This resort is slightly hidden away from the main beach area. To get here on foot from the pier, you have to continue up Ton Sai beach to where the path ends and walk along the beach past the school. Some people take a longtail, which isn't totally necessary, but more convenient if you have a lot of bags. All the rooms are private bungalows, some of which are quite a long haul from reception up a steep hill, but the views from the very comfortable and spacious verandas are brilliant. Rooms are fully equipped with air-con, TV, hot showers, mini-bars and safe -- they vary a little in quality but overall are not too bad, and definitely a step up from most of the places you'll find along the way. It's an amalgamation of two resorts -- the Arayaburi has slightly more upscale offerings to the left and in back of reception, and the Bayview accommodation is up on the hill to the right. The resort mainly goes by the Bay View name now. They have a private beach in a cove just past a rocky outcrop that marks the end of Ton Sai beach -- it's a little small but you're only a 10-minute walk from Long Beach. A few Travelfish users have complained about the service here, though when we checked it out the staff catered to us in a professional and courteous manner. Prices have remained steady at the resort and we were quoted the same prices as for the previous few years.

What we were quoted*

* Travelfish researchers visit and review properties on an anonymous basis. By that we mean they show up, in person, and pretend to be either be a potential guest, or somebody looking for a room for a friend or relative. Where possible the researcher will inspect at least a couple of rooms. The rates you see above are what either the desk staff told us they were, or what were in the brochure when they just told us to quit bugging them and look in the brochure. For mid-range hotels and up, always shop around online for a competitive rate. Click here to find out more about what makes Travelfish different with regards our accommodation reviews.
