I think when he's too booked up he just doesn't answer.

Staying this weekend, on check in was told the room wouldn't be ready until 3 so sat down at the restaurant with other guests. On arrival as a gold was given a lucky dip raffle to win prizes ranging from spa treatments to a night in the royal suite and free items at the restaurants. Unfortunately got the lesser prize of ice cream
No sign of two free drinks vouchers so perhaps this has been withdrawn.
Weather has been terrible over the last couple of days, heavy rain and the sun hasn't come out once!!

Question here. My children are honeymooning here next month. They received a gift of a professional photographer shoot, flytogropher is the company. They wanted to take pictures on the beach. When they went to book there was a disclaimer from the photo company that some resorts don't allow photography on the property or charge a fee
Anyone had any experience to report. We were going to call the property but thought I'd try the experts first

I'll probably be on Koh Samui July 6-9. Unfortunately there isn't any award space then so I'd need to pay cash which is very expensive @ $708. I know this is a subjective question but would anyone that has stayed here say that this price is worth it? The IC nearby is only $350. $700 for a hotel seems ridiculous for Thailand.

I had a pretty terrible stay at the IC over Xmas and would never stay again despite being RA (which was pretty worthless there).

Whats the occasion? I will say this. The resort, which we went to for our honeymoon was amazing and worth the trip. However i used points. I wouldnt have been able to afford it paying cash. if you can, i think you will not be disappointed. However, i guess it really depends on what else you could do with that cash and if this is a once in a lifetime trip vs just another vacation.

Mods - might want to double check but i believe the elements resort and spa is closed...which is a huge bummer. Last time i stayed at CKS that was a great place to go to the spa at a much more reasonable price, and they came to pick me up.
