We had a lovely, relaxing break, thank you 500 Rai.
Arrival - warm welcome after a beautiful 1hr 15mins long tail boat ride to the resort. You can only take light luggage, but bigger luggage can be stored at the pier. 500 Rai have their own office at the pier.
Staff - Everyone was so helpful and friendly. It was smiles all around and they cannot do enough for you. Thank you!
Rooms - We had a villa and the views were incredible. We were so happy, and very lucky with the weather during our stay. You get 1 hour WiFi per person, per stay. Electricity and air conditioning is 24hours. Each room has its own kayak tied up outside ready for you to use whenever you like. Sitting on the veranda with a cocktail, watching the stars is a great end to an evening.
Service hours - Due to the chilled nature of the experience, last orders for food is 7.30pm, and the bar shuts at 8.30pm.
Food - Was a bit hit and miss for me personally. Breakfast was amazing. I found the cuts in the chicken dishes too fatty, but the veg dishes were better in the main menu. The prices are more expensive (not unreasonable) than other resorts in Thailand, but this is to be expected as you are a captured audience and they have ship in the supplies.
Family vs Couples - If you are looking for a quiet place for couples this may not necessarily be for you. It is not adult only, so you have to expect families, and most were families during our stay. The issue is that there is only 1 space as the restaurant/bar,
