Hotels & Accommodation near Sao Beach

You will not experience a better excuisite and adventurous resort: The location, resort facilities, amenities, resort property, room experience, breakfast, and onsite restaurants. And most of all the staff are second to none in my experience. The most pleasant, knowledgeable, and accommodating staff I've met. If you're fortunate you'll get your introductory tour led by "Professor" Astrid!

I would give a 4.5* if I could - overall we loved our stay here, the resort has excellent facilities for families - we loved the water park (adults included) and the games/arcade room which was perfect to end the night or escape the sun! Couple of things that docked points - depending on where your villa is, you have to order a buggy to pick you up. Sometimes it’s quick, sometimes you’re waiting up to 7-10mins - that was a tad frustrating esp with a toddler. Also the accessibility around the pool to restaurant / bathroom is only one bridge over the pool, so if you’re on the other side it’s quite a walk - they should have QR codes or staff at different check points to order from. The main room and second room are on opposite ends of the villa, so not ideal if you have young kids, our toddler ended up sleeping in our room and the kitchen space is also separate which isn’t ideal - so layout is a bit off but not a deal breaker! Otherwise the rooms were great! Loved having the private pool too!

More like a 4 than a 5 star hotel. Staff were professional. They seemed to take safety seriously with lifeguards in the pool and beach. Located on a nice part of the beach. There weren't enough sun loungers, but they probably cant add more due to limited space. Most sun loungers were "reserved" by guests with towels before 8am and sometimes the reservers wont be seen anywhere near the lounger for hours. Breakfast had a good variety and no long queues for most items, but the hygiene standards weren't great - food was fresh, just that the way food was displayed and accessed wasn't the best. For example, they have this huge tub of ice that keeps getting refilled, but u can see the melted ice at the bottom of the bucket had probably been there for a couple of hours and contained debris. An ice machine would have been better. The fruits were also just left in the open and probably should have been covered/ in refrigerated section and split into individual portions (pretty sure I got a tummy bug from here). Some amenities were dated/broken -e.g. ping ping rackets and table football. For a hotel this size, I think there should be more sport/fun ammenities, e.g. there was only one ping pong table, always with a long queue. Good location - nearby restaurants/ mini-marts, quick taxi ride to sunset town. The rooms were also a good size and well maintained. For quality, the price seemed fair, and if the hotel can address the above issues, it'd be a really great stay.
