Four restaurants and three bars as well as a spa with six double treatment rooms, gym and sauna, are amongst the leisure activities offered in the resort. Besides various water-sport activities the resort has its own scuba diving school, offering in-house trials and excursions to the Surin and Similan Islands, which are top spots for divers. Transfers from and to nearby attractions as well as airport pickups are handled by the resort’s own fleet of vehicles.
