Salad Buri Resort & Spa

It is 2 stars hotel, room too small and bathroom smelly(badly - you have to block tbd sink). No towels for hands or hairs.. no channels , they have few bad/ noisy signal channels that you can't even watch and not mentioning the tv is next to the bed. In addition the air condition decided to turn itself automatically during the night. Next to the bed is the mini bar which is noisy as well.

there are much better beaches and much better locations, but the comfort, luxe and service of this resort is better than anything else

Very dissapointed by our stay. booked & stayed 3 nights paying almost 5000thb per night to stay in a lagoon pool villa, some staff cannot understand a word of english. the old lady in resteraunt was always abrupt annoying and confronting almost shouting at guests where to order from. Never saw her do any work. one night we rang to enquire about room service & the kitchen did not have what we wanted which was fine so we told them thanks goodnight, however 10 minutes later a banana pancake arrives with a young boy demanding we pay for it. i told him no & next minute "Lim" arrives and starts shouting at me in my room saying i shouldnt order food then not pay for it. basically intimidating me & trying to scare me into paying for it. i was horrified!! i refused then spoke with manager next day regarding it & no offer to do anything extra for us just a brief sorry thats it. the food is really no good... omlette is super greasy, food has no flavor poor quality. we ordered many room service & tried bbq on beach, all food is below average. the lagoons are filthy & need to add lots of fish because mosquitos are shocking. reception staff are happy and helpful. the lagoon villa pool rooms are lovely however the 2nd room is needing bedheads on the single beds and the matresses are like sleeping on a rock. another problem is noise... the staff seem to allow people to yell & scream without keeping it under control. tv only has 5 channels. for the price the property needs lots of work.

This is almost a beautiful place, but no upkeeps are done. We paid a high price due to full moon party. We had trouble with wifi in our room; bed was not comfortable, the room had a smell that was cleared when we opened the door and the balcony door. The AC blows straight onto your face while in bed, and was not pleasant. But, the room was large and lovely. It is a shame that they don't put in a little effort to keep the rooms and hotel in better condition as it is a great location on the beach. Breakfast was good. Main road was under construction so troublesome to get there, but they worked on it very fast. Best to have scooters to explore the island, though you can walk the beach for various other restaurants and massages. I would look for another place next time.

Looks nice on pictures but the place is old and needs a complete renovation the mouldy smell was everywhere from the reception to the restaurant to the rooms, where we found old towels, stained bath robes, dirty slippers, and they made us count the old dirty cups and towels in the room... !? The staff was nice but they are obviously managed by very stingy owners. On the bright side the salad beach location is beautiful, the ferry pick up was well organised, and the restaurant Thai food was great. But not worth the US$110 ticket they charge. We couldn't stay even for one night, we packed up and left even though the room was prepaid, and we found lovely beach bungalows in nearby charming Chaloklum bay ranging $25 to $50.
