Great if you can afford the beach side
It’s a great resort if you can afford the beach side. I went through Hotels.com, then decided to upgrade after it was too late. It cost me. I paid more than anyone in my group. But if you’re a couple - the beach side villas with the plunge pool is top notch
Plunge pool villa. Perfect for a couple. Private and gorgeous.

L’hotel ha posizione ottima, centrale ma limitrofa alla zona più caotica, a 5 min di tuktuk! Ottima posizione di tranquillità e privacy! Ottima colazione! Struttura molto bella con aree e piscine meravigliose!! Area spa e massaggi fantastica!! Unica pecca mare vicino ma non c’è una spiaggia privata, bisogna muoversi su altre spiagge dell’isola!! Staff cordiale!!

Crap - avoid at all costs!
Absolutely pathetic! Don’t think how this hotel got 5 stars rating! Nothing works in the room. Sockets are miles away from the bed! Rooms are outdated and needs a massive revamp! Room is not at all tasty! Only good thing about this place is the staffs. They are courteous, friendly and willing to help! Avoid this place - go elsewhere! You won’t regret it!

Absolutely beautiful hotel. Nothing quite compares to having your swimming pool outside your door. The room was fantastic, and the service was outstanding. Ocean currents have removed most of the sand on the hotel's small beach. If you want a beach experience, you'll have to travel south to Chaweng or Lamai beach. Overall, I would certainly recommend this hotel.

Fabulous hotel with amazing staff who were welcoming and efficient! Our hotel room was up in the mountain and had a stunningly breathtaking view and excellent transportation through the villa. The infinity pools were well kept, beautifully located and had a swim up bar. The location was close to the action. I would highly recommend this location and can’t wait to go back!

We had a wonderful stay here. The resort is beautiful and a short taxi ride from the busy Chaweng strip. It was very easy to get into town but we enjoyed the quiet comforts of the resort. The staff were friendly and welcoming and made us feel at home. Would definitely come back here again!

This resort was a let down, it was build on the side of a steep mountain, you need to get a golf cart to take you to your room. Our rooms where located all the way at the top, the garden was a mess weeds around, electrical wires hanging out, old rusty air conditioners sitting on the side walk. The room smelled like mold, was outdated, to operate the lights you had to use some kind of chinese control panel system next to the bed which looked like it was make in 1980. Breakfast was ok, it felt like a Carnival cruise line buffet, crowded, you have to wait in queue to order eggs. The location is strange theres a tunnel you need to go under to get to the beach, which is covered in garbage, with all 300 employees none of them can clean the beach. The hotel appears to be built for chinese mega tourists but ended up being rented by normal travellers, and its a mess. You have to ride a "Taxi" to get anywhere. Staff at front desk wasnt helpful, nobody to help carry your bags. I dont suggest this place unless you are on a tight budget and even then go stay near the real beach.

Beautiful Setting
We stayed for 7 nights at the Nora Buri. It was our second visit. The views are stunning. Breakfasts are amazing as are the staff. Two cautions - many, many steps and costly to take daily taxi to Chaweng Centre. Resort should provide shuttle service.

The resort is beautiful. We wake up to our villa pool, sunrise view and seaview every morning, it was so wonderful. Staffs are super friendly. The hotel breakfast was great also. I don't really think the beach accessed from the hotel is somewhere you can really swim to? The wave was pretty strong and there's lots of garbage washed up ashore. Aside from that, great stay, definitely a hotel to return to.
