ANDREA stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2007-01-18 and said, "The bungalow are good. But the staff don t clean daily bungalow. You must remember every day that the bungalow must cleaned. This is no good.My Bungalow with air/con and Tv (never watching it)but no freeze.Breakfast not inclused. Many expansive for service."

Laura stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2007-01-03 and said, "I stayed here with my husband for 3 nights during the full moon party period. Overall we got what we paid for, our beach bungalow was £14.00 per night. However, no hot water and the bathrooms were a bit shabby. Overall the staff were friendly and the food was good. This resort is in quite a remote area so if you want bars and shops then stay further south as taxi s are less frequent in this direction and can end up costing you a fortune."

Ariane&Dunia stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2006-08-18 and said, "Very nice stay at the hotel-we had a great time,nice beach,wounderful food, great staff, if you ask for a special you always feel very welcome-we will remember you all(especially BO!)the bungalow was clean and comfortable,we didn t need a TV!

Peter stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2006-08-10 and said, "We were with a group of 11 people and stayed in 5 bungalows next to eachother. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was good as well, especially given the very reasonable prices over there. The only problems we faced were the distance to the port and the poor quality of the rental cars. For people looking for a good, cheep and quiet place to stay on Koh Phangan we highly recommend this resort."

Shane stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2006-08-09 and said, "We did have a probem with the booking. Our booking was in Koh Phangan from Aug. 11th to the 12th. We wanted to stay longer at the Royal Orchid Resort so we changed and confirmed the new dates with Sawadee.com. We changed it to Aug. 9th-12th with the same confirmation we got back from Sawadee.com. So Sawadee.com confirmed our stay. However when we got there one of the staff became a problem for us along with our booking dates. We gave him our confirmation but he said he only had the old reservation(11th-12th) and not the new one(9th-12th). So he gave our room away for those days and then sent us to his friends place up the road. Before I went up the road, I asked him to call Sawadee to see what was the problem. His friends place had no AC, no toliet paper, had many bugs, and no ocean view which I wanted. So I got my money back from his friend and moved into the Mae Haad Resort next door to the Royal Orchid, which had AC, TV and did not have problems with bugs and had great service. However, his friends place was far down the road and of course his friend did not help us take our bags back down the road. The bags were heavy so I took the light bags while my girlfriend waited with the heavy ones down the road. I ask for help from the Royal Orchid employee to help me bring the bags back and he didn t respond to me and kept talking to his friends. So I went to help my girlfriend with the bags because he wasn t going to help us. After we got our bags back down the road into the new resort bugalows I went to talk to him again. I asked him if he had called Sawadee yet, and he said no. So I asked for a refund of the money and to cancel our stay he had for us for the 11th-12th. I understand that the deposit is non-refundable but because he had gave our reservation away I just wanted to get our money back. He then became irrate with me and told me to call Sawadee, I said I didnt have a phone or internet access so of course I couldn t. I then just smiled, said thank, please cancel my reservation and walked away. He then yelled at me as I walked away saying that he only had reservation for the 11th-12th. I didn t say anything more. In short, they didn t honor our reservation and thier service was absent."

Kavita stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2006-08-09 and said, "Rather disappointed with this hotel. Room was too cramped, bed uncomfortable, bathroom crawling with geckos and even spotted a small centipede once. Dresser mirror had obviously not been cleaned. Worst of all was the stench of sewage that seemed to emanate from somewhere near our hut. We were forced to sleep with our door open to help the air circulate. At least Maehaad beach is safe enough for that. Door to our hut didn t even lock properly. Only plus points go to the extra friendly staff!"

Paul stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2006-08-05 and said, "The resort is situated in a lovely bay with ko ma directly opposite. The rooms are clean, water is always hot, tv has a good movie channel for those rainy nights in. A/c room for 600 is an absolute bargain, the food at the restaurant is cheap also and decent. Bikes can be hired if you want to go to other places like hat salat. Not a party place though but a good place to crash and relax. Also loads of dive boats go to ko ma where people snorkel around so if you are into that it should be good for you too."

Loh stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2006-05-13 and said, "I had a pleasant stay at the Royal Orchid. It has an idylic view of the sea, and just a stone s throw from the corals of Koh Ma, plus other nearby convenience stores. The staff were friendly and helpful, the room was comfortable, the toilet was clean, excellent value for money. The only drawback is it is pretty far from the full moon party, but the resort does arrange for taxi services to & back. Defintely a great place for a quiet beach holiday."

Manfred stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2006-03-12 and said, "Very nice staff, perfect location of the bungalows though there is almost no furniture in the room. Good food, competent service at the desk."

kavita stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2006-03-09 and said, "Very good. Cute little bungalow with own mini garden and hammock. Nicely layed out to ensure every bungalow has a view of the sea. A minute walk away to Mae Had Beach. Good choice of eating places and bars around the resort. Bungalow cleaned every 3 days. Nice helpful female staff."

A.G. stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2006-02-10 and said, "Nice rooms with pretty beach, but management was occasionally rude and unreasonably angry at customers, very unpleasant to deal with. We witnessed the manager yelling at customers, unprovoked, on more than one occasion."

Jacinthe stayed at Royal Orchid Resort on 2006-01-08 and said, "This resort was great, though we only stayed for one night. The location is excellent for those seeking peace, as it is in a secluted part of the island. Service was great, room was clean and the hut looked like new!"

Endast enhanduk som täcke. fick betala för toa papperet.Det nyaste var AC anläggningen.Vi trivdes bra, maten var ok.Ã-verpris för denna standard.Vi bodde pÃ¥ ett annat ställe First Villa(underbart ställe) och betalade samma pris som Royal. Royal var rena stenÃ¥ldern jämfört First Villa.Men stranden och vyerna runt omkring Royal var bättre.It is ok to stay a couple of days. It was little dirty around the resort.The beach and the view was OK.We were 15 persons toghether and the children liked it. The price is to high for the standard. The food was ok.Tai massage outside the door, verygood.They installed internet at the restaurant when were there. We could him (The owner) for MR Happyhe said always when we asked for something, if your are happy I am happy.So we where happy!We were the biggest family Mr happy got at his resort ever.Regards Hartwigregards Lasse Hartwig"
