Beach and staff are lovely. Resort is nicely located in a jungle setting. Room was a good size with a big sun deck with loungers. But its foundations had sunk so it was not level. The doors had become out of square and did not close easily or properly. Was very glad we had a villa near the beach. Only 45 stairs to go up and down. And a similar number up to the pool. Calf muscles got quite stiff.
Staff were lovely but very limited English. Breakfast surprisingly good. As was dinner. Small menu but well and tastily prepared and presented. And at very reasonable price.
Road in is a bit hairy. Narrow and rutted dirt track bulldozed out of a slippy hillside with drops down to the sea. Having travelled in Nepal we were ok with it. But another guest was sufficiently spooked to go back to the ferry wharf by longtail boat.
It is not a one night stopover place. Getting there takes time and effort. It was second day before we started to relax into the get up. Have breakfast. Sit on beach. Have a swim. Sit on the beach some more. Have lunch. Go back to villa for air conditioned rest in afternoon heat. Go up to pool for a swim at low tide. Back to each for a sunset cocktail - they did a good pinacolada -then leisurely dinner and bed. Next day rinse and repeat.
Some instructions from the resort as to how to get there would have helped. With advice from Dr Google we booked speedboat ferry from Phuket. Leaves at 9.00am. Got off boat at stop three Koh Jum wharf. Then taxi to resort.
