"Pros: This is a small property near Yala. A note of caution: while it’s advertised as a 5-star hotel, it really isn’t—but I was aware of that from the price and the pictures, so I didn’t come in with unrealistic expectations. To my surprise, the stay turned out better than expected. The check-in process was smooth and welcoming, with a refreshing drink and a cool towel. The room was standard but spacious, clean, and came with a balcony overlooking the pool. We had the half board option, and the dinner buffet was good. There weren’t too many choices, but the quality was nice and everything was enjoyable. A big plus was that the hotel provided us with a breakfast box at 4 a.m. for our safari, which was very thoughtful and much appreciated. Overall, considering the competitive price, I think this property delivers great value and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable stay at a fair price near Yala." ~Aita

"Pros: A fairly large hotel with a swimming pool and buffet restaurant, close to the national park for those who want to go on safari." ~Luca
