ホテルの桟橋でボートを降りるとバギーがお出迎え。そのまま、水上コテージまで。チェックインはお部屋で。
When we got off the boat from the seaplane at their pier, a buggy picked us up and took us straight to our on-the-water villa and we did the check in there.
1人に1台自転車つき。ホテルの敷地が広いので、移動は自転車かバギー。
They provide each guest a bicycle (with their initials on). The hotel site is very large, you need to use either the bicycle or ask for a buggy.
バスルームも広々。使いませんでしたが、バスタブは2人向かい合わせに座っても余裕がありそうな長さでした。シャワールームも室内と室外に1つずつ。
The bathroom was nice and large, the bath tub was as long as 2 people can lie facing with each other. There was also a outdoor shower as well as indoor shower.
写真にはないのですが、デッキには螺旋階段があって2階にもデイベッドがありました。到着したのは4時半ごろなので、暗めの写真になっています。この日は雲の切れ間から時々太陽が覗く感じでした。コテージはせっかくサンセットコテージにしましたが、滞在中、夕方は雲が多くなってあまり綺麗な夕焼けは見られませんでした。それでも十分素晴らしい景色。
I didn’t take a photo but the deck has a spiral staircase that leads you to another day bed area upstairs like an attic. You can see the stairs on this photo. When we arrived it was already around 4.30pm so the photos are a little dark. The day we arrived, it was overcast but now and again the sun would come out then the sea looked so blue. Although we chose one of the “sunset water villas”, unfortunately ,while we were there, it became cloudy late in the day so we didn’t have much of a sunset. The view was still beautiful, though.
ヤングココナッツやフルーツバスケットやウェルカム・シャンパンも。
Youg coconuts, a fruit basket and welcome Champagne from the hotel.
居心地の良いコテージでした。
The villa was very comfortable.
このホテルではホテル内のチャットアプリをダウンロードして、ホテルのスタッフとの連絡は主にチャットでするようになっていました。レストランの予約やバギーでピックアップして欲しい時など電話より気軽に出来て、とても便利でした。他のホテルでも是非使っていただきたいです。
In this hotel, they let us download their own Chat Application onto our phones and we communicated thorough this app for booking restaurants or asking for a pick up by a buggy. It was much nicer way of communicating than telephone and it was very convenient as you could use it out on the deck, or by the pool, etc. I wish all the hotels did this.
