Great resort and dive team. Loved it. Check in was smooth although not time with ferries. So needed to wait but had good food and drink selection. Dive team was great. The team took care of my son certification with great care and dedication. My refresher course was also great. Overall highly recommended Snorkelling trip was also well organized and great views The ferry schedules are so varying and can be coordinated better for better experience.

Fresh off the boat, you don't get a good impression right away. There isn't anyone to greet you or take your bags, no signboards and you have to ask multiple people hanging around the jetty for directions to the resort. There was a guy with a cart to take our bags, except he didn't even have signs showing that he was from paya beach resort. We had to take an early boat due to ferry schedule so we reached at 10.30am and my ferry back was supposed to be 8am the day after next. The booking itself with ferry and package was made with the resort hence they should have been expecting me and have my room ready but that didn't happen. Staff were not welcoming or friendly at all - barely any hospitality when you enter. You guys run a resort but your staff look like they are welcoming the death of them. No smiles, no welcome , nothing! Excuse me, this is in early April, it's not even peak season. This is the first time I've ever experienced a full board package but it's 2 breakfast , 2 dinner and 1 LUNCH, so first meal starts at dinner. NOT LUNCH. What a rip off. What is full board if you cut me short of one meal? Breakfast buffet is the usual mix of continental and asian, it'sthe same everyday. I read another review somewhere here about the oily pancakes-- this is CORRECT! Lunch buffet is quite limited but dinner is a good spread with variety. We stayed in a superior pool view room. Rooms are clean. Water pressure is very low. They had a rain shower but it felt like a fast drizzle, maybe 5 outlets/openings fromthe shower actuallyhad water coming out of it.. Even the bidet - don't know what washing to do there. Our air-conditioner was leaking too. There are no towels for the beach or pool, but they said you can use the room towels and have them changed for clean ones. Spa quality is good but nowhere near what you find in Indonesia or Thailand. Amenities in the room are adequate but the TV doesn't work. Not a problem as I didn't come here to watch TV. The snorkeling trip is short, but worth it. The guide and the briefing done before was excellent, clear and they were very friendly. The restaurant and bar staff were lovely, so happy and friendly- excellent hospitality here. The shores can be quite rocky, might want to use your beach shoes here. No day beds by the beach, use your towel/ mat. You can rent beach mats hourly at the activities counter. I would say that you'd have to keep your expectations low when you choose to come here. This place is old, requires lots of TLC and sadly, it seems that they haven't done enough to maintain it well. …

The amenities were old and dirty. Aircon was not cold on first day when we checked in, and took 1.5hours to fix it. Water supply was cut off on 2nd day. Bathtub leaking. Overall, definitely will not recommend.

The spa is run by the most helpful ladies. Even in the pouring rain, the spa was so relaxing and an excellent massage -both the divers massage and the classic! Would recommend the spa to others. Thank you!
