Pullman Arcadia
First Impression
I think this is the prettiest hotel I’ve been so far. Not that it looks grand but more on how minimalist yet classy the resort looks like. The thing I like best is that they don’t crowd the place with ornaments and grand furniture's so you don’t miss the fact that everywhere you look is just nature at its finest. It’s like the trees, beach, skyline, and the huge rocks are all within your reach. Perfect picture of an elegant resort that showcase the spectacular beauty of nature. The feeling can be compared to that of love at first sight.

Check-In | Luxury Deluxe Room with Garden view
We requested for early check in and everything was set in 10 minutes. I must say, everyone looks like they love what they're doing! They serve you with a genuine smile while being quick and efficient.

The room didn’t disappoint. Very minimalist but polish. I’m actually considering using this same hue on future interior design concepts for our Condo. Room is not big but just about right. I love the accents and the unconventional lay out of the place.

Hotel Dining | Elements Restaurant
Good food, nice interiors and fantastic view specially if you seat in the balcony. Price is on the upside but since I’m an Advantage Plus member, I get 50% discount. With this quality of food, I'm definitely getting the value I paid for.

Naithon Beach
Although the sun is painfully hot, the beauty of the ocean is just too tempting to resist. So despite our worry that we’ll get the unwanted tan (being Asian and all), we brave our way through the beach equipped with Sun block.
It was even more beautiful up close, fine sand, clear and very refreshing water.  Perfect for the very sunny weather. Only thing that didn’t really live to my expectations was the lack of beach chairs to relax. But upon looking at the stretch of the beach, I notice that the nearby resorts didn’t have them as well so I’m suspecting it was a rule of some sort, which is actually good because it remains a public property for every one to enjoy. Plus,  the rawness of the beach is well preserved.

Pool
The pool is more pretty than it is functional. View is spectacular when photographed but it can get a bit crowded. I find it too small for a main pool, but there are actually several pools on the resort to choose from if you want lesser people. So overall, I think everyone's happy.

The Gym looks very modern. Well equipped for all types of types of guest, may it be Yoga, endurance or strength training, you'll find an equipment that suits you. Located on top most part of the hotel so expect a magnificent view.
The Kids Club offer plenty of toys and recreational activities for kids and pre-teens alike. But what I like most is their staff, specifically 'Yang'. You can see she is definitely hired for this job, speaks very good English and really likes playing and teaching kids.

The the only disappointing part of our stay was our dinner at Elements Restaurant. It took almost an hour before our food was served. The Tom Yum was not the right spicy level and the Papaya Salad didn’t taste fresh. The only consolation was the  fish, delicious with the right crispiness. We also felt that the staff was sincerely apologetic and did try to assist us until we're satisfied.

So what more can I say, I fell in love with this place and I can’t stop myself from talking about it ever since. This is by far, the best hotel I’ve been that satisfies my lust for natural and artificial beauty. The exemplary service they provide just tops everything with a delightful memorable experience.
