About the hotel:
We had planned to spend our honeymoon at the mandalai hotel, so our expectations were higher than usual.
But as we visited the hotel in advance we deceided to cancel our stay.
So we can t say anything about the hotel, rooms and service itself.
The reason we cancelled is because the hotel is located directly at the main village road (2 meters from street to the reception desk...) and the inner courtyard where the pool is located is open to one side. At that side all the people passing the hotel to reach the beach can watch inside the courtyard through a wire-mesh fence. Just behind the hotel is the boat pier of chalok lam. So it is to be expected to have a lot of busy and loud boat traffic.

About the hotel:
Staff were very friendly and helpful and staff who cleaned the rooms did a good job. Hotel was always nicely presented and clean. However, on the first day i requested staff ensure there were enough umbrellas on the beachside deck for all and that never happened so on occasions we couldnt go down and lie on the deck as not enough shade.
Sheesha restaurant service was fast and food was nice and room service was also good. Portions could have been larger though and the milk in the morning for breakfast was warm and should have been cold.
Transfer charged to pick up and drop to the pier for the boat should have been free or less than the 400 Baht charged since it was staff doing the driving.
For the transfer to the full moon party, most people had to sit in the back tray section of the car and while this is acceptable for locals this was totally unacceptable for foreigners and women especially and i know that many people were offended and greatly surprised by this action. Plus the cost since there was so many in only one car should have been discounted.
Also if more foreign TV channels were available that would have been even better.
Hot water in the shower was usually not hot enough and should be fixed.
Overall i enjoyed my stay and appreciated the cleanliness of the hotel and the friendliness of the staff! Was plenty to do nearby the hotel if desired or could just lie around the pool and beach.

About the hotel:
The hotel is fine but far from being a luxury hotel as it is said on several internet sites.
The beach in front of the hotel is a little dirty with the hotel s sewer that flowes in the water (despite of asking us to keep towels several days for the environnement !!).
The hotel s restaurant is very expensive and the breakfast could be better.
About the reservation service:

About the hotel:
Absolutely unbelievable hotel!!! The rooms are very well appointed, comfortable, with an aire of understated luxury. The staff, both at Mandalai and it s partner restaurant Sheesha, could not have been more helpful and accommodating. The beauty treatments are incredible, I ve patroned some of the best spas in London and Vancouver and have never felt and looked so good. All in all our two week stay is one that I will never forget and can t wait to repeat. I can not recommend this hotel highly enough!!!

About the hotel:
Small hotel with about 12 rooms. I think the smallness made it more welcoming and you knew all the staff. One of the best places i have stayed and i have stayed in quite a few 5 stars. Sea view room/suite was excellent with all comforts. With views over the bay the corner jacuzzi was a treat. Not too close too Full moon party but easily reachable.

Excellent, no problems!
