Ao Cho Grandview Hideaway Resort

We liked pretty much everything of this little resort! The staff was particularly friendly and helpful.

Maybe the breakfast could bee a little more varied .

Was close to beach and generally well kept. Good choice for breakfast and shows each evening.

First room wasn’t secure, could open the door with a credit card! They did change the room later that day. Food was expensive, but expected that, some great street food 6 mins walk away. The biggest complaint was that I was given a warm beer and asked them to change it, this took a while to sort out but finally the bar manager got me a cold beer. Then about 20 minutes later her came back with the bottle of opened beer in an ice bucket. He then told us if we didn’t pay for the bottle it would have to come out of the staffs wages, I was absolutely fuming that they threatened to take the cost of the beer out of a poor waitress if I didn’t buy it. This put a real downer on the first night and we didn’t drink or eat there again over the 5 days.

The breakfast was yummy with lots of options to choose from. The cabins are comfortable. Choosing the right resort on this island makes a big difference, and the Grandview Hidaway resort is certainly a good option.

I would’ve thought access to kayaks would’ve been complementary. The Hotel’s communication relating to when fire shows were happening was limited and at times inaccurate. Transport to the ferry was awesome, however once we landed on the island transport to our hotel could’ve been handled better by the Hotel.

Location is great and rooms are good. Staff are friendly. The ladies cooking eggs and omlettes were great. Quick to respond to requests, and even bring it to your table with a big smile if you do not pick up your order.

Breakfast is very messy - things and food run out quickly and constantly without being replaced. And the management at the time did not seem concerned at all....
