightning / thunder storm one evening from our bed! Room 305 has the best clear view I think as not obscured by tree foliage.The outdoor shower may not be everyone’s cup of tea but we loved it as it kept moisture out of the room and therefore no smell of damp which we have experienced at other 5* hotels in Thailand. This being a small intimate hotel also adds value as the staff are impeccable. They really get to know you on a personal basis. A shout out for Boa, Gail and Lim who really made our stay first class. A thank you must be extended to Steven the manager who also took the time to introduce the room and property to us on our stay. We had a wonderful relaxing time at this hotel. The team went over and above to arrange a table on the beach for us for our 28 year anniversary - much much thanks you you all for this :-)

We loved every aspect of our stay but the marvellous staff were the best part. They could not do enough for us and we were met with huge smiles every single morning. My surprise birthday cake at breakfast on our first morning was proof of how far this hotel goes to make your stay so very memorable, especially when we hadn’t mentioned it when we booked. On returning to our room we were met with a beautifully decorated bed. Our private pool was just perfect. The view from the bed at night will stay with me forever. The rooms are huge and maybe showing their age in some areas but this did not detract from our comfort in any way. Everything was spotlessly clean. The washing machine was a massive plus and one of the reasons why we chose to stay here. We would not hesitate to return.

We stayed in a sea view pool villa and the property had the wow factor and was massive. The pool and deck area were large and it was spotlessly cleaned every day. The staff were very accommodating and we had breakfast delivered to the room twice to accommodate trips and there is a small charge of 200Tb but they delivered before the restaurant opened so this was very convenient. An English chap (sorry forgot his name) checked us in and was so welcoming and friendly it really felt like a home from home. Definitely recommend

This was honestly the best hotel I have ever stayed in. The hotel itself was majestic, with a traditional Thai look which was exceptionally well maintained and very clean. It honestly felt like staying in a palace. It is located in Lamai which means you are guaranteed peace and quiet if that's what you are after. The staff were exceptional and went above and beyond. They were attentive and always on standby to help at all times. You can feel the warmth in all the interactions with them. The breakfast was really good with a plethora of choices to choose from. I cannot fault this hotel at all and would recommend this to anyone in a heartbeat.

From the first day the staff was very nice and welcoming. They made our stay even more special because they kept interacting with us and were always helpful. The breakfast was great with fresh juices and fruits - you have several options from which you can choose beforehand for the next day. This approach is more relaxing than having a buffet breakfast. The restaurant is also very good - the Pad Thai was especially tasty - although it could have even more Thai food in my opinion, instead of the western cuisine.
