Room comfort, cleanliness and pool access

I simply love this hotel. Staff are friendly and efficient. Check in was a breeze. We arrived earlier so the last guest had just checked out. They told us just 30mins and gave us a welcome drink. Friendly reception. We went for lunch and back about 30mins later and the room was ready as promised. Reception explained to us where the breakfast would be served and brought us to our rooms and explained all the ameneties. Felt so welcomed. Even had beach towels and beach mat and slippers for the beach. The pool access is awesome. Went for dip in pool. Noticed some missing tiles but nothing really bad. I also noticed their facilities staff walking around and inspecting stuff like metal guard rails, cleaning leaves from the pool and pond. I like when I see staff especially maintenance staff doing their jobs it means that they are keeping things running.Breakfast was great with a good selection. They keep replenishing the food so even if you came at 10am there's still more food available. They say breakfast is till 1030am but the staff are reasonable and accept a few late comers. Good variety and selection international and local. For a small-ish hotel they impressed me. Location from beach is about 100m. For this I can only give 4 stars. If they were next to the beach it be awesome but still only 100m from the beach. The rest of Kata is blocked by club med so this place is great. Room is comfortable. Huge and high bed. My gf and I loved it. It has a plush feel. So many lazy afternoons there. Then on to the pool for a dip. Evenings spent drinking my whiskey by the balcony watching the pool. The designer and architect are amazing for this concept. Only issues I had was the shower cubicle was a bit of a squeeze and so was the toilet. Also the door locks might had some sensor issues. But those are really minor. Besides those 2 minor issues the rest of it is lovely. I will certainly return.
