I had a great time at this resort, mainly because of its perfect location right on Ao Cho Beach. While the beach is stunning, the breakfast left a lot to be desired, and the dining setup is not ideal. The service was generally good, though I had an unfortunate encounter with a less-than-happy waiter. Overall, it’s a peaceful place for relaxing, but there are a few areas that could use improvement.

Breakfast was okay but not impressive, with limited options. There was an egg chef, but communication was a bit of a challenge. Dinner at the restaurant was tasty, but on the pricier side.

We had a lovely stay at Ao Cho Grandview Hideaway Resort, enjoying the beautiful beach and calming atmosphere. The rooms were comfortable, and the view from our villa was stunning. While the dining experience could use some improvement, especially at breakfast, the amenities like the well-maintained gardens added to our overall enjoyment. However, language barriers with staff and occasional noise from nearby areas were a bit of a drawback.

The resort is perfectly situated right on a charming beach, making it ideal for those looking to relax by the ocean. While the rooms are spacious and well-kept, the overall experience is marred by a frustrating lack of Wi-Fi access and indifferent service from some staff members. The breakfast leaves much to be desired in terms of quality, but the beachfront location is truly a highlight.

I had a rather disappointing experience at this resort. While the beach location and the snorkeling activities were highlights, the overall quality of the rooms and service left much to be desired. The lack of maintenance and attention to detail was evident, making my stay less enjoyable than I had hoped.
