Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    Relatively small, attractive beach full of mostly European tourists. No waves when I was there. Massages offered beachside.

    Great spot for sunset - although it get very crowded at that time.
    The car gate is closed so you need to go up stairs - 2 minutes walk.

    On a rainy day we were well sheltered on our our covered shing pontoon. The guides were so friendly and knowledgeable. It's a great atmosphere there. Good food served too. A slow start but bagged a lovely pacu (a first for me, the ones with weird teeth!). Would definitely recommend and will return.

    A bit overwhelming at first even though we chose a good time in early evening. Apparently lunch time is very busy.
    So you choose and buy your own seafood and take it across the road where a restaurant will give you a menu from which you choose how you want the fish,crab,razor clams, prawns or whatever you have bought should be cooked.
    Choose at least two things or do it in relays one at a time. Very affordable compared to Western style or city sea food restaurants.

    So glad we decided to visit this island via long tail boat. Only 15 minutes from Rawai. Just stunning. We walked 10 minutes through the trees to get to an even more secluded part of the island. Well worth the trek. Only 11 people on this part of the beach. 3-4 hours is enough.

    Came here for a birthday party. Everything was well prepared and the kids had a fantastic time. I think the only improvement could have been for staff to clear the table and not leave food/dirty dishes out for hours.

    We went as a group of friends (4 ppl) for a one day trip by sailing catamaran. The whole trip was worth the money. Although not much activity to do on the island, but if you like a very private beach with nice blue sea and white sand. You'd love this island as much as we do!

    One of the rare snorkeling spots with a reef close to beach.
    But the restaurant has been abandoned and they are building a resort there now 😭.
    Parking for cars has been fenced off.
    You see mostly Russian residents and tourists. Especially on weekends 🤔, many walking on the corals and some even fishing with spear guns.
    In high season, the hydro foil surfers ruin it for snorkeling and diving.
    It's crazy to think the authorities don't protect this at all, given it's one of the only popular places on Phuket snorkeling was possible. Overtourism...

    Basic rooms , but price is excellent, lovely views [at high tide]. Very nice ambience with a real Thailand feel, compared to so much "concrete and tile" at so many other places. Excellent quality [not typical] Live music on Friday nights by a talented musician that we enjoyed so much we visited again two more times even though we were no longer staying there.

    This is a great little beach. The water is safe for all ages and is nice and quiet for Phuket beaches. There is fruit sellers on the beach and its a good spot just to chilland unwind.
