Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Palm Leaf Resort enjoys a perfect location on the quieter end of Sairee Beach, making it a popular choice, especially for families, and just a short walk from shops and ATMs. Guests often appreciate the clean and spacious bungalows, some with beautiful sea views from the terrace which includes a daybed, perfect even when it rains. Snorkelling is excellent right in front of the resort, with shallow, sandy-bottomed waters, and the beach bar offers tasty food at reasonable prices; some guests, however, have mentioned that the rooms could use some updating.

advantageous locationscooter rentaleffective air conditioningeasy access
The resort location proved to be advantageous because it was set back slightly from the main area. I rented a scooter directly at the hotel. The room includes effective air conditioning. Access to the beach area was easy.
The restaurant closes quite early each day.
