Posted on Aug 21, 2024|Shantaa Villa (2 Queen Size Beds)
Guest UserWe have just spent a wonderful 5 days here and it was a blissfully peaceful and tranquil stay. At first we were a little unsure about how remote and cut off it seemed but within a very short time, we had completely forgotten about the outside world. Shantaa resort had everything you could need for a truly relaxing stay. The villas are super comfortable, spotlessly clean and set in lovely gardens which roll down to the sea. The bathroom is an outdoor room which has its own pretty little tropical garden feature. Everything is tastefully furnished, the beds are very comfortable and everything is kept lovely and clean. The outside terrace has beanbag sofas which are great for lounging on. The pool area is great, nice beds and plenty of towels and bottled water available.
The restaurant serves an à la carte breakfast which was really lovely. A lot of thought and effort goes into how the food and drink is made and presented. There is an extensive dinner menu and all the meals we took were of an excellent standard and really very inexpensive. The cafe, which has a lovely setting by the sea, serves lunches and drinks throughout the day and everything we ordered was super fresh and of a very high standard. All in all, a wonderful stay, we felt we had been on a health retreat!

The environment is truly beautiful. Our room had a sea view, and there's a wooden boardwalk and a beach. The hostess is very gentle and thoughtful. It's about a 30-minute drive from the pier, with restaurants nearby, and a 15-minute walk to Ao Prao Beach. However, the hotel's downside is the significant amount of trash on the beach to the right of the wooden boardwalk. It's not visible from afar, but up close, it's quite off-putting. It's sad to see such a beautiful environment with such a neglected area. Additionally, the breakfast quality is not high, and the variety is limited. The seafood porridge mentioned in other reviews was also gone. We stayed for two nights, and on the second day, we ordered fried eggs, but they hadn't arrived even after we finished everything else. When the server cleared our table and asked if we needed anything else, we reminded them about the fried eggs. It took a long time for them to be served, despite there being only a few guests at the time. Overall, there's a lot of room for improvement with breakfast. Finally, I want to thank the owner. Our pick-up car was late, and our phone card couldn't make calls, so we asked the hostess to contact them. Later, the host also helped us, even waiting with us. The car was 23 minutes late, and I was anxious, worried about missing the boat back to Koh Chang. With the host's help and company, I was finally able to patiently wait for the car to arrive.

We stayed on February 17, 2025 in Sunset Bungalow No. 6
The friendly staff greeted us, we left our things at the reception and went for a walk along the beach, since it was still too early to check in.
The beach amazed us with its beauty, but the entrance to the water was a bit rocky.
We took a kayak and swam near the shore, snorkeled and it was time to check in.
The bungalow had a pleasant fresh clean aroma, flowers were laid out on the bed and welcome drinks were waiting for us.
The view was incredibly beautiful, I am attaching a photo. There were drinks and snacks in the room, which is very convenient, since it is quite scary to walk to the shops at night.
I especially liked the kitchen and the bar, the cocktails were quite well prepared.
For breakfast, we were given a questionnaire to fill out where we could indicate our food preferences. The breakfast was incredibly delicious, you will understand everything from the photos)
This hotel has touched our hearts, we will definitely come back again.

The resort has just re-branded. They are developing and improving their resorts , facilities, services.
There is high speed internet all area and strength signals. The most strength mobile service signals is AIS but they just equipped more for True/DTAC.
The room is clean and comfortable bed.
I recommend you bring your soap, shampoo …
(Hotel provided but not good enough for me).
There is personal beach in the front of resort. It really nice but many big stones. If you would like to swim in the sea, I suggest you swim far from the beach area.

Guest UserOverall, not bad. The bungalows are definitely very old and run-down, and don't really justify the price. We paid around 2750 Baht per night for a family bungalow. However, it has all the essentials, and a really great breakfast is offered. There are also plenty of activities for kids – a playground, swings, a trampoline, toys, and even cats and dogs. The front desk staff are generally friendly, and scooters are available for rent at 250 Baht per day.

Great place, we had a two-story house for 4 people. Everything is clean, beautiful, the staff is very friendly and polite. Breakfast is mediocre, but we did not go for food :) without breakfast it will be sad, because there are only cafes nearby (shops, of course, nicht), there are not many of them. This is a beautiful, paradise island, just right for privacy with nature. I did not like the price for the hotel per day)

Райский уголок с приватным бассейном! Отдыхали в апреле месяце, на море был сильный отлив, поэтому наличие бассейна очень скрасило отдых. Уборка номера каждый день, но бассейн в номере не чистят от листьев, приходилось вызывать. Завтраки в формате шведского стола, отличный выбор, но однотипный. Порадовало наличие на завтраке соковыжималки, каждый день у тебя свежий сок от морковки до арбуза. Все что разочаровало - это коктейли на баре: дорогие и невкусные, приготовленные неправильно. На ночном рынке коктейли намного вкуснее и дешевле)
Ну а так, идеальный отдых за свои деньги.

Stayed at this hotel for 3 nights. We chose this hotel because we liked its location - close to Bang Bao Beach, but at an affordable price. For ease of movement around the island, the hotel staff offered us a good motorbike without any deposit. The owner of the hotel, Jay, is generally a very attentive and welcoming host, ready to help with any issue. He told us about interesting places on the island that are worth visiting, where to eat, and even where is the best place on the island to watch the sunset. At our request, Jay arranged our return transfer to Bangkok via speedboat and private comfortable car. The room we lived in was large, very bright and stylishly decorated. The bed is large, with a comfortable mattress, plenty of pillows and snow-white bed linen. The air conditioner is modern, not noisy, and quickly cooled a fairly large room. From the room there is access to a small terrace with a tea table and a view of the garden, there is a clothes dryer. The room has a modern TV with smart TV function and Internet access. The bathroom is spacious, the instantaneous water heater worked well, and there are personal hygiene items. Beach towels and a mat are provided for guests to relax on the beach. Upon check-in, guests will receive a compliment from the hotel. We had a great time at the hotel and would love to come back again, Thanks Jay 🙏
