The group hotel is 1 mile from the boat and the full details are below. It has good reviews, is safe and reasonably priced. We have assumed single rooms for everyone who have not made their own reservations. I will need to release rooms not being used so please let us know if you wish one of these rooms and for how many days. (We have each group booked for up to 4 days prior with extra nites on the night before since many may only want 1 night). We also have some rooms booked for 1 nite upon return from each trip before flying out. Let me know if you need extra days.
We have worked out an airport transfer deal to pay in USD vs Thailand Baht and transfers are between $25 and $36 each way depending on the number of people and when you arrive.
