I'm here now for a 2 night stay, checked in at 9am this morning after a red eye from CDG. Had taxi issues since I wasn't properly prepared, ended up overpaying. Definitely have the address written in Thai or their phone number at the ready. Driver was fine after speaking with them.

I've seen a total of 3-4 other groups of guests all day. Only saw one person in the pool. Have really enjoyed the Latest Recipe restaurant, the mackerel appetizer is amazing. They were also very kind to serve us pad thai at 9:30am. They seemed disappointed that we didn't want the breakfast buffet, but we had already had "breakfast" on the plane at 6am. The service is a bit overwhelming sometimes; the ratio of staff to guests is rather high as one might imagine in a new hotel.

While the spa isn't open, you can access massage for 300 baht/hour at the golf club house until 6pm. Not the best, but it's there.

Oh, and I'm in a room on the second floor. Looks exactly like the pictures above with two doubles. Although it seems our deck is missing the table.
