Beachfront resort with spacious, comfortable rooms. The food at its restaurant is excellent, and there are several other good options nearby. A highlight is the area with view to the bay, where I used to eat and relax in the evenings. The swimming pool is also nice, albeit sometimes shared with diving classes.

This was one of our favourite stays while in Thailand for 3 weeks. We stayed in quaint, rustic bungalows. Very picturesque setting, located in beautiful bay. Great little restaurant & bar on site has great food and drink, very reasonable but if you want something else there are places within walking distance. We did intro dive with the resort dive operation - a superb experience - well worth considering if you are staying there. You don't have to be a diver to enjoy this resort. Staff is great. If time was our own we would have extended our stay. Highly recommend for people who don't make a habit of looking for where to assign demerit points - its not perfect but it is beautiful.

Posted 12 Sep 2023 on HotelsThe main focus here is diving. Not food, drink or the rooms. We stayed at probably the best chalet (by the beach) and it was small, basic and the a/c couldn't keep up with the modest heat. We had to pay for an upgrade as the "delux" chalet was a cupboard. Unfortunately, if you stay at a dive resort, they're nearly all like this

Hi Andrew,Thanks you for your feedback. Yes our accommodation is bungalow style based and some of our rooms are larger than others. We do offer scuba diving through our resort, however there are other activities also available on the island such as snorkelling tours, hiking and kayak adventures.We hope you enjoy your travels through Asia.

Had a lovely stay at this resort in a beachside deluxe bungalow which was beautiful, right next to the sea. Area is quiet as I wanted but plenty of restaurants and bars nearby.
My only complaint would be that you only get to choose one thing off the breakfast menu, meaning you can’t have fruit and egg or egg and toast with jam, I have been travelling for nearly a month now and this is the only time I have found this.

Nice location. Good Dive facilities and personnel. Hotel Service was not quite as friendly by Thai standards. Rooms were adequate for the price.

Very peaceful and quiet.
Couldn't swim in bay due to very very shallow water.

Hi There, Thank you for your feedback and glad you enjoyed your stay with us at Assava Dive Resort. Yes this time of the year the bay water is low but the swimming pool is great to cool off and enjoy. We hope to see you back in the future. Kind Regards, Natalie

Just a few steps away from the beach
Posted 14 Mar 2018Very attentive staff checking in and helpful at diving centre. Restaurant food was good, reasonably priced and staff were eager to serve it right.
Very nice little bay with diving resorts and snorkeling close by.
My only complaint is the bed was hard as rock, like sleeping on boards, no sheets and ran out of toilet paper pretty quickly. I didn’t bother to ask for more, just used the box of tissues. I did find prices for same room varied between booking companies so work shopping around. Overall a good stay, I would easily stay there again.
