This was a real vacation trip and I intended to take my dog to the beach for the first time. I booked directly with the resort last year. This trip was booked 6 months in advance. You might ask why I booked so far in advance. It's because I wanted the best possible time and had time to arrange my personal business and to make sure I had a room. However, I made the decision to go on this trip in one day and had to call the salesperson to ask if they had sent the quotation so I could transfer the money. The staff had to send it to me right away.

- The package price for 3 days 2 nights is 7200 per person for a villa room with a canal view. I intend to stay in this type of room. I am not very interested in the sea view because the accommodation is located at the mouth of the canal, which is interesting because most of the time will be spent in the lobby area. Therefore, the sea view is almost unnecessary. I have seen the sea view often. I prefer to sit in the seats provided in the lobby. Because the view of each seat is amazing. You can take pictures or just sit and relax with the view in front. The view is beautiful depending on the time of day.

- In terms of service, I must say that the staff is very dedicated to providing excellent service. All the staff, both Thai and foreign, are passionate about service and are ready to serve customers even before they ask. They are always ready to ask about the needs of the customers and greet them throughout their stay. It's no wonder that there are hardly any leaves on the ground, as the staff is constantly sweeping them away. They sweep around each villa and inform guests about the various activities. During meals, they ask about dietary restrictions and preferences and refill drinks when they are half empty. The staff at the resort is very attentive to detail, as you can see from the photos I have posted.

- In terms of food, I must say that this resort is all-inclusive for every meal. It's a must-visit for foodies because you'll be eating non-stop. Everything is delicious, and no matter how many photos you take, you won't be able to capture it all. I've only included a few highlights, but for food lovers, I recommend everything. It's all buffet-style, but I couldn't handle more than one outfit change.

On this trip, I was a little lucky because I arrived at the check-in counter at 7:30 am. The staff asked if I wanted to take the 8:00 am boat, and I agreed because the scheduled departure time to the island was 11:00 am. I arrived at the island at 8:40 am, after a 40-minute boat ride. The waves were calm, and the weather in the morning was good. The staff came out to greet me and told me that the room would be ready soon. They would let me know when it was ready. So I sat around, took some pictures, and relaxed.

If you want to spend your time relaxing and unwinding from the hustle and bustle of life, I highly recommend it. The views and atmosphere are beautiful, as you would expect, but what I loved most about this place was the exceptional service. It truly made me feel like the money I spent was worth it, like I was treating myself. I'll tell you, after just the first day, I told my partner that this place was too cheap! I'm usually someone who does everything myself, but here, the staff did everything for me. It was almost like I was paralyzed! Honestly, I usually prefer to do things myself, but the staff here wouldn't let me lift a finger.

We arrived at Laem Sok Pier in the morning. I wanted to bring Tia to take photos, but she was scared, so I let her stay on the shore for now.

Upon arrival, we checked into our villa. We were assigned villa number 5, which was conveniently located near the beach and the resort's activity area.

The locals came to say hello, and there was a low growl, so we had to rush them into the room first.

While Milo, the resident cat, was guarding the low area, he walked out to take pictures of the surroundings first.

The rain came as soon as I arrived here, just as the Meteorological Department predicted.

Milo went back to the room. He wasn't there. I took the shorty out for a walk. He can sleep now.

It's raining. I'm so bored. I'm taking Teea back to the room.

Oh, what's up? I just fell asleep for a bit. I just put the dog back in the room. Okay, it's noon, so let's eat lunch first.

After lunch, I walked around to wait for my girlfriend to change clothes and then we went to play in the water. I took some photos while we were waiting.

Teea's first trip to the sea

Running ahead without waiting for the boss.

Running trips forget old age. Seeing this, tears will flow.

Still not used to the sand, walking on tiptoe. Usually swimming in the pool, coming to the sea for the first time, running and forgetting about being old.

How about trying some seawater? How is it?

"Can we take a picture together? I know you want to keep playing in the water."

Come and soak in the water in the shade for a bit. My boss is already black.

Come on, let me smell your breath. Does your mouth stink?

Exhausted. Been out on the balcony for a long time, the wind is cool.

I'm tired. Let me sleep for a while.

While the mother was breastfeeding, the father took pictures of the baby playing and sat down to relax on the next seat.

For those who can't paddle, there are staff members here to help you paddle.

There are many beautiful and cute corner seats.

It's almost dinner time. Let's take some pictures of the evening view.

During meal times, please do not bring your dog outside. It may disturb other guests. Not everyone finds our dog cute.

Woke up early and took the shorty to the bathroom, went for a walk and took some pictures, before his father went diving for half a day.

Early in the morning, most of the guests are still asleep, so we took Teea for a walk and took some pictures.

Mission accomplished, bringing my beloved dog and loved ones on a trip

Normally, Tia doesn't like to have her picture taken, but here she is, very still.

We took it for our girlfriend.

My fan took this picture for me.

Okay, let's take some landscape photos.

Milo, the big one, and Yai Lamyai, the small one, Yai Lamyai jumped low on the first day, her fur stuck to her mouth.

After returning from diving in the morning, I had a big lunch of fried rice with lots of crab. I let the dog rest in the room for a while.

After lunch and a shower, take the dog out for a walk.

During that time, I also secretly crouched down at some points to capture the atmosphere, because the dog was very attached to its owner.

Another thing that impressed me was the staff here. They were constantly sweeping leaves around the villas, accommodation and walkways.

In addition to the main meals, there are also afternoon snacks from 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM. It is recommended not to eat too much, as it will spoil your appetite for dinner. Everything is delicious.

While Teea was enjoying the Vietnamese noodle soup that her girlfriend made for her, we secretly took another picture of her.

I went snorkeling in front of the beach. I heard a dog barking in the distance.

The front of the beach already has a school of fish, but I didn't have time to take a picture because my foot was bitten by a fin. It's swollen from the diving program this morning.

The weather is beautiful, the sky is clear, it's perfect for taking pictures. I really want to take the dog to play in the water, but I can't. It's very difficult to dry it with a hair dryer.

If I hadn't been bitten, I would have definitely forgotten about the dog while diving.

Milo, the resort owner's dog, sleeps like this all the time. He only bathes in seawater.

The bar has a wide selection of drinks at affordable prices. As someone who doesn't drink, I couldn't resist.

Changed clothes, my boyfriend said I was short and kept looking at me.

Thank you to the Thai and foreign tourists who came to stay at the same time and came to say hello to me.

I brought my dog into the room because the air conditioner won't be turned on until 5 pm, so I came to take some pictures with my boyfriend.

The evening atmosphere is filled with various activities, and the water level is rising.

Take a picture to use for your own wedding at the end of this year.

As the sun sets in the evening, the Rhinoceros Island stands before you.

A restaurant with a stunning sea view, perfect for enjoying breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a wonderful atmosphere.

In terms of food, let me tell you, if you're a big eater, you have to come here. As I said, don't eat too many snacks because it will spoil your dinner. Everything here is a buffet.

The empty space next to it is because the food is not finished yet.

The staff will ask you:

" Anything else to add? "

"Have some more, brother."

"Why are you eating so little?"

" Would you like some crab, squid, or scallops?"

" We're not done yet, there's still dessert left. "

"Please eat a lot, otherwise the food will be wasted, which is not good."

He didn't touch the rice that the younger ones had prepared for him. He sent back the empty rice bowl. The younger ones said it was normal.

For the show, the Starf team, who will take us diving, will show off their fire twirling and other activities. Each day, the team will walk around the dining tables to tell us what's on offer.

The fan and the shorty sat comfortably on the balcony of Villa 5, while I went down to take pictures. After the show, I gave the girls a tip.

The last morning

The villas in the inner part will not be as tall as the villa you are staying in.

Enjoying the morning sun with a beautiful view before saying goodbye.

Tee is feeling down. He doesn't want to go home.

My favorite corner chair, where I spend most of my time.

The last meal was a seafood noodle soup with overflowing ingredients. On this trip, I was planning to stop by Mueang Chan to eat at Jeh Pen's noodle shop, but after eating seafood noodle soup every meal on this trip, I won't stop by anymore.

The team, both Thai and foreign staff, will always welcome and see off guests like this. They will walk down the stairs, hold the dog's leash, and play with the dog before leaving.

The silence of the last group of guests returning to shore, but not always like this, the fun will return when the new group of guests from the shore come to stay here. And the good service that is ready to help the guests will start when the boat comes to pick up the new group of guests. Thank you to all the staff here who came to play and greet me when I first came. The staff was surprised that I was big because normally only small dogs come here. This is a golden retriever, but the staff here welcomed me very well.

This trip was very tiring for me because my dog, Tia, is old and can't climb the villa very well. I had to carry her all the time. When we went to the beach, Tia would look at me and ask me to carry her across the shore. But even though I was tired, I was happy to see my dog running and playing in the sea, forgetting about her owner and her old age. It was worth it for me.

Note: If you want to bring our dog, we must also be considerate of other guests. When my dog poops, my girlfriend and I will pick it up and throw it away, or take it to a secluded place so as not to disturb other guests. If we can control our dog, we will have fun on this trip. For example, Tien will sleep soundly if she is exposed to air conditioning.

Thank you for watching my dog travel blog.

I've received a lot of inquiries about the weight limit. Some people called and were told by the staff that the maximum weight is 20 kg. I'm not sure about this, but I did inform the staff beforehand about the breed and size of my dog. They also asked if I could control my dog, and I replied that I could. I understand that the resort doesn't want guests to be disturbed, and I assure you that my dog will not cause any trouble. When boarding and disembarking the boat, I carried my dog myself and declined help from the staff because my dog is more comfortable with me. As for disturbing other guests, I can assure you that my dog is very attached to me. If he goes out of my sight, he will immediately look for me and stay close by. Therefore, he will not bother other guests unless they approach him and want to play. In that case, he will happily play with them.

For food, I brought my own and a towel for when the dog played in the water. I didn't bring a hairdryer because I forgot, but that was a good thing because if I had, the hair would have blown around. Every time we ate, I would put the dog in the room. When there were no guests eating or only a few tables, I would take the dog out for a walk and let it lie down near the bar seats. I would also bring a small bag with tissues and plastic bags in case the dog needed to go to the bathroom and couldn't make it in time.

If we take care of our dog ourselves, there is no problem. Because our dog is not cute for everyone. When we get back on the boat, some guests are afraid of our dog, so we have to apologize to them and try to prevent the dog from getting too close. This trip is tiring because my dog is old and can't walk up the stairs very well. I have to carry him all the time. It's tiring but I'm happy.
