RAMELLA 2008-03-21 until 2008-03-28	Ayara Hilltops (former Treetops Arasia), Surin Beach all perfect very confortable !!!
Kerrie Morris 2008-02-28 until 2008-03-06	Ayara Hilltops, Surin Beach Lovely suites, very big and luxurious. Attentive, efficient and friendly staff. Could not fault them in any way. The big let down for this resort is the noisy road that runs directly in front of it. We paid for a Jamjuree Suite which was lovely however we were situated lower down the hill than some of the guests we spoke with that stayed in the cheaper Benjamart Suite. The view from our suite was nice but I expected the higher the price the higher up the hill and the better the view. Our view was slightly impeaded by power lines and poles that run parallel to the road and it was also a bit noisy out on the terrace. If I stayed at this resort again I would request a suite further up the hill. Each individual building (bungalow) contains two private suites each with their own access, one on the top and one on the bottom. Ours was on the bottom (maybe all Jamjuree suites are because of the garden and water feature - not sure) but it tended to be a little dark and most of the terrace, including the cold water whirlpool bath were undercover. I would request a suite up top to take advantage of the extra light and sunshine to warm the whirlpool bath a little. Having said all this, the resort and the suites are lovely. All the guests we spoke to thought the resort was lovely and Surin beach is a truely beautiful spot.	The original booking offer Stay 7 pay 5 was initially rejected as I was advised by Sawadee that it wasn t available for the room type requested. Once I emailed a copy of the website offer to Sawadee staff, they rectified the issue however the offer was then pulled from the website soon after. Everything was fairly smooth from then on.
Irina Matsukevich 2007-12-06 until 2007-12-10	Ayara Hilltops, Surin Beach The rooms are spacious and comfortable, nicely decorated, staff is accommodating. However, the hotel overlooks a road, which can be quite noisy at times. The greatest drawback is the beach equipment: the umbrellas and deck chairs are awful.	Excellent
Hamish Brown 2007-08-04 until 2007-08-11	Treetops Arasia, Surin Beach This was our second time to Treetops and the friendly and familiar faces were warm in their greetings. Service was always with a smile. The rooms are spacious, clean and elegantly designed with the outdoor jacuzzi an extra treat. We have been to Phuket many times and appreciate the Surin location as it is away from the rush of Patong and serene in the tranquility of nature. The views are spectacular and we will be back again for sure.	great - no problems
Brad Lenane 2007-05-24 until 2007-05-27	Treetops Arasia, Surin Beach TreeTops was a great property for getting away from it all and just relaxing. The views from the villas and private pools were stunning, the staff exceedingly polite,the Spa therapuetic, and the food was delicious (loved the different softshell crab dishes and the breakfast buffet). Would definitely return...and will someday.	Efficient but could provide a better way to update record and make changesconfirm transport.
Andrew Tang 2006-07-14 until 2006-07-16	Treetops Arasia, Surin Beach This is a resort couple should consider when planning to have a romantic getaway in Phuket. The room is spanking new and neat. The outdoor jacuzzi is a plus with personal sundeck for 2. The breakfast served is fantastic and the staff are friendly and professional. I personally stayed at the Benjamart Suite but will return to try out the higher ends suites soon!	Fantastic! Flawless operation. Keep up the good work!
Yile Gao 2005-11-28 until 2005-12-01	Treetops Arasia, Surin Beach A wonderful boutique hotel - small, quiet but a great place to relax with your loved one. Fabulous continental breakfast and a great scenary overlooking the Surin Bay.	Reliable.
Mr.Andrew Bok 2005-08-30 until 2005-09-02	Treetops Arasia, Surin Beach The view from our Benjamart villa was magnificent! Very private because the resort only has 48 villas and you get one all to yourself. Located at Surin beach, it was not the most convenient but that served as a great opportunity to enjoy the resort and relax to the sounds of splashing waves. We rented a jeep for better mobility around the island though. A highlight of the villa was its outdoor jacuzzi which offers a great view of the sea. Resort was absolutely clean and new. Staff at the resort was also extremely helpful and courteous! A truly wonderful experience!	Simple to use. Rates offered very competitive.
