We greatly enjoyed our stay at Da Kanda Villa. The beach at Thong Sala is remarkable for being so close to the pier….long, tree-lined, fine white-powder sand, and generally well-maintained.
The person in charge of the front desk was a delight to work with when arranging transportation and other tasks. She instantly made us feel welcome and was always ready to help.
While the facilities remain attractive, they seem a bit shabby. The boxwood-type hedges were in dire need of trimming, and the room smelled musty with the presence of mold in the bathroom. This seems rather typical of Thai resorts of a certain age, as it is not the first of its condition we have encountered. A strengthened grounds and facilities maintenance regimen is in order.
