We had a very positive experience at Mali Sunrise. They picked us up at the immigration arrival point on the main beach. The checkin was very quick and smooth. We were given the room I asked for on the 2nd floor. The room is very spacious with a big and comfortable king bed and a big sofa. They added a single bed for my daugther with a proper thick mattress. The bathroom is also big with a big shower and absolutely no bad smell. There is a TV, but we didn't use it, a mini fridge filled with water bottles. Plenty of space to put your stuff. The balcony is big with 2 chairs and a little table and a practical hanger. The pool is super nice, very cosy and esthetic. The water is quite warm. The garden is very well maintained. The bar/ restaurant at the beach is simple, but cosy and clean. They serve good quality food all day long till 730pm, so it's good for an early dinner, but if you want to eat later, you need to go to the 'walking street' which is at 10m' walking distance. In the morning they serve breakfast at the bar. You can order as much as you like. They have different options, the sandwiches and the muesli are super good. They also offer pancakes, fruit, fried rice, etc... We were very satisfied both with the quality and the quantity offered. They don't have a private beach, but they are at one end of the beautiful Sunrise beach, so it's a quiet corner with a limited amount of Thai boats in front. In front there is a tiny island, where you can snorkel
