Lonely Planet review
Situated on 1.8km of white-sand beach with spotless water, this resort provides the perfect antidote to the proverbial 'hard day in the office', whether 'office' equates with a business meeting, a day of committed shopping or sightseeing, or even a day of peace-keeping over the border.While the hotel is still popular with allied officers on R&R, it is equally attractive as a family holiday destination, with plenty of activities for children, and an excellent spa, restaurants and exercise opportunities for mum and dad. Lessons in Thai cuisine at the Blue Elephant Royal Thai Restaurant may occupy those who can't sit still and there is a dive centre here. An apartment or chalet offers good value, but if the cost is still prohibitive, check the current rate for use of the resort's facilities for the day. At 35km and a 20-minute drive south of the city centre, it's pushing it to call it a city resort, but it still makes an easily accomplished afternoon's outing.
