We found Deevana Patong Beach Resort in Groupon but booked in their website. Why? because it's cheaper. One thing I learned about booking hotels or resorts is you should look at different sites if you are not in a hurry because the first site which you think cost less is not. Just because it has 30% or 50% off doesn't mean that it's the cheapest or best price you can get. There are a lot of website to search and a lot of offers, it's up to you if you think that the site is reliable or not.
Before booking Deevana we read reviews about it from blogs and trip advisor to get some insights. They both have positive and negative depending on people's experiences. If you were to read it and you are uncertain then go with your gut. I am telling you your gut is always right. Ok so enough about the blah blah part.
We were happy that we went with our gut because Deevana Beach Resort is so pretty! Eventhough they are not beach front it's just a 5 to 10 minutes walk to the beach. The front might not be so inviting but when you enter then you will be awed by the beauty and simplicity of the place. They have 216 guest rooms which is divided into two parts. The Garden Wing (where we stayed) and The Spa Wing which is near the main pool and the rest of the amenities. Upon our entry we were greeted by the friendly staff and we were informed that we have complimentary meal vouchers which could be used in their restaurant and a 1 hour complimentary massage. Who would say that resorts do not give a lot of freebies?
The room which we got is the Garden View Room:Standard Room, a medium sized room which has all the normal things which could be found in a hotel.
We spent one morning in the resort and swim around their 2 huge and clean pools. The pools by the way are warm and very clean and it does not taste like chlorine which most of the clean pools have. The only down side in this resort is the mosquitos. When we arrived from our island hopping we found a lot and I mean A LOT of mosquitos in our room. Good thing the management came quick when we ask them for mosquito spray and the plug type. After an hour all the mosquitos came out of our room and everything was ok. If you were to ask me everything is great in this resort and those mosquitos were not a problem since the management acted fast.

Yes! The beauty and ambiance of this place is really worth it. Though not a beach front it compensated on what they can offer to their guests a beautiful and serene place for your family. I will also recommend this place to my friends and family.

Budget:
- price is per night and includes breakfast
- these prices are available 1 month before. We booked 2 weeks before and we manage to get these prices. I learned that if you book 1 to 2 months before, it would be more expensive. The best time to book in an off peak season is 2 weeks before you arrive. Deevana offers a lot of choices which suits your budget, you can actually go to their website for more discounts and details.
