Delicious Meals

During my stay, Chef Isaiah created an amazing menu tailored to our preferences. The fish and curried lentils were delicious, and he even prepared pumpkin soup that I can still taste! The attention to detail in preparing such nice meals truly enhanced our experience.

Refreshing Swimming Pool

The pool provided a great way to relax during the hot afternoons. It was well-maintained and a perfect spot to unwind after exploring. Whether it was a quick dip or lounged by the water, it added a lovely touch to my relaxation time.

Amazing Birdwatching

The resort's garden is a true paradise for birdwatchers! During my stay, I enjoyed spotting various bird species, thanks to the very nice environment on the hotel. It was one of the highlights of my visit and something I looked forward to every morning.

I had an excellent experience during my stay, especially during the Christmas period. The location is fantastic, just a 5-minute walk to the lake, and the view from the platform was breathtaking. The rooms were immaculate, and the food was delicious, with a very attentive chef. However, I encountered some issues with the overall organization and room type during my stay, which could be improved.

I had a mixed experience during my stay at this resort. On one side, I appreciate how clean the resort was and the dedication of the staff. Brian, the driver, was exceptional, always ready to take us wherever we wanted, and Chef Wilson's meals were delightful. However, the room situation left much to be desired, especially with some lacking air conditioning. Also, the dining options were minimal due to fewer guests, which impacted variety.

I had a mixed experience at Sandai Resort. While the staff, particularly Vincent, were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we felt comfortable during our stay, the accommodations were quite basic and a bit worn down. The resort is in a beautiful location for birdwatching and has a lovely pool area, but the dining options were limited due to a lack of guests. Overall, it’s a decent option for budget travelers looking for a friendly atmosphere, but don’t expect luxury.
