Baan I Taley On Sea

Nice place, spectacular view

It is near a market and lots of shops and restaurants. The view was amazing. Loud music was playing near the market all night and again early in the morning. You can hear the bass from the music in the hotel room, so it was not quiet and peaceful. There is big open space above the bathroom door and no vent, so if you take a dump the whole room smells. Not a good set up if you are staying with someone. There is a TV, air con, and a refrigerator but no microwave. Rooms are basic but decent.

Beautiful view but make sure you get a water view room. The other rooms are not as nice

We stayed one night here. It was conveniently in walking distance to the dock where we arrived on ferry from Pattaya. It was also right next to the night market where we were able to grab a few eats and bring back to the room where we enjoyed our food on the amazing patio over the water. The sunset and sunrise view is incredible. Check in/out was easy. This place was affordable for having the view we got. That patio over the water makes it worth it. Our AC also was a plus along with the refrigerator in the room was convenient to put any food away in. You cannot leave any food out or you'll be sharing your room with sugar ants. There are a lot of little shops and cafes just outside of the hotel. The downside is that it's a very humble area that isn't the most beautiful walking up to your room. Low tide shows the debris in the water which isn't at all glamorous but I wasn't going in with high resort expectations. The bed is hard as plywood but we were so exhausted, it didn't matter. The shower is a wet room so you have your toilet and shower together. This side of the island, Na Baan, doesnt have any areas you can really enjoy the beach so you have to grab transportation, Song Tau, to get to a side of island with a beach catering to beach activities which you grab next door to the hotel. I would stay here again but plan to get there early enough/stay an extra day to hop on a ride to other parts of the island to enjoy. No frills. Beautiful view on private patio over the water.
