The Survival by Seudam

The rooms are beautiful and clean with excellent air conditioning. The camping-style decor is lovely, and the beach is stunning – perfect for watching the sunset. However, maintaining cleanliness in the bathrooms, especially shared ones, is challenging. Some rooms are quite a distance from the facilities. If you plan to rent a motorbike from the property, be mindful of safety when returning, especially at night, as the path to the beach is away from populated areas and can be quite dark. On the positive side, the hotel has a delicious and value-for-money restaurant. They also offer kayaking and surfboarding, but only the first hour is free; subsequent use requires a rental fee. The open-air cinema isn't complimentary for guests; you have to pay extra, which includes popcorn, and you can choose the movie from your smartphone. Nevertheless, the staff are wonderful, always smiling and eager to help. The female staff member at the counter patiently assisted me in finding a coupon, though I regret not remembering her name. Overall, I was very impressed, and these limitations seem to be an unavoidable part of being close to nature.

The accommodation is beautiful, the service is excellent, and the food is delicious. The communal bathrooms are very clean and have hot water. The sea is stunning with crystal clear water. There are motorcycles available for rent, and the facilities are very comprehensive.

The grounds are beautiful, the beach is stunning, and the staff are friendly. We stayed in a tent, which was a unique and enjoyable experience. For a short stay of 1-2 days, this kind of communion with nature is fantastic (very atmospheric), but for a longer period, it might lack a bit of comfort. Important tip: there are midges on the beach (they bite, and quite noticeably). You can ask for special spray at the reception.

Pros: The location is excellent, nestled in a cool bay between two islands. The spots are Instagram-worthy, perfect for stunning photos. The water is a dream – crystal clear with a gentle slope. The sand is clean, and it's not crowded. The tents are great, with air conditioning, everything is spotless, and the mattresses are comfortable. Cons: Breakfast is just okay – very basic, with limited and cheap options. The staff quality varies: some are very polite, diligent, and responsible, while others are very irresponsible. The evening restaurant service is an absolute mess; they constantly mix things up, forget orders, bring the wrong items, or don't bring anything at all. The restaurant is very weak; the food is passable, but the service is terrible. Specifically, the slightly chubby guy at the cash register on March 6th and 7th is really damaging the hotel's reputation. He forgets and confuses everything, then pretends it's our fault. Because of him, we started saving our receipts to prove the time and content of our orders. Great view! Good tents! Restaurant staff are awful! (Not all of them, but a few individuals).

The shared bathrooms are a bit inconvenient, though cleaner than your average public restroom. The service attitude is good, but the food is very mediocre. The facilities are relatively new, and there aren't many mosquitoes, making it suitable for camping enthusiasts.

Excellent hotel! Quiet, peaceful, and absolutely no hustle and bustle. It's the perfect place to recharge and reflect on the meaning of life.

Overall, it's a great spot, but only for a couple of nights: the beach and sea are stunning, the tents are stylish and interesting, and the breakfasts are decent. We had lunch and dinner there too, but it was pretty mediocre, both the Thai food and the pizza. By the third day, it loses its charm, and you get tired of the shared toilets and showers. We were happy to move to a more standard accommodation for our remaining two nights (which we had planned in advance).

Beautiful accommodation, and the beach is stunning. The staff are friendly and very attentive. The food is delicious. My only small issue is that the restroom is quite a walk away, and there were quite a few mosquitoes. If you like eco-friendly systems, I highly recommend this place.

The only downside was the restroom being a bit far; it would be much better if there was a private bathroom.
