Samroiyod Holiday Resort

The location is excellent, directly opposite the beach, food is excellent also, reasonable price, well cooked and presented. Rooms are outdated and tired. Nice village and easy to get to, easy parking and grounds to sit in. Got charged for ice! - service charge is added to bills (10%). Wifi weak - really needed to go to the restaurant for 50MB connection, mainly used 4G in the room. For a relax, sea air, sea views, nice food - it works, upgrading the rooms would make a huge difference for an excellent location local hotel

Area The resort is far from Hua Hin around 45 km.(1 hr by car). It's very near to the beach but the street from the main road is quite desolate. The staffs are very friendly. Place The resort area is not so large. The rooms look old but clean. The bathroom was renovated, and it is very clean with a set of bath kit. Food & beverage Krua Chom Talay is the resort's restaurant. I recommended "Kaengsom Mamuang Kung Sod" (Thai sour and spicy soup with mango and shrimps). The breakfast is an international buffet. If there are only fews clients, they will give you a list of breakfast to choose only 1 main-cause. There is no pool. Pets friendly (extra charge)

My wife and I stayed at this resort for few nights in September 2016 and we absolutely loved it! We chose this place, because we wanted to stay close to Huahin and its attractions, but away from its crowds, traffic and noise. A few attractions, like the Khao Sam Roi Yot National park, the famous Phraya Nakhon cave and the swamps are just within a 20 min drive from the resort. This is an excellent place if you want to relax in a quiet and very peaceful atmosphere. They’ve got a few bungalows situated in a small, but very well maintained garden. The rooms are not large and a bit dated in some places, but all the essentials, including the A/C, are there and they are very clean. I can’t think of anything else I’d need for a good sleep after a long day out)). The beach is across the road within 30-40 m from the resort. Since it was a low season, we couldn’t see any people there, so we could enjoy an occasional swim early in the morning in total privacy and, if we not very tired, a walk along the beach in the evening. Their restaurant seems to be quite popular with the local people and at times it looked rather busy in the evenings and I can understand why. The food is excellent and they even have a few awards for some of their dishes (unfortunately, I can’t remember which ones), but everything we ordered there was above our expectations. I have to mention one item though – Tom Kha Gai. This is perhaps the best version we ever had in Thailand. My wife couldn’t resist temptation of asking them about the recipe and they were so kind as to show her how they cooked it. The review wouldn’t be complete if I didn’t mention the staff and the management. I think this is what ultimately made our stay there so pleasant and homely. Everyone was very friendly and eager to help and cater to any of our requests. It’s hard to describe in a few words… A smile from a garden keeper when you walk to breakfast, a warm welcome from the restaurant staff early in the morning, it all sets your mood for the rest of the day. The hotel manager, Khun Sampong, a true gentleman, personally made sure that we enjoyed our stay, helping with advice and support or even organizing our various activities whether it was a fishing trip or a request for a recipe))) It’d be our pleasure to stay there again.
