Ko Poda

Beautiful hotel a little inconvenient to get to the beach you will need to have the Bolt app downloaded but otherwise it was amazing!

The room was not ready at check-in, but everything else was great. It was a lovely room. We love the West side and are glad we booked there. The breakfast was the best we had in our 12 days in Thailand.

We stayed here for a few nights as our base to explore phi phi island and hong island etc. Our room was very clean as was the entire property which is super beautiful. Food was average at best. The breakfast was a 2/5 and did not meet standards compared to every other 5 star resort we’ve stayed at in Thailand. Service was slow. A few things to make note of. It bothered us when we requested an extra couple pods for the coffee machine and we were told we would get charged 80 baht for them even though the pods were free. We stayed in the premium ocean view rooms and I would advise against unless you are Muslim. The call to prayer which we had no idea about woke us up at 5 o’clock in the morning every morning. It was so loud that we thought the speakers were on the property below our balcony. Definitely bring earplugs if you are staying in building seven. This happens multiple times a day, but being woken up abruptly at five in the morning was not pleasant. Ear plugs should be provided. We understand this is their religion and have zero issues with this but an FYI would be nice. Don’t splurge on the nicer view rooms if this bothers you. The beach club across the street had a fun vibe. We enjoyed dinner there and it was great !
