Left after the first night. Maintenance has been totally neglected, place was rundown. Breakfast was really bad, coffee tastes like water, no juice nor water offered, no bread. No electricity for a large part of the day. This place should be taken out of the offer!

The staff were great and very helpful. The common area, restaurant and surroundings are nice, and it's a great beach location, a little further away from the Coral Bay beach which is very crowded on weekends. But the chalet is a bit run down, the sheets, curtains, and blanket were obviously very old and worn. Cupboards were dusty too. Don't expect superb amenities on an island getaway but clean and bright-looking would go a long way towards adding value for guests, especially since resort rates are charged.

Insalubre

El peor cuchitril que hemos estado en todo el viaje. Asqueroso, lleno de pelos y suciedad incrustada que ya no se podía sacar. Condiciones insalubres y no nos pudimos cambiar porque no nos querían devolver el dinero. El desayuno era de 7 a 10 i si te presentabas a las 8 ya no había nada. No tengas miedo a ir sin reservar a Kapas! Es el único lugar que ofrece reserva des de un portal y por eso los viajeros que dudamos nos tiramos a la piscina ( por cierto, en la foto dicen que tienen pero resulta que no operativa)!

We didn’t expect much, based on the reviews. It was a nice resort at one time, but it is very run down. Our first night was terrible. The bathroom ceiling leaked in multiple places and was not nice. The bedding was not very clean and there was black mould in multiple locations. The next day we complained and they were very nice about giving us a different room. It was much better, but still in need of care. We did extend our stay one more night and we are grateful that, given our frustrations, they gave us a good deal.

Ask about times electricity is turned on.

Resorts are powered by generators in the island (no powerlines). KIR did not advertise that there TURN OFF the electricity/generators between 8am-12pm and between 4pm-7pm (total 7 hours) daily!!! Poor insulation meant the rooms are HOT by 8.30am with the aircon or fan not working (note aircon rooms do not have fans, rooms have one or the other. Considering check-out is by 12pm, you could spend the rest of the 4-hour-morning struggling to relax or complaining (e.g. we did not get the aircon comfort we specifically paid for). The electricity is turned on again after 12pm checkout, but since check in is at 3pm, it meant guests only get to use the electricity for a maximum of 1 hour before 4pm power cut! The other resorts kept their power running or only turned it off for 1-2 hours, at a time, or once daily. Other than this MAJOR issue that feels like false advertising, we can accept that the KIR is old and rustic, looking like it's rundown and needs some care/maintenance kind of charm. The entrance to the jungle trekking is behind it (convenient), and it is the only accommodation in the whole island with a small pool. A simple European/American style breakfast was served as part of a package. Kapas Island Resort's location was quieter than the main party area where Coral Beach, Ombak and KBC are located.

El peor hotel en el que he estado nunca. Hotel depreciado y no mantenido ni reformado. Toallas de hace 20 años, no hacen limpieza de nada, ni baño, ni camas.... no iba la cisterna, vinieron y quitaron la tapa para que pulsasemos directamente desde el interior...en fin...nunca imaginé que fuese a estar tan mal.

Terrible conditions and room status

We booked a double “superior” room and when you see it from outside seems lovely. Everything change completely when you open the door. Quite dirty, really hot, all windows opened, so plenty of insects coming... A complete nightmare. About breakfast, no words, awful. We were traveling as backpack, and have been before in bad places, but never like this. Absolutely I will never recommend.

Nice clean and pleasant room for a relaxed holiday

The rooms were comfortable and clean. Good for a relaxed holiday. Power supply was from the National Electricity Board using a solar hybrid generator for the island. The power comes on at certain hours in the afternoon and at night. The power came on as scheduled. However, the hotel / resort could not arrange for boat rides to the best snorkeling areas and kayaking facilities were lacking. I had to arrange these with a neighboring hotel. My trip to Kapas island was to enjoy these activities. The arrangement for the boat trip back was also disappointing. The hotel made arrangements with a separate boat company. Somehow the message didn't get through and the staff could only say that they have informed and couldn't do anything. I was told to wait another hour or two for the next boat. I had to call the boat company myself to get a good response.

Kleine Hütte in Strandnähe

Unser Zimmer war sehr nah am Wasser. Das serviceteam war freundlich und bemüht, aber leider konnten viele kaum englisch sprechen! Die kleine Hütte die wir gebucht hatten war zwar auf den ersten Blick sauber, aber das Bad war in einem schlimmen Zustand... Der Ablauf des Waschbeckens lief einfach auf den Boden und auch die Dusche war nicht abgetrennt von WC und Waschbecken! Beim Frühstück waren wir ebenfalls enttäuscht da es nur Reis und Nudeln gab, hier sind die Geschmäcker natürlich unterschiedlich!! Noch einmal würden wir das Ressort auf keinen Fall buchen, die Insel ist aber einen Trip wert!!

Warning: the website was ambiguous. I thought I was booking for 2 adults and 2 children - i.e.2+3 which I understood as being 2 rooms. What we got 1 double + 1 single bed in one room. On the 2nd night we got a mattress, but the floor was so dirty I didn't want to sleep on it.

Pone que lo van a renovar, pero a julio 2017 no han empezado ni hay indicios. Hemos chequeado otros bungalows y hablado con otros huéspedes y las condiciones pesimas del alojamiento eran las mismas. Lo unico positivo es que nos dejaron hacer el check-out late (3h mas tarde) sin ningún cargo adicional

Pros: - it's close to the beach and offers a better stay than a tent - has air-con and electrical power - staff are friendly - food (both breakfast and restaurant) is very good - the chalet gives you privacy - own bathroom Cons: - sink not working - shower only has cold water, water pressure is quite low - room didn't look clean - there were dust bunnies all over the place, spider nets (and spiders) - bed was very bouncy and the sheets didn't look clean (consider bringing your own if you have a bit of room in luggage) - no air-con remote - you can either turn it on (max) or off - the walls were dirty and you could see through in the corners
