Sungthong Kamala Beach Resort, Kamala, Thailand

The area around the hotel is not so good, unkempt and smelly in places. It is in a good location being only 5 minutes from beach, shops and restaurants. The "restaurant "on site is only open 8 to 8 and has a limited menu and there is no bar. There is a 7/11 shop across the road for anything required. Rooms were large and bed was huge and comfortable and there was air conditioning. Great shower, big and roomy. The hotel was clean and all the staff were very helpful. Our main gripe is that for a hotel of approximately 40 rooms, there were only 6 sunbeds. As we are not beachy people, we had to get up early to put a towel on the bed to reserve it. Our room was described as garden/mountain view. Yes we could see the mountains to the side of the balcony if we leaned over it but directly in front was just greenery and on a main road. No sign of a garden. NO double glazing of course so was very noisy, not at all pleasant to sit out on.

The hotel was just ok. Not very clean. Bathroom had mold.

Exactly what you would expect in this standard of hotel. Location is good for access to town and beach. Management very helpful and smiling. Pool is good with plenty of sunbeds. Will definitely stay again.
