“Poor condition hotel but it has a lot of potential”

We arrived to Ko Kho Khao late at 6 pm with no hotel bookings, we rented a motor bike in one of the shops of the pier (on the island side - 200 THB/day).

We arrived to Ko Kho Khao late at 6 pm with no hotel bookings, we rented a motor bike in one of the shops of the pier (on the island side - 200 THB/day). Then we took the main road to find a hotel we visited 2 hotels and were closed due to low season, then we found Tacola resort, the entrance and reception looked promising, after checking a couple of different rooms we decided for a front beach bungalow, the manager was sincere and said that it was the same price as the regular bungalows due that the private pool was out of service. The room was very good, clean sheets, decent mattress, pillows didn't smell and the overall setting was good, however as we started using the toilet and bathroom, the signs of poor maintenance were evident. The shower head was falling apart and the water was spraying everywhere (but I must say it was fixed next morning), the toilet was constantly dripping water (into the bowl) therefore every two minutes it was refilling. The cold water had a soil smell, however the hot water didn't smell and the bath had stain marks of the dripping tabs. The good stuff: Aircon was very good and it didn't blow in your face, so we had a very cool nice night. Towels were clean and they provided a good amount for the pool and room. The mini fridge was big and quiet, no items in it besides the complementary water bottles. The room was big and very comfortable with an area for reading/watching TV and a small dinner table setting. During the day the room had plenty of natural light. Breakfast was good and included in the room price (1500 THB), it was supposed to be mini buffet but they gave us a fruit plate, a simple but big salad, eggs, sausages, bacon, ham and bread, along with tea or coffee. The restaurant food was absolutely delicious, we opted for Tom Yam soup and fried rice... twice. The not so good: The hotel has a big potential but is now poorly maintained, you can see it in the restaurant, the paths, the overgrown weeds around the rooms and light fittings. the swimming pool area "looks very nice" but when you get close is a different story, the bottom of the pool is dirty, although the water looks clean is also is missing chlorination. Sun chairs are functional but in poor condition, colours are fading and the fabric tearing apart. The gym is functional but rusty on the surface. Communication: 3G is available 3 bars out of 5, wifi is also available for free with a decent speed. Transport/location: you need a motorbike to move around, although the Hotel has a shuttle bus, some places are better going by yourself. You can actually drive on the beach very carefully. We went to Sunset beach (north west corner of the island) and drove on the beach to the river delta. There is a Tsunami muster point 100 metres away from the hotel, the building is more than 5 metres elevated from the ground and has another two levels on top (as a recommendation we always kept our bag Tsunami ready just in case). Mini markets are located in the pier where you can also get gasoline and only one ATM (up to 20000 THB in one transaction). If you are with kids, this hotel cannot be recommended due to the bad condition of the swimming pool. You better check the sunset beach resort, it has a very nice swimming pool and a child friendly atmosphere, I'd say is the best one of the island as we check all of them. This hotel is actually good if you are planning to go out and explore the island the whole day. But not as a resort.
