Satisfied with the rest at 5, the hotel at 4. The hotel has its own quirks. Well, first of all, the deposit is only in baht. The rate at the hotel is very unprofitable and there is only one exchanger nearby, which must still be reached, God forbid, that it works. Therefore, I recommend everyone to change money at least with the guide on the bus, although they also make money on the course, but not like at the airport or at the reception. The most favorable rate will be in the city in the yellow exchange offices.

Where to spend this deposit then? You can eat and drink in the hotel and write the bill to the room, then the amount will be deducted from the deposit. Although, in a hotel, a restaurant is much more expensive than in the city and in Thai markets, but sometimes you are too lazy to go somewhere and eat at the hotel. They cook well, delicious.

The hotel is aimed at the Russian contingent (in the bulk), there are many signs and announcements in Russian, the staff understands Russian a little (reception), but if there is any problem, they suddenly stop understanding. There are fines for everything here - God forbid losing the key to the safe, breaking something or getting dirty!

This is the only hotel in the area located on the first line, so all guests from neighboring hotels come here (many hotels are of the same owner), so there may be a problem with sun loungers. Well, as it is, we specially chose a hotel on the first line and on you, we can not find a free sunbed, it was occupied by those who bought a tour in three on the 3rd line and came here (because the hotels have an agreement between themselves). Also, the same guests do not hesitate to swim in "our" pool.

The pool is not bad, but when relaxing with children on the pool, keep in mind that there are very deep zones here (1, 8 m), so that the eye and the eye so that the child does not flop there.

There is a beautiful area around the pool, many flowering and fragrant trees. The beach is not bad, the views are simply stunning - the temple of Truth.

But part of the territory to the right of the sea is simply stupid, some kind of forest with trees and not a single shop. It is worth somehow ennobling it or something, organizing recreation areas, in vain it is empty. The trees grow there interesting with aerial roots.

The hotel room we had with a sea view in the main building. I advise everyone to book rooms with a sea view, since you are checking into a hotel on the beach. The furniture in the room is from the past, but the equipment is not bad. Everything you need is there: a tea set, baths, a bathrobe and slippers, even an umbrella. Internet only at the reception (as a result, they connected the package to a local SIM card and were everywhere with the Internet).

From the hotel there is one path, along which there are several cafes, fruit shops and shops, on the same side and an exchange office. Along the side streets you can reach the highway (Naklua) - the road to the city (by tuk-tuk for 10 baht). We found a Thai market almost near the Orthodox church.

The location of the hotel allows access to the fish market. I advise everyone to visit - everything is splashing in the troughs, they will immediately cook you for 30 baht on the grill, in the park next to you you can sit to eat.

For the rest of the entertainment, you need to go to the center - this is Walking Street and shopping centers. And, of course, there are certainly excursions, there are so many of them in Pattaya, it's difficult to decide right away. I would like to go everywhere.

At home, I still started looking for trips, and of all the local companies, I was more inclined to Nika Travel. Upon arrival at the hotel, we contacted the manager, he came to our hotel, we made an advance payment, the rest was paid when boarding the bus. Took a guided tour of the action and got a free trip to the Lagoon (how great it is!).

All liked it! I will not describe for a long time. At the hotel they did not take the guide from the guide, it is not profitable at all (although they say our prices are lower than on the "street" and "promotions", but there is no benefit in the compartment), we never take excursions from a tour operator, from local firms always have better quality and price.

Rest in Pattaya is interesting - we liked it, there is a desire to return, maybe even to this hotel, although its policy makes it a little tense on vacation (deposit, lack of internet in the room, safe at the reception).

The hotel is located at the end of Ka Bay beach, away from everyone. Sea View Resort not only met all expectations, it exceeded them. The photos, which were full of the Internet and the official website of the hotel, cannot be compared with what appeared before us. Even the driver of our minibus who took us, the last tourists to the hotel, said that this hotel has one of the best sea views on the entire beach.
At the reception we were warmly greeted by the already familiar "Sawadi-kaa", we quickly and imperceptibly issued documents while we examined the hotel lobby, figurines of elephants made of flowers (by the way, elephants in various forms were found everywhere, after all, the symbol of the island), a fruit tree, which grew right in the hall ...
The hotel itself stands on a natural hill, which, adorned with all kinds of imaginable and unthinkable flowers and plants, gently descends to the sea. The hotel consists of a main building with standard rooms and deluxe rooms, a series of superior cottages located above all the buildings, just below, a series of deluxe cottages and the most expensive superior spa, deluxe spa and suite spa located right next to the spa right by the sea. the center of the hotel, which is considered one of the best in Ko Chang. All massages as well as all different Spa treatments are offered at this center. We only tried the floral-bath on ourselves (a hot tub with essential oils and flowers), for thirty minutes of bliss we paid 1000 baht for two. But in general, massage is expensive here, for much less money you can find the same thing in the village, albeit with less entourage, glamor and chic.
Electric cars are running all over the hotel. One of them brought us to our cottage. The deluxe cottage was all buried in greenery, pomelo and other fruits grew at arm's length from it, had its own terrace with a stunning view of the sea and the islands, a view that made me want to live on this particular beach, in this hotel ... In front of each cottage there was a vat of water, again strewn with orchid petals, so that we could wash the sand off our feet after the beach. The cottage had everything and even more than needed: a hairdryer, slippers, bathrobes, a TV, a free safe in the closet, a bathroom decorated with flowers, even a kettle and bags of coffee-tea. On the bed are the usual swans of towels, decorated with flowers, and below the sound of the sea .... We are in paradise !!!
The hotel area is small, but very well appointed and beautiful. Downstairs, right on the beach, there is a fancy-shaped swimming pool, a bunch of free sun beds and umbrellas, suspended swings and hammocks, kayak rentals, and the beach itself, immersed in greenery, and the sea. The purest sand, the purest sea, in a word, Bounty))). I will not say that the sand was snow-white, no, it was rather golden and very compacted, at first I could not understand why. But in the morning it became clear ... When we came to the sea the next day, we found it much closer than it was yesterday, practically by the pool. The ebb and flow on Chang is normal, the sea once went very far, so much so that it was possible to walk almost to the islands opposite, if it were not for the corals, we would have done it. However, you need to be careful, the tide is very fast, the water comes literally before our eyes.
A few words about the breakfasts ... I think it is already clear that they are excellent. They cannot compare with our breakfasts in Pattaya .. For breakfast one could taste the first, second, third, and dessert. Rice noodle soups with any filling, salads, European snacks, omelet, which is prepared right in front of you, Thai dishes, pastries, fruits, even waffles were baked. The service at the hotel is excellent, from cleaning to service on the beach. Any ordered dish will be brought (delivered in an electric car) to you directly to the beach, they can be brought directly into the sea, while the dish is carefully wrapped in film so that the sand does not fall.
For lovers of stormy nightlife on Chang and even more so on Ka Bay, and even more so in Sea View Resort it will probably be boring. From all the entertainment of the hotel - live music in the evenings. On the Ka Bay beach in the neighboring Porn's Bungalow in a restaurant right on the beach, they show a fire show (a fire show accompanied by acrobatic music), which is enough to watch at once. We, though young, have enough hustle and bustle and stormy evenings in Moscow, according to our tradition, we loved to sit on the beach, eat shrimp and squid bought inexpensively in the village, or do the same thing on our terrace to the sound of live music and the noise of either the tide or the ebb of the sea ...

Entertainment at the hotel.
In addition to sunbathing, swimming, swinging and bungee jumping and just swimming, the hotel also offers such entertainment as kayak rent. This is a two-seater plastic canoe-type boat. Renting a kayak is fun for the whole day, because, firstly, it is interesting to ride a boat and even paddle, and secondly, on a kayak you can swim to the island opposite (Ko Man Nai) and explore it, as well as mangroves, which grow there, thirdly, the island has a small sandy beach, completely empty and deserted, where you can spend the whole day, and fourthly, around Koh Man Nai you can go snorkeling and not go anywhere, because here is full of fish and corals. All the fun cost 50-60 baht per hour per boat. For those especially interested, you can swim and swim to Ko Man Nai.
The kayak is rented, the camera is tightly wrapped in three packages, in case our craft turns over and we hit the road. To be honest, it is quite difficult to operate this apparatus, besides, the kayak is not very stable, even once we turned over, fortunately, right next to the shore.
Having arrived on the island, on the beach we found a man's parking: a small hut organized right on a tree. You involuntarily begin to feel like Robinson Crusoe. Here, 5 meters from the coast, corals already begin, and you could swim with a mask. The underwater world for me, who had never been to Egypt, was very rich and colorful. True, knowledgeable people said that nothing beats the Red Sea. However, there were many interesting things for me, since I first saw what corals are. There were many small fish, some kind of cucumbers lying on the bottom and as if breathing, at first I thought they were snakes, but then I calmed down, like such algae, and there were also many hedgehogs, the needles of which were sticking out of the corals.
Here, right next to the beach, mangroves began. Such plants, which grow in salt water on the coastal area, are unique in that they convert salt water into fresh water, and their salt crystallizes on the back of the leaves. We decided to sail around the island. On the other side of it, opposite from Chang, the shores are very rocky, in addition, the proximity of the open sea is felt, the waves are very strong. We managed to "park" in a small cove and drag the kayak ashore. Here was the kingdom of crabs, which, clattering with their legs, scattered into the loose. The underwater world in this place was beautiful not with corals, but with stone grottoes and schools of fish, of which there were quite a few. Crunching and chomping was heard everywhere under the water, fish gnaw at corals.
Our friends decided to sail further to the next island. In total, four of them can be seen from the coast of Chang: Koh Yuak, Koh Pli, Koh Man Nok and Koh Man Nai, and it seems that they are quite close to Chang. However, from the coast of Ko Man Noi it became clear that the distance was decent. We also decided to try our hand, but after sailing fifteen meters from Ko Man Noi I got scared, because the waves became even stronger, the water even darker, and the kayak rocked so hard that we turned back. The guys swam to the island and told later what big fish they saw, and even a small stingray at the bottom.

Good day!

We rested pa.
Good day!
I am writing a review in hot pursuit.
We rested as a couple from 10 to 20 February 2018.
We are not picky tourists, we have been to different hotels and inns, we have seen many horrors, so the negative reviews about the hotel did not bother us. The choice fell on him, because this is the first trip to Thailand, and sitting at the computer is hard to have a complete picture of the country. But after reading the comments and reviews, surfing Instagram inside and out, we chose Garden Sea View.
What I can say about the result of the rest is that the reviews are as one true, but you need to sort them for yourself. I will try to describe my opinion being loyal.

Check-in.
As elsewhere at 14 o'clock. We arrived in the dark, so we didn't wait. A deposit of 2000 baht is taken immediately and only in this currency. There is an exchange office nearby (the dollar varied from 30.70 to 30.00 during our stay. For comparison with the street - from 31.40 to 31. Euros, rubles, etc. are also changed. The ATM in the lobby was not used, as in principle anywhere did not use). When checking out (at 12:00) it is returned, but we used it to zero (ate at the hotel cafe). The luggage room is a corner in the staff office.

Room.
We took the Deluxe Sea View during early booking - and settled in it. 4804 - a large building to the right of the main one, if you stand facing the main entrance. Quite spacious room on the 8th floor with 1 large bed and 1 small bed. There is a table and chairs - you can take it out to a modest balcony. Opposite the bed is a desk with a non-flat TV with a bunch of Thai and Chinese channels. We watched channel from Pegas and Russia 1 (poor image quality) in Russian, and there is also channel 49 - popular films in English without ads. Also in the room there is a mini-fridge with bottles of drinking water (volume 0.5, the number depends on the number of residents), which are updated every day for free (if you leave for the whole day and leave them intact - do not wait for additional ones, so we always carried them away even to the beach) and a very creaky wardrobe with robes, slippers and umbrellas. (Regarding this product - do not even think about using it, these things are closely monitored, so if you take them out of the room, spoil them, God forbid you want to take them away as a souvenir - they will be fined. Moreover, these are not disposable things, and they are washed or no - I definitely won't volunteer to speak.) Also, there is a pretty good safe in the closet (if you don't have one in your room, welcome to the safe at the reception). There is a kettle with cups / spoons in the room, next to it are tea / coffee / sugar / dry cream bags. It's all free and replenished.
The bathroom is also spacious with a toilet and a large mirror. There is a hairdryer, shower kits (shampoos, soaps, hats, etc.). The bathroom itself is not the first freshness, but not critical. What was more surprised is that if you use the shower, it is not removable and not adjustable, my young man, to put it mildly, experienced difficulties, since he was very tall, I had to bend down all the time.
There are a bunch of lights in the room, but I never found out where most of them turn on (most likely half are broken).
Air conditioning. Really noisy, but not as frightening as some tourists reviews. The next day you get used to it and do not hear it until the end of the rest. But it is very functional. You can cool the room to 10 degrees in 2-3 minutes, very convenient!
Soundproofing has been worse. In the room itself, the neighbors were not heard, in the bathroom there is a little water and flush. But what really made noise was some kind of mechanism from the 1st or auxiliary floor on the 5th day of rest. Suddenly you hear the sound of turning on, as if the mechanism came into action, after a couple of seconds the final sound - the owners of not silent washing machines will understand - as if things fall when the drum is scrolling. And it bothered me a lot at night, I woke up. What it is, they did not find out, not the reception desk speaks exclusively in Thai, they decided not to waste time and effort.

Cleaning
She's gone. Towels are changed every couple of days, every day they are folded neatly and the bed is made, garbage is taken out, hygiene items are added. Bed linen was changed 2 times in 10 days. (According to our tourists living in the main building on the 2nd floor - they changed every day). Get ready for the dust in your room - this is the norm for Thais. Theft was not found. But they decided not to tip. Once they left them, the cleaning lady took them, but did her job worse than usual.

Food
They cook more for tourists, once the spicy meat for the whole rest was caught in the hotel.
Buffet breakfasts. Every day scrambled eggs, vegetables, fruits, pastries, tea, coffee, rice, 2 types of sausages and tasteless ham, as well as two types of soup. Hot change (noodles, meat, vegetables). Sometimes they cook something extra, but not every day (scrambled eggs, Thai soup, etc.). There are also decent juices, water, cold / hot milk.
You can have lunch / dinner in the restaurant in the lobby or 2 cafes by the pool (the menu is the same, you can use a deposit).
Sweet pancakes are also made by the pool.
Prices are higher than on the street by about 15%, they cook about the same.

Territory
Big, green, lively. It’s alive! There are many birds that cry / sing / chirp from morning to 3-4 hours. Sometimes it's nice, sometimes annoying. According to the mood of the singers) Roosters and cats are running, dogs are running along the beach. A squirrel was seen in the palm zone. Lizards mostly appear in the evening and crawl in the hotel corridors. You can take a lot of photos without leaving the hotel.

Beach.
Pretty big. The water is surrounded by a floating fence, so there is almost no debris. Sand, shells, stones. You can play volleyball and beach soccer. Sunbeds around the beach under palm trees, but they can't stand on the sand itself. From the beach, the Temple of Truth is visible from almost all points. What surprised me was the lack of lifeguards! So be careful. Fish swim in the water, sometimes biting plankton.

Swimming pool.
One in the bungalow area (small)
The second is between the main building and the beach (large, two-level with a waterfall and islands of palm trees). There are also sun loungers / palm trees around. There is a small area for kids. Very nice.

Wifi
This is a big mystery. There are plenty of distribution points, only one lobby works fine, and as all tourists write - in the lobby. But to be honest, day after day is not necessary. Sometimes you could catch by the pool, sometimes even at breakfast, and sometimes the lobby did not work. You constantly have to re-enter. Very uncomfortable. But at the same time, the signal reached the beach for several days.

Service
He's not here. So if you want something, I don’t envy. More precisely, you will either be poorly understood or not understood at all. During my vacation, I had a birthday. I didn't get the bonus from the hotel. And they ordered a gift from Russia (flowers), so they were thrown under the door of the room. What is the problem to put in the number itself, I do not understand. It was very unpleasant. We didn’t go for a massage, they didn’t buy anything in the shops at the hotel, the gym was the last century. There are no huge signs "Toilet" or "Shower", so search and you will find. Beach towels are ok but ancient.

Other
Mostly Slavs and Chinese rest.

Flight
Azurami flew. There, on a large plane, in which there was almost no room (heavy), the food was mediocre. Thank you for giving a sleeping kit (pillow, mask, earplugs) free of charge. Back - on a small one, but at least the place was, the food is much better. Keep in mind, if you fly the same way - 100% charter, get ready to change the time and date of departure, to refuel in India on the way back. (And then 9 hours of flight change to 11).

Tour operator
Anex. They greeted us well, gave us water and tourist sim cards (for calling a guide or urgently somewhere, a day of free messengers opens up, here you have the opportunity not to sit in the Lobby and not get nervous, but go to the local supermarket "7/11" and for 89 baht you they will connect the Internet for a week, however, we did not use it). The guide on the way told a lot and completely. The return trip to Russia was terrible. It's just some kind of test. Picked up 6 hours before departure (perhaps we were just unlucky) and froze on the bus.
Hotel guide. THIS IS A SEPARATE TOPIC. I have not met such a boor for a long time. The name is Orhan. Don't even think about going to a meeting with him if you don't plan to go on excursions with Anex. I still remember him with horror. For 2 hours at a meeting, he talked about his past, some friends and friends, and he was reluctant to answer all our questions. If asked, he betrayed aggression. He pushed 5 excursions, about which he himself considered it necessary to tell. And he repulsed all desire to go anywhere at all. He answered questions about other excursions that were interesting to us in such a way that he made it clear "You won't go there and that's it." You know, this is not a guide, but some kind of huckster, whose key argument is "You won't find cheaper", which, of course, is not true. Persuaded us to go on a free sightseeing tour. I read in the reviews that this is a waste of time that they carry around the shops. But I didn't think ALL DAY. ABSOLUTELY ALL DAY FROM STORE TO STORE. And then there is a huge deuce to both Aneks and Orhan. They just stole the whole day. But if you love shopping, go ahead. Of course, it's not all bad. Between the shops, the guide told quite interesting information (I remind you, this is our first trip to Thailand, maybe that's why it was interesting) We visited: an orchard (tasted fruits, walked, tasted exotic teas), a snake farm (looked at a snake, a snake show (quite funny , you will not regret it), there was an opportunity for an additional fee to try a snake, tasted a snake tincture), Big Buddha Hill (but since we were brought there at the end and at dusk, it was not possible to fully enjoy it). And ending with the topic of the hotel guide. He gave false information on the flight. On our call with questions, they received a bunch of "Dear" (this is his favorite word) and rudeness, sent us to the Anex hotline to sort it out ourselves. In general, they called Anex, Azur air, looked on the Internet, in short - they found out everything themselves, they also wrote for the rest of the guests at the information stand, but Orkhan never showed up at the hotel. My advice is not to mess with, so as not to spoil your mood.

Infrastructure around.
I advise you to study the reviews of the hotel with Google maps in front of your eyes. I did just that, so I knew about everything about the area. The hotel is located in the Naklua area and there is one road from it, here on it all shops and cafes are located, there are excursion bureaus. This is a tourist area, therefore, as everyone said, it is more expensive than in the city. But in principle, the prices are reasonable. You can take a Pattaya card from the first Family Mart for free. Two main tips - many goods are cheaper in the pharmacy (located at the bend of the main road) than in the supermarket, there is also a yellow exchange office - it is more profitable than the first one, which is closer to the hotel. We ate (mostly) at the Coconaut Cafe (from the tourist reviews below). At the entrance, a specific smell that you get used to, super wi-fi, good-natured hosts, sports broadcasts and a large selection at very reasonable prices!
The location of the hotel is really remote from the city center, you have to go by 2 tuk-tuk or taxi.
For children, the hotel has nothing but a pool.

Tours
I studied this issue in advance, so we traveled from Russian guys: Discovery 7in1 (entertainment, almost everyone offers a similar one in Pattaya in different variations. Here you can find zoos, plantations, farms, and temples. They are well fed), Military Beach ( Or the Blue Lagoon - incredible beautiful beach on the mainland), and went to the island of Ko Sichang (the island of fortune, just an incredible journey ending on another blue beach). Who cares more - contact me, I'll throw the link, they have a whole site.

The bottom line.
You can go. This is one of the cleanest bathing hotels in Pattaya, everyone is talking about it. There will be no frenzied parties and some kind of hell, so for a quiet rest, if you want not to be touched, it is ideal. I think everyone will find their pros and cons here, and different things will happen to everyone, everything will depend on a dozen factors. We have been on beach vacation were not, so we had a great rest, and closed our eyes to all the little things. In general, it all depends on your personal plans and desires from the rest, but personally, I could easily come here again \u003d)))
