Baan Mai Beachfront Lone Island Phuket

Nature is around. Few people.

The worst thing - we got heavily stung with kids by bed bugs overnight with 70 red dots each. No apologies from staff - they even didn’t want to give another room only after argument they provided another room. Everything is below expectation. Shore is rocky. You get nice beach time 4 hours a day only - 11-15 when it is really hot only. otherwise it is unusable rocky dirty long shore. Food overpriced with items missing. No wifi apart cafe. No Electricity 5-6 hours. Staff is playing fool with uneasy cases. Staff doesn’t speak English - maybe about 200 words. Swimming pool is never clean. Also you don’t get quiet place as there are tree insects making noise in waves several times an hour. So you can’t hear each other from 20 meters. No family room as advertised. Nothing matching 4 star hotel as it promises.

Complete solitude and nothing to do, the epitome of getting away from it all, food was excellent and the staff were very friendly. The beach was swarming with crabs at sunset and there were big hornbills and other birds early in the morning, big lizards too that were really cool.

The bed linen had some stains and the rooms were very basic. No electricity during the day as the island runs on generators. Many of the dishes in the menu were unavailable and there was nothing else on the island.

Nice pool, beautiful island, clean rooms, staff was helpful. They had a ferry you could make use of should you want to go to pier. They had 3 hammocks, 1 swing on beach. Sundeck chairs. Not that we made use of this as we only stayed 1 day.

No electricity for 5 hours and longer. No convenient store. Had very little to offer on menu. Breakfast poor. Beach very Rocky. No arcade.

Power off on schedule 11-5pm every day, which was not in booking description. No toilet flushing, shower or AC during that time (Room temp+30C!) no WiFi in rooms. Power actually off earlier than told. Restaurant also closed earlier as advertised, had to argue to get food at 9pm. Beach isn’t a real beach, at low tide the water goes completely and leaves a muddy land behind. Absolutely no way to swim at low tide. On plus, food was really good.
