Azmann BBrand New Resort with Exceptional Service and the Best A La Carte Dining Experience!”
Service & Facilities:
Mint Lotus is a newly opened resort featuring modern, comprehensive facilities. The staff members are exceptional—incredibly attentive, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. As it is a smaller boutique resort, you really feel the warmth and personalized care.
Atmosphere & Vibe:
The resort is located on a very secluded beach with almost no crowds. If you are looking for ”ultimate peace and privacy,” this is the perfect destination. The atmosphere is serene and relaxing.
Note for families: Our family was actually a bit disappointed because we personally prefer a more vibrant and exciting atmosphere with more people around. However, for those who truly love silence and solitude, this place is a 10/10.
Exceptional Dining:
The food here is the absolute highlight! The Buffet A La Carte system is incredible. There is a massive variety of dishes to choose from—it’s never repetitive or boring. Every single dish we ordered was delicious. This is easily the best A La Carte breakfast/dining experience we’ve ever had at a resort.
The Beaches (Two Sides):
The resort is uniquely situated between two different beachfronts:
The Front Beach: This is a curved bay with a stone breakwater. Because the water circulation isn't very high, there is some algae and the water isn't perfectly clear. There are some small rocks, but it is still swimmable.
The Back Beach: A short walk from the resort. This side is beautiful! The water is crystal clear, there are gentle waves, and very few rocks. It’s the perfect spot to soak and relax in the ocean.
Summary: A top-tier choice for travelers seeking a brand-new resort with high-quality food and total seclusion. If you want to escape the world, come here!

The resort has just re-branded. They are developing and improving their resorts , facilities, services.
There is high speed internet all area and strength signals. The most strength mobile service signals is AIS but they just equipped more for True/DTAC.
The room is clean and comfortable bed.
I recommend you bring your soap, shampoo …
(Hotel provided but not good enough for me).
There is personal beach in the front of resort. It really nice but many big stones. If you would like to swim in the sea, I suggest you swim far from the beach area.

Guest UserEasy to get to from the port.
Upon arrival nice greeting and drink- the kids liked it. Room allocated quickly and the person who met us was great.
Beach is excellent- sunset is beautiful. Pier great to jump from.
Swimming pool warm with seats to relax in.
Room was good, air conditioning worked. Ignoring broken toilet seat and broken soap dispenser- the room was fine and close to the beach, restaurant and shop. The room has WiFi and the tv has Netflix access if you have an account and YouTube.
Motorbike hire is easy- check for bold tyres. We had a puncture almost immediately. My fault for not checking carefully enough .
Service in the restaurant was disappointing- I had to ask each day for coffee. The staff pulled faces when asked as if it was too much trouble. It was awkward asking 2 days in a row. Both staff were equally difficult.
I understand it is low season - not so many customers but they need to pay more attention to diners, play some music and have a simple welcoming look. Breakfast was not so good. If you want eggs or omelettes cooked- good luck! Everything seemed too much trouble. We had dinner there on the first night. The service was terrible but the food was nice and well presented.
Booking trips or boats out was easy and well organised. It was strange that this was so good when the service in the restaurant in the same place was so poor.
I personally would not stay here again, there are nicer hotels along the coast that have better service and facilities around the same price point, I didn’t take many photos here, it felt soulless. I was happy to leave.
The island is excellent. I’m glad we explored it but I would never stay at Sea Far again.

Pros: The location is excellent, nestled in a cool bay between two islands. The spots are Instagram-worthy, perfect for stunning photos. The water is a dream – crystal clear with a gentle slope. The sand is clean, and it's not crowded. The tents are great, with air conditioning, everything is spotless, and the mattresses are comfortable.
Cons: Breakfast is just okay – very basic, with limited and cheap options. The staff quality varies: some are very polite, diligent, and responsible, while others are very irresponsible. The evening restaurant service is an absolute mess; they constantly mix things up, forget orders, bring the wrong items, or don't bring anything at all. The restaurant is very weak; the food is passable, but the service is terrible. Specifically, the slightly chubby guy at the cash register on March 6th and 7th is really damaging the hotel's reputation. He forgets and confuses everything, then pretends it's our fault. Because of him, we started saving our receipts to prove the time and content of our orders.
Great view! Good tents! Restaurant staff are awful! (Not all of them, but a few individuals).

We stayed from April 11-13, 2069. I want to leave a review for anyone considering staying here, sharing my perspective on our experience in a family villa.
What I'd like the hotel to improve… the staff's service.
The front desk is the first point of contact for guests. We arrived as the only party, with no other guests. The staff checked us in, explained the information, and escorted us to our room, but they weren't very welcoming. Their tone of voice and demeanor made us feel unwelcome and that they were reluctant to serve.
(We tried to tell ourselves it might just be the local custom).
In the evening, we chose to eat at the hotel's beachfront restaurant. We ordered four dishes: seafood fried rice (which was good), pizza (decent, but no ketchup was provided – we had to ask for it), clear Tom Yum Goong soup (spicy enough, but the shrimp was tough and not fresh; we had to ask for a gel fuel burner to keep it warm, and there was no communal spoon. The staff stood by the service area, but when we called them, they ignored us, looking away and pretending not to hear, so we had to go and ask ourselves), and deep-fried barramundi with fish sauce (the inside of the fish wasn't cooked through. We asked for it to be re-fried, and it came back hard and burnt in some spots. We didn't complain further because we didn't want to feel worse).
During check-out, we returned the key and waited for the staff for a while. They didn't say anything or inform us that they were having housekeeping check the room and would let us know once it was ready. There was no communication. So, we told them we were going to the restaurant and would be back for our ride at this spot. When we returned, our car had arrived, but there was no communication from the staff, and no ”thank you” to the guests. (Perhaps it's because we're Thai and not foreign guests, so we received 3-star hotel service. I'm writing this because I want them to improve for future guests, as I don't think anyone wants to experience what we did. (On the way back, our car stopped to pick up guests from another hotel, and we saw staff standing there, seeing off guests and thanking them… which was completely different from Koh Kood Paradise. We paid 10,000 baht per night, and we understand the price during a festival, but the experience was not impressive at all.)… We plan to visit Koh Kood again, but we definitely won't be staying at Koh Kood Paradise.
What we did find impressive here were the rooms and facilities, the private beachfront breakfast, and the beautiful sunset in the evening.

We visit Koh Kood every year. As a family of three, we drive from Bangkok, park at the paid Ana Lay private parking lot, and then take a shuttle bus to catch either a speedboat or a ferry. Our usual pattern on Koh Kood is spending the whole day at the beach — playing in the sand, snorkeling, and taking some photos.
Ana Lay Resort is located slightly on a hillside. As you walk down, you’ll find it surrounded by large rocks, and the property is arranged in a terraced style with a wide variety of room types. They also seem to be continuously adding new rooms closer to the beach. One of the highlights is the wooden walkway built among the large rocks — it blends beautifully with nature without damaging the environment, making it perfect for photos or a relaxing stroll.
If you follow the path, you’ll reach the beach. The sandy beach is much larger than it looks in photos. At first, we were worried there might not be much sand, but we were pleasantly surprised by the size. There is also a spot where freshwater meets the sea, which is one of our favorite places. You can clearly see the changing scenery between high tide and low tide at this point.
From the pier where the resort’s speedboats dock, you can enjoy diving and snorkeling. On the beach, you can easily spend the entire day playing in the sand.
Breakfast isn’t extremely varied, but they offer freshly made noodle soup, bacon, and egg dishes, which we enjoyed. In the evening, the sunset view is stunning. The resort clearly recognizes this and has built the restaurant in a perfect location, making it easy to focus more on the scenery than the meal.
I’m not sure if it’s every day, but the staff at Ana Lay also prepare a fire show. The quality was higher than expected, and we were very satisfied. This trip made it easy to understand why this place is popular among Thai travelers.
We stayed for four days, and the staff were very friendly throughout our stay. Sometimes we rented a motorbike to go for lunch, dinner, or visit other beaches. A standard motorbike costs 300 baht per day, and a newer one costs 350 baht.

Guest UserThe service was amazing, amazing beach and good food in the bar , we have been checked in earlier without any problem, checked out later as well was possible. We did a snorkeling trip with the locals, thanks to the owner of the hotel, she was very kind and helpful in all regards! The room was a bit dirty, but probably we could ask to clean it more deep.

Guest UserCaptain Hook is the perfect place to stay if you are looking for peace and quiet. The villas are nice, we stayed in a room with its own mini pool. Staff is extremely helpful and friendly. The hotel can help you arrange boat rides, scooters to rent, ferry tickets, etc. Some amenities the resort offers are massages, fire shows, snorkeling, kayaking, and skiing. You should know that there is no beach in front of the resort, but it’s a quick swim/canoe to the beach across from the resort. The restaurant and bar sits right on the water and offers various western and eastern options. We would definitely recommend the fried chicken wings! It was a great holiday and we would choose this resort again when we travel to Koh Kood in the future.

We had an amazing 4 night stay at the Mak Trat and I can’t begin to say how wonderful, new, clean and well kept this place is. We arranged a hotel pick up from the Ao Nid port and within 5-10 of our arrival they came to pick us up, and took our luggage straight to the room.
The villas are extremely charming and the beds are very very very comfortable. The breakfast is delicious as well and the food at their own restaurant, and the amenities like the swimming pool area are very clean, beautiful and inviting. The staff is very kind and helpful informing you about day trips and also, you can rent a scooter at the hotel itself. We’re in love with this place I would 100% stay there again. Highly recommend!
