Islanda Hideaway Resort

Excellent hotel and facilities.

Overall the hotel es a Petty nice . Nice rooms and views the only exception is the food service. Not a great variety and very expensive for my taste and since there is nothing around the hotel your only option is to eat there which will cost you 450 baht per meal per dish. Extremely expensive and not at all so tastefully.

Overall the hotel itself is nice. The view from the pool is fantastic! Beautiful sunsets. Room size was ok. So now the not so good points, I hate writing bad reviews but this “eco friendly hotel “ has nothing eco about it. The biggest problem we found was the food, overpriced food and drinks. “Happy hour “ is from 2 till 4, why I don’t understand! The food is bland and overpriced. Breakfast is a joke! £11 for breakfast and you can even eat it or if there anything left. The bread is dry and stale no choice just a small choice of fruit ( three things ) croissants ( mini ) and stale. Overall rubbish! This is not! And I mean not! A 4 star hotel. I completely understand this is Thailand but I’d would definitely give it a two star. The manager takes no responsibility for the food they serve the staff are the ones I feel sorry for. Finally it was time to leave thankfully three days was enough we found out a couple got food poisoning The night before so we happy we ever leaving. I am a bit confused why people have given this 5/5! I guess they have never stayed in a 4 star hotel and had Thai food. Go if you wish but make Sure you have lots of money!

The place was great overall but to get there was quite something since there are no major cars or trucks on the island So all transportation is done on motorcycles or mini type vehicles that will hold maybe 3 people and the roads are like just wide sidewalks that are rough in spots. The other thing is that it’s kinda far from shops and restaurants

The Resort is beautiful, however it is very isolated from the Island and it is quite a hassle to get to and from Krabi town. The staff were nice, but not very helpful in solving problems, we reserved some tours where they mentioned staff would be waiting for us in Krabi town, but we were giving no guidance, vouchers or names, and when we arrived no one was waiting fo rus. fortunately we were able to find a local agency to help us with that. All in all the resort is very nice, but if you are planning on doing many of the activities and sightseeing of the surrounding area, another hotel with an easier access might be preferable. Also the food was a bit expensive and not very good, for the amount and the price.
