Marina Beach Resort

Location: short walk to lots of bars/restaurants but just out of the way so you cant hear any noise. 30 seconds to the beach but be aware there are those annoying Europeans who leave towels on chairs but hardly use them. The beach is clean here. Take mosquito spray in the evening. I was given an upgrade to the B block - if you book a room in C block you will be closest to the road so may hear noise there. I was about half way between the road and the beach and couldn't hear any road noise at all, but the rooms have thin walls so you will hear other guests if they stay up late talking loudly. Service was very good - room cleaned every day, bottled water etc all topped up daily. Motorbike rental just 250 baht a day, no deposit so book through reception for a much easier and safer booking experience. Very efficient and friendly staff. The room is a good size and yes a little old but totally acceptable for me - i am not particularly fussy if I feel i am getting what i pay for and this hotel felt like excellent value for money, i'm happy i stayed there and would book again. Ask for instructions on the safe as none are provides (press the reset button inside the back of the door, enter your new 4 digit pin followed by #). Get the wifi password from reception as it isn't provided in the room. *IMPORTANT* Some renovation work is going on now (from 20th Dec) - a few rooms being renovated on B block so there could be noise between 9 or 10am to 6pm, check before you book!

A nice hotel direct at the beach. To the city center you walk just some minutes.

Zona céntrica con prácticamente de todo alrededor, si no duermes bien con música no es tu hotel pero si te gusta la fiesta es el tuyo ya que estás rodeado de fiesta por la noche por el lado de la playa y por el lado de la calle central, el hotel se encuentra a pie de playa según la habitación que elijas lo suyo sería la zona del medio. Piscina normalita pero a pie de playa junto al bar del hotel con precios decentes.
