I'd go back again
Posted 8 Mar 2020 on HotelsWe had never been glamping before and decided to give it a try. My girlfriend and I are both campers so figured we couldn't go wrong.
First off, the staff here is AMAZING. They surprised my girlfriend by bringing her a complimentary (and delicious) birthday cake. It was well above and beyond. The manager, not as friendly but he didn't bother us, just wasn't particularly outgoing either.
The tents were in decent shape but the canvas needed a good scrubbing in some places as it was a bit moldy/mildewy. I would have expected more for the price we paid. The only other cleanliness issue was in the pool. There is a ring of green algae around it. Not so bad enough to keep me out but again, I would expect better. As far as housekeeping cleanliness issues, there were none.
The restaurant here is absolutely delicious. We ate 4 meals here in our 1 week stay which is a lot for us. We usually like to take in surrounding restaurants and local spots. The food was just too good to pass up. The chicken and beef skewers were spot on. The gin fizzes and wine list were also very impressive. Happy hour from 2-5 buy 2 get one free.
Our stay in the tent was nice. The beds are large and pretty comfy. My only complaint would be that the mosquito nets don't reach the floor and our net wasn't in the best of condition. This is an easy fix though and would make a big difference. I am sure management will take care of it as the grounds are generally very well looked after.

We really liked The private pool. The high privacy of the villa. In the other hand, there is no water in the villa for most of the day so we could barely take a shower.

Glamping but not luxury - not in quiet season
Posted 31 Oct 2019 on Hotelsstayed for 5 nights after travelling for 2 weeks staying in hostels/small hotels. On our honeymoon and had splashed out on Khwan to get that little bit of quirky luxury it offered. We both enjoy camping and enjoyed meeting the frogs and ghekkos in our room. It is a very pretty tent! But not luxury. We met two members of staff during our stay. They were friendly/helpful receptionists. You could count the bar man but he appeared to be asleep everytime we walked past. The pool had no cushions laid down, they were all piled up and covered over. It looked disused and had repair works for 2 days. Felt rude to interrupt the asleep bar man to ask him if I could get a cushion. I know it rains but it was really unwelcoming. Also silly things like stuff in the draws with no explanation.Didn’t know if they were left behind or left for our use, a sticky fridge, no conditioner (daft I know but we’d paid nearly £100 a night and had paid much less elsewhere and got conditioner) the little bits of luxury were missing. The swing attached to our tent was covered over, in a bush that was dark and hidden away, only 1 cushion for our outdoor seats. The place had packed up for quiet season but had charged us full price,restaurant/drinks/taxis were also pricey. We ate at ‘mr kais’ instead - aroi mak mak!! And didn't have brekkie for 650bt each!! implied we were disappointed and was told I could pay 4000 to upgrade for 3nights so not all get the infamous free upgrade. Disappointed! Shower is fab!!

Memorable glamping experience
Posted 9 Apr 2019 on HotelsWe really enjoyed our first glamping experience and was very impressed with the room and surroundings especially as it included a swing. The furnishings in the room were impressive, the arm chairs, the carved wooden trunk, the baskets, the sling bag with towels for the beach, and the enjoyable outdoor bathroom. Attention to details was apparent in every corner. The only setback was that the fridge was way too small and stocked to the brim with canned and bottled drinks which we would have to pay for. It was awkward also to use the boiler which was in a wooden cabinet on the upper level, the mini fridge being at the lower level. The coffee capsule was also not very good and Lipton tea was provided; a better brand could have been offered. There was also no milk (only powdered creamer) for beverages. I think the space behind the bed to the side could fit a larger fridge so that we could put the bottled water (and fruits/juices) inside since the weather was extremely hot and having a cold drink would have been really good. We really appreciated the flexibility to choose what we liked for breakfast (from the menu up to THB 450 value) if we did not want the fixed sets. This worked very well with us. We would definitely like to stay here again if the opportunity presented itself. We were however somewhat disappointed when one of the wine glasses tipped over because of the mosquito netting and we were charged THB 300 when the cost of a decent wine glass is only about THB 89.

We stayed here for 8nts, in a villa with a private pool, during January. Returning for a 2 night "glamping" stay during February.
The Khwan Beach resort is a peaceful, stylish, well located, adult only resort. With great beaches, shopping and inexpensive restaurants, all within easy walking distance.
The staff and management team demonstrated exceptional professionalism throughout both visits. Going out of their way to ensure we had a comfortable, relaxing stay.
We would happily recommend this resort to others, and hope to return again ourselves, in the future. Thanks to everyone for making ours a memorable, 5 star stay.
