Low season is always a good time to try out a few new hotels.
We are planning to be there for our honeymoon during the 2nd week of October. Finding somewhere to stay is extremely HARD! Only because they all look so nice!! Any recommendations you could throw forward would be much appreciated. We were originally looking at Cape Panwa, however there have been many negative reviews recently on TripAdvisor.com that we decided against it and have cancelled our reservation there. We have since looked at the Sarojin (great buy 1 night get 1 night free deal right now) which I understand is further north, but we're looking for some peace and quiet anyway. There are a few which are out of our price range (twinpalms, banyan tree) but I'd certainly appreciate the advice of a resident!
