Koh Kood Beach Resort

Beautiful, spacious grounds and excellent staff. The huts are large and pool and beach are perfect.

Rental motorbikes were not well maintained. Poor brakes.

Amazing location with basically private access to one of the nicest beaches on the island. Peaceful and beautiful sunsets. Lovely staff. Saw most of the island and it’s definitely one of the best places especially for the price.

There are some minor things that need updating, like showers and pool tiles that are becoming a bit dangerous, and all of the linen and towels etc could do with a bit of a refresh. But for the price this was not a problem.

Lovely place. Private beach and pool. Very comfortable rooms. Atmospheric fishing village next door where you can get delicious barbecued fish and cocktails.

House cocktails weren’t great and lunch gave my partner a bit of tummy trouble.

The grounds are beautifully kept. Location is stunningly beautiful. The happy hour cocktails are great. The food in the restaurant is hit or miss.

Apart from the location, however, this resort has taken a drastic turn for the worse. Our room (Bali Hut Seaview) was dark and dated. Not much table/counter space to set things, nor adequate wardrobe/drawers, etc. so we could never really get out of our suitcase. The outdoor bathroom area was a horror. It was infested with several types of ants. The large ones hung around the toilet, under the seat, etc. so when you'd sit down after dark, they'd quickly come bite. But the much worse ones were the small ones that obviously had a nest near the shower. Withing seconds of starting the sour, the would attack our entire bodies. The water from the shower didn't stop them; in fact, it seemed to make it worse. Our entire bodies had bites, some in very sensitive areas. Also, at night, the kids were scared to go out to use the toilet because of the night bees (wasps?) buzzing all over the lights and trying to get into the room. There were also snakes hanging around the restaurant area, but they didn't really bother us. I know it's an island so some interaction with nature is bound to happen, but I've stayed on a lot of resorts on a lot of islands, and this was an extreme experience. Those bungalows are in serious need of renovation and those outdoor bathrooms should be axed. The other big change since our previous visits to this resort (pre-Covid) was the quality of the breakfast buffet. I remember it being a highlight in the past, but now it's rather pathetic. There was never any bacon. The only breakfast staples offered were pre-cooked fried eggs, hot dogs and some sad looking ham slices. The Thai food offered was also disappointing. Most of the other guests appeared to be Scandanavians and they seemed content just eating toast, but for those of us who travel in Thailand regularly, this breakfast was way below normal standards.
