Goodtime - Guestbook Excerpts

If you are looking for the "conveniences" of modern mass tourism, you will feel quite displaced here. The island is a paradise for those who want to leave the daily routine behind and want to enjoy natural beaches and landscapes. The roads are not always paved, fortunately resulting in less traffic.(Anette and Franz-Josef)

Finally a resort thatดs fitting well into the landscape and in which guests live in stylish houses, typical for the country. Houses and surrounding gardens have been designed with sure instinct and a feeling of importance for the details. Beside that, the restaurant s quality contrasted with competitors by offering local and typical dishes, so that it was well frequented by other island guests.(Anne)

Villas
All houses of the Goodtime-Resort are built in thai style and form a beautiful ensemble. When the resort was planned, importance has been attached to privacy as well as to classy interior furnishings. Usage of natural materials has also been emphasized. Furniture and decorations have been hand-picked on thai antique markets and then been restored according to old suggestions and demands. All villas are made up of a ground floor built with thai bricks providing a spaciously laid out terrace, a big livingroom/bedroom and a bath room. All floors in this level are paved with terracotta tiles. Over a wooden staircase you get to the first floor which is completely made of Teak and has the typical Thai roof.
