SONG SAA PRIVATE ISLAND

A piece of paradise. Perfect place to connect with nature and relax. A beautiful beach with corals and lots of activities to do, outstanding sunsets, and a really diverse flora and fauna. We opted for the all-inclusive package, so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. The quality of the food and drinks was exceptional, and we enjoyed dinner each day in a different location. The best part, though, was definitely the staff—all so warm and friendly. From the moment you arrive on the island, it's clear that every detail has been carefully considered. On top of that, this hotel is behind a beautiful project for supporting the community and the marine environment. We hope to come back one day.

When they say private island it is because the hotel owns it. But you feel like YOU own it. Incredibly friendly and professional service in a beautiful boutique hotel with top class food. We loved the zen feeling of the place - if you want a big anonymous resort then this is not for you. We stayed in Ocean View villa which was completely private and not overlooked. Very eco aware hotel, with a Foundation attached. Interesting chat with the marine biologist there. Learned about local issues. Make sure you do the Bioluminscence swim. Just magical.

Five wonderful nights each of which started with a small scroll telling us what the night would entail, then cocktail with a delightful sea sunset view and a different meal experience and then our wonderful hostess Kunthea popping up to find out if there were any twists for the next day we wanted ( cannot thank you enough for the epic flambéed banana !) Rare to find luxury and charm combined so well with true privacy in our ocean view villa ( even the house keeping came early to give us the rest of the day to ourselves). Loved our nightly treasure boxes to come back to. The house reef was larger and more varied than we imagined and the equipment you borrow excellent. We changed that up with the main pool ( also had its secret nooks) and did our own nature walks to the attached island, where sitting on the large rocks by the shore together we watched diving birds and simply dreamt. We were blessed with wonderful sunshine and a variable breeze ( a couple of windier days). If I had the ability to thrash out a novel this would be the perfect place to do it and one which we plan to return to as we have never felt so calm and content. Thank you to the amazingly warm staff team with your genuine kindness and we could happily have stayed longer.

Everything was awesome on this small (24(?) villa resort- the staff are so friendly and accommodating, the food excellent and the villas beautiful! This was a great place to unwind after touring Vietnam and Siem Reap. We did the nighttime bioluminescence snorkeling and it far far exceeded our expectations! It was literally magical to simply move and create these sparkling fireworks!! One of the best experiences we’ve ever had! We wanted to scuba but two windy days made the visibility poor and we really appreciate the scuba lead encouraging us not to dive-it wouldn’t have been worth it; we are so happy he was honest and ethical!! Two nights with outstanding “destination dining”events-one curry and one for Chinese new year- a LOT of food; we shared “one portion” and didn’t come close to finishing! Spa massages were great, so much so we repeated the next day! Daily morning yoga was fantastic; we did it each morning- strongly recommend!!
