Sea view. Garden Sea View Resort - Reviews. What is personal data

Check-in.
As elsewhere at 14 o'clock. We arrived in the dark, so we didn't wait. A deposit of 2000 baht is taken immediately and only in this currency. There is an exchange office nearby (the dollar varied from 30.70 to 30.00 during our stay. For comparison with the street - from 31.40 to 31. Euros, rubles, etc. are also changed. The ATM in the lobby was not used, as in principle anywhere did not use). When checking out (at 12:00) it is returned, but we used it to zero (ate in the hotel cafe). The luggage room is a corner in the staff office.

Room.
We took the Deluxe Sea View during the early booking period - and settled in it. 4804 - a large building to the right of the main one, if you stand facing the main entrance. Quite spacious room on the 8th floor with 1 large bed and 1 small bed. There is a table and chairs - you can take it out to a modest balcony. Opposite the bed is a desk with a non-flat TV with a bunch of Thai and Chinese channels. We watched channel from Pegas and Russia 1 (poor image quality) in Russian, and there is also channel 49 - popular films in English without ads. Also in the room there is a mini-fridge with bottles of drinking water (volume 0.5, the number depends on the number of residents), which are updated every day for free (if you leave for the whole day and leave them intact - do not wait for additional ones, so we always carried them away even to the beach) and a very creaky wardrobe with bathrobes, slippers and umbrellas. (Regarding this product - do not even think about using it, these things are closely monitored, so if you take them out of the room, spoil them, God forbid you want to take them away as a souvenir - they will be fined. Moreover, these are not disposable things, and they are washed or no - I definitely won't volunteer to speak.) Also, there is a pretty good safe in the closet (if you don't have one in your room, welcome to the safe at the reception). The room has a kettle with cups / spoons, next to it are tea / coffee / sugar / dry cream bags. It's all free and replenished.
The bathroom with toilet is also spacious, with a large mirror. There is a hairdryer, shower kits (shampoos, soaps, hats, etc.). The bathroom itself is not the first freshness, but not critical. What was more surprised is that if you use a shower, it is not removable and not adjustable, my young man, to put it mildly, experienced difficulties, since he was very tall, I had to bend down all the time.
There are a bunch of lights in the room, but I never found out where most of them turn on (most likely half are broken).
Air conditioning. Really noisy, but not as scary as some of the reviews of tourists. The next day you get used to it and do not hear it until the end of the rest. But it is very functional. You can cool the room down to 10 degrees in 2-3 minutes, very convenient!
Soundproofing has been worse. In the room itself, the neighbors were not heard, in the bathroom there is a little water and flush. But what really made noise was some kind of mechanism from the 1st or auxiliary floor on the 5th day of rest. Suddenly you hear the sound of switching on, as if the mechanism came into action, after a couple of seconds the final sound - the owners of not silent washing machines will understand - as if things fall when the drum is scrolling. And at night it greatly bothered me, I woke up. What it is, they did not find out, not the receptionist speaks exclusively in Thai, they decided not to waste time and effort.

Cleaning
She's gone. Towels are changed every couple of days, every day they are folded neatly and the bed is made, garbage is taken out, hygiene items are added. Bed linen was changed 2 times in 10 days. (According to our tourists living in the main building on the 2nd floor - they changed every day). Get ready for the fact that there will always be dust in the room - this is the norm for Thais. Theft was not found. But they decided not to tip. Once they left them, the cleaning lady took them, and did her job worse than usual.

Food
They cook more for tourists, once the spicy meat for the whole rest was caught in the hotel.
Buffet breakfasts. Every day scrambled eggs, vegetables, fruits, pastries, tea, coffee, rice, 2 types of sausages and tasteless ham, as well as two types of soup. Hot change (noodles, meat, vegetables). Sometimes they cook something extra, but not every day (scrambled eggs, Thai soup, etc.). There are also decent juices, water, cold / hot milk.
You can have lunch / dinner in the restaurant in the lobby or 2 cafes by the pool (the menu is the same, you can use a deposit).
Sweet pancakes are also made by the pool.
Prices are higher than on the street by about 15%, they cook about the same.

Territory
Big, green, lively. It’s alive! There are many birds that cry / sing / chirp from morning until 3-4 o'clock. Sometimes it's nice, sometimes it's annoying. According to the mood of the singers) Roosters and cats are running, dogs are running along the beach. A squirrel was seen in the palm zone. Lizards mostly appear in the evening and crawl in the hotel corridors. You can take a lot of photos without leaving the hotel.

Beach.
Pretty big. The water is surrounded by a floating fence, so there is almost no debris. Sand, shells, stones. You can play volleyball and beach soccer. Sunbeds around the beach under palm trees, but they can't stand on the sand itself. The Temple of Truth is visible from almost all points of the beach. What surprised me was the lack of lifeguards! So be careful. Fish, sometimes biting plankton, swim in the water.

Pool.
One on the territory of the bungalow (small)
The second is between the main building and the beach (large, two-level with a waterfall and islands of palm trees). There are also sun loungers / palm trees around. There is a small area for kids. Very nice.

Wi-fi
This is a big mystery. There are a lot of distribution points, only one lobby works normally, and as all tourists write - in the lobby. But to be honest, it doesn't have to be day after day. Sometimes it was possible to catch by the pool, sometimes even at breakfast, and sometimes in the lobby it did not work. You constantly have to re-enter. Very uncomfortable. But at the same time, the signal reached the beach for several days.

Service
He's not here. So if you want something, I don’t envy. More precisely, you will either be poorly understood or not understood at all. During my vacation, I had a birthday. I didn't get the bonus from the hotel. And they ordered a gift from Russia (flowers), so they were thrown under the door of the room. What is the problem to put in the number itself, I do not understand. It was very unpleasant. We didn’t go for a massage, they didn’t buy anything in the shops at the hotel, the gym was the last century. There are no huge signs "Toilet" or "Shower", so search and you will find. Beach towels are ok but ancient.

Other
Mostly Slavs and Chinese rest.

Flight
Azurami flew. There, on a large plane, in which there was almost no room (heavy), the food was mediocre. Thank you for giving a sleeping kit (pillow, mask, earplugs) free of charge. Back - on a small one, but at least there was a place, the food is much better. Keep in mind, if you fly the same way - 100% charter, get ready to change the time and date of departure, to refuel in India on the way back. (And then 9 hours of flight changes to 11).

Tour operator
Anex. They greeted us well, gave us water and tourist sim cards (for calling a guide or urgently somewhere, a day of free messengers opens up, there is an opportunity not to sit in the Lobby and not get nervous, but to go to the local supermarket "7/11" and for 89 baht you they will connect the Internet for a week, however, we did not use it). The guide on the way told a lot and completely. The return trip to Russia was terrible. It's just some kind of test. Picked up 6 hours before departure (perhaps we were just unlucky) and froze on the bus.
Hotel guide. THIS IS A SEPARATE TOPIC. I haven’t met such a boor for a long time. The name is Orhan. Do not even think about going to a meeting with him, if you do not plan to go on excursions with Anex. I still remember him with horror. For 2 hours at a meeting, he talked about his past, some friends and friends, and he was reluctant to answer all our questions. If asked, he betrayed aggression. He pushed 5 excursions about which he himself considered it necessary to tell. And he discouraged all the desire to go anywhere at all. He answered questions about other excursions that were interesting to us in such a way that he made it clear "You won't go there and that's it." You know, this is not a guide, but some kind of huckster, whose key argument is "You won't find cheaper", which, of course, is not true. Persuaded us to go on a free sightseeing tour. I read in the reviews that this is a waste of time that they carry around the shops. But I didn't think ALL DAY. ABSOLUTELY ALL DAY STORE TO STORE. And here is a huge deuce to both Aneks and Orhan. They just stole the whole day. But if you love shopping, go ahead. Of course, it's not all bad. Between the shops, the guide told quite interesting information (I remind you, this is our first trip to Thailand, maybe that's why it was interesting) We visited: an orchard (tasted fruits, walked, tasted exotic teas), a snake farm (looked at a snake, a snake show (pretty funny , you will not regret it), there was an opportunity for an additional fee to try a snake, tasted a snake tincture), Big Buddha Hill (but since we were brought there at the end and at dusk, it was not possible to fully enjoy it). And ending with the topic of the hotel guide. He gave false information on the flight. On our call with questions, they received a bunch of "Dear" (this is his favorite word) and rudeness, sent us to the Anex hotline to sort it out ourselves. In general, they called Anex, Azur air, looked on the Internet, in short - they found out everything themselves, they also wrote for the rest of the guests at the information stand, and Orkhan never showed up at the hotel. My advice is not to mess with, so as not to spoil your mood.

Infrastructure around.
I advise you to study the reviews of the hotel with google maps in front of your eyes. I did just that, so I knew about everything about the area. The hotel is located in the Naklua area and there is one road from it, which is where all the shops and cafes are located, there are excursion offices. This is a tourist area, therefore, as everyone said, it is more expensive than in the city. But in principle, the prices are reasonable. You can take a Pattaya card from the first Family Mart for free. Two main tips - many goods are cheaper in the pharmacy (located at the bend of the main road) than in the supermarket, there is also a yellow exchanger - it is more profitable than the first one, which is closer to the hotel. We ate (mostly) at the Coconaut Cafe (from the tourist reviews below). At the entrance there is a specific smell that you get used to, super wi-fi, good-natured hosts, sports broadcasts and a large selection at very reasonable prices!
The location of the hotel is really remote from the city center, you will have to take 2 tuk-tukes or taxis.
For children, the hotel has nothing but a swimming pool.

Excursions
I studied this issue in advance, so we went from Russian guys: Discovery 7in1 (entertainment, almost everyone offers a similar one in Pattaya in different variations. Here you can find zoos, plantations, farms, and temples. Saturated and fed), Military Beach ( Or the Blue Lagoon - an incredibly beautiful beach on the mainland), and went to the island of Ko Sichang (the island of luck, just an incredible journey ending on another blue beach). Who cares more - contact me, I'll throw the link, they have a whole site.

Bottom line.
You can go. This is one of the cleanest bathing hotels in Pattaya, everyone is talking about it. There will be no frenzied parties and some kind of hell, so for a relaxing holiday, if you want not to be touched, it is ideal. I think everyone will find their pros and cons here, and different things will happen to everyone, everything will depend on a dozen factors. We have not been on a beach vacation for a long time, so we had a great rest, and closed our eyes to all the little things. In general, it all depends on your personal plans and desires from the rest, but personally, I could easily come here again =)))

Rested at the hotel in February. Satisfied with the rest at 5, the hotel at 4. The hotel has its own quirks. Well, first of all, the deposit is only in baht. The rate at the hotel is very unprofitable and there is only one exchanger nearby, which must still be reached, God forbid, that it works.… More ▾ Rested at the hotel in February. Satisfied with the rest at 5, the hotel at 4. The hotel has its own quirks. Well, first of all, the deposit is only in baht. The rate at the hotel is very unprofitable and there is only one exchanger nearby, which must still be reached, God forbid, that it works. Therefore, I recommend everyone to change money at least with the guide on the bus, although they also make money on the course, but not like at the airport or at the reception. The most favorable rate will be in the city in the yellow exchange offices.

Where to spend this deposit then? You can eat and drink at the hotel and write the bill to the room, then the amount will be deducted from the deposit. Although, the hotel restaurant is much more expensive than the city and Thai markets, but sometimes too lazy to go somewhere and eat at the hotel. They cook well, delicious.

The hotel is aimed at the Russian contingent (in the bulk), there are many signs and announcements in Russian, the staff understands Russian a little (reception), but if there is any problem, they suddenly cease to understand. There are fines for everything here - God forbid losing the key to the safe, breaking or staining something!

This is the only hotel in the area located on the first line, so all guests from neighboring hotels come here (many hotels are of the same owner), so there may be a problem with sun loungers. Well, as it is, we specially chose a hotel on the first line and on you, we can not find a free sunbed, it was occupied by those who bought a tour in three on the 3rd line and came here (because the hotels have an agreement between themselves). Also, the same guests do not hesitate to swim in "our" pool.

The pool is not bad, but when relaxing with children on the pool, keep in mind that there are very deep zones here (1, 8 m), so that the eyes and eyes so that the child does not flop there.

There is a beautiful area around the pool, many flowering and fragrant trees. The beach is not bad, the views are simply stunning - the temple of Truth.

But part of the territory to the right of the sea is simply stupid, some kind of forest with trees and not a single shop. It is worth somehow ennobling it or something, organizing recreation areas, in vain it is empty. The trees grow there interesting with aerial roots.

The hotel room we had with a sea view in the main building. I advise everyone to book rooms with a sea view, since you are checking into a hotel on the beach. The furniture in the room is from the past, but the equipment is not bad. Everything you need is there: a tea set, baths, a bathrobe and slippers, even an umbrella. Internet only at the reception (as a result, they connected the package to a local SIM card and were everywhere with the Internet).

There is one path from the hotel, along which there are several cafes, fruit shops and shops, on the same side and an exchange office. Along the lanes you can reach the highway (Naklua) - the road to the city (by tuk-tuk for 10 baht). Almost near the Orthodox church, we found a Thai market.

The location of the hotel allows access to the fish market. I advise everyone to visit - everything is splashing in troughs, they will immediately cook you for 30 baht on the grill, in the park next to you you can sit to eat.

For the rest of the entertainment, you need to go to the center - this is Walking Street and shopping centers. And, of course, there are certainly excursions, there are so many of them in Pattaya, it's difficult to decide right away. I would like to go everywhere.

At home, I still started looking for trips, and of all the local companies, I was more inclined to Nika Travel. Upon arrival at the hotel, we contacted the manager, he came to our hotel, we made an advance payment, the rest was paid when boarding the bus. Took a guided tour of the action and got a free trip to the Lagoon (how great it is!).

All liked it! I will not describe for a long time. At the hotel they did not take the guide from the guide, it is not profitable at all (although they say our prices are lower than on the "street" and "promotions", but there is no benefit in the compartment), we never take excursions from a tour operator, from local firms always have better quality and price.

Rest in Pattaya is interesting - we liked it, there is a desire to return, maybe even to this hotel, although its policy makes it a little strained on vacation (deposit, lack of internet in the room, safe at the reception).

For a long time we chose a hotel on KoChang. We opted for Sea View and made the right decision. An excellent hotel for the price-performance ratio. Large rooms, in my opinion, all have a sea view, as they look to one side. We stayed in the superior, which is in the main building, there were two exits from the room - to the building and to the beach. There are several buildings, located on a slope, but the accessibility is good, the upper building (where breakfast is) can be reached either by funicular (large cabin-lift, 5 minutes and up), or by electric car (the delivery service works quickly), or on foot. Breakfast is excellent for every taste. Here you can find both European and Thai cuisine, a lot of pastries, only 5 types of omelet-eggs. Moreover, the dishes are constantly eaten (both at the beginning and at the end of breakfast time). Two swimming pools, not counting those in each villa. Pool one onshore on the beach, the second at the upper building. Two restaurants. We had lunch and dinner ashore at Sunset. Excellent cuisine, service, food service. Everything you have tasted is very tasty. Especially Tomyam, crab spaghetti, tom hakai, pathai. Active rest - kayaks, boards, badminton. Great beach. Special thanks and thanks to the service staff - everything is very kind, professional, not intrusive. It can be seen that a well-coordinated team is working. We had a great rest at your hotel!…

Somehow we didn’t get the job right at once with this hotel: at first we could not pay for a long time through the hotel's website with a card, it gives an error and that's it. After several days of correspondence, the payment eventually went through. Upon arrival at the hotel, for the first time I was faced with the requirement to show the card with which the hotel had held funds and unexpectedly - you cannot show the card - pay again, we will return the previously paid one after 45 days, despite the fact that the hotel requested full information about the card when booking and paying ... Attempts to explain themselves led to the understanding that the receptionist is unfriendly, customer focus in the high season is postponed to a dark corner. The location is peculiar - between large beaches, which creates a certain tranquility, but at the same time, a variety of the same fruits offered by the hotel on the beach is clearly inferior to beaches with more free access. From the beach there is a beautiful view of the sea and rocks - here the hotel lives up to its name. A gorgeous view also from the restaurant plus several places are organized around the territory where you can also enjoy the sea view. The hotel is ancient, elevation changes, electric cars and a cable car are a very pleasant solution, one of the advantages of this hotel. Two pools, bewilderment was caused by the lack of lighting and overlap) after sunset. A large green area, birds, monkeys, and the monkeys are quite greyhounds, a sort of gang of small gopniks collecting food rent from balconies)). They say that somewhere there is a person scattering them from a slingshot, but in a week we have not met such, but the monkeys met every day. Breakfast is good, sea and sunset views from the restaurant. The dinner menu is scarce. Baramundi fish is delicious, fried and steamed, springrolls with duck as an appetizer are not bad. The beach bar has a small selection of drinks. A big plus is that there are few mosquitoes. A small minus - heaps of dry cut branches are scattered in places on the territory of the forest-park zone, although I may have misunderstood the color of the green zone of this hotel. From Friday to Sunday there is an influx of Chinese tourists, which is probably why these days there are not enough sun loungers on the beach for those who come closer to 12. The Family deluxe room is spacious of two rooms, one bathroom. There is only 1 key for a 4-bed room, and one hanger), there are 4 more, robes hang on them, somehow not enough even taking into account the robes. Complimentary bottle water per day. Beach towels are not changed either on the beach or on the pool, only in the room. But this did not create a big problem, since we have assembled a replacement kit. The view from the room is mostly covered by trees. A TV in a hotel is usually not a necessary thing, due to the small number of Russian-language channels and the presence of other pleasures for the eyes, but then we thought about the tradition of watching the President's New Year's address. The size of a TV set from childhood - now they are, at best, on refrigerators in the kitchen, because from three meters you can no longer see anything. I do not comment on the celebration of NG in itself, NG without snow, Christmas trees and Santa Claus is not the same. But the sparkling wine that ended in the bar by the middle of the holiday is not at all our way). The quality of room cleaning is decent, no complaints. But on the beach with cleaning it is worse, like the territory of the hotel, guests start to go to the beach around 7 o'clock, and the incredibly slow 3 ladies with long breaks for conversations only at 8 in the morning begin to selectively sweep the area and wipe the sun loungers. The staff in this hotel and in the restaurant can observe a picture: the waiters, turning away from the customers, are discussing something funny for a long time. One gets the impression that, despite the peak season, not enough employees were hired and control over their work was not organized. One Saturday, Saturday Karl !!!, after 8 am, when the beach was already partially filled with people, a sand sifting motor was launched on it, which, with a roar, gasoline stench and sand dust, brought new sensations to the relaxation process with clean air and quiet the sound of the surf))) This pleasure lasted an hour. The same story repeated itself on Sunday. Service on the beach is also not a fountain - white wine ordered 2 glasses, among other things. After 10 minutes a lady came with a menu - which one is white? they chose - showed a finger in the menu of chardonnay, ran away repeating - chardonnay, having fun with something, after another 10 minutes came running - no chardonnay, pointed another white finger - ran away for the order. As a result, she brought one red wine glass😩. In my opinion, the quality of service is rather low, but this trouble is fully compensated by the views and territory. The sea is shallow, the bottom is with pebbles and corals. Rare fish. Jellyfish and other monsters have not been seen. Warm and transparent. The kids are fine, the adults are too small. It should be noted that until 10 o'clock in the morning, things left unattended on the beach loungers are carefully collected and referred to the cafe, so it makes little sense to take the sun loungers in advance and go for breakfast. WiFi - 3 connections per room, constantly flies. The first J.E.Seafood in the city twice dined at the restaurants mentioned on the Satang website - spicy, despite the request of nospicy, scallops, tough steamed fish and delicious rather large boiled shrimp, I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. The second - Filou, more even a cocktail bar, pleasantly impressed by the choice of cocktails and other drinks and cuisine. Delicious, properly cooked asparagus with seafood, grilled squid, fried perch, shrimps - we definitely liked it. The menu is quite large. The selection of drinks is also wide. Party atmosphere, live music closer to midnight. We went here twice - we never regretted anything. After 18, there are not always free tables - you have to wait. The Booking rating of Sea view Koh Chang and the Tripadvisor awards for this hotel are completely incomprehensible to me. Not that a bad hotel, but there is definitely a much better one, so it seemed to me that the ratings were greatly overstated. There is no desire to be in this again. The quality of service for the cost of living in my opinion does not match. Although perhaps this opinion was formed under the influence of absolutely heavenly sensations received in Shantaa Koh Kood, where I wrote this review and about which I will write separately.…

Dear VitSt16, Greetings from the Sea View Koh Chang! Thank you for taking the time to leave us such an extensive piece of feedback. We are sorry to hear that we didn "t meet your expectations. We are unaware of the issues you encountered when trying to book and pay and we are currently investigating if this was an error from our website or if it was related to your card provider . The reason we ask to see the physical card that was used to make the reservation is to verify that you were the owner of that card and to check the signature at the back, this is a common procedure when booking and paying in advance and it is explained during the booking process and in the booking confirmation. We are sorry if you felt that our staff was unfriendly because they requested to see the original card however, this is a standards procedure for them to do as we otherwise could be subjected to chargeback from the bank. Our private beach is usually one of our most positive talking points amongst our guests however, it seems as though you didn "t quite enjoy it. You mentioned that the beach has poor accessibility but we fail to understand why as you can walk from our private beach to the next town center within minutes. We are pleased to hear that you liked our resort views and facilities including the funicular (the only one on the island) and our golf carts. Our swimming pools have the lights on only until closing time as we close them at night for security purposes. We have plenty of natural wildlife in Koh Chang and the monkeys are one of them. You can find them anywhere on the island and we cant do more than scare them away should they start being intrusive and we have staff constantly walking around to prevent such situations, however, it is impossible for us to control all the monkeys that move freely through the jungle we are located in. Thank you for pointing out that our breakfast and the views from our Lighthouse restaurant is amazing. It is surely the restaurant with the best view on the island and we are well-known for it. Our menus are very extensive and depending on what food you feel like eating you can visit our Lighthouse Restaurant (Thai) or our Sunset Restaurant (Thai and Western). In terms of room amenities, we provide as standard 5 hangers for the wardrove however, more are always available upon request. Pool towels are available at the room, reception and our Sunset Restaurant and it is indicated on the information sheet placed on top the beach towels in your room. We are glad to read that you liked the cleanliness of your bedroom and that you saw that we have 3 staff members cleaning the beach since the early times of the morning, we will pass your comments to our Executive Housekeeper in order to speak to the public area cleaners and to retrain if necessary. We do clean our beach regularly and we understand this may be of an inconvenience to you but we believe that most guests appreciate that our private beach is one of the cleanest in the island and that is because we work hard to get it as clean as possible ... We hope this last experience with us hasn "t permanently tarnished your perception of our resort and we hope you give us a second chance to prove to you that this has just been an exception. Best Regards, Tom Storup Rooms Division Manager

All reviews are fair - the views are gorgeous, convenient communication with the beach despite the mountain, the availability of the nearest population (three times shuttle one way from the hotel, or you can walk), a private beach with free sun loungers and umbrellas, 2 sets of beach towels, water in the room and the gym are free, luxurious (and already varied!) breakfasts. All this is in a real jungle, very green and beautiful. Yes, there are monkeys (rarely, because they scare away) - it is solved by calling a person with a slingshot)), there are mosquitoes (few) - it is solved by fumitox, the prices on the beach are too high, but here is a matter of convenience. And there is no need to assume that the room has just been built just for you. The hotel is excellent and highly recommended to visit.

Great hotel on the mountain with its own funicular. Magnificent views of everything - sea, jungle, waterfall. Great beach. Smallish at low tide. We got to the corals of a neighboring island. We lived in a large building near the sea. Fine. To Kai Bey walk 15 minutes along the beach in the shade. You need to go up near the reception desk to the barrier, go through the bridge and immediately turn left. Pointer to Porn Bungalow. Not a joke. Return to the sea and go to the pier with boats. Then, along the road, go to the right to 7 Elevan. There is a shuttle bus 3 times a day. Sometimes it gets crowded. In the low season, an ambush with exchangers. Clone Prao has a bank and is open 7 days a week. This hotel has a few nuances to pay attention to. Footwear! Constant inclines, feet sweating or after showering. Walking the slope is easy in the wet seasondangerous! Monkey!!! Nice, fluffy brazen thieves with decent teeth. Any scratch from this beast can be troublesome to health. This is the only serious reason not to come here with small children. And for romantics there is a romantic road! Check the time of the blooming frangipani (magnolia type) at the hotel. There will be a lot of photos and impressions. The rest is in other reviews.…
