A brilliant finish to a hectic tour of Burma. The transfer, by 1940's palm decorated bus, was bumpy but short and fun. The welcome was extremely friendly and our room large and well equipped (we loved the mini bar which is a chest with fresh ice every day). The beach extremely clean and provides the ideal setting for a morning... More

After a fairly hectic two weeks traveling around Myanmar it was wonderful to be here for 5 days.We had a beautiful villa on the beach and spent the days reading, sleeping and watching the ocean, it was perfect. We had wonderful food in the restaurant some nights and walked the beach for seafood and a beer on the other nights.... More

What can I say about this hotel that hasn't already been said? We had the most laid back and wonderful time here and it was a perfect place to finish our holiday in Myanmar. Right from the smooth transition from Arrivals at Thandwe onto the hotel bus into the hotel complex, being sat down on the beach front with a... More

What a relaxed and peaceful place! The resort occupies a broad swathe of the sea-front along what must be one of the finest beaches in Asia. Over 5km long, and surprisingly broad, the beach itself is surprisingly clean and sea swimming is excellent. Built some years ago, Sandoway Resort is reached down a drive lined with flowers and consists of... More

The resort is on one of the most picturesque and pristine beaches in SE Asia. The seaview villas are well appointed and exceptionally spacious. The hotel restaurant is very good, but cannot compete with the excellent local restaurants in the immediate area behind the resort. A wonderful place to relax, very quiet perhaps lacking a little atmosphere in the evenings... More

Stayed 6 nights in a Beach Front Villa. This was the last stop on our Selective Asia tour. The setting - full sea view, 50yds to a clean (every morning the sand is raked) soft sand beach and your own sunshade and chairs. On the verandah were two relaxing chairs (ask for seat pads- thks to a previous reviewer for... More

What a fabulous end to our amazing trip. Our five night stay was perfect. This pink painted hotel is beautiful. We upgraded to a seaview villa but all the rooms and cottages looked spacious and of great quality. Location fantastic. Lazy days on this golden sandy beach watching the local life go by. Hotel food abd beverages excellent and well... More

We spent the last few days of an exhausting trip relaxing on the beach here. We very much liked our split-level beach-front cottage and we thought it was a great arrangement for each room to have its own assigned beach umbrella - no nasty towels on chairs syndrome here. However we did find the lighting in the rooms not good... More

Our stay at the Sandoway of 12 days was something to remember, and a return visit is a must! We have travelled extensively, and it is one of the best places that we have ever stayed. The Management, staff, atmosphere, accommodation, and food were all of exceptional quality. For ourselves we had a beach front cottage, which I feel is... More
