Ko Phangan - Rin Beach Resort - Any feedback? Can't find any reviews online

Hi folks,
We've booked into the Rin Beach Resort on Ko Phangan for Christmas / New Years. We were attracted by agoda.com prices (considering it's peak season)

Now we did a little research and decided to just book it, as we've been putting it off for long enough, however, I can't seem to find any reviews on the place.

I wonder if anyone can point me in the direction of any reliable reviews (it comes with free cancellation policy) or somewhere that I can get more info/pictures of the hotel/resort?

This is their website: http://www.rinbeachresort.com/index.htm

Many thanks

You might also check some of the hostel sites like:

www.hostelbookers.com www.hostelworld.com or maybe post the question on www.travelfish.org

Maybe the visitors are all too stoned to write reviews after the FMP..

Turns out i'd already come accross the first 2 links - not much info there

Unfortunately no info either on the other 3 links. This is more than weird!

Thanks a lot, I guess it gives some confidence that at least the place exists!

It is so strange there are no reviews online

Just for anyone who might find themselves in the same situation as me.....

I e-mailed Agoda (who I booked through) and they provided me with an alternative e-mail address to Rin Beach Resort. Within minutes I had a response confirming my booking and what room i'm booked into.

Relief!

Hi alt123. I am going to be at this hotel on new years eve as well for a week. May I have the hotel email agoda has sent you as the resort reception is not answering my emails.
I hope to meet up there!
Have a nice trip
