Cinnamon Beach Villas

Nice little hotel on a hill side, all rooms have a sea view and a terrace, airco and a fan. The beach side pool and restaurant gave me an 80ties St Tropez vibe. The staff is very friendly and ready to help you out whenever they can be of assistance.

A little away from the bustle of central island, Cinnamon Beach Villa is a perfect place if you like to stay in a quiet place. We wanted a chilled vacation and this is exactly what we've got making our stay a lovely one; we didn't mind that the hotel is isolated, at least a twenty minute walk to the main road where there are restaurants and stores. The staff is very friendly but at times it was hard to communicate with them in English; our favorites was Mee, she was always smiling, eager to help, we absolutely loved her, from the day she greeted us until our last day at the resort. The view from the room is absolutely amazing; we booked the penthouse on the last floor and it was pure pleasure to wake up in the morning, see the sea but also hear the birds chirping.

We spent 12 days in a Superior Deluxe room at Cinnamon Hotel and absolutely enjoyed our time there. The room was spacious, clean, and free from any unpleasant odors. The air conditioning worked perfectly—silent and effective. The highlight was the million-dollar view from the balcony, which made our mornings and evenings unforgettable. The staff were amazing, especially the women at reception who always went above and beyond to help us arrange taxis or rent a bike. The hotel’s restaurant was another highlight, offering delicious food with the convenience of room delivery. The pool was lovely, clean, and well-maintained, providing a perfect spot to relax. The location is another advantage—quiet and peaceful since it’s not on the main road, yet only a 3–5 minute ride to Lamai. After our initial stay, we extended for two more days but had to move to a Deluxe room, where the experience wasn’t as good. The air conditioning was noisy and ineffective, the room had a slight odor, and it was noticeably smaller. Despite this, our overall experience was fantastic. If we return, we’ll definitely choose the Superior Deluxe again. Cinnamon Hotel is a great choice for those looking for comfort, excellent service, and a peaceful environment near Lamai.

This hotel is a hidden gem. A little bit of a walk (15 minutes) from the main area of Lamia (where shops like 7 Eleven, Pharmacy, Muay Thai gym etc are) but next time we will hire a motorbike (as we now know our way around) as roads are safe and people are very respectful and this would of made a difference for us. But, I would book here again in a heart beat. The place is just magical. We had a beach villa and it came with our own bath and outside shower. Beds were really comfortable, hard but that is expected in Thailand. 4 bottles of water a day, tea, coffee and infusions. Good small fridge that kept our sons insulin cool and small freezer incorporated for ice packs (for when we travelled from island to island to keep insulin cool). Clean linen and beds. Lovely smelling body wash and hair shampoo!! Drying rack for drying clothes. Absolutely gorgeous terraces/ outside area where you can enjoy the views and listen to the birds. Breakfasts were to die for (this was included in our stay and served from 8-10.30am and you have 8 different choices of breakfast to order) apart from croissants, toast, traditional pancakes, fruit, tea, coffee, ovaltine and fruit juices! Presentation, taste and service, always with a smile. They offer a happy our on drinks from 4-9pm. Buy one drink, get another free. Strawberry daiquiri was delicious. We had dinner at the on site restaurant the day we arrived from our long flight. We paid £60 (2,400 TBHs) for fresh Margarita pizza, lemon grass soup, fresh burger with crinkly chips & coleslaw, chicken satay with salad, x1 spring rolls, x1 chicken pad-thai, x1 pineapple milkshake, x1 chang beer, x2 coke zeros & x1 orange fanta. Not badly priced for quantity of food at the hotel compared to prices back at home, however on the more expensive side for Thailand prices, however the quality was fantastic and the convenience of eating at the resort was welcomed. The pool was fabulous and clean. Right next to the beach.

For me, this place was a hidden gem. Im at the age where Im inbetween needing a little something to do, but relax in the peace and quiet of a nice setting in the evening - it nailed it. Its right on the beachfront and only a 25 minute walk into the local town. The hotel itself is very clean and well maintained, and I thoroughly enjoyed having a daily breakfast right on the beachfront. The staff were excellent and helpful, and arranged quite easily the trips I wanted booked. The room was large and had character with traditional solid wood furniture and provided an excellent view of the bay, I was lucky enough to have a couple of small lizards and a preying Mantis come and sit with me on the balcony for a while - awesome !! The restaurant menu was a variety of Thai and international cuisine whilst also carrying a well stocked bar Loved this hotel, already considering coming back soon :-)
