The Sarojin

This is our second visit to this most spectacular hotel with the most amazing location. We first visited in December 2024 as part of a tour of Thailand. This visit we stayed 6 nights at the end of a tour including, Vietnam and Malaysia. On arrival we were greeted by the lovely Aoi who checked us in and showed us to our room. The room was as beautiful as we remembered and we settled into our chill out of our trip. After 2 nights we were upgraded to a room with its own private pool, what a result it was amazing. These rooms are definitely worth booking if you can. Breakfast at the Sarojin is very unique, they serve from 6.30 until 6pm so you never feel rushed or under pressure to get there before say 10.30 (which is when most hotels finish breakfast) the food offerings are amazing a full menu with definitely something for everyone. We ate at the hotel most nights from the fine dining Thai food at the Edge to Mediterranean options in Ficus. All food was amazing and the waiting on staff so friendly, happy and professional. The hotel arranged transport for us when we wanted to leave the hotel. Aoi arranged for a taxi to take us to the turtle sanctuary and wait for us which just fantastic. It was my birthday during our visit and the staff sang happy birthday at breakfast and the chef had made a selection of cakes with happy birthday pipped on the plate. The housekeeper had written happy birthday with flowers on the bed……. Such a special memory for me. We love the Sarojin and will definitely return in the future. Thank you to all the staff from the gardeners, housekeeping staff, waiting staff, chefs and reception staff, you are amazing and a true credit to this wonderful hotel. Our special mention must go to Aoi who was so helpful to us when I was poorly. She is a superstar and represents everything the Sarojin aims to be, thank you 🙏

We stayed at The Sarojin and we can honestly say: it was beyond all expectations. A truly magical place, cared for in every detail, where from the moment you arrive you feel something rare: peace, serenity, and a beautiful sense of calm. It really is a fairytale destination. A huge thank you to everyone on the team: kind, smiling, always attentive—present but never intrusive. They make you feel genuinely welcomed, as if every guest is special. Simply spectacular. Unforgettable moments: • Waterfall dinner: an experience you’ll never forget. Incredible atmosphere, impeccable service, and outstanding food quality. Romantic, unique, and absolutely perfect. • Similan Islands trip: excellent organization—everything smooth, well planned, and relaxing. The sea and colors are unreal, a day straight out of a postcard. • New Year’s Eve dinner: magnificent. Elegant, top-quality, a wonderful vibe, and flawless organization. A truly special New Year’s celebration. The resort is a true oasis: stunning rooms, total comfort, perfect cleanliness, and an atmosphere that lets you truly switch off. It’s one of those places that stays with you. We will definitely return. Thank you, The Sarojin—you gave us a truly wonderful holiday, better than we could have ever imagined.

We stayed for almost 2 weeks for the second time at the Sarojin. Before we arrived we were a bit worried that our expectations won’t be met as they were so high due to our first time here 3 years ago. But they were totally fulfilled. The resort, service and everything else was as beautiful and luxurious as we remembered! The staff is so attentive, nice and well trained. They always stay for a little chat and seem to really enjoy the work they do. After the second day almost everyone of the staff remembered our room number already and was aware of for example our food preferences. The grounds are amazing. The food is very good and there is a big variety to choose from due to the two restaurants. They also offered three different food events in the evening with live music and dance during our stay. It was really nice! The room is very spacious, clean and a very nice treat is, that a second room service in the evening prepares the room for night time. We truly enjoyed our time here as much as the first time and are very happy, that we came back and it won’t be our last stay here! Thank you so much to the whole team!

We stayed at the Sarojin for five nights in December. We were upgraded to a suite which was amazing. The staff were friendly and very efficient. We have been lucky enough to stay in some beautiful hotels and in terms of comfort and service this hotel is in our top three. I cannot praise it enough and would return in an instant.

23-Nov-25 to 15-Dec-25 JAN & IAN WATSON - room 704 This was our second visit to The Sarojin - we were fortunate to stay here for 6 nights on the last leg of our Asian tour in March/April this year and we just had to come back, but this time for 3 weeks! If you're looking for small, friendly, boutique-style hotel with a personal 5* service, then you'd be hard-pushed to find anything better... With high standards throughout, this pristine hotel with beautifully manicured gardens and comprising of only 56 luxurious guest 'residences', is a perfect recipe for what paradise is all about. But what makes this resort special, is the staff - whether it be at breakfast or on your way to the beach, no matter who you encounter - your server or gardener, they never fail to smile, say hello Thai-style and engage with you. Being in the catering industry for a number of years throughout my career, I recognise the importance of attention to detail both in quality of food and service and The Sarojin doesn't disappoint. For me, the mark of excellence is not only what they do right, but how they deal with things when they go wrong - turning a negative experience into a positive one. This was demonstrated when I was unfortunate to have encountered a single bout of food poisoning from a bowl of lobster bisque at the start of our second week. However, given their high standards of food hygiene and the fact that others had chosen the same dish on the same evening who didn't encounter food poisoning, it was more likely a case of a single infected lobster. Once I'd informed management, they couldn't do enough for me and immediately leapt into action to determine the cause and a full clean-down of the kitchen area. Kade (Operations Manager) visited me in our room together with Gogh (Head Chef) and Aoi (FOH Supervisor), armed with a bouquet of freshly picked flowers from the garden and a letter of apology. To cut a long story short, the team were amazing and we were both extremely impressed with their response to what ordinarily could have ruined our whole holiday experience had they of handled it differently. The Sarojin offer a breakfast service until 6pm daily (in The Ficus) with plenty on offer to appease all dietary yearnings. The breakfast service staff are equally amazing and I would be negligent if I didn't mention those who served us every morning - O, Kwan, Ma Mieuw, Noo Nah, Sak, Wuth - thank you so much for your amazing service and smiles! The Ficus restaurant - set beside the central pond and in the stunning backdrop of an ancient Ficus tree - offers a wonderful array of foods for the evening, most of which you can enjoy in your residence should you so choose. The Ficus restaurant manager, Mon, was amazing as usual and she made every effort to ensure our expectations were not only met, but surpassed - Mon, you're a star! The Edge restaurant, located on the beach has a lovey cocktail and lunchtime menu from which you can choose while sunning yourself, and evenings present you with a wonderful array of Thai foods - we both loved the Fettucine Prawns and the Thai curries are to die for! Thank you to the Edge restaurant manager, Aoi (pronounced Oi) who was lovely as ever. Oh, and by the way, you must try the Sarogin cocktail! The beach, whilst somewhat small, is facilitated by the amazing beach boys crew, namely, San, Fluke & Peak who ensure your beach days are serviced to the max and who are on hand to move your bed and take your food and drink orders. Btw - if you want full sun (from 11am) onwards, then choose a bed nearest the sea line. We highly recommend the Michelin evening in the Ficus and the Thai BBQs at The Edge - there's something to do culinary-wise, every week - look out for the information sheet at breakfast for all upcoming culinary events which you will need to book in advance. The hotel also offers a private dining service which can be enjoyed at several locations around the property - we had ours on the beach and whilst expensive (8400 Thai Baht), you do get your on private chef that cooks your food choices right next to you and your own private server and the food doesn't disappoint! All-in-all, it was a fantastic holiday with a home-from-home appeal and a highly personal service by staff who get to know you by name. Thank you again to the team at The Sarojin for a truly memorable holiday and we both look forward to seeing you again next year.
