What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Thai Cuisine

The restaurant at Mayalay Resort offered an amazing array of local dishes, from cashew chicken stir fry to a delectable mussaman curry. Every meal was a delight, especially the cocktails. The piña coladas were particularly refreshing after a day in the sun.

Charming Beachfront Huts

Our beachfront hut was a dream! Built from bamboo with stunning views, it was spacious and cozy, featuring a comfortable double bed along with a day bed. We loved relaxing on the terrace while taking in the ocean breeze.

Unique Outdoor Shower Experience

The semi-outdoor bathroom was such a unique feature! It offered a refreshing shower experience surrounded by nature, which added to the overall charm of our stay. The large space and amenities were perfect for our family.

Very nice Snorkeling Adventure

Snorkeling right off the beach was a highlight of our trip. The vibrant reef just a short swim away was alive with colorful fish, which made for a nice underwater experience. It truly felt like a little piece of paradise!

I had a wonderful time at this hotel, enjoying its perfect beachfront location and the amazing staff who treated us like family. While the rooms were comfortable and came with great amenities, they did feel a bit dated and could use some sprucing up. The beach was beautiful, but the dining experience could be improved as some meals didn't quite meet expectations.

The Mayalay Beach Resort offers a unique blend of tranquility and nature, but it does come with its share of quirks and issues. While the location is idyllic with beautiful scenery and friendly staff, the condition of the bungalows is disappointing for the price paid. I was looking forward to a relaxing stay, but the spa was closed and the facilities need serious updates. Overall, it's a mixed experience for what could be a really wonderful retreat.

The resort is in an amazing spot on the beach, perfect for those looking for a laid-back escape. The bungalows are basic but clean, and the atmosphere feels very friendly. Unfortunately, some facilities seem to be neglected, leaving a bit of a run-down impression. The dining experience could use improvement, as the breakfast options are quite limited given the price point.
