Ammatara Pura Pool Villa

This is a very beautiful property, designed like a Thai temple or palace. It is exceptional, quiet and relaxing. Decor is a bit tired in places but nothing a good maintenance team couldn’t quickly sort out. Some basic upgrading and painting is required. The breakfast room has wonderful staff but is a dark traditional room on a bright sunny morning with tired old piano music playing on a loop. It’s bleak. Put a breakfast kitchen (egg station) in the beach front restaurant and serve from there - provide a better experience for guests. There’s new management but they need to be innovative and shake things up a bit. The pool villa is fantastic.

The beach bar/restaurant is under used, there is no life to the place. Such a shame as it has a wonderful location on the beach and is built in a lovely traditional style. There’s nothing like it along the whole beach and it should be attracting a lot of attention. Instead, it looks closed, especially in the evenings. Play some good music (not the rap music we experienced), bring some atmosphere into the place and have an easy going menu. Bring it to life! The bar staff although very pleasant just lack the personality to sustain a busy bar/restaurant. It will need direction to succeed.

Everything was perfect. The facilities, the peaceful surroundings, the staff, every single one of them were amazing, the breakfast, the room was amazing with its infinity private pool.

Great spacious room, nice calm location, exceptional staff, very friendly and attentive.

The hotel is worn-out and needs reconstruction badly. The beach front restaurant is not used at all to its full potential, such a shame.

I think it's the best hotel in Lamai! Spacious private villa with own pool, nice breakfast and friendly, helpful and kind staff, including Anastasia! I was skeptical a bit about the outside shower, but then I grew to like it, it feels like a unity with the nature )

Not sure what one can improve here, maybe prices :)
