"The hotel is very nice but like ALL hotels in that area, they are in the middle of no-where and you definitely need your own transportaiton if you don't want to be stuck in the hotel. They provide transportaiton but at extremly high costs. E.g. 400 THB/pax minimum 2 pax to drive you to Ban Peh (20 kms from the hotel) and 100 THB per waiting hour. Otherwise they have a free shuttle leaving the hotel at 9 AM to Ban Peh and taking you back at 5 PM. So we rented a motorbike from an outside company at a price slightly higher than everage in Thailand 300 THB/day instead of the usual 200 THB maybe because there only are 2 MC rental companies around. The staff was extremely helpful and caring. Once we ventured out of the hotel for a walk and while already far, the hotel staff reached us by car to give us umbrellas since it was the rainy season."
