A resort in Chaweng

Bungalows around a central pool
The accommodation is arranged as standalone bungalows, each with a patio and views of the garden, pool, or inner courtyard. The outdoor swimming pool sits at the property's centre, accessible to all guests.
Garden and courtyard setting
Bungalows open onto a patio with garden or courtyard aspects. The layout means most rooms have a degree of visual separation from one another rather than sharing a corridor.
Restaurant and bar on-site
The resort runs its own restaurant and bar, so guests have a dining option without leaving the property. Room service is also available for those who prefer to eat on their bungalow patio.
