This review is for the amazing staff at the Marriott. While the property itself is beautiful and serene, the team's exceptional care and personal touches made our anniversary celebration unforgettable. They showed incredible empathy and support when we had to leave early due to a family emergency. A special thanks to Hitesh Khantnani and the Marriot team for the kindness. We had such a wonderful and memorable experience that we're already returning for another vacation soon.

Big, beautiful property. Chose it for its proximity to the airport for only 1 night and wish we had spent at least a week there! Drinks and food were delicious at the M beach grill. We got the bbq platter for 2 and it could easily feed 4. Very good value for the money. Drinks weren’t watered down as we had experienced in other hotels we stayed at during our trip. The staff was friendly and helpful. We’ll definitely be back!

Exceptional and very high standards

Exceptional! The standard at the hotel is excellent, staff so attentive. Pricing good too at bars and reasonable at restaurants. The housekeeping was faultless! Beautiful gardens and watch out for the elephant on beach / resort everyday around 5:30. The kids slide in the main pool is brilliant.

We loved the location at the top end of the island - on a great beach well away from the craziness of the lower two thirds of the island. The food was overall very good - especially the a la carte options. Italian was great and of course the Thai was also good. Marriott always excels in the dining area. Pool was excellent, steps from the beach. Visiting pet elephant was good value. Pool table was great - but it meant having to listen to the not so great live band. Instead of hits from the seventies, a high quality Thai musician playing Thai instruments or a guitarist playing acoustically would have been so much nicer and classier. Our only real complaint about this hotel as a family would be that the bathroom design is insane and not private at all. The shutters opening on the room did not fully close and the lack of glass in this area and shutters on the door meant that everything in the bathroom was partially visible and fully audible. We couldn’t for the life of us figure out who this open design benefits - perhaps a solo traveller wishing to open the shutters during a bath? Weird - if you and your family like your privacy you might want to book somewhere else.
