We were really nicely surprised when we arrived here.||||The pace has a really nice feel to it and it was friendly and quirky.||||It was a shame that although they had blackboards out on the street advertising food, they said they didn't have any food the night we were here. There are not too many other places around to eat but we found On's and their food was terrific so we were actually glad we didn't eat at Cliffs in the end.||||The bedroom at the front was very big and spacious but a little dark. But that's ok - it lent itself well to the decor with the lovely furniture. The bed was a little hard for us but as we were only here for one night to wait for the ferry so we could withstand that.||||The bar downstairs did seem to stay open quite late so just be aware if you are a light sleeper as noise from the bar did carry up the stairs to the bedrooms||||The shared bathroom looked great. ||Until we came to use it at 7am the following morning. There was no water at any of the outlets - sinks - toilets - shower. We could not flush/shower/douche/clean our teeth. Anything at all. Although my partner went downstairs to report it to the chap who slept in the bar area, when we got down there he had gone back to sleep and ignored our request to turn the water back on.||||The 2 lads who run it are really characters and into their Bob Marley! They were actually really nice chaps but even though they were all charm the evening before with promises of assistance to get to the ferry the next morning, when it actually came down to it, we were let down on this point and had to hail a taxi on the street. In itself that was not a problem, we just wished they didn't make promises they couldn't keep.||||Although we really liked this place, we felt that the 2 hosts enjoy the bar side of running it, far more than they enjoy the other aspects of running a guesthouse. ||||If you just want a place to sleep and to hang out in a bar and make friends, then this is the place for you. If you need any other services during your stay, then I would recommend you stay at On's just around the corner.
The flower-power B&B has a fantastic atmosphere!||||Each of the 12 bedrooms is decorated in an individual style, featuring traditional Thai furniture, beautiful paintings on the walls, and maybe even a little Buddha on your nightstand. The shared bathrooms are decorated with beautiful driftwood pieces and creative art hand-made by the owner. ||||The open-air Art Cafe in the backyard is the perfect hideaway: Lush tropical greenery, bubbling water fountain, bamboo wind chimes, colorful pillows, reggae music… What more do you need to chill out?! Kitchen is open from 7.30am to 10.30pm, starting with a proper English breakfast and serving traditional Thai food during the day. And if you feel like chatting with your friends back home, there is Wi-Fi throughout the entire B&B.||||The owners, Cheer is the perfect host he will pick you up at the ferry, treat you during the car trip with a juicy pineapple, remember that you like your coffee in the morning extra strong, and even organize a Thai Massage for you: Performed in a cozy Sala underneath a canopy of colorful saris, with spicy incense in the air, and lounge music in the background, the skillful kneading and stretching is a bliss! ||||Ladies can get their nails done at a nearby Beauty Parlor. Although self-taught, the beautician, Koy, is so talented, she could easily get a job in any five star Spa. There are not many shopping opportunities in Satun. But if you look closely, you will come across great bargains! Fancy new sunglasses or designer frames? Top Chroen Optical has great offers of ‘buy one get one free’; the professional staff will happily measure your eyesight, and fit your new frames with the correct lenses within one hour only.||||Ready for a quick trip to the Thai coast of the Andaman Sea? Only 15 km away is a dreamlike beach. Go for a walk, enjoy the view, and laze around in one of the tiny cabanas on the shore.
This is personal kind of quest house and it can not be called a hotel. Room was pretty nice but i had no tv mentioned booking.com, i paid breakfast in advance but did not get it and tab water is available on at the night time. No private bathrooms or toilets. Some hard bed and dirty balcony.||||Bar was nice with a pool table and man working behind of the desk really personal looking reggae man:) Somehow i smelled the sin and "mari";)||||Do not buy ferry tickets 400 baths to Langkawi in the bar, in a ferry pier you will find it cheaper.
|The good. |Nothing exceptional except for the Friendly staff/boss manning the shop. You are able to get ferry tickets to Langkawi from the shop but it's nothing exceptional since almost every guesthouse is offering the same offering. Rates are at 450 baht per pax (car ride to ferry terminal plus ferry ticket)||The bad. |Our room can't be locked from the outside, apparently the last guy lost the lock keys. We left our locked bags in the unlock room but I was uneasy throughout. (He insist that his house is safe and he's watching his premises). Room was in working condition but there was no TV set in the room. Do note that it can get pretty noisy downstairs due the the fact that you are staying on top of a working bar. Lights are pretty dim in the room. ||The ugly |Being a fan of ensuite bathrooms, I was none too pleased with the lack of one. Note that this was despite we had a confirmation of one with hostel world. Cold water was still cold when I turned on the heater in the common bathroom. ||Despite taking confirmation from us early for the ferry tickets, we were told on arrival that the ferry was full. This was not properly communicated at all and we wasted almost a whole Saturday stranded at the tamalang pier. ||The Apple has definitely fell far from the tree. (This is a 2011 TripAdvisor award winner ). Due to the lack of selections for accommodations in Satun, you will almost definitely come across this guesthouse when you do your booking. Stay somewhere else if you could you can find better. ||Verdict: it's not unliveable by any means but neither nowhere near a good standard. (2 out of 5 stars) |||||
Lots of room, the rooms have ac or fan. Quite dark room due to the dark wood. Very pretty decor and furniture, quite quirky in ways. ||Shared toilet. ||No really security on the doors to the rooms. ||The guy who runs it was not very helpful, we asked for a menu, as outside they said they served food. No food he said. ||We asked how to get to the ferry terminal and what time, he looked blankly at us and said his friend would be here soon to help. He never turned up, we ended up catching a local taxi in the morning to the harbour, cheap 100 bhat for the two of us. ||We visited another place On's, few bhat more expensive, but they had food, much more helpful.
I booked this place at a very last minute. Arrived here after a bit of search around because the locals doesn't know the name in English. ||||The room was spacious. The common bathroom was huge. Artistically ornate. Rustic atmosphere. Lek was really helpful in many ways. ||||Will recommend this to anyone if u like some difference in lodging.
Thanks to the crew at Cliffs Mans had a crack.||These guys will look after you and make sure you are looked after.||The rooms are immaculate and the facilities are smart and kept clean. ||If the kitchen is open make sure you order you won't regret spending the extra ringgit.||||Thats lads for the hospitality and good luck for the future.
Great place for lunch!! Wonderful food and live music!! Plus beautiful art on the walls to enjoy or buy! They have the best chicken salad ever, which can be ordered as a sandwich or a salad. Great coffee too!
Отличный вариант для ночевки. Когда мы приехали, там администратором был канадец Джозеф, готовил вкуснейшие стейки, много общался с нами и с гостями, с утра они с хозяином отвезли нас в порт, дешевое чем на такси, хотя им было тяжко вставать после приема поздних гостей. Номер нормальный, туалет на этаже, вечером местные приходят поиграть в бильярд. Для ночевки перед паромом самое оно, просто и не дорого..
