Chivatara Resort & Spa Bang Tao Beach

The hotel has good facilities and a nice pool. The cleaners didn’t seem to do much other than make the bed. The toilet was starting to smell a bit after our four days. The beds were hard and not very comfortable. The hotel is situated in a street with many ladies of the night which may put some people off. Nightlife in terms of bars and atmosphere is surprisingly poor. I think the many Russians in the area stay in their hotels. The beach was lovely. Best part of it.

The staff was very inviting and very friendly. It was on a very beautiful property

Good location

The rooms are comfortable but the air conditioning is put in a dangerous spot over a doorway and as it leaked water overnight, I had a terrible fall when walking to the toilet in the dark unaware of the leak. A matt needs to be secured on the floor. Apart from that the pool is nice and there were nice restaurants nearby.

The location of the hotel is rather secluded and it was noisy in the evenings due to loud music coming from nearby bars. Once the room door was closed the noise level was a lot less audible though. The sheets weren't as cleaned as we'd expect them to be and the air condition wasn't working in the first room we were booked into - the hotel staff moved us to another available room and the aircon worked. It's a nice place but the cleanliness can certainly be improved.
