Veranda Natural Resort

I again brought a large group of women to Veranda. There was indeed a disappointing miscommunication on bedding (this can happen anywhere when sending emails in other countries) but Manout and staff were swift to rectify with a different bed and bedding to assure comfort. Before this they even offered a room upgrade which was generous though not taken up. I also want to be clear that the staff and especially Manouts English in person was flawless. I’ve never seen a harder worker! Maybe more staff needed so he gets a break more often. The infinity pool and Seaview balconies offered again the most beautiful sunset views. Yes the trees around have grown, but it is a jungle and it is named veranda natural resort. Myself and most of my group loved the rustic charm and the monkey visitors to our balcony in the morning. Showering outdoors on the veranda with the geckos looking on was a novelty and refreshing! One of my group said she’d just stay there forever! Again the staff easily arranged tuk tuks as needed at a moments notice. The breakfast buffet was a hit with my group - especially the creme brûlée. What a treat! The beds are harder as many are in SE Asia, but if that’s a problem for you, the staff can put additional padding on the mattress as they did for me and I slept like a baby then. If rustic charm and stairs aren’t your thing, then go somewhere brand new. There are plenty of places like that with no character. But I was made to feel very at home at veranda and it holds a special place in my heart.
