The Sarann

The hotel is beautiful and the view around this place is amazing! You have an infinity pool with the view of the sea, the breakfast spot is amazing with the view. However since this serene place is a little away from the city you might have to rent a cab or a two wheeler or walk quite a bit to get somewhere. The spot right opposite to the hotel has some 2 wheelers to rent however a complete scam, would not recommend buying or renting anything from them. The hotel staff could definitely be more helpful in terms of guiding or taking special requests but no such help to us was provided. The rooms are indeed beautiful and well built however the jacuzzi sometimes does not work properly or get hot water. I feel the service quality internally is a little sad. Also, I found the breakfast spread quite dissatisfying as there could have been more continental options to suit different taste buds.

Stayed for two weeks. Found the room to be great, Infiniti pool overlooking the beach was very nice. Nice selection of reasonably priced food on the menu with the local dishes being recommended. All staff were friendly and helpful. Particular thanks to Natt at reception for her help.

Be cautious when booking – consider your room’s location carefully Approximately one-third of the buildings are located directly next to a busy road that is used nearly 24 hours a day. Sleeping was nearly impossible due to the constant traffic noise. We stayed for four days (three nights) and asked daily if we could move to another room. Each time, we were told that no other rooms were available. There was no initiative from the hotel to offer a solution or show any flexibility. We had to keep asking, and in the end, we left exhausted. The hotel is also far from any tourist attractions, supermarkets, or the city center. You definitely need a car or an expensive taxi to get anywhere. The rooms themselves are new and well-maintained, and in our case (aside from the entirely avoidable noise issue), worth the 60 EUR/USD per night. The breakfast was good, and the small pool was always clean. So if you’re “lucky,” it can be a pleasant stay – unfortunately, that wasn’t the case for us.

As a travel agent, I recently stayed at The Sarann for a week in a Jacuzzi Villa. Unfortunately, my stay was marred by a few significant issues. During the first two nights, the power in our room went out three times, and despite the inconvenience, there was no compensation or offer of an upgrade—only a move to three different rooms. On the positive side, the rooms were spacious and offered ample room to relax. However, the overall decor felt outdated and in need of refurbishment. Based on my experience, I would rate this hotel no higher than 3 stars.

This is a great hotel, but… Although the location is great with long arching views up cheweng beach; a fab infinity pool; large rooms… We found the back rooms/the ones furthered from the beach suffered a lot from traffic noise. The main road passes immediately to the rear of these. Also. No hot water. Never. Which is odd for a 4 star hotel. Good food. Lovely service. And fabulous outlook.
