We loved Dor-Shada Resort. It is south of Pattaya where the nicer beaches and cleaner water begins. The grounds are gorgeous. Great facility for kids with a magnificent pool and playground areas for bigger kids and toddler both. The beach is clean and pleasant. The food is good and reasonably priced. The breakfast buffet is wonderful. Lots of choices. Can't believe others have dissed it. Goodness. The rooms are a very nice size and, although some of the furniture might be a little dated, it is all comfortable and functional. Lots of nice things like in-room coffee & tea, refrigerator, etc. But the staff and management are the real treasure. They are pleasant, helpful and professional in every respect. They remain available but are never hoverig right over you. The staff training is excellent and very apparently a focus of the resort. Everyone was so kind, helpful and accommodating. I had a minor medical issue there that I considered to be more an act of God than an issue with the hotel, but they accepted responsibility and went way beyond what was necessary to make sure I was taken care of and appreciated as a guest. I cannot say enough good things about the management and staff at Dor-Shada. It is an excellent place for families. You would never know you were next door to Pattaya. Keep up the good work, guys. We appreciated your client-centered orientation and will visit again. You run a great place!
