Food & drink prices at Chanalai Romantica Resort
Multiple recent reviewers report unexpected F&B charges including breakfast billing for included guests and misrepresented complimentary water. Overall food and beverage pricing perceived as expensive with better value available at local alternatives.
All four claims originate from May–June 2026, indicating that food and beverage billing and pricing concerns are current and recent. No earlier reviews are available for temporal comparison, but the uniform recency suggests the issues reflect current resort practices rather than historical problems.
What the reviews tell us
Breakfast charges disputed for included guests; reviewer charged for partner's breakfast despite booking for 2 people
Room water marked as complimentary but charged at checkout; guest billed for 4 bottles despite expectation of free provision
Resort services and F&B offerings described as expensive relative to alternatives
Local cafes near the hotel offer noticeably better breakfast value than the hotel's own breakfast offering
Chanalai Romantica Resort's food and beverage pricing and transparency practices raise significant concerns based on recent guest feedback. Multiple reviewers report unexpected or misleading charges at checkout, including being billed for breakfast despite booking for two guests and discovering that "complimentary" room water was actually charged at final bill settlement. Beyond specific billing disputes, guests characterize the resort's service charges as expensive overall, and at least one reviewer explicitly recommends seeking breakfast at local cafes near the hotel for better value. The consistency of negative sentiment across different cost-related issues—surprise charges, misrepresented amenities, and general price perceptions—suggests a broader pattern of visitor disappointment with F&B value and billing transparency rather than isolated complaints.
The evidence
Representative quotes from 4 supporting reviewsI was asked to pay for breakfast for my partner when clearly I booked for 2 people
het water op de kamer "complementary" zou zijn maar bij de eindafrekening moest ik toch voor mijn 4 flessen water betalen
Лучше на эти деньги сходите позавтракайте в местные кафе в близи отеля, получите больше удовольствия от еды
