Poseidon Resort

Schön gelegenes Resort in direkter Nähe zum Tanote Bay. Die Häuser sind schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen, und die Einrichtung ist abgenutzt, für Thailand aber eine schöne Unterkunft. Durch die Lage in der Vegetation gibt es entsprechend viele Insekten, welche auch mal ihren weg in die Häuser finden, das ist aber auch nur schwer zu vermeiden. Wir hatten einen schönen Aufenthalt und würden hier wieder Buchen.

Fin lille terrasse med “jungle vibe”. Personalet virkede uoplagte og var meget lidt hjælpsomme, man kunne vente længe på servering og restaurant lukket mellem 16-18. Ydermere en stemning af at personalet var lidt irriterede på gæsterne, rullede øjne da de kom med en sodavand istedet for vand der var bestilt og viste tydeligt at det var træls at gå frem og tilbage med byttepenge, der var ikke en stemning af at være velkommen som gæst. Ved indtjekning virkede det også som om de irriterede sig over at skulle rejse sig. Stranden ud for var præget af en del plastikaffald i vandet og i vandkanten.

We stayed at Poseidon Resort for 10 days and loved it. I was late to contact them about pick up from the pier so was entirely our fault to have to take a taxi , if you contact them.in advance they will come and get you. One of the brothers had been waiting for us at the resort for our late arrival and checked us in. We had a lovely bungalow, not too far from the beach. Air-con, fan, comfy bed, even a fridge , a spacious bathroom with shower that had hot water as well , and a balcony with a hammock. All very clean. The restaurant has inside and outside seating areas, great choices for breakfast and lunch or early dinner. It closes at 5pm so a bit too early for dinner for us but we just went to the place next door. They catered amazingly for our dietary requirements (we are both vegan) , even had a choice of plant based milks. Loved the pineapple and cashew nut dish which is served in half a pineapple! We were initially a bit upset to see some small cages hanging in the restaurant area but it turned out that they are looking after and nursing some of the injured and orphaned squirrels of the island! They actually have some feeding stations out for the squirrels and you can see them really close up. They also have a filtered water refill tank so you dont have to buy a new bottle each time which reduces the plastic pollution. The staff and owners were super friendly and we felt very welcome and they helped us whenever we needed anything. Loved it there!

Clean room, comftable bed and good location very close to the beach. Just be aware that the bungalow is in nature, so a few animals like ants will find their way into the room!

I think this place does not deserve the negative reviews it gets. First, there are NO accommodations on the beach. It's a small island; almost everything is on a hill. Cleaning is only every 3-4 days or on request; this isn't a 5-star hotel! This is the ONLY truly Green Accommodation I have encountered; the owner deserves respect & gratitude for trying so hard against the wave of the non-caring. The staff is friendly; they are doing the best they can. The food is decent. The room was much more than I expected. I was happy with my choice and would choose this place again.
