I really do not want to review this resort as I want to keep it a secret but it just does not seem right considering how amazing it is. Even before we arrived, the customer service was outstanding. Pam replied promptly to all our queries, organised transfers from Phuket airport to the resort and then even transfers to our next resort which was provided by a local fisherman. The resort itself is very much off the beaten track, it takes about 3.5 hours to get there from Phuket airport (car, boat, jeep) but that is the charm of it, it is very quiet and secluded, located in a spectacular setting. On the whole side of the island there are merely a few resorts and in my opinion Moken is the best one. It is truly Thailand as it once was. Granted there is no air conditioning, only one mains plug (they just got the mains electricity this year) but if there ever was a place made for R&R, then this is it. We stayed seven nights in a bungalow called Hornbill and it was magical. Open style Thai bungalow with great terrace, nice sea view, shaded and on the edge of the resort. The food was amazing, kitchen staff were amazing in accommodating our appetite for spicy food, the waiting staff were genuine, friendly, polite and provided great service. There are a few other resorts along the beach to go to and have lunch/drink, but it is all very relaxed and low key. If I were to be very picky, the only two things I would point out would be that the bed was very hard (but they normally are in Thailand) and the fact that the fans are very far from the bed, so at night it was quite hot as the breeze hardly reaches the bed. But those two things were such a minor issues that I only mention them as there is nothing else to point out. Prices in the restaurant are very affordable and considering how remote you are, quite low. On leaving the resort I left my water bottle behind and Pam organised for it to be delivered to the next resort where we were staying. If that does not show commitment to customer service than I really don't know what does. Thank you Pam and all your staff for making our stay so enjoyable.
