I have stayed at resorts in over 40 countries and I have to say this is one of the most beautiful locations I have ever seen. It isn't Patong, exactly the opposite with refined elegance and a quiet environment. The beach is usually almost deserted and pool areas not crowded. The restaurants are first class and priced high for Thailand but not by international standards. Perfect for a honeymoon but be prepared to drive quite some distance if looking for trips out to Phi Phi or evening entertainment.
