5 min by taxi from  Adrin beach .big room. lot of stairs . very good service . no spa only massage.   not in commercial area

Small and quiet resort with great view

Unfortunately we were a group of 4 who left it too late to book for New Years. We found this place and even though it was over priced we didn't have many other options so we went for it. When we arrived, the staff member who worked there (Benjamin) didn't seem to have any idea about our arrival or how long we were staying and just trusted the fact that we had booked online. When we got to our room there was no fold out sofa (to Benjamin's surprise) so two of us had to sleep on the floor on some extra sunbed cushions which turned out to be quite comfortable. The so called "chilling" pool/spa that was attached to our balcony was a murky brown for the duration of our stay but other than that the balcony was quite spacious and comfortable with a hammock, a sunbed and a table with some chairs. In our room both the TV and the fan were broken and there was no toilet paper in the bathroom but thankfully the air conditioning still worked. We had a great view overlooking the ocean but be aware that this "Resort" is built into a very steep hill and there are lots of stairs. There is now a path at the bottom of the property that goes through the dense bush and leads you to the small beach and to Boom's Café. This restaurant and beach was the best thing about our stay. The food was great (we had breakfast there everyday), reasonably cheap and a great place to waste the day away while drinking cheap beers. I thought the location was great if you actually want to sleep some of the nights that you are here. It's about 5-10 minutes away from Haad Rin so unless you want to pay 100 baht per person every time you get a taxi I would recommend renting a motorbike/scooter. We got ours for 200 baht a day and were able to explore the island. When we were leaving we were asked by Benjamin if we had already paid for our stay or whether we still needed to pay the balance... Unfortunately we had to tell him that we had already paid. If we had known how disorganised this place was we definitely could have stayed for free. For the price they charge I wouldn't stay here again.

comfortable but not much else

We stayed here 4 nights. This is really lovely place with breathtaking view. But the maintenance is far too careless. It is so sad, because this could be 4 star resort easily with just little investment. 

The place looks really good, everything is decorated with good taste. The pool area is pleasant but it has lost it´s glory days. The terrace is in bad condition and it should be fixed immediately! There is holes on the terrace wood and if you move the sun beds (as we did) there is a real danger that you end up stepping on one of those holes. That happened to my friend and she hurt her knee on the terrace woods. She got some scratches and bruises. The staff saw the accident and helped my friend up from the hole. We told them they should fix the holes a.s.a.p. Also the pool should be painted just like some paint would be needed in the bathrooms sink area. 

The staff is ok but not really that friendly. They seem to be frustrated and tired. There is one guy who is really nice. He is working really long days and taking care also of the night guarding. 

Breakfast is not included in the room rate. I had omelette, fresh fruits, cup of tea and a glass of orange juice. They costed 330 baht!!! It is a lot of money of a breakfast. We used also their laundry service. They charge 40 baht for the normal service. But if you want to get your laundry back at the same day it costs 80 baht.

There is no access to the beach. And the Baan Khai beach is not worth to go. And the wi-fi is working only on the pool area and the restaurant.

If you stay in this resort, it would be good if you are able to drive scooter. Otherwise you end up paying quite a lot of money for taxis. The taxis at Ko Phangan aren´t the cheapest ones. From Thong Sala pier it costs 100 baht/person to Baan Khai and also to Had Rin. We tried to negotiate to get taxi with 50 baht to Baan Khai, but they all are charging the same price. If you take a taxi to Had Rin from ViewPoint Resort, do not pay more than 80 baht. Taxis try to charge you 100 baht but do not pay it. 

We walked 3 kilometers to Pharmacy and 7/11 shop. Then we took taxi back to ViewPoint REsort and the price was once again 100baht/person. 

We took a taxi to Thong Nai Pan Beach and he asked for 1000 baht to drive there. We negotiated quite a long time and made a deal with the driver. He took us to the beach with 900 baht and for the return drive he took only 700 baht. We checked both beaches on Thong Nai Pan and liked the southern one more (Thong Nai Pan Yai). It is cleaner and it has nicer restaurants and bars than Nai Pan Noi. There was also some construction work going on at Nai Pan Noi. 

Taxis are charging much more at Ko Phangan than on the other islands in Thailand. You should be negotiating to get a lower price. Otherwise the taxi rates end up to enormous amounts at Ko Phangan.

Would deserve 4 stars if had better maintenance

The owners where very nice, spoke good english and helpful. The view was amazing. The resort was only a five minute taxi ride to Haad Rin which cost 100 baht. 

It was defently not a 'spa resort'. We went with a group and only one of the three rooms we used had cable TV. The free Wifi was only available in the restaurant. The restaurant consisted of two sets of table and chairs and a couch. There was no spa at all and we could not find a way to the beach from the hotel.

The hotel was on a very steep hill and therefore had very steep steps defently not good for children or when it's raining or with heavy bags.

Overall the hotel was a good place to sleep and good for not much else which would not have mattered if they where not offered in the first place. 

Not what it seems!

We booked this hotel through Asiarooms.  When we turned up on the day we found it was now private apartments.  Fortunately we found a vacancy not far from there ( being full moon!) we are now trying to get our money back from Asiarooms who are totally oblivious to the fact it is no longer a hotel. Surely we're not the first to have this problem?
