PARADISE Thai Island Hotel - CAPTAIN HOOK RESORT on Koh Kood Island, Thailand!

Hey everyone I hope you're having an amazing day it's mark Wiens I'm in Koh Kood Island which is in the eastern province of prat in Thailand. This entire island is it's spectacular the the natural scenery the beaches we are staying at Captain Hook Resort which is is one of the most impressive places that I've stayed the natural scenery. We have a mini pool villa which I will show you.But in this video I want to walk you through the hotel I'm gonna show you the
grounds, show you the water around us...This place is absolutely gorgeous and
I'm gonna give you a full tour right now but first let's quickly back up to how
you get here and I'll share with you how we got here from the boat when we first

arrived I really didn't know this but

you got to take a boat to get to the

resort Captain Hook resort and so we're

in the mangroves right now the boat is

she has just come to pick us up

[Music]

it's gorgeous the water is so clear too

[Music]

it was just a five minute boat ride

could get here but this place is tucked

away there's the own its own private

beach here and then the water inlet goes

down there and you get dropped off this

is kind of maybe the the restaurant area

check-in

oh what a awesomely cool place though

our room is up the hill a little ways I

think we have a we don't have an

oceanfront room but we have an ocean

view room there's a beach on this side

too can you do ah chai chai chai cup

[Music]

when it comes to nature and natural

beauty this is about as picturesque as

pristine as it gets the resort occupies

its entire Peninsula to Rocky Peninsula

it says it's a small Peninsula so they

have rooms on either side of the

peninsula but not only do you have

surrounding beaches but they also occupy

an inlet of water which goes into the

mangroves and so over on this side is a

beach which actually you have to write a

kayak to get to that beach or you have

to swim across the inlet of water and

then straight back here that's where the

water goes into the mangrove forest and

it's equally spectacular this is kind of

the communal area this is where the

boats land or the boats appear where the

boats dock where you get off the boat to

enter the resort this is also the

restaurant and the dining area where you

can sit where you can eat where you can

have a drink let's walk to the left-hand

side of the resort down through the

mangrove area first get a view of that

side then we'll go to the other side for

the for the Cape view of the ocean and

show you the swimming pool on that side

and then after that I'll show I'll give

you a full tour of our room so you walk

down this side you get to some villas

and then there's also some really really

cool bungalows that you can hang out in

this is kind of like a homemade beach

here because you could play in the sand

here and then you get to this wall which

here's where the the ocean well this is

this is where the ocean starts and where

the inlet begins and then it goes inland

here and here the mangrove forest and

here comes a boat which is one of the

how you access the resort

[Music]

there are some fantastic bungalows

wooden bungalows with thatched roofs

over the mangrove trees that you can

hang out in you can have a massage you

can just come here to chill out and

relax I love this wood floor and just

how cool is this place I mean you can

just sit here and relax to the max

you've got the ocean breeze but shaded

by the mangroves you can sit on the

beautiful wood you can jump in this

hammock whoa this is one of many many

ultra chill spots within this resort and

then when you're ready for a change of

seating you can come sit over here on

this ledge overlooking the water let's

continue

[Music]

we're getting a little bit of sunshine

but the sunshine has been off and on

today it's been drizzling then sunny

then drizzling that's okay with me

though this is where the wind starts to

pick up you might hear that in my

microphone but this is where you get to

the rockier section and where you get to

it's starting to get to the tip of the

peninsula the mini Peninsula here

there's a bar on this side and there's

some bar seating as well here and then

some places that just sit and relax

let's quickly move over here through the

sand there's a there's a swing over here

on the ocean too got to do a little bit

of rock hopping to get in here take off

my sandals and again this is another

amazing place just to enjoy the views to

relax there's a sueing here

[Applause]

this is the main communal swimming pool

there's a kid pool there and then the

main pool is kind of in an S shape and

it backs up to right over there which is

the the communal dining meal section and

also the swimming pool this is right on

the tip of the Cape right on the the end

of the peninsula here get onto the rocks

and feel the water or jump in the water

here if you really want to but do be

careful of the slippery rocks

oh hello Micah onion

Oh Micah oh hello Micah I was on my way

back to the room but Ying and Micah have

woken up from there and happened there

now chillin on this couch okay time out

we're gonna chill out and hang out for a

little while you walk through this area

this is the main lobby area the area

where you check-in and our room is up

these stairs and kind of across the

ridge it's always good to get a little

exercise so every time we come up to our

room got a hike up this flight of stairs

and we have a view of the other side and

welcome to mini pool Ville and number

five okay open this up this is our

private little villa and you immediately

enter into a lush garden scenery they've

done a great job with the landscape the

trees the vines going up there's a mini

swimming pool here it's kind of like

jacuzzi style it's like a dipping pool

but it overlooks the beautiful ocean and

the sea on this side it's kind of it's

kind of rocky you can hear the the waves

lapping against the rocks there's a

beach over on that side but this is just

this is just raw nature and it's it's

absolutely gorgeous the clear turquoise

water there are some Beach lounge chairs

here and then this is the room this is

the bungalow behind us it's almost kind

of like log cabin style and there's an

outdoor shower on this side now I'm

gonna give you a full tour of our room

welcome to our villa step inside the

sliding glass wooden doors and right by

the door you have this nice sofa bed

relaxation and this has been the office

here this is where you can sit and hang

out and work on your laptop you could

still see the sea view and the swimming

pool outside and this is just

comfortable and when you get tired of

sitting of course you can kick back and

relax okay on this side of the room

we've stashed some of our stuff those

are our bags Micah's diapers are down

there and they have coffee and water

station there too the one's slightly

strange thing is that there's no fridge

in this room but for the Thai style room

that we are Thai style villa that we

this is what it means it's a wooden

platform with two double beds and the

mattress is sitting up here oh oh yeah I

think it's fantastic

the beds are comfortable and I mean

having it on this platform it kind of

makes it nice and cozy kind of like

you're in an attic or a wood cabin it's

fancy it's a high-end resort but at the

same time it's it's it's not like overly

elegant it has a rustic charm to it

which I really like alright and the last

part to show you is the bathroom which

is over on this side again it sort of

has that attic like appearance to it

with the slanted roof in the back is the

shower got a nice no complaints about

the shower the shower is fantastic and

then coming over here this is the toilet

well that's pretty refreshing that's

nice and cold it's not very deep I'm

sitting up right now but it's just it's

fantastic overlooking the ocean kind of

if you're down here it's an infinity

edge because then you can see the ocean

with the room in the background oh and

this is the this is the place to chill

so we're just gonna hang out here for

the rest of the afternoon and then

tomorrow we have breakfast which is

included in our room she'll show you

breakfast

good morning we had an amazing sleep and

now we're here it's a little before

breakfast open so it's great and we're

ready for breakfast unfortunately that

is instant coffee so not the best but I

do have real coffee back in the room

which I will drink right after breakfast

yes they have the full egg omelette

station they have the quite chop station

which are noodle rolls in with pork

belly and seafood and then they have the

whole buffet section here I'll begin

with the main course got a few things

got some some of that pineapple fried

rice there's some squid there's some

shrimp and then all this one is fried

with salted fish as well and then I'll

get some that fried rice on there

yeah and there's nothing better than

waking up to Chile's yeah food here is

really good and I told her to mix

everything in here including some some

chili flakes a clear chicken soup game

dude with some Chinese celery in it next

up for the much healthier plate of food

the vegetables the the pineapple the

watermelon and they've cut the

watermelon so it has a little bit of the

rind on it the shell so that you can

just use that as a handle

[Music]

breakfast was excellent I'm now gonna

jump in the kayak and go over to the

beach it's kind of challenging to vlog

and hold the camera and paddle a kayak

at the same time the water is so clear

it's pretty calm the waves are just

laughing

but really it's a private beach kind of

just like sand embankment in between the

ocean and the river the Kallang the

mangroves and then the hotel sits on

that little Peninsula on the rocks over

there oh my god

[Applause]

[Music]

okay now that's a good cup of coffee and

that completes this review of Captain

Hook resort we spent two nights here and

we thoroughly enjoyed our stay what I

liked really what I liked is that it

really focuses on the natural beauty the

beach is gorgeous the scenery is

gorgeous the jungle is gorgeous and

they've done a good way out of building

the hotel into the nature into the

peninsula a couple of quick things I

wish they would have had a fridge in the

room and also the internet here it's

pretty often on Internet's not not very

good I'll have some info in the

description box so you can check that

out but we paid exactly six thousand

four hundred baht per night that's two

hundred and four dollars and forty eight

cents per night so it's it's not a cheap

place at all but I mean for this I think

I think it provides very good value for

what you get here this is a really

exclusive private beach kind of resort

I'm with a swimming pool and the private

room I think I think the value is is

very good that's it for this review of

Captain Hook resort I hope you enjoyed
