We are checking out of Manathai tomorrow when our six day holiday ends. Alas we paid in advance. This is definitely not a 4.5 star facility or whatever they claim to to be. It is old and dated. We booked a duplex suite. Our first suite had a filthy couch. Oily sweat stains all over it. Can't believe that these... More

We booked 4 nights in the Manathai. The place itself is really nice. A very modern Thai twist on things. The lobby, breakfast room, pool and our junior suite (recommended by Tripadvisor people,) were all really nice and if a little worn. Our room was huge!!! A separate shower and bathtub, separate closet/dressing room even. About 100-200m to the beach... More

Manathai is just opposite Surin Beach and it's definitely a must-go because the sunset there is extremely breath-taking. Several seafood eating houses along the beach and you don't have to pay for the sun beds if you show that you're staying in Manathai. A few manicure/massage parlor that cost me at affordable price. Hotel: Stayed in Studio Suite and it's... More

My wife and I stayed five nights here during Songkran. We were treated well during the whole time and the staff were friendly and accommodating. We found a good deal for the resort and booked a Lanai Suite after some recommendations from Tripadvisor to upgrate. The room was large and well decorated but, like the rest or the resort, showing...

I stayed for 4 nights here on 7-11April , the hospitality was very warm and friendly. The location is very good, 200 m from the beach and the hotel have a own space on the beach with beds and umbrella, bar, restaurant.The Hotel is in very quite a relaxing atmosphere, the service is excellent, the food on the restaurant are...

If you manage to get a good price, the hotel is "ok" but don't expect more for your money: the double rooms are dark, noisy and humid. Service is not diligent nor very helpful. A nothing special hotel but that can be an option if you're on budget.

My husband and I stayed for 7 nights from 3-12 April, 2013. We were extrememly happy that we picked this hotel especially after reading some of the not so good feedback. We stayed in one of the standard rooms and found it to have everything that we needed and we were both really happy with the cleaniness of the rooms.... More

We stayed here in October & was very nice. We had a pool suite, which was very nice to not have to leave the room to go for a swim. The room was good (although was a little tired) & had all the facilities you would expect from a hotel of this standard. The breakfast each day was good but... More

What a way to disappoint your guests! We upgraded a month before we arrived but on arrival we were told that we cued only have the upgrade for 2 nights, then would have to move to another room for 1 or 2 nights, then back to the upgraded room for the balance. After some grumbling and the offer to waive... More
