Samudra Beach Chalet

Samudra beach chalet is cheap but this is reflected in the quality of the accommodation which is poor. We had a beachfront chalet which is in dire need of updating. The bed was firm and comfortable but the nylon sheet and one blanket to cover you was not great. The bathroom is a wet room that didn’t drain away & the sink leaks. We had a beautiful beachfront view with two plastic chairs but no where to dry towels etc. It has its own restaurant which was fine, it does not serve alcohol but we knew that in advance. A big negative for us was the lack of Wifi, we didn’t have any for the whole time we were there and there was no time scale for it to be repaired. Unfortunately there was little to no phone signal either. Although we appreciate there are times it is good to be away from everything, we needed WiFi to book ongoing travel. We ended up going on one of the jungle trails to another part of the island to get connected; the jungle trail we took involved a lot of climbing but it was fun and most people would manage it. The second main negative was the awful state of properties nearby which looked very run down and were full of rubbish; although we noted there was some work being done on a larger resort so it may well be due to it being the start of the season. So, if you want cheap basic accommodation away from it all then this is for you!

Quando leggete le recensioni e cercate indicazioni sulla pulizia (come di solito faccio io) e leggete che questo resort non è proprio pulito al 100% perché c'è della sabbia in camera o delle formiche, beh, prima di giudicare pensate questo: alcune camere hanno l' accesso diretto alla spiaggia quindi della sabbia portata direttamente da noi è possibile che ci sia. Le formiche? Se lasci dei biscotti o cibo in generale arrivano altrimenti... Non pervenute. Camera con bagno munita di A/C, balcone e due sedie. Spartana ma dignitosa. Personale gentile. Colazione a pagamento (prezzi economici)con buona scelta. Piccolo negozio accanto alla reception dove fare acquisti+ possibilità di prenotare le escursioni (tariffa più economica). Spiaggia grande. La sera ci sono i ristorantini che apparecchiano sulla spiaggia. Il Samudra accetta carte di credito (elemento da non sottovalutare)!
