Somkiet Buri Resort & Spa

Accommodation and facilities:
Wonderful holiday! We stayed for 14 nights and loved every minute of it. Somkiet Buri is a beautiful resort, rooms lovely (we had a family room which was spacious, well furnished and immaculately maintained by the army of cleaners that came through like a whirlwind each morning!) The pool is gorgeous, the guy who does the massage is a genius and Rak the general manger is an extremely helpful and attentive host. We were even there for the recent Tsunami warning and were so impressed by the way that the Ao Nang authorities (but even more so the staff at Somkiet Buri) conducted the evacuation, we had two small children with us too which could have been a nightmare but we were so well looked after throughout (thanks Mom!) and really felt safe. Songkran was also amazing (well worth visiting when this festival happens next year - especially if you re 40 going on 8), and even 90% of the guests at Somkiet were smiley and friendly too - all around a holiday not to forget!

Reservation service:
Excellent. Everything that was said about the residence was 100% correct and the whole process was professional and efficient. Thanks very much!

Ihana viidakkomainen hotelli. Runsaasti erillaisia eläimiä alueella,kuten kaloja, liskoja ja sammakoita. Rauhallinen sijainti ja mukava henkilökunta aamiaisella. Lyhyt matka keskustaan ja rannalle. Siivous olisi voinut olla tehokkaampaa.

Somkiet Buri Resort & Spa

Accommodation and facilities:
All in all a pleasant resort to stay. Spa prices for such things as massage where far to high - reduce them close to what other massage places take and I for one would have taken a massage or two there. Pool area was nice - but put install a system where the guests can request food or drink services. Otherwise lovely and the jungle feeling of the resort sets it out from many others. We enjoyed ourselves!

Reservation service:
Simple, easy - recommend them as agents! Suggest they make sure that their suppliers have better control of things as the booked transfer from Krabi airport to Ao Nang was not handled particularly well - even though they sorted it out in the end.

Accommodation and facilities:
Fint hotell, fantastiska omgivningar och härlig pool. Mysig restaurang och frukost. Inte så barnvänligt med träspångar att gå på och djup pool. Stort plus för tyst och lugnt trots nära till allt. Max 300 meter till havet och longtailbåtarna. Stort rum men dåligt med förvaring...gratis vatten och frukt på rummet varje dag.

2nd Visit to the Somkiet. Good Place to stay. Like the Pool side rooms. The Bathrooms need a little work, The Shower is over the bath but the shower curtin does not stop water from going everywhere. Need an exhaust fan in the bathrooms also. Over all I really like this place. Great Gardens & Great Pool. The staff are helpful. I wish the restaurant was non smoking though and some of the guest could be more considerate where smoking is concerned.

Reservation service:
Excellent as always! Very helpful with additional e-mail requests and questions.

Accommodation and facilities:
This was my second stay at this hotel following a previous holiday 5 years ago and as a result myself, wife and daughter have high praise as everything was faultless. Our triple room was very spacious, ultra clean and the service was second to none due to the staff s impeccable and very friendly service at all times. In addition, the quality of their restaurant meals are highly commendable. I am rather fussy eater as a rule but due to the fresh and delicious menu variety at a very reasonable price we ate there every evening so highly recommend this resort to anyone thinking of visiting Krabi. The exotic setting also enhanced our stay together with a decent swimming pool that is like a small lagoon, so peaceful and tucked away from the bustle of other hotel locations. It deserves 5 stars and we will definately stay there again.

Reservation service:
Excellent and very straightforward.

Accommodation and facilities:
I read the reviews and everyone gave really good ratings to this hotel. But when I arrived, I was totally disappointed. Ambience of the resort is very nice, jungle like. But the staffs there provide service with no smiles. Not friendly, and very nonchalant. Make up room service was terrible. They cleaned the cups we used in the sink of our bathroom, and was not even washed proper. The saucers were not washed and you could still see sugar and all on it. The extra cushions we used for sleeping, were thrown on the floor when they made the bed. And left ON THE FLOOR. I defintely will not return, there are tons of other hotels/ resorts in Ao Nang... I d rather try them.

As always, Sawadee never fails. I always book through them whenever I am headed to Thailand.

Somkiet Buri Resort & Spa

Accommodation and facilities:
The resort was great overall -we loved the lush jungle like feel to the place and the night pool jacuzzi. Friendly staff and no geckos which was a huge plus for me compared to many other resorts here which have tons of these. Very close to the main street of town and the beach however still removed enough that it is pretty peaceful inside. Only downside was actually the Spa (Lila Spa) which is below average in terms of quality and absolutely overpriced compared to the other spas/massage places in the Ao Nang town. Would not recommend the spa but would definitely recommend the resort itself to anyone.

Reservation service:
Very smooth booking process - it is not the most ideal though to have the credit card charged before the stay has even begun.

Accommodation and facilities:
If, like us, you are looking for an secluded escape from the crowds, while still within walking distance of everything - this is the perfect spot. Absolutely loved the natural setting & very big pool. The resort is very private as it has less rooms, but all the amenities you would expect from a bigger resort. The only downside was the lack of coffee or teamaking facilities in the rooms.

Reservation service:
First time ever we have used this site and the service was beyond my wildest expectations! Very prompt reply on any requests or queries and very easy check-in at hotel.
