The Gulai House used to be jointly run by the Datai and Andaman Hotels, but it is now just part of the Datai. It has become very expensive, and although the surroundings are attractive to a first time visitor, they cannot trade on this for ever. More importantly, the laid-back friendliness of the staff has disappeared, and one gets the impression that they are just polite to guests "just because it is in the training manual". In the restaurant, there is a display of local seafood, but no-one took us over to see it and explain what dishes could be prepared with each type.
