The customer service was top notch. I had a couple of issues that were quickly resolved. The staff tended to us speedily, made sure we were comfortable and were very courteous. The standout staff member was May. She was amazing and my daughter loved her. We would stay at this resort again. The location was great, the food was DELICIOUS and the environment was peaceful.

Stayed here for 4 nights with two teens two adults. Rooms are spacious. Staff are friendly and super helpful. Breakfast is good. Pool is big and beach is walkable or can hop on the hotel van service that runs every 30 mins. Laundry service, convenient store, night market, restaurants is down the hill. We would stay here again. The steep hills would be hard for those with walking problem.

The beds are very comfortable. Both swimming pools are great fun for the kids. One hour free kids indoor playground a day was a great thing to have. Breakfast was very good. Options changed slightly each day. Staff were helpful. Tour desk was a lot more expensive than shops outside. Id recommend going down the bottom of the hill. There is a small tour shop just at the bottom there which sorted us out really good prices and was very helpful. Only con is the hill to get back to the hotel but there is a shuttle bus every 30 mins if you time it right. Beach and restuarants and bars are all easily walkable from hotel. We fully enjoyed our stay

The Novotel is a fantastic property. Wonderful staff, awesome pools…my kids loved the vr room, pool and fuse ball tables and trying the in pool submersible. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. It’s very close to the night markets for dinner and the beach. There’s a shuttle bus every 30 minutes but the hill although steep is manageable. Kids loved feeding the koi fish and everything was just easy. We got the extra day bed and the room easily accommodated 3 of us comfortably. We stayed here after our resort stay to use as a home base while we were out adventuring all day. Incredible value, great location and amazing staff.
