We had stayed at The Waterfront for two weeks in June, 2008. We had an amazing time. The Waterfront is situated very close to many shops and fantastic dining (within walking distance). The rooms are very clean and comfortable. The pool is small, but does the job. There is no beachfront swimming, but the view is fantastic. The service is good and breakfast is served until 11:00am. You can order a cocktail at any hour. This hotel is a great value!

We stayed for nine nights in June. Concur with all the positive reviews-you know that the beach is not good and that the pool is small. The really good things were the staff and the free WIFI. The food is very good. For me the high-lite was the restaurants and bars in the village. For the best Pizza's try Juzza 2 the seafood pizza was great. Thai food Johnny's and Tongchai. British style Indian The Billabong.

Unfortunately we only stayed at the Waterfront for 1 night on our way to Koh Phangan, but Robin and Sue were amazing hosts.

After a long flight from the UK we couldn't have asked for a better welcome. We were picked up at the airport and taken back to the resort free of charge.

The rooms were lovely, they were airy, well maintained and very clean.

The location is beautiful and we wished we had been able to stay a bit longer. Oh well, maybe next time.

We have just returned to Dubai after spending 16 happy days doing nothing more than enjoying the peaceful location of the hotel and the warmth and hospitality of all the staff.
Sue and Robin have got it right! The hotel is clean and well organised and has great staff in all departments -always willing to do that little bit extra, the beds are to dream in (best sleep for years), the garden and pool area is well maintained, the food is good and they make great 'sundowners'!
It is not a 5 star hotel and doesn't pretend to be one. The beach is not good for swimming and the pool small (read reviews and you know that before you arrive). I'm sure there are some other points, but hey!
After reading some of the negative reviews about this hotel I believe that people have just not stayed long enough to appreciate all the good things about it.- it's one of those places that just 'grows' on you! The view is great from all the bedrooms and public areas of the hotel and there are loads of good restaurants a short stroll away. Enjoy!
