What an experience! I was recently there with 7 friends for a 50th birthday. Stayed at the resort overnight and we wanted a special evening to mark the occasion. Firstly the restaurant has the wow factor when you first enter it because of the environment it sits in and the use of space to pick up the natural surrounds of...

We chose the 5 course Thai Banquet as part of the stay at Spicers Tamarind (highly recommended). The service at the restaurant was very friendly but professional at the same time. Our waitress knew exactly when to approach our table to top up our drinks or to clear the plates. Each course was excellent but the ones that stood out...

We dined at the Tamarind whilst staying at the retreat. My thoughts:
Service. Great. Attentive, friendly and unobtrusive. We chose the 3 course menu and when my son couldn’t find an entree that he liked, an intelligent substitute was readily offered and accepted. The resulting coconut and mushroom broth was a sensation and my son absolutely loved it.
Ambience. Glorious....

We are regular diners at Tamarind, as it is consistently fabulous fine modern Asian cuisine. The menu always features a refined combination of seasonal produce, creatively styled and exquisitely delicious. Despite this - make sure you always include the whole fish because it is the stellar dish on the menu, and will cause you to be licking your fingers at...
