Dolphin Bay Beach Resort

It's a perfect place with kids. I was with my toddler and it was safe for her to roam around and explore everywhere. Amazing playground, nice pool. Even a little movie room, though it could use some fresh toys. Good kids meal options. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a nice family vacation spot.. also - amazing breakfast buffet! And very easy going atmosphere, very friendly to get in touch with the other guests.

Transport options were extremely overpriced. The "western" food was very greasy and prices quite high compared to other costs. That said, it was nice to have a few western meal choices after a longer period of time travelling through Thailand. The room facilities need updating, the bathroom cupboards were broken. But nothing major. The housekeeping woke my daughter from her lunchtime nap after having mentioned the nap multiple times at reception.. not very good internal communication. Maybe just a one off :)

Small, comfortable resort well set-up for families just off the beach. Everything you need is right there: beach, pool, garden, hammocks, playground, gym, laundry, bikes, restaurant. The staff were amazing, even digging through the morning garbage to find my daughter's retainers that had accidentally been taken off the table with a napkin. The breakfast overlooking the ocean was delicious with a bit of variety each day and all the staples of a hotel breakfast you would expect. We booked 2 bungalows and asked for them to be next to each other and in the end they were connecting! If you want a serene view, calm and small resort, helpful staff, and an empty beach for long walks and sand castles, and you don't care too much about swimming in clear water or cheap food access or getting a great deal on an amazing room, then this is perfect.

Our AC was not that strong in one of the bungalows, and the water pressure was hardly enough to get the shampoo out. The beach is better for shell/crab collecting than swimming (water is not clean + jellyfish on beach), and the pool was a bit cold in January so the kids didn't swim much. There was no street food available on this beach and it was very quiet, so eating restaurant food added up quickly for our family. We booked two bungalows rooms, but if you only book one, you share a porch and wall and maybe even a connecting door with the people beside you, which could be weird depending on your neighbor. For the price we paid, I think there may be better options at beaches with cleaner water which don't require long bus or taxi rides to access.

Great location in the Sam Roi Yot resort area. The resort is perfectly maintained and had so many features you don't even need to leave. It is very family friendly so there are playground, sports equipment, bikes, a kids pool etc. It also means that the place is super quiet after 8pm so you don't have kiddos you can have a peaceful night. Directly across from the beach which is swept every morning. Scooter, bike rental available to explore the area. Restaurant was great, 5 stars. Staff are amazing and helpful for all our requests to organise transport, scooter hire, and a boat tour etc. Always smiling! Hopefully be back

We had a bungalow and the bathroom shower had no rim and water leaks everywhere but oh well, still hot and good pressure

Fantastic resort with great location and 10/10 amenities. Children friendly and pet friendly. Breakfast have lot of healthy options. Room is also very comfortable and well thought amenities. King size bed and very comfortable. Have 42 inch big Google tv, easy to play YouTube videos for night party ;). Have private beach with good island views. Definitely one of our best visited resort in this budget, will love to visit aging in near future.

WIFI is little fluctuating

Perfect for the kids. We traveled with a 6, 8, 10 and 11 year old plus grandparents in the 3 bdrm condo. There was food everyone was happy with and the restaurant being next to the pool to watch the kids was great. We found a ton of shells on the beach. Spent one day at the WFFT enjoying native and rescued wildlife and another morning hiking the cave.

The water got very very HOT. Definitely something to be aware of with young kids. Water pressure wasn't great either.

Kids play areas and the pool. We have a 3 year old and 1.5 year old and it is perfect place for young kids, grass area with wooden play areas and two pools, one with a slide. Nice access across the road to the beach. Breakfast OK considering the price.

Nothing really. Traffic was awful from Bangkok, so probably would not come down again for the long weekend, but of course this is nothing to do with the hotel!

I liked the overall service and ambience of the resort. The pool and facilities are maintened well. Property is Kids freindly and have menu for the kids, which reduces parents worries during a trip. Happy to stay in the same resort during our next visit.

The rooms are well maintained, however there was bad smell from the toilets when we entered the room. I would suggest a room freshner to be sprayed in the room before the guest enters.

The hotel was very nice, with a garden and a pool. It was very relaxing. The staff was very nice and helpful. We could get a van to the Phraya Nakhon Cave. What we liked: a large desk where I could work on, the pool and Netflix when it was raining.

The breakfast was a bit pricey, for what they offer. The toilet stank a bit when we turned on the ventilation - but not too alarming.

- Very friendly staff and professional waiters - Tasty breakfast - Nice location - Good base if you want to explore the nearby national park or if you have kids as hotel is really well prepared for families with kids

- The room did not look like on the pictures, older and not that nice - There was mould in the bathroom and stains on the window curtains

Opposite of the beach. Spaceous rooms. Pleasant staff. Decent restaurant. Strong coffee.

I knew it is a family resort, and we stayed here because friends with kids were staying here. I don't think I would come back as a couple without kids. Nothing against kids, but I guess non parents know what I mean ;) Rooms are relatively noisy.
