the hotel was very expensive, (we stayed there for the full moon and new years eve, countdown party 2012/2013). the rooms were close to the beach but small and in a bad condition. the toilet was broken and the shower with less-dropwise water was disgusting. however, the countdown party (full moon party) at haad rin beach was quite good and is not far away from the hotel, a taxi to the popular haad rin beach will cost 100 baht each person (fixed price). so stay there for one or max two nights in case of all other hotels are overbooked... but not longer...!
