Lagoona Sunset

2.5 star property
9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (3)
"2023/12/12〜12/15まで3泊4日で利用しました。 まず、マレ国際空港からのスピードボートはHotelに連絡すれば予約を取って頂けます。 ただ、immigrationを通過して入国し、換金やSIMカードを入手するには、1時間〜2時間かかりますので、飛行機到着時間から2時間は時間を空けてスピードボートを予約した方が良いです。 マーフシ島に到着した際はHotelのスタッフが港でリヤカーを持って待っていてくれる為、非常に助かりました。 Hotelの立地は1番賑やかな方面とは逆方向にですが、海沿いでありながら非常に静かでした。 Hotelのスタッフは非常にフレンドリーで、親切な説明もして頂き、非常に良いです。 部屋の状況も思っていたよりも広くて、清潔でした。 一つだけ問題は、シャワーの水圧が非常に弱い(今まで世界のいろいろなHotelに泊まりましたが、その中でも三本の指に入る弱さです)為、シャワーに異常に時間がかかり、あまりシャワーを浴びた気がしない感じでした。 "
