We stayed for 3 nights at The Slate and booked via Designhotels as this is where we found the best conditions.
We had the most fantastic stay at this beautiful resort. Our room had a beautiful large balcony with a super comfortable daybed and a really cool outdoor bathtub. We enjoyed our early morning coffee (free coffee & tea facilities in the room) on the daybed, overlooking the beautiful palm trees and gardens.
A super plus point was the walk in closet as well which was very spacious.
Every single employee made us feel so welcome, from the arrival where our daughter and I were given a beautiful flower, to the children amenities in the room, to the outstanding service at the pool, in the restaurants and from housekeeping.
We enjoyed pre-dinner drinks and tapas at Rebar, we loved the atmosphere at Tokah Tin, watching the World Cup, the Salads and Smoked Chicken at the Poolside Café were devine. Breakfast was to die for — huge varieties from dim sum to pancakes. And the dinner at Black Ginger was one of the best ever. Already the arrival experience with the boat at the restaurant made us feel like being in a James Bond movie.
My husband went to a cooking class which he enjoyed a lot and I went to the kids club with our little daughter who loved all the activities. If your child is above 4, you can even drop her off there and she can enjoy activities like colouring, an excursion to find crabs at the beach and other craft activities and you pick her up later.
There are 2 adult pools which are perfect to enjoy some down time. Nevertheless, we had the best time in the family pool. There are plenty of day beds around the pool and also pool noodles and toys for the little ones.
The active person should also hit the gym with the newest equipment or attend one of the scheduled activities like yoga, Pilates, Thai boxing, etc.
We usually like to travel to different places and try out different hotels, nevertheless The Slate made us plan our next trip to Thailand already and we will make sure to stay here again!
