We had such a great experience at Varandas Beach Hotel that we initially booked 3 nights and ended up extending our stay for another 3 — we simply didn’t want to leave! The atmosphere here is amazing, especially on weekdays when there are fewer guests. It almost feels like a cozy boutique hotel — quiet, intimate, and incredibly relaxing. The staff are warm, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile. The breakfast was delicious every day, and the overall quality of the food in the restaurant was excellent. There’s a great variety of dishes, everything we tried was fresh and tasty, and the prices are very reasonable for lunch or dinner. One unique and pleasant surprise was the swimming pool filled with seawater — something we don’t often see, and it added a special touch to the experience. We also appreciated the themed evenings — for example, one night they set up a projector and played movies for kids. It made the place feel even more family-friendly and thoughtful. There are plenty of activities and entertainment options for both kids and adults. But the true highlight is the beach! It’s wide, clean, with soft sand and incredibly clear water. You can even rent little quads to ride along the beach. During low tide, natural pools form with warm, calm water – perfect for little children to splash around safely. Honestly, this has been the best beach we’ve seen in the last two weeks of traveling. It’s a perfect spot for families or anyone looking to unwind in a beautiful, peaceful setting. We would definitely love to return one day!

The beach is very nice and the hotel environment is beautiful. Many activities can be organized through the hotel. Nice staff. The food in the restaurant is varied and good (some dishes are delicious and others a bit less so). The rooms are big and the balconies as well. Good massage.

Always some background music, which can be annoying if you just want peace and quiet. Some problems with the shower that was leaking. Breakfast is ok but could be better. If you organize a shuttle service, make sure to ask for a big enough car, especially if you have several suitcases.

My wife and I visited in Feb 2025 and absolutely loved the hotel. The pool area and beach was spectacular. But the best part was the staff, specifically the staff in the restaurant. They were the nicest people you will ever meet and always smiling and attentive. My wife and I plan to go back at some point and the staff will be a big reason why!

The hotel is very cozy and tastefully decorated with regional handicrafts and nice outdoor sofas, very reminiscent of southern Thailand.

The only bad thing was the painted over window in our room that blocked the spectacular sea view (which we could only see if we opened the balcony door), and the lack of mosquito screening on the balcony door.

I liked Everything. People so friendly and, the room was so comfortable

I can't complain about the hotel. Was so nice to be there

Nice dining/breakfast area with ocean view Excellent Places to sit at the beach Very friendly staff Live music event

Blacked windows in the rooms Mushy shower Stinky water from the shower hose A smelly piece of furniture Lots of noisy works during my stay No water during 1 day

Emphasis on detail is everywhere. Looked great and was better. We trained friendly staff... engaged and genuinely interested.

Pool and Beach front .

We stayed 5 days during the week , the restaurant options are not good . Even the fish. We had to leave the hotel for a good dinner in small town . The hotel was almost empty during our stay and we could have been offered an upgrade . Maintenance of other rooms was uncomfortable as very strong smell of varnish in our room . Breakfast could improve too

Location, silence, service

Nothing

Good location, dedicated staff and organization

The food could be better, some portions were not that tasty.
