甲米盛泰樂安達特維水療及度假村 Centara Anda Dhevi Resort and Spa

We'll probably visit again some time

The staff was generally very friendly. The location is away from busy street and quiet, which I was looking for. (It is not hotel's fault that in room next to ours, some drunken fool got home at 3am and then started yelling into his phone for 30 minutes... Unfortunately, inconsiderate idiots like our "neighbor" are going on vacations, too). Despite my "complaints" below, I enjoyed our stay. If below's issues were fixed I would rate it a 5 star instead of a 4 star.

At start of breakfast time restaurant is understaffed, hence one waits for coffee, etc. After about 8am sufficient staff is present and helpful. One thing I did not like is that no late checkout (just an hour later than normal, at 1pm) was not granted, due to "being fully booked". I have spent 150-200 nights every year in hotels (since about 1997) and know that such a request can be honored, no matter how fully booked it is. Check in is at 2pm ... gives staff a full hour to clean the room... I don't remember the last time when a late checkout request has not been accomodated. Wifi in room is too slow. Charging 60% MORE for airport transfer than a (clean) taxi (800 baht vs 500 baht) is a little unreasonable, I think.
