Impeccably maintained property in the rainforest, with true attention to detail. Lots to do with watersport kit available, mountain bikes, scheduled activities for the kids (painting, cooking, nature walls etc) and adults too (walks, culinary experiences, cooking classes, yoga, circuits, spa etc). Rooms were well-appointed with a comfortable bed. Fantastic staff. Food was of great quality too. A great week.away, would have stayed longer, and will definitely be back.

Datai is a unique hotel. Mostly hidden in rainforest the villas are quiet and secluded and the service is excellent.Our beach villa had everything, enormous living area, seperate bedroom area, pool and beautiful gardens. Datai beach is just through the garden gate, safe swimming and at this time of year we were often the only ones in the water. Our "butler" Nazif did everything for us, presenting afternoon tea, organising dining arrangements, buggies and much more. It was hard to find a reason to leave our haven other than to eat. Big thank you Nazif. The 4 restaurants were all excellent offering a wide variety of cuisine and the happy, friendly staff were always keen to look after you. The Datai is up there as the overall, best hotel we have experienced in all our travels.
