Leider ist alles etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Die Anlage ansich ist gelungen.
Es fiel in unserem Zimmer für 2 Tage die Klimaanlage aus.
Elisabeth, die schweizer Eigentümerin des Hotels, wollte dazu leider keine Stellung nehmen und ist jedem Gespräch ausgewichen.
Das Frühstück ist leider auch nicht sehr einfallsreich.
Wir fahren sicher nicht mehr hin!
Gammalt och dåligt skick, hotellet behöver totalrenoveras, städning på rummet var inte bra, poolen full i färg som lossnar. Kanonbra är dock läget med kanonutsikt.
Zimmer mit Meerblick war sehr super vielen Dank an die Mitarbeiter ihr wart spitze LG Zimmer Nummer 3

Summer Vacation 2019
The property is in an amazing location overlooking the surf although when the sea gets wild it is a bit noisy. Very nice service and generous breakfast everyday. We upgraded as on an extended stay and got a very spacious room overlooking the bay. The main street is close with all the restaurants and bars. The big problem is the beach which is covered in plastic trash and no one wants to take responsibility to clean in spite of it being the living for the whole town. We collected 2 big bags of trash trying to make it cleaner. Not what I want to do on my summer break!
Overall disappointed. Unfortunately for our stay the toilet, shower and then the air conditioning didn’t work. The bed was rock hard. The staff are very friendly and try to sort things out and the owner offered a bottle of wine. The room itself is very dated and needs renovation.Unfortunately I had much higher hopes as I have seen villa elizabeth many times when staying and kata and thought I would try. The location and view from the room was spectacular
Villa Elisabeth was a great place for us, as it fit exactly what we were looking for. Location, Location, Location...
You have a beautiful view of the whole beach right from your balcony and from your bed. The restaurant was some of the very best food we ate in the area and you could easily access all the shops and dining within walking distance.
I did not have to bother finding a spot, renting an umbrella or chair at the beach. I could just sit from my balcony lounger in the shade and enjoy with drinks delivered to my room. I just took a quick walk down the steps to dip in and out of the ocean. It was nice to come back to my room with ease to go to the bathroom or shower off the salt water.
The staff was great and attentive, the rooms were cleaned and fresh towels replaced daily.
Villa Elisabeth is older and has seen better days. If you are looking for a brand new resort that you would find in Palm Beach Florida- then this is not for you. I travel a lot and I do not look for the large resorts- I prefer the hut on the beach- As long as I have a bathroom and running water and a comfortable bed, and direct beach views and beach access. Then I am happy- Villa Elisabeth checked all the boxes for me!
Sijainti ennenkaikkia on hyvä. Villa jossa asuimme oli ihana, aamulla kun avasimme verhot.WAU!!!! Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä, tervehtivät ja kyselivät aina " mitä kuuluu?" Aamiainen merelle aukeavalla teranssilla oli hyvä. Se tarjoiltiin pöytään, vaihtoehtoja oli joko Thaimaalainen tai Amerikkalainen aamiainen, ja vaihtoehtoja monenlaisia.
Rauhallinen paikka, mutta menoa ja vilskettä löytyi kyllä pienen matkan päästä tarvittaessa.

Lovely place ! The staff was very polite and helpful.
Great location: just at the beach.
Overall was pleasant. Staff were welcoming and helpful. They could remember us and tried to communicate with my parents in Chinese, especially during breakfast time.
There was no hot water in our villa #3 since the first day. On the 2nd day, the staff came to repair the water heater, but it didn't work properly after they left. So basically we took cold shower for 2 days.
We enjoyed Jacuzzi on the balcony as it faces Kata beach and the view was fantastic.
Thanks
Skimmelsvamp på toilet og bad var bare malet over. Toilet virkede ikke. Skulle skylle både 3 og 4 gange. Hotellet bar præg af mangeårigt mislighold og de få reparationer der var lavet var ikke forsvarligt lavet. Alting kunne åbenbart repareres med en hammer og en håndfuld søm.
We stayed in the Junior Suite for a week and absolutely loved the view from the room. There was a king and a queen bed which suited our family (2 adults plus kids12 and 9yr). Each morning we enjoyed the breakfast at the outdoor restaurant overlooking the beach beneath a magnificent old tree. Although we went during the wet season (September) the temperature was perfect and we swam each day at the beach and pool.
Pros
1. Nice hotel close to the beach, nice friendly owner & staff and superb breakfast.
2. Love the fact that it is under the trees & close to the beach. Our room facing the sea. Awesome. Expect the fallen dry leaves and twigs. Its natural and they do clean and sweep daily. Thumbs up to the owner.
Cons
1. Need a bit of refurbishment esp to the room closer to the restaurant/beach. I believe these are the original boutique rooms.
- leaking when we stayed there and repair took almost 4 hrs.
- no water on the last day for a few hrs
But we do not expect 100 % perfect. As far as they entertained to the shortfall timely & responsibly.
We surely recommend and come here again.

Hotel staff very welcoming and hotel IS right on the beach- that said, it’s difficult to find and could use some updating. Bed was very hard and water went out for a while the first morning we were there. Was expecting 4 stars, more like 3 stars.
