Private pool, view, breakfast is good. Location is perfect. 5-10 minutes scooter ride from all the action but far enough to have peace and quiet.

The private pool suite we booked for our honeymoon was stunning. We enjoyed the privacy it offered. The buffet breakfast was also amazing.

Room with private pool really nice! Also staff is kind and nice

We LOVED this hotel, so much so we ended up extending and stayed for a month in total. It looks better in real life than photos. The pool area is lovely, we stayed in the month of April and didn’t have an issue finding a sun bed by the pool or looking over the sea. You walk down steps from the restaurant straight into the calmest, clearest sea. It might not be in the heart of Chaweng but that means the beach is quieter and so much cleaner than the closer beaches. You can walk to Chaweng in around 30 mins either down the road or along the beach at low tide, or get a grab. There are also a couple of restaurants nearby if you don’t fancy the journey. We stayed in the main hotel which we would choose again as oppose to the villas, as the walkway to the pool/ restaurant is through the villas so they are less private than the hotel. The staff were very friendly and made an effort to remember our breakfast orders so brought over our coffees/ eggs in the morning without us asking. The breakfast was really good quality and lots of variety. We will definitely be back next time we are in Koh Samui.

The rooms are very modern, functional and comfortable. The pool and restaurant area are very pretty and we enjoyed many meals there. I loved swimming in the pool whenever we had some downtime. The chaises around the pool are very pretty & comfortable and gives it a small boutique vibe. The location is great on Beach but the beach itself was not very impressive for swimming- the water was shallow and because it doesn’t empty into the ocean very freely there - it didn’t seems like the cleanest water.

- Bath was awesome - Facilities and pool was great - Size of the room was really nice, felt like a small apartment - Most staff were super lovely and smiley - Liked the live music - Swim up bar was amazing

The hotel rooms come equipped really well. We stayed at the villas with the private plunge pool and it was a delight. Other than that, there are massive pools at the hotel directly in front of the sea, fully equipped gym and good breakfast. It is also close to the full moon party.

We had an awesome stay at Vannee Golden Sands and can highly recommend this resort. The staff was extremely helpful, and responsive to queries I had prior to the trip. The staff also went out of their way to make our friend's birthday a very special and memorable celebration. The pool and swim-up-bar was fantastic as well (can recommend the pina colada cocktails). The breakfast offered a wide variety of sweet and savoury items, which was great and fresh. I enjoyed the spa and sauna facilities.

The pools are amazing and the sunset from the beach stunning. The bathroom is very big and classy. We also had a private pool which was a bit small, but was functional and very nice to refresh during the day. However the bedroom itself is a bit worn out. The walls were dirty, and there was detached piece of decoration right above the bed. The bed didn’t have a headrest and the mattress was sinking in the middle. So it wasn’t very comfortable. The overall resort is a beautiful structure. All in all we had a good stay.

Everythink ITS so beautifull and so nice staffs so frendly and helpful l. Hotel Pool ITS so Long and many part of Pools to the beach and ITS Salt water ITS so nice. Rooms so beautifull Decoration and very Clean with the big Bad room and in the Garden privat small Pool for privat Times everythink in that Hotel ITS perfekt for familys and Kids best in phangan.

This is the second time that we’ve stayed here and we absolutely love it. The location is fantastic and being right on the beach with a swim up bar and a lagoon swimming pool makes the stay so much more enjoyable.

We had pool access room. That's not much to comment other than everything was EXCELLENT!!! to the size of the room, the beach access, the huge pool, the breakfast. We'll definitely return for the 3rd time to Mercure Samui :-)

Nice unique pool layout which kids loved, direct pool access, cleanness of the hotel & room, friendly staff. Location was also great for strolling around the street for restaurants, yet not loud.

The hotel was great. The staff were fantastic, nothing was too much trouble for them. We loved the pool access rooms. Breakfast was good, plenty to choose from. The massages on the beach were consistently excellent.

Everything looks just like the pictures! The room with private plunge pool was amazing and kids loved all the pools and waterslide. Staff is super friendly and happy to help you with any request. Amazing breakfast.

We had an amazing 11-night stay at the Hyatt Koh Samui! From start to finish, the service was (family-) friendly, thoughtful, and very guest-focused. We stayed in one of their villas, which was good for our family of four (with kids aged 5 and 7). They added a cot next to the sofa and the kids slept comfortably. The villa was clean, spacious, and comfortable, offering everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. The private pool was definitely a highlight and we spent our entire days swimming! The food across the resort was delicious with plenty of variety, and the staff showed incredible care when one of us felt a little under the weather — something we truly appreciated. Highly recommend this resort for families looking for a beautiful, welcoming, and luxurious getaway. We would love to return someday!

Photos and website do not do this place justice, it's so so much better in reality, fantastic across the board. It’s spotless, staff are amazing and the design ensures there is no endless walking to get to lobby, pool and dinner etc. Pool’s beautiful with such an idyllic out and the adults pool with the carved in seating is such an awesome touch. Food was also great with Sesun being a favourite for our family, but all options were great. Kube is great in the evening. It is a bit out from Chaweng but that really had no impact as it’s only about 5mins in a cab that we never had to wait for, even less in a tuk tuk. Could maybe do with a mini mart of some sort for essentials like sunscreen, inspect spray, snacks.etc, but all readily available in Chaweng. Such an amazing place surpassed expectations.

We stayed for 15 nights in the Presidential Villa, which was likely one of the best options for villa type of property stay in Samui with a family. It offers a split bed-and-living room. Both are huge and in extreme good condition. The view and the pool are simply "WOW. And so, the outdoor bath and shower. With all amenities that you can ask for and a private butler. With whom the communication was flawless btw. All staff is up and top professional and even the management very accessible. The Hyatt resort is amazing, it's kept utterly clean, offers a lot facilities plus activities and amazing views from every angle. Where the kids club (incl activities) and kids pool were adored by the kids. The food is great, especially the Indian food I must admit. You can decide to have breakfast at 3x different places, with the beach breakfast mostly not being very busy. And the lounge is a nice add, even though we did not visit it a lot. We loved hanging around the beach and drink fresh coconuts, where there was enough to discover for the young kids and to just relax even when the sea is not "that" accessible. You can still swim into the sea via the little water bridge the water is clear and no jellyfish etc. Transport is very well organized, we never had to wait long for a buggy but walking over the resort is very doable and Chaweng/Central at a 10 mins drive. We'd come back again.... ps: they have the best fireshow in Samui. It's the extended version, we've never seen anywhere else!

Fabulous resort. Located a short drive away from the airport and main areas of Samui. The resort is very clean and the staff are very accommodating and helpful. Don’t listen to the negative reviews on the staff, because they do their best and always make sure you’re happy. The resort has a lot of activities for you to do during the week which is great. The staff member that can do the beat boxing is really funny and always made the day more enjoyable! He Always brightened up the day. Pools are always clean. I don’t understand the negative reviews on the beach because it’s literally just sand? I would bring wet shoes because there are some rock pools. Happy hour during 5-6pm and Thirsty Thursdays at the bar. Overall, 10/10.

Worth every penny. We took a room with a pool access from our room. The pool was warm and its beach front and the pool bar is so lovely and at great prices ! We get 2 bottles of fresh clean water daily and out room is clean. The beach was nice and quiet and very clean

Good location. we were given an upgrade from a pool access room to a pool villa. we were so grateful we loved our pool villa room.

We had the ocean view villa which was superb. Large room and small private pool overlooking the beach. Very quiet location. Good breakfast choice. Hotel bar overlooked the beach. Staff all super friendly and helpful. Would stay again and recommend.

The Villa with private pool was epic! Private, relaxing, spectacular views of the beach. Huge bathroom with spa.

The room was exceptional and tastefully decorated. We booked the Beachfront Pool Villa and the amenities were excellent and thoughtful. We enjoyed the private pool, which was a luxury though a little small. The buffet breakfast was also great.

Beautiful boutique hotel We stayed at the beach front pool villa Private and beautiful Kids loved the private pool and spent hours there Amazing breakfast by the beach Nice beach, no beach facilities Fire show on Thursday night 🔥

Although it is boutique hotel, but the stay was exceptional, I loved the in-room massage u shouldn’t miss that, and the private pool temperature is great.. I will definitely come back.

Wonderful stay, my second time there ! Lovely authentic hotel, nice beach & pools. Nice restaurants and great service. The room is the most special and has a private pool just for these few pool side rooms♥️ Breath taking views!

It was like Having your own little oasis for yourself. Even if the rest of the resort is fantastic and the pool is phenomenal, having your own private pool made the whole thing magical.

Everything was perfect. The view, design, facilities. Great stat and transport inside the resort. 10 min walk to the main street. We took the private pool room with sea view and it was a dream!

Really nice place. Great private pool and friendly staff. But we had a few cockroachs on our room. That was not so cool.

Villa with private pool is paradise.. The beds are hard as every where here. Nothing a massage can't fix

Nothing bad to say if I tried. I had a pool villa, it was amazing and so big. Thought someone had read my dreams when I saw it. The grounds of the hotel were beautiful and the pool was wonderful. The pool is just right for small children with a shallow end and small paddling type pool. There are a couple of bins of toys for them to use so no need for buckets and spades. The bar and restaurant did some lovely food really cheap and all the staff were so nice especially to my 4 year old son. Loved the location, nice and quiet but just enough to have everything you needed. The hotel and beach always seemed peaceful and never busy despite peak season and school holidays. Best 3 star hotel I've ever been to. Also free hotel bus twice a day to Chaweng or stop anywhere on route.

It is our 3rd visit to Coco Palms in 9 years. this visit we found the place to be as tranquil as we remembered. Our room is clean and comfortable, like most places they supply very fat pillows, which makes me feel like I’m being catapulted into the next galaxy when I’m trying to sleep! Pool was lovely and the lounge chairs surrounding it as well as the cushions wall seemed more recently replaced and updated which we appreciated. we had separate pool/beach and hotel room towels, which made it very easy to take towels to the pool and beach and still retain one in your room room. We liked the breakfast buffet. And found that everyone there was very kind and helpful.

Coco Palm Beach resort is a good choice for a secluded get-away at a reasonable price. It's located pretty far off the beaten path in Maenam, but is directly next to the northern pier and the Lomprayah ferry office. If you do stay here, I'd recommend renting a car, unless you don't plan on leaving the resort for your whole stay. The staff was very helpful and friendly at all times; we were fortunate enough to receive an upgrade at check-in, and they also helped us organize our transport and reservations. The bungalow itself was just okay. It was spacious and clean, with good air conditioning; however, the lighting was poor, the beds only average comfort, and the 1-inch gaps around the door frame meant the room was neither well-insulated nor mosquito-proof. The facilities on site are quite nice. The pool is large and well cleaned, and both the beach and pool have ample amounts of reclining chairs and umbrellas. The in-house restaurant didn't impress us as much as other reviews led us to believe; you can get similar quality for much better prices at the variety of restaurants in the local neighborhood.

Amazing service. As soon as you walk in they offer you a cold towel and a drink at reception. Beautiful resort with a fantastic bartender at the swim up bar.

The suite with private pool is exceptional value for money for Koh Samui.

Amazing hospitality and amazing spot on a spotless beach stretch. Close to some nice massage parlours. Excellent room - Seaview plunge pool villa

I've been here more than 10 times now and everytime it's our home away from home. This time we stayed at the private pool villa and the experience has been great. The villa is spacious, the pool temperature is nice and has a great view of the ocean. Would recommend for groups of friends or families with kids to enjoy. Service has always been 10/10 which is why we keep coming back.

Excellent pool, with separate kids pool area and playroom. Swim up bars and access directly from your room. Rooms were smallish but very comfortable.

Pool access was unbeatable. I recommend booking The Level if you can stretch your budget. Not just for pool access but for the 'club' which gave oldies especially a place to engage with other guests at almost any time. (Free cocktail hour especially. :). Nice big / safe terrace for kids too.

Loved our direct pool access from the room. River shaped pool with cute pool bar! Beach was ok - great for kids as it was very shallow. Staff was super lovely and great! The level experience is fantastic :-).

Amazing pool and pool access room. The breakfast was excellent and the hotel was beautiful to stay at. Great food options for lunch and dinner too.

Wow wow don’t stay anywhere else. It’s a beautiful resort on a fabulous beach with lots of do around. Pool access rooms are a must and also the level access is a great add on and worth it. Nothing was bad about this hotel. My daughter 9 also loved it with the kids club and slides.

Good value for money nice swim up rooms clean friendly staff good massage place inside hotel and which is good value for money

Amazing staff, do everything they can for you. They provide taxis and full day sight seeing tours. It’s a 5 minute maximum walk to the beach. Rooms clean and cleaned daily, bottles of water left in room daily. Room service food is great. Swim up rooms or rooms on that side have the best view. Rooms 101-106 don’t have a great view. Pool towels are provided. It’s at the bottom end of Chaweng Beach. Nice and quiet. Baht buses at the entry, it’s very easy to get from the hotel to all parts of the island. Only negative thing is the pool could do with cleaning through out the day as leaves build up. Personally I wouldn’t have breakfast I’d eat out but two of party ate every day and they enjoyed it. Excellent beaches nearby Silver beach and Coral cove good for snorkelling.

Staff were really friendly always and very helpful. My daughter and I stayed for 5 nights, we had a ground floor room that opened to the pool which was nice. The pool and the areas around the resort are kept clean and maintained. My room was made up every day and fresh towels provided. The pool is small however it was rarely busy which I liked. The location was good as it was only about a minute or so walk to the beach, nearest 7-11 is about 5-10 min walk. The resort organised an airport pick up which was appreciated, they also have a taxi service at the hotel (you have to pay) but it was handy as they have set prices so you know what to expect. The bed was comfy, shower worked great, as did the air con. One of the things I liked is that if the staff are driving the hotel carts and you're nearby they'd drop you to the entrance which was nice! No complaints and would recommend.

Absolutely amazing resort! The staff is very kind and helpful every step of the way. Located at the end of chewang beach, with Tops Daily store right next door, plus other eateries and stores. Laundry, taxi and all these kinds of things are always available by the Tops and at the back area. Peacefully quiet and perhaps even secluded from the rush and business of other happening places. If you're able to walk, the whole chewang street is available and possibly can be covered in 40 mins or so. Due to us having kids with us we were never able to get very far without having to take a cab. The central mall is hardly 10-15 min by cab/tuk tuk and charge about 150-200 depending on how well you can bargain. We booked a family room, which included a large king size bed with bunk beds for kids. We had the pool located right outside our room and there's even a bar by the poolside. The area is located on a 'canal' and although non functioning, gives a very good vibe. Truly and very grey stay here.

We loved this hotel and would definitely return. it’s only a 5 minute walk to the beach, if that. the pool area is really nice and has lovely views of the mountains. The rooms are nice and we had a lovely balcony overlooking the pool. The staff were friendly and have little golf carts to get you from the reception to the hotel building which is only a short way anyway. we would recommend this hotel.

It was very comfortable and clean, great swim up pool

At first I have ordered 4 nights. As soon as I got to the reception - and the wauter wellcomes me with a fresh ice juice in a clear glass - Iknew this is my place. So I received my beautifull room, next to the beach and the beautifull sweaming pool - I found it clean, well decorated, amazing candles smell. I was by my self and I fell in love with this concept. The beach is amazing, The restauratnt was the precize for me - Elegant, Clean and perfect service. The reception stuff was so kind I did not want to leave. So I have started with 4 nights but at last I have stayed 9. I feel lucky to choose this place at my first time in Thailand. I am greatfull for the reception stuff: Kell, Nin, Alice, Kang and Simon - you were so responsible, kind and elegant. I am truely think you are the best team ever! I will probably be back again and I am already reccomand Sarikantang as a magical place and resort to stay. Thank You.

The location next to the beach is just beautiful. The rooms are surrounded within a green environment, which makes you feel like you're in paradise. During our stay, it was not too busy at the pools, which allowed us to relax while enjoying the views. The bar and restaurant is located next to the beach which we really enjoyed. A short walk of 5 minutes bring you to the busy streets of the city center.

Lovely and friendly staff, absolutely the best service! They answered all my questions kindly and were always ready to help. I stayed for 5 more day… The food was absolutely delicious with a wide variety to choose from. There are even two swimming pools – a perfect spot for peace and quiet, ideal for recharging and escaping the noise of everyday life! I can only recommend it!

Clean and chilled place. Loved the beach- we have been to a few around thailand- was the best- beautiful, quiet and clean. the variety of options to sit at beach and pool. Clean, and so relaxing, area is peaceful and quiet. There is a shuttle 3 times a day to hadrin town. Staff was helpful.

"A great place, a beautiful romantic villa with a private pool."

Nice property, rooms by the pool were worth the extra price… pools were nice to have a dip as it was hot hot… friendly staff especially Pim who helped out with everything quickly and with a smile, can get scooters at the hotel which you really need if you want to go see a few places around the island without spending cash on the super-pricey taxis… Tanote bay is beautiful and I love to swim so it was amazing to swim out far and see the fish and the scuba divers doing their thing without the busy ness of the boats around….

Absolutely fab location! We wanted something out of the way and on this side of the island and this hotel provided that. The villa was great, private pool and they knew they were out of the way so provided a 5L bottle of water in the room you could buy for 70 baht. The communal pools are huge and loads of sun beds. The restaurant was lovely, we ate there for our evening meal and all enjoyed everything and it wasn’t overpriced.

We loved everything about Tanote Villa. It was 5* hotel, we had a beautiful deluxe room with a pool access which was amazing. The room itself was huge, perfectly equipped, very relaxed. The hotel itself was beautiful, very well decorated. We loved the restaurant and the breakfast? Wow!!! One of the best we ever had with a breathtaking views. They offered gyoza and dim sum, egg as you wish, variety of Thai food and drinks. The location was excelent, just 5 mins walk to the beach with one of the best snorkeling spots in Thailand. 100%!!!

We loved our stay at this hotel! We had a villa with a private pool, which was great fun for our small family. The garden and pool were also lovely and the staff were helpful and friendly. The breakfast was wonderful and varied. The location is close to everything without being noisy. The rooms are a little dated but kept in good condition and very clean, thanks to the lovely cleaning staff. This hotel was great value for money, considering the pool and size of room. We will definitely be back!

A 14 night stay. first we stayed in Deluxe Villa which was quite noisey with interconnecting doors not sound proofed. Also the grouting in the shower needed replacement. We then upgraded to Villa with private pool which was fantastic and very quite (this is a must if you stay here) We then upgraded to the beachfront suite that was very large but we still preferred the villa with private pool. The beachfront restaurant has fantastic food and is not much dearer than restaurants outside. The food is really cheap anywhere you eat. A short stroll out the front gets you to the main beach area where the water temp was about 28 degrees and crystal clear

We stayed here at 3 girls in our early twenties. The whole experience was fab! Rooms clean, comfortable beds, excellent air con, great shower - the full package! The restaurant was lovely to eat in however maybe a little bit over priced in comparison to some of the other restaurants in the area but still very good! Staff very helpful and friendly. Pool area is perfect, you are able to benefit from the best of both worlds. A pool area and beach and they are about 2m from one another. The location was perfect as we were a stones through away from ark bar for partying at night but far enough away to enjoy relaxing during the day. We also had brilliant massages here on the beach by the lovely ladies at the spa. I would recommend this hotel to all my friends as you will not get a better hotel at the same cost!!

Lovely , cottages, , Gardens , terrace rooms with balconies , rooms cleaned daily , Fresh Towels .you can walk through to the beach , pool , restaurant . I didn’t have breakfast . I had dinner , Lunch . Great panang chicken , yum , Great massaman Beef curry , milkshakes . The restaurant , pool overlook the beach and ocean . Very peaceful , Quiet . It is a Great walk to Chaweng beach rd . Massage opposite chess , was fantastic $300 Baht for 1 hour . UNO cafe at the end of entrance Great all day breakfast , Big Breakfast $220 Baht. I had a lovely stay at Montien House and the would stay again

The property is dated but very clean. The staff are fantastic Location is great. Lots of restaurants and shopping within a few minutes walk Big mall is 10 minutes walk with a nice night market . The pool is good but no rail on the steps. The beach is steps from the pool but steps to it are a bit tricky to navigate. I would definitely stay here again and stay in the bungalows

Wonderful property and staff Literally steps to the beach. Quaint little street connected to the property with very good western food 7/11 and mini marts within 5 min walk. Cute pool lots of families with small kids so not a party place but very cool and chill. Very calm water waist deep paddleboards available. Nice sun rise location if weather permits. Only negative might be pool hours 7 to 7 Great spot would return again

Very sweet hotel, the sea is beautiful and very nice to swim, the pool is nice, the staff is very friendly and helpful , Tar Tar from the swimming pool and sea was wonderful and from the restaurant Aye was great, the breakfast was good and around the ther are restaurants . Also Nenci was great We had great time with 3 children. We definitely come back

The Buri is an oasis and has everything you need for a perfect holiday. - Incredibly great breakfast with changing Thai food and egg station - beautiful pool (the rooms around the pool are more for parents because watch out for the noise) - a great bar with happy hour - great spa with great massages (thanks Nuch) - very friendly and helpful staff - very beautifully maintained grounds with amazing plants

We stayed here as a couple in February 2025 for 6 nights. Overall the hotel was nice and comfortable however the location is not ideal. The beach area with loungers is quite small as there is a run off from the town on one side and a the Anantara "private" beach area on the other side. We were not able to swim in the ocean as the waves were quite bad due to a recent storm but when we visited other beaches on the other side of the island we could swim. Had I known that this would be the case we would not have booked here as I love to swim in the ocean. My husband prefers to sit at the pool and there were only 10 loungers total around the pool with no other room to add chairs due to the proximity to the buildings. Overall the hotel is nice with clean well appointed rooms, however our king bed was built against the wall so one of us had to climb in at the end of the bed. The staff was fabulous, the breakfast was included and was fantastic. They worked very hard to clean up the beach everyday however use extreme caution and there was always a lot of broken glass washing in.

The spotless villa, the furniture, the details in the room, the private pool, the location, the service, the staff, the infinitypool Thai food at the beach restaurant

A beautiful place to stay with your own dressing room and private pool. What more can a person want? :)

Third time at Cocohut over the past 11 years. Each time it gets better. Recent renovations are amazing and the skymoon pool overlooking Haad Rin beach was our favourite upgrade. New villas with private pool were top notch. Great quality and a lot of thought went into covering every need you have. Onsite laundry and scooter rentals at good prices.

We stayed for a week in a room with a private pool. We loved the design and decor of the hotel, stylish, clean and comfortable. The beach right in front of the hotel was stunning. The staff and the service they provided was exceptional. We were offered tasty welcome drinks and treats on arrival and daily ‘’treats of the day’’ to our room from just from a click of button. The all inclusive mini bar, which is replenished daily, included your own cocktail making facilities was a very nice touch (suggested cocktail recipes were in the hotel app). We could request a specific time for our room to be cleaned by using the hotel app, which was very convenient for us. Our bed was comfortable, the towels were fluffy, the aircon worked and was much needed. There was a great breakfast selection, which we looked forward to every morning.

what’s to say regarding this beautiful place. we were just astonished from the first step in the place. we were received with scented cool towels and a drink. I had asked for quite room since I am a light sleeper and Golf actually gave me an upgrade to room 833. from the housecleaning crew, restaurant services, pool service. everything was top notch. the front fest service Kik, B-Mild, Golf and Jean were are wonderful. Golf walked to our room and explained the entire room. what a room. Wow. view to ocean. they also had a full complementary bar. Beer, Gin, Whiskey, wine. I am not talking about small bottles. good size that you could get pretty tipsy every day. The pool areas were clean. the even had two 25-30 meter pool. the gym. this was one of the most equipped gym eve ever seen for a hotel or resort. I recommend this place. it exceeded our expectations. would return for sure.

Beautiful resort on a great part of Chaweng beach. The hotel has two great pools and beautiful grounds. The shower is just out of this world, so we used it more than once a day and named it’s the “Angel rain shower”. The staff were fantastic and super helpful. Loved their focus on sustainability, glass refilled water bottles, refillable soaps, free glasses of water by the pool, and pretty much no plastic in sight. As the hotel wasn’t running on full occupancy we didn’t have problem finding an empty sun lounger by the pool, as others reviewers have commented on.

Our stay at Centara reserve was the highlight of our honeymoon. We felt so loved and cared for, and the breakfast was incredible !!! So filling, quality food and we wished we could eat it all day long. Pools were immaculate, facilities so clean and the beach only a few steps away. We loved the drinks at the pool, and the little bar on the right, and I wish I could get one more Long Island iced teas, as they were so good! Big thank you to all the staff at Centara reserve, they were so lovely and welcoming. They even left us a cute surprise in our room! Will definitely be coming back!

wow the hotel is beautiful! huge welcome place, nice staff. the breakfast is rich and tasty. nice beach and great pool. we enjoyed the sun beds next to the pool and the staff were lovely and happy to assist.

We loved the room with the swim up pool outside. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Big thanks to Fonny who helped retrieve belongings I’d left behind at another hotel.

Wonderful hotel in Samui, clean spacious rooms (we did swim up one for us and our teenage boys), staff so polite and friendly, room turned down each day. Would absolutely go back here again. Restaurant staff again were super friendly with a lovely setting and the food was very good.

Plunge pool room was beautiful, plunge pool was a lot cooler than the main pool so we used the main pool more often. Central, easy to get around with a car. Front desk was super helpful with car hire and your arrangements etc.

The pool access rooms are perfect when you don’t want to pay for a full private pool Villa - We loved our room and would 100% book it again. The breakfast was also of a good standard.

Stayed in Pool Villa. Had a small private pool in our villa. The only thing is the shower and bathroom were outside ( outdoors) of the bedroom. A bit inconvenient and lots of mosquitoes!

We had stayed in villa with private pool. The room was quite spacious and pool was nice. Overall the property is nicely located on the beach and the maintenance and service is top notch.

Just returned from our third visit to Celes Samui in 3 years and we can't wait to return again. Service, amenities, food, drink and breakfast were all as wonderful as ever, and as returning guests we were warmly greeted by familiar staff as old friends. We were in Samui a little while before our reservation so dropped in and asked if we could be given our usual room, which the very lovely reception clerk confirmed on the spot. On check-in as returning guests we were then presented with a lovely complimentary canape selection and a super bottle of red wine. We stayed for 14 nights and spent much of our time by the Infinity Pool enjoying the wonderful views across Bophut Bay towards Koh Phangan. When the Infinity Pool became busy we simply moved to the large pool on the other side of the resort to enjoy the late afternoon peace, and a happy hour cocktail. Thank you to all the wonderful staff, and we very much look forward to seeing you all again in the future.

We had an amazing time at the Celes Samui Resort. Our room was very clean and spacious with a bed 2m wide. The breakfast was very varied with western and Asian options. We loved the pool area it was never too crowded we always were able to find a bed at the pool or beach since the resort had 3 pools. The restaurant was to our surprise also reasonable priced and the food was very good. The location was also amazing, we could walk to the fisherman’s village and other restaurants by foot. All in all great experience.

The resort boasts three stunning pools, each providing a perfect spot to relax and soak in the beautiful surroundings. The breakfast offerings were amazing, with a wide variety of delicious options to start the day. My room by the pool was fantastic—spacious, comfortable, and with easy access to the pool area, making it ideal for a refreshing swim at any time. The location of the resort is perfect, situated conveniently close to local attractions yet offering a serene and peaceful environment. Celes has everything you’re looking for in a hotel. Don’t get fooled by the comments about the old and new part. Wherever you are, everything is close and beautiful.

Booked the beachfront villa. Absolutely beautiful, clean, perfect. Enjoyed the in villa pool more than the main infinity pool. The main infinity pool is sizeable, but full almost all the time and there was also some confusion w the staff about the grey and blue towels as I couldn't understand what he was saying. But would come back again ❤️

Great location. Quite beach. Sea front room 10m from beach with private pool and communal infinity pool, Free kayaks/sup boards, very good staff and good restaurant

Good breakfast and dinner, friendly and clean, right at the ocean. Good pool and comfortable and big rooms. Private pool is there next to the room, but doesn’t really make sense.

Beautiful place! We enjoyed the resort by the sea. It was wonderful to hear the waves from the room. The staff was really helpful and friendly!!I 100% recommend the place! We also enjoyed our private pool with view on the sea! It was like a dream.

Beautiful resort, friendly staff, and gorgeous beach. Food in the dumbo was very tasty. Our private pool was a lovely extra, to a cute villa.

The private plunge pool and the view of the beach was amazing. It was a perfect place to chill out away from the busy resort.

The beach is my favourite in koh Samui. Like a postcard view everytime we stepped outside. We had the private pool villa. Definitely the nicest one out of the lot. Massage tables below us were enjoyed by us every day. Great food and drinks. The thai breakfast option with the rice soup... thats a winner. After a week the staff saw us coming down and had the extra hot cappuccinos ready for us as soon as we sat down..nice !!! And if you want a quick snack after a swim..I recommend the fried spring rolls and raw prawns off of the entre menu.

Wonderful! The location is perfect right next to the beautiful beach of Crystal Bay. The staff are so helpful and friendly. Cant thank them enough, they really looked after us. We chose to have breakfast included and so pleased we did! It was delicious. The coffee passed my husbands standards for his needed fix each day. You can have up to three if you wanted! Our son is Gluten Intolerant, and they were well clued up. The menu has gluten free indicated which we found rare to see in others places. For breakfast we had brought bread with us, as had previously read it was hard to source on the Island. The chef was happy to toast this for him to have with the best scrambled eggs we have tasted :oD The pool was cool and clean. And had a cool jungle feel to it when sunbathing on the poolside beds. In fact everywhere was clean. There is a wee bit of work going on as they refresh bit by bit, but it’s good to see this! Exciting for them. It is going to look great. Our rooms were cleaned upon request whenever we needed them to be. The beds soooo comfortable. Had all the amenities we needed. And the interconnecting rooms were perfect for our size 5 family. And to add the Thai massage is awesome you must try this! There is also an impressive fire show every Tuesday Friday Really enjoyed our stay. Thank you to all at Crystal Bay

The location is great! The beach is a little crowded but it is one of the most beautiful beaches on Koh Samui. The pool is insane with a view of the beach and the jungle. The food at the pool is also good but quite expensive. 2 times a week there is a fire show which is nice. I recommend renting a scooter. It is very easy to go around the island with a scooter and it takes 15 minutes to go to Koh Samui mall and 5 minutes to Lamai beach and Chaweng beach. For restaurants i recommend going to Silver Spoon for a cheap pasta and Big Bear Steak for a very cheap thai meal (only 100-200 baht per person for a lot of food). Nahm restaurant is a bit more expensive but very good!

This is a prime location. One of the best beaches we went to in all of koh samui. The staff are super friendly and helpful. We rented scooters through the hotel and this made it easy to get around the island. Breakfast is good and more than enough. A good selection to please most people. The pool is great. It was way better to stay down at Lamai than on the more crowded parts of the island.

Absolutely amazing place to stay definitely upgrade the room so you get the plunge pool the resort was spotless and staff was very helpful with anything you needed

Great facilities and directly at the beach. We loved the villa with the private pool, the atmosphere and how green it was. The hotel is located at fisherman's village which is a highlight on its own, however it is away from the crowds and calm and quiet

The plunge pool room was wonderful. An amazing stay. The bar was great and just off the beach.

Loved the layout of the property. Our villa(with plunge pool) was very close to the main pool and we never had any trouble getting a sunbed. Another pool was located right on the beach near the bar/restaurant area-it was perfect. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful especially Tim, she gave us directions, suggested places to eat and really looked after us. There wasn’t anything to dislike and we shall recommend it to others.

Everything was good, our room, the staff, the pool everything. Yes there’s lots of steps but that’s because of how the rooms are located adding to the charm and staff help you with your bags on arrival and departure. It isn’t really walkable to Sairee Beach but we got the free shuttle down before sunset then easy to get a taxi back which was 400 bht so not a massive issue. They also arranged us to get a taxi to Aow Leuk for the day easily enough and picked us up from ferry on arrival and departure for free. Pool was lovely as well one day we had it all to ourselves and it was beautiful

The staff ware really attentive, extra super nice, breakfast buffet was excellent with freshly squized orange juice and fresh fruit every day and so many varieties, sweet and savory. The room with sea view was stunning and the dining area as well. Room was big enough, had a flash lite for the stairs when dark but they have lightning of the stairs as well. Free shuttle at certain hours to take you down to Sairee beach but be aware they do not take you back up and the taxis are very expensive, 300 baht each way for a short drive. Free shuttle to the pier at certain hours when leaving Koh Tao. Beds are a bit harder but we like that a lot. Pillows very comfy. Lush garden, animals around, we loved that. Great infinity pool with wooden loungers. You get fresh towels for bathroom and pool with 2 bottles of water every day. We had a great time.

OURSTANDING - The staff, so kind, welcoming and helpful. They took time to engage with us daily, offering suggestions and assistance whenever possible. From the time they picked us up at the Pier to the minute we left, we were treated like family. I look forward to returning to meet these lovely people again. The property is lovely, so charming and clean. Has all the amenities we could have wanted. It's about a 20 minute walk into town from the resort, but they have several free shuttles into town throughout the day. Its a bit of an uphill walk back from town, but Taxis are available in the village. The rooms (private little Bungalows tucked into the jungle) are spacious, very clean, and comfortable. I loved it!! The dining room on site was very convenient, and the food reasonably priced and delicious. The infinity pool is fabulous, and has the best view over the ocean.

My stay was fantastic. The location was absolutely beautiful, my room was wonderful, very clean and beautifully laid out with a spectacular view. The pool was amazing with a view across the island. It was small but I always found a sunbed. Despite some reviews there was a restaurant that did lunch and dinner which was always delicious and again had a great view over the water. I also noted in some reviews about the steps - I was at the bottom of the hill and there was a lot of steps but they were manageable and the staff helped me with my bags so it didn't bother me. The staff generally were very helpful and friendly. I did one boat tour and the rest of the time I stayed at the hotel as I liked it so much.

Tucked into the hillside with stunning ocean views, the resort’s cozy bungalows feel like something out of a storybook—possibly where Hobbits would go on holiday. While it's not within walking distance of town, the free daytime shuttle service is convenient. However, returning requires a taxi or scooter rental. The pool is small but still a relaxing spot to unwind. Though we didn’t try the breakfast buffet, the on-site restaurant impressed us with its scenic setting and excellent food—our kids claimed the pancakes were the best they’ve ever had! Prices are also reasonable.

Stunning spot nestled by the beach with easy access to all the area has to offer. Plus, a private pool which was a great size.

Beautiful honeymoon cottage, sensational view with private pool

The villas are great. We stayed in the koi beach villa with a private pool and it was amazing.

Where to start - honestly this place just blew my mind! It was absolutely incredible! We stayed in the Koi Pool Villa (one of the more expensive options) and I would pay it all over again! It was an absolute dream with a huge villa but not too big for two people. You of course had daily villa and pool cleanings, with a constant supply of complimentary snacks and drinks (water/coke/redbull etc) daily. The private balcony and pool really sold this for us - being able to sit on your own balcony not 10 steps away from the ocean was truly divine and to take a dip in the pool when you felt like it was a game changer ✨ If you’re worried about there not being a shop close by - DONT be! There’s a 7/11 about a 10 minute walk down Sairee beach which also takes you to a town section too, lots to explore and nice places to eat as well! Just a little walk from the hotel there and back ☺️ I would 1000000% recommend anyone coming to koh Tao to spend a little more and live a moment of luxury on this beautiful island 🏝️ All of the lovely people that worked there were so friendly and helpful too! 🤍

Incredibly stunning location and facilities. Was in awe of the view. Swimming in your own private pool whilst watching the sunset over the ocean is breathtaking. A once in a lifetime accommodation!

Great view, privacy, short walk to snorkeling. Beautiful rooms, and very spacious for a family of five. Good workout walking up the hill! Loved the private pool and close snorkeling access.

Beautiful clean well kept private pool and most comfortable balcony relaxing area with most amazing sea views. Beautiful bedrooms and bathrooms. Immaculate dream home type holiday home.

Unbeatable views, private pool, shark bay at your door.

The included breakfast was amazing. The pool was fantastic with the floating beanbags and swim up bar. Easy access to the beach. Very clean and tidy.

The location is perfect, close enough but far enough from the tourist locations. The service was great, from the front desk, breakfast, lunch and dinners. The swim up bar and extra cocktail and pizza classes were perfect too. Overall staff were amazing.

Private pool villa was awesome for a romantic getaway. Breakfast was excellent. Lovely beach in a quiet area. And no Kids! In a very quiet area, but free shuttle to Fisherman's Village and Chaweng for more action.

Excellent adults-only resort with fantastic staff. We stayed in a villa overlooking the water with a private plunge pool. We enjoyed some of the free activities like the Thai language class and water aerobics.

Loved my private pool and that the water was cool !

We stayed at the family room with private pool, closest to the beach and it was amazing! The hotel is beautiful. Is build on a steep hill going down into the beach. The beach is sandy and quiet with nice restaurants and decent snorkeling It’s very peaceful and calm, it was a great vacation

Very nice and clean villa with private pool! Reception desk ready to help for all your needs. Nice beach bars/restaurants very near.

stunning view of bay with lovely small plunge pool high up the hill

We loved the beautiful views from the ocean, the room, the private pool. The bed where comfy. If you choose a villa with pool you will definitely get a lot for your money. The villa was big, and we had sea view from every window. You could even see it from the bed. The pool was great temperature so you could cool down. It was definitely a romantic place, and we loved it as a couple! The room and views looks the same like the pictures. The ladies did a great job cleaning the room and making sure we had water, toiletpaper and fresh towels every day. We dont understand the bad reviews about the steep climb. While it is a couple of stairs its not a problem at all if your in normal shape. Its just 3 minutes walk to the beach, from the room.

Secluded garden room with plunge pool was fabulous. And loved the lemongrass incense they used each evening. We dined in their Thai restaurant by the lotus pond one night - excellent food & service. Staff lived up to being in the land is smiles.

we had a nice room with private pool, the hotel is on the beach

High-end small resort with luxury accommodations and top-notch service. Beautiful landscaping, lush trees and shrubs everywhere, nice good-size pool and an elegant restaurant with reasonable prices. Hotel is about 20 minutes on foot from Fisherman’s Village, either by the road in front of hotel or by the beach. Our fully enclosed premier villa was absolutely gorgeous with marble floors, lots of wood finish, strong air conditioning and a private plunge pool. We wish we could stay there much longer.

We went here for our honeymoon and had a truly exceptional time. Our villa was even better than the photos, extremely spacious, comfortable, with a private pool and deck chairs - the staff even prepared a decoration on the bed when we arrived! The wider resort is also wonderful - semi-private beachfront, steps away from the night market, and there was a delicious breakfast every morning. We also had one dinner at Salathai restaurant and were blown away by the quality and value of the food. We can't wait to find an excuse for our next visit!

Amazing property and we had the best room with the private pool. We loved staying here. Pat was lovely and very helpful throughout our stay, and even helped arrange us a private tour in a large boat for a great price. No complaints and definitely would stay here again!

Fantantic view from our private pool Amazing room with everything you need for a perfect stay Quiet, tidy and spacious room

beautiful Villa just as described!! The private pool and comfortable sleeping quarters were absolutely wonderful.

We were located in the private lighthouse villa for our anniversary where we had our own private pool! It was an amazing location and we had a fantastic view. All the staff were so friendly and had a good variety for breakfast too.

This was the last place we stayed in thailand and we splurged a little so we could relax the last few days of our trip. Already excited, we arriced and were told they upgraded us to the honeymoon suite! Wow what an amazing room,private pool, giant bed, great views. They also let you rent snorkeling gear for free with a small deposit, so we went snorking which was beautiful. The only small negative we had was the night we went to eat at their restaurant, the food was pretty good but the service was a bit slow and they seemed a bit understaffed. Other than that this is a top notch stay and they really do take care of you. Lastly the stairs are a bit intense but totally doable.

The resort is in the most amazing location, really a beautiful setting on the hillside. Perfect for us although very steep with lots of steps which may be a problem for some. The rooms were clean and comfortable and serviced on request. Snorkeling is really great too right from the resort. Our only real complaint is the lack of service around the very beautiful pool area. We only had bar service around the pool on the first day we arrived, thereafter we used the phone at the poolside to call for service even though the sign said the bar should be open. The pool area would be amazing if there were staff around to serve drinks, offer towels, sunbeds and umbrellas. And the resort would make more money! Also it would have been great to be able to order food around the pool like most other hotels offer.

What an amazing resort! This was our second stay (2023 first time) and as we thought it could not get better, the beautiful people at Sai Daeng made it Even better than the first time! - amazing rooms, clean, spacious - good views! - great food! Breakfast, lunch, dinner….🤩 - lovely staff!!! No matter who or where at the hotel, everyone is lovely and helpful! - super extras!! Muay Thai, Yoga, Spa, kanoeing, ice bath… and pool DJ! Fabulous! And - of course- the resort itself! Great beach, great corals, great pool Definitely a 5 Star rating- we will come back a third time 🐠🩵🐠 Thank you, Sai Daeng

This is the most beautiful resort we've ever stayed in. The beach, the waters, the snorkeling is only rivaled by places we stayed in Fiji. We stayed in a beachfront room that was just 1.5 flights of stairs of the beach where the restaurant is located. The pool, reception, and parking lot is up about 4 flights of stairs that could wear on some people. If you were at a room on the far side I could see it taking away from the experience. The main areas of the resort are kept in great condition, the pool, restaurant and rooms are five star. Clean, modern, absolutely fantastic. Bed was the most comfortable we've ever had in Thailand and the view couldn't be beat. The areas less used appear to be falling into a state of disrepair, buildings that aren't used are dirty, some ponds left to wither away with garbage in them, half full of water and leaves, and the water slide doesn't look like it's been in use in at least a year. What really knocks the rating down for us, was the absolute absurd and offensive prices for services, food, and drinks. The resort is 15 minutes out of town and cab rides are 500 baht ($25CAD) each way, but that does not entitle management to charge 270 baht for a cocktail (>$10) and 1800 baht for a massage ($75) when going rates anywhere else in Thailand are 250-350 baht for the same thing. Luckily the resort next door is more reasonable and we spent our money there instead. One of the best resorts we've been to and unfortunately we wouldn't go back.

Absolutely beautiful resort set on the most gorgeous beach. We stayed in the family beachfront villa with our 2 teenagers, we had our own pool overlooking the beach which was amazing. Listening to the waves at night going to sleep was so relaxing. The villa was spacious & comfortable. The upstairs bathroom was a little hot & dark, but didn’t worry us. Being able to snorkel directly from the resort was the best part, so many fish & beautiful coral on the other side of the resort. Bring beach shoes as it’s quite rocky to get in. The beachfront restaurant was lovely & the service was good, reasonable prices too. When you book directly through the resort you get a private long tail boat tour around the island & massages in the spa included. Would not hesitate to come back to Koh Tao & Sai Daeng, just wished we’d stayed longer.

Absolutely loved our stay in the villa with private pool here, room was great size, with sofa & extra bed. AC worked really well. Bar Staff was attentive & kind & helpful. Breakfast buffet was yummy with nice thai options! The beach in front of hotel is a perfection ♡ thank you.

Location is amazing Haad salad is a very special spot. Property was beautiful in its ocean view. To walk out on that beach daily was a blessing. enjoyed the quiet serene beach. To walk every am and pm. Oceans still. Very Warm Perfect Staff are friendly and kind. Everything is only really a 5 to 15 min scooter away. But just tucked away enough to feel slightly outside the busier spots. I had the private pool room. I liked my positioning. I prefer my privacy For the price could have a screen there or something to seperate it a bit from public walkway.

Everything. The staff, the location, the pool and food were all fantastic. We were only supposed to stay for 4 nights but I hurt my back during the 1st couple of days and I was struggling to move around and we had to extend our stay by another 4 days. The manager told us the cheapest website to rebook which was actually cheaper than their own rate and they also offered us a free upgrade so I'd be happier when I was stuck in bed recovering. They drove us around to the pharmacy when i needed it and All the staff really took care of me aswell. If I went to the restaurant they bought me cushions so I'd be more comfortable and they gave me so much care and sympathy. They really are a great bunch there. The location right at the end of the beach is perfect and there was always space in and around the pool. I want to thank all the staff for everything, I had a rough time and they really helped me to enjoy my stay. They deserve a pay rise haha

Wonderful place. Staff was very friendly and polite. Big and clean room with nice view on the pool and sea. Nice and clean pool with free sunbeds on the beach. You do not need more than this.

Rooms: Spacious, tidy, neat and clean. The beds were super comfy. Restaurant: The menu was a tad overpriced, but the food was good. Breakfast is basic, I would rather have breakfast elsewhere for a better price. The fresh coconuts here are delicious. Closes at 22:00 Staff: The staff were very friendly and helpful. "Bass" was on point with service at the restaurant and "Few" was really helpful with transport. Swimming pool: The pool was well maintained, clean and kid friendly. There were plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas to relax at. Towels are provided at reception. Beach: This is a beautiful and relatively quiet beach, the sunsets were absolutely breathtaking. The sand is powdery white and the water is clear, an ok place to snorkel. We had a lovely stay here and would certainly love to come back in the future.

Very relaxing hotel, beautiful views from the main pool and restaurant. The food and drinks were very good and a good price. The room was comfortable and decorated nicely and the private pool was a great addition.

Great place, away from the hustle...but still easily accessible. Bed was not so comfortable but private pool villa made up for that. staff and food are awesome.

The tiny house with plunge pool was very charming. I loved it.

The apartment was great, super clean everyday changed my towels. the kitchen has cooking accessories. sofa and big closet, really nice bathroom . the pool was big and clean, has good chairs and pool towels . the stiff was really helpful and i booked to ferry and transfer to my next distention with them.

Good facilities to cook Big wardrobe Balcony overlooked pool Poolside was very chill and bean bags provided Comfy bed and sliding door separating room from living area was helpful Fresh water and loo roll daily 4 min walk to strip however still quiet

We loved everything. The room was super clean, spacious and had everything we needed. The bed was comfy and the bathroom was modern. Our room was cleaned everyday and we were given fresh towels, water and coffee. The pool area was well maintained and very quiet. We had to leave a 500 baht deposit for the room upon arrival but we were given this straight back when we checked out. We rented a motorbike for 200 baht for 24 hours. We did need to leave our passport but we did get it back on return. The lady on reception was very helpful and friendly. The planes for the airport do go so low to the hotel and it is noisy but they don’t go throughout the night and we enjoyed watching them go over.

Amazing. Staff are friendly. Location was perfect, just a walk away from Chaweng. Offer many services like scooter rent and transfers. Room was amazing, kitchenette and spacious living room! Such good value for money! Rooms were also cleaned daily. Pool was clean and good size. To add, when we left the property we realised we had left our go pro in the bedroom. Staff were so good and honest and were happy to send this to us!! Couldn’t ask for a better place to stay in Samui.

The private access to the beach is a big plus. If you can, go for the beach front rooms with plunge pool. They are worth the price!

Great staff, beautiful location. This is very much a boutique resort, small and intimate. Lamai Beach was close enough but many days you likely want to take a taxi or ride share app due to the heat. Room with plunge pool was great, nice way to cool off.

Hotel is situated in an quite area, there are some cafes and restaurants as well as the Grandfather and Grandmother's Rock, all within walking distance. All the staff is very friendly and helpful. There are 2 swimming pools, a gym, a small spa and a little library. Complimentary shuttle bus at 11am and 5pm to Lamai Beach and also one at 11am to Chaweng. The rooms look new, probably the hotel did some refurbishment, our plunge pool room is very spacious and clean with a huge bed, view from the room is beautiful especially at sunset!

We upgraded to the beachfront villa with plunge pool on arrival and I am so glad we did. It was absolutely stunning setting and the room itself was also beautiful. The amenities and extra touches in the room are what you would expect from a 5* hotel. Breakfast and all meals were truly delicious. Service was exceptional from beginning to end. It was my partners birthday and they had a couple of extra surprises for him which was lovely.

First of all, the reception area is amazing! When we arrived we got a very nice welcome drink and a cold towel. The reception crew are professionals, kind and helpful. We ordered a room in front of the pool and got upgraded to the family villa with a private pool and two floors, it was incredible to have such a huge villa only for two people. Obviously we got escorted to the room and got an explanation about all the resort. The stay was excellent by any mean, the two pools, the two bars and the restaurant with excellent breakfast. the beach is perfect even if its a bit shallow and rocky. Even just walking in the resort and seeing the gardens was so fun. I really recommend to book this hotel for your vacation in koh samui!

Chantaramas was a gift from the heavens! After vacating our previously-reserved hotel because it turned out to be a nightmare, we were desperate to find something suitable nearby. Luckily, we happened upon Chantaramas Resort and our vacation was saved. From the moment you walk up, the entire site is designed to be as pleasing as possible, with super friendly staff there to reinforce the loveliness. Our room was spacious, clean, and elegant. The bathrooms are luxuriously giant - a separate toilet, shower, and giant soaking tub (large enough for 2!). The amenities at the hotel simply can't be outdone - a gorgeous infinity pool with a swim-up bar, multiple areas and surfaces to lay out on, a delicious restaurant with extremely fair prices, a warm peaceful beach cove perfect for wading around in. The front desk staff was always available to call us a ride, give us recommendations, make change, or answer any of our questions. There isn't much within walking distance, but taxis are plentiful and highly affordable to the nearby attractions. The air conditioner in the room could've been a bit more powerful, and the breakfast buffet leaves something to be desired. However, for the price, this place was an absolute unexpected gem and I'm so glad we found it. We couldn't have been happier with our time here!

I stayed in this resort with my wife and it was totally worth it. Despite all the negative comments, I booked the resort anyway at the last minute. Turned out that the services were pretty good. The staffs were very polite and attentive. We stayed in Deluxe room and it was very spacious and clean. The furniture is made of wood which is very nice. The in-room amenities were also good. The beach is quite private. Sand is nice and clean. Sea is totally enjoyable. Wide range of breakfast and they were quite fresh and tasted good. Pool is the highlight. There are trees beside the pool which gives a nice ambience even at noon. There is also a mini bar by the pool so there's literally nothing more I could ask for. All in all it's an excellent for me.

Amazing accommodations (they upgraded us for free) with everything needed for a relaxing stay including beach towels and a beach bag. The pool area was lovely and the beach was small but nice. Unfortunately the pool side bar was never open during our stay. Breakfast was okay but I would recommend going somewhere else for lunch or dinner (there are a couple hotel restaurants just a walk down the beach). Best of all were the staff. They were kind and helpful. They set up taxis, printed out ferry tickets, answered questions, made us a breakfast to go before our trip, and even helped us pack to catch our ferry when we had returned late from the full moon party. Special shout out to Phu. While it's a little far from the action, it was the best place to stay.

Love the pool bars, beach beds and beach pools. Perfect view and perfect way to rejuvenate. Rooms were however quite dark and lots of mosquitoes around so an insect repellent is always required.

Great hotel. Staff are nice and friendly (although the front desk closed down at 11pm..odd). We went to this hotel last minute b/c of the moon-party and its location is great 100 bhat per person regardless of where you go. Food was good at the hotel (both breakfast and dinner) - we didn't try the pool bar. View is outstanding looks right out to the sea and surrouding islands from pool and restaurant area. Rooms were large with a walk-in closet/bathroom area and outdoor shower...simply beauitful and super comfortable..defintely better than other hotels (where we paid a lot more). Surrounding area outside the hotel is very average but thats the whole island..small shops/restaurants/7-11s...etc. nothing fancy. You MUST try the Fisherman's restaurant...absoltyely fantastic and cute and amazing food...we tried the full seafood menue and loved it (and the crab curry comes as a whole crab...not fillet pieces..) you will not regret getting there and being treated well..in a very comfortable and cozy atmosphere.

The Kimpton did not disappoint. The staff was amazing and super helpful, the food was delicious- every meal was excellent and the swim up pool room and the entire grounds was comfortable and immaculately kept. Loved all experiences, but my massages with Gift were one of my absolute favorites!

the hotel itself is absolutely stunning. we had a pool access room and I can highly recommend it was like having a huge private pool to yourself. no rooms opposite and the balcony had a huge day bed plus table and chairs. the hotel grounds are beautiful.

The facilities were outstanding, having pool access was a real treat and the staff were all amazing - remembering our names and what we had planned whilst on the island.

The pool access room was very comfortable. Easily able to spend a day in the room, swimming and laying on the sun bed! Good local restaurants in walking distance from hotel. Night markets a short drive away.

Loved the hotel and its staff and if you have to stay at the pool access room !

The staff was great, the pool and beach area, the beach bar (with daily house - the passionfrit Mojito Was yuuuum) and swim up bar were great, the location is amazing - right on the beach and just a short walk from the main restaurant and shopping street. The breakfast was AMAZING, they also offered extra choices for vegetarians.

We had a splendid time at this resort. The property is lush with vegetation and water features, very pleasing to walk around and enjoy. Very welcoming, friendly, and helpful staff throughout the resort. Beautiful pool and beach. Swim up pool bar was closed for the duration of our stay, but poolside/beach bar was open day and night and poolside service was available. The suite we had was large, clean, and comfortable. Excellent location just steps away to walk into Fisherman's Village, which is laid back and full of beachfront restaurants, bars, shopping, and spas. The location was a huge benefit and reason enough to go back to this resort. We did not care for the sales pitch and pricing/options offered through the hotel for excursions, and we opted to book boat day trips, etc elsewhere. Dining options were superb. Sufficient choices and food options for the included breakfast. The food at the Thai restaurant on site was fabulous. A little overpriced, but beautiful setting and an excellent meal at the flagship Full Moon restaurant. We enjoyed our time more at this resort and location than we did staying on the larger, busier, and less relaxing Chaweng beach. The spa at this resort was simply incredible. The spa grounds and treatments we had were among the best we have had anywhere in the world. Overall, one of our favorite resorts we have stayed at and we would absolutely return here.

From the moment we checked in to the moment we checked out, staff were smiling and doing everything to please the guests. Nothing was too much to ask for. The hotel grounds, facilities and pool were beautiful and clean. I feel I need to mention a few names to give them a special thanks for truly a five star service. At the pool, Sam, Bird, Thong, Billy and Ten. Guest relation, Shima and Ella. Restaurant staff, Fon, Wallaya, Lily, Cha, Gun and Paul the F&B manager. I would definitely visit again very soon because we were treated extremely special. You will not be disappointed if you wish to stay here. You will never want to go and visit anywhere else. Many thanks to all the members of staff who made our stay a truly memorable one.

I really enjoyed my stay at Anantera Bophut. The resort was beautiful with plenty of space and different areas where you could find some solitude or be around others. Great pool area, beautiful beach, good gym open 24 hours. The spa was lovely and the massages top notch. The breakfast buffet was had many choices ranging from congee, Asian style soups, breads and baked goods, eggs Benedict, cheeses, fresh fruits, etc. Also although there were several families with children, they have a separate area for kids and they were not intrusive around the pool. The beach was clean and well watched by their security staff. And most importantly, the service was impeccable. Without exception, the staff were friendly, welcoming and could not have been more accommodating. Highly recommend!

pool and facilities are amazing, the staff are so friendly and helpful, service is super speedy. Have some many cute feel good moments like leaving little local treats on your pillow in turn down, and special daily treats by the pool. Perfect location to make fisherman village walkable, cant recommend it enough.

Loved everything about this place! Located on easily the best beach on Koh Pha ngan, I stayed here for around 6 days with my husband in a room by the pool. All the staff were amazing! From the sweet Burmese guys who served our breakfast, the lovely bar staff to the cleaners. Any issues were dealt with efficiently so all good. The sunsets were so special and the moonlit evenings magical. Food was really good though breakfast got a bit same same after a while.But still a nice breakfast. It was so hot we didn’t have much of an appetite to be honest. It got quite busy at the resort at times, so perhaps it would be good to put out a few more sunbeds. But no big deal for us as we used those days to explore the island by bike. Will definitely visit again.

Staying at Sand in My Shoes was one of the highlights of our trip to Koh Phangan. Everything about this place was perfect — the rooms were spotlessly clean, the pool was great! the location right on the beach couldn’t be better, and it was close to everything we wanted to explore in the area. But what truly made our experience exceptional was the staff — they were, without a doubt, the best we encountered on our entire trip. Warm, helpful, and genuinely caring. We also rented a scooter through the hotel, which was super convenient and hassle-free. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay — can’t wait to come back!

Great place with great staff and a great location. Gina, the manager and the team were kind, friendly, and helpful with everything we needed throughout our stay. The place offers a nice breakfast and facilities like SUP, kayaks, and beach toys for kids. The location is on a private beach but still close to the main street with restaurants, groceries, and shops. Lovely swimming pool. The hotel has only 9 rooms, so it feels intimate and quiet. Great value for money, highly recommend!

- room was very stylish, clean and comfortable - calm and clean beach, super for swimming and relaxing - free SUP and kayak for rent - outside area was very comfortable and inviting to relax - breakfast was various and delicious - pool was like heaven surrounded by plants and accessible all day

We had a wonderful stay. The rooms are beautiful, well designed and decorated. Lots of lovely touches and very spacious. The pool is like a tropical paradise. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. Very relaxed and right on a stunning beach.

Lovely little property, the swim out pool room was beautiful and waking up to all the birds and nature was stunning!

Very spacious swim up room . Good breakfast and very very very friendly staff. Great location only 4 mins walk from port

The location is great - very close to the main pier, so you can just walk from there. Their restaurant is on the beach. And it's quiet enough during the night. My room was spacious and had pool access. The pool is very nice and clean. The bed was very comfy.

The direct pool access with private loungers. The size of the room. The hotel location is great and peacefull. You can drive a bike to sairee without going on the main road. Restaurant was right on the beach like 5 meters from water.

Big room, private sun loungers and direct pool access. The restaurant was cheap with good food and service.

Very nice hotel, set out like a village. Almost everything was wonderful. The staff were friendly and helpful. Good location. Nice breakfast. The beach is nice and pool area relaxing. Only down was the plunge pool was very dirty, asked for it to be cleaned but only cleaned the leaves from the surface.

An oasis amongst the Chawang beach bustle. Nicely appointed rooms presented in Thai Style. We stayed 7 nights in a deluxe room with private pool and it was lovely. Comfortable bed, nice bathroom, and most of all, extremely attentive staff - the best customer experience I have ever witnessed for a hotel and always with a smile.

This is an amazing hotel right on the beautiful chaweng beach. We had a pool room close to the beachfront which was amazing, private space to relax but still accessible to everything. The gardens are so beautiful, a calm oasis! The staff are excellent and here to make your stay extra special. Rit made sure we had a cocktail on hand whether at the beach or pool. Arm and the team at breakfast we also amazing, as was the selection of eggs and food available. My husband particularly loved the iced late! The pool is small but perfectly usable and we enjoyed many a dip! All in all we can’t fault this hotel and we are leaving with our hearts full after the perfect honeymoon, thank you Buri Rasa❤️

Located on the quiet end of Chaweng Long Beach, the location is serene. Right on the beach, yet fronts a street with cabs and restaurants. Rooms cleaned daily with care and well appointed. We upgraded to a room with a splash pool (for 2500 THB for 4 nights) and were so glad we did! The pool was closed for repairs and we could t be bothered to walk 5 minutes to the other property with pool privileges. Staff SO nice!

Had seven nights in a boutique garden pool villa and loved it. An amazing resort! Loved everything about it! Location was great right on the Chaweng Beach front. Not a big resort so had a really good vibe. Staff were all awesome! Yummy breakfast! Great pool! Heaps of loungers by the pool and beach front with lots of natural shade if you want it! Fantastic holiday

One of the most beautiful resorts I've ever been to! Peaceful, calm, serene, relaxing, luxurious. Get the sea view villa! It has the most amazing views - even from the shower! And one of the only places on Ko Samui where you can see the gorgeous sunsets (you can't do that on the East Coast in Chaweng). You don't hear your neighbours as you are in your own little paradise bubble. Very romantic if you're there with a partner, I imagine (I was on a solo trip). There were a few young families with children but they didn't make much noise at the pool. Lovely private beach (a bit stoney here and there), gorgeous infinity pool, air-con great, Wi-Fi perfect, free fun activities like yoga, cycle tour, Muay Thai class, cooking class, free beach bag & flip flops. As the resort is a bit further away from the hustle & bustle of Bophut and closer to the jungle, it does take a about a 15 min taxi ride to tourist attractions. But I chose Napasai to relax, so I was fine to stay at the resort for the first half of my Thailand trip. I enjoyed being away from large groups of tourists. Surprisingly I was not bitten by a mosquito once but I made sure to wear strong insect repellent with DEET. The resort does spray insect repellent once a week all over the grounds, so maybe that helped as well. Lastly, the resort has the most attentive staff I've come across. Friendly, helpful but also know when to leave you in peace and quiet. I highly recommend Napasai!!!

If you are after luxury and to be pampered, look no further as this is the place for you. At Belmond every staff member knew our name and every little attention to detail was taken care of. You could spend the entire day at Belmond - snorkeling off the private beach; relaxing by the infinity pool or on your own private balcony. For the more adventurous, stand up paddle boarding, boxing or cycling were just a few of the onsite activities, or if this is not your cup of tea, relaxing in one of the pool bars or restaurants or being pampered at the Spa. I have never see such an amazing array of breakfast foods and treats, but don't over indulge and you will want to keep room for Chef Wally's dinner menu. With many things to do on the island, these are all easy to get to either via public transport, taxi or hire care. A short 20min drive and you will be in the hustle and bustle of Koh Samui's Fisherman's Wharf and markets; a bit further and you are in Chaweng and other attractions. This is by far my favourite resort that I have ever stayed, and I am I already planning my next visit.

A beautiful luxury hotel located on a private beach. The staff is wonderful and the vilas are a modern take off on a traditional Thai wooden house, super comfortable and private. They clean the room in the mornings and prepare it again before night. There is a Nespresso coffee machine and fresh fruit that is restocked each day. The breakfast is very rich and tasty. The infinity pool is wonderful and you get fresh towels and cold water while sitting next to it or on the beach. The cocktails and snacks you can order at the pool or the beach are expensive compared to the local prices but are very good. They offer a lot of activities like yoga and tennis lessons, and also provide sea sports equipment for snorkeling and kayaks. What we loved best was the peaceful and private location, the high level of service and the thinking about the small detail. We even got small presents when we left to remind us of our lovely stay.

We stayed a month in this wonderful resort on a beach front villa and absolutely loved every about Napasai resort! The villa was beautiful, food was great, access to beach and pool was terrific and the management/staff were EXCEPTIONAL from day 1 right until our departure. They were kind, considerate and always had a smile on their faces. I am a bit of a clean freak so I loved the fact that all areas of the resort (particularly the public washrooms off the pool & dining areas) were immaculate and incredibly clean. If you are looking for a place to just kick back, relax, stress free then Napasai should be on your list of places to stay! This resort is definitely a 5 Star.

The pool was magical. We spent most of our time here. The restaurants were delicious and breakfast was amazing. The gym was great. Just the right amount of activities and water equipment to keep busy, including free bicycles and water sports. Ping pong, pool/snooker table, darts. Tennis courts, yoga shala, Thai boxing area. The rooms were large and felt like a tropical oasis. The staff was attentive but not overbearing. The location was quiet and felt remote, but it's walking distance to the main road. Staff was helpful with suggestions for boat trips, restaurants, and other island amenities.

Beautiful place & outstanding room with private pool. Food was good with great beach area. Would recommend highly.

Property was an extension of their private beach which was like basking in natures beauty. Our room was brilliant , with a private pool overlooking the ocean.

Truly beautiful resort, would recommend, especially paying slightly more for the bungalows with private pool. Slight issue with the reception staff at the very end over our laundry but did not dampen too more of the overall experience.

2 bedrooms pool access suite was beautiful The beach bar was a very cool vibe with DJ most daytimes The breakfast buffet was superb and the Sunday brunch amazing g though very pricey

Great for families with small children, the pool access room has a section for babies so very comfortable and convenient!

Loved that it had a quiet and relaxed atmosphere (to have dinner 6pm onwards) overlooking the beach, with delicious fresh meals and attentive staff. Loved that there were plenty of spaces (sun beds) that looked welcoming, where you could relax and read a book but also enjoy relaxing tunes, overlooking the pool. Loved that the day club finished at 5pm. Loved that they had their own day spa on site. Loved the lap pool -75metres is huge!! Loved that it was mostly adults only. It was so tranquil!

Location and private pool were the high scores for us

Me and my friend had the best of times, honestly ive never seen a staff so dedicated to making our experience the best it can be. They were really helpful and always with a big smile. Also special shout out to Mr. Kyaw Zin Htwe who was really helpful throughout the stay. We loved the fact that even though we had to go early before breakfast, they gave us a little bag with breakfast in it for the drive. The room with the private pool was amazing and would recommande 100%

Easily one of the best places I stayed in SE Asia: top 3. Already decided when I come back, this is where im staying. Words like "Bungalow", "Boutique", "Villa" spring to mind. Spent 4 days there, and could've easily spent a week. Its literally on the beach (with own private beach chairs if you wish), but up at the top of Lamai beach so not crowded AT ALL like some of the resorts in the middle. About a 5 min walk down the beach to the middle of the strip with the restaurants & shops. The little bungalow rooms are absolutely adorable, inside and out. Huge comfy bed, sweet sunken bathtub/shower, aircon, WiFi, and the pool..... oh, the pool. Surrounded by frangipani trees and beautiful flowers, overlooking the beach. They have a pool bar and its right next to the restaurant. I spent about 7 hours there one day. The staff was very accommodating, they upgraded my room, and let me stow my luggage and use the pool after check out while waiting for my flight. The whole vibe of the resort was just perfect & I cant wait to come back!

The property is right on the beach with lots of little pathways from the bungalow to the beach. The property had swings on the trees overlooking the sea. The bar food menu had lots of options to chose from and was great value for money The pool bar staff were excellent. The pool area was nice and relaxing and you could easily be served whether sitting at the pool or on the beach. The property was easy walking distance to the town and night markets Our room was always cleaned daily and the fridge restocked each day

I was apprehensive as read some negative reviews. However everything was prefect. Pool was great. Food was very good. Staff super friendly. Room huge. There is no beach per se but we knew this and pool more than compensated. If you want beach you merely walk 5 minutes either direction from waterdront. Overall it was really good. Value for money and a pretty eclusive feel to it. Highly recommend.

The resort is very nice and clean, the swimming pool is shallow all the way but the whole swimming pool area is very well setup and relaxing. The room was spacey and overall good but the bed could've be a little softer for my taste. Restaurant and spa top class.

We had a very pleasant stay at the Summer Luxury resort. The rooms are really spacious and the resort is pretty with a nice pool and a sea view from the restaurant. We went in December and I believe there is a high tide at this time so there was no beach, but this didn’t really bother us as we didn’t have great weather anyway during our stay. The downside of this hotel is the location, there is a dirt track to get to the hotel which I personally wouldn’t feel too comfortable walking down at night. We hired a car as we found that there wasn’t many restaurants / things to do within walking distance. Having said that, the restaurant at the hotel is really nice, we enjoyed the food and the staff are very friendly. The breakfast was also really good too. The reception staff were also friendly, I didn’t get his name but one man in particular made our stay with his welcoming and warm attitude, and willingness to help us with any queries/trips we wanted to book etc! Another member of staff at the poolside bar was very friendly and attentive too. Unfortunately the cooking class wasn’t open due to maintenance during our stay which was a shame as we had rain most days and found ourselves looking for things to do. The spa was also closed for maintenance on one of the days. Overall, the hotel is nice, and I would definitely recommend if you’re not too bothered about hiring a car/scooter to get around.

Our first trip to Koh Phangan (and Summer Luxury Beach Resort) was in 2019 when we stayed for 27 days... and LOVED IT so much we came back this year for another 26 days. It truly felt like coming home. We came to Koh Phangan to kite-board as much as possible, and Summer is literally a short walk away from two wonderful kiting spots. But it's not just that: We loved every part of our Summer experience, from the super friendly staff to our clean & spacious room, comfortable bed, great pillows, good A/C, tasty burgers by the pool and delicious Thai food at Chardonnay restaurant, super relaxing hammocks right on the beach, ... I could go on forever! A special thank-you goes to Zin and Coco from the breakfast restaurant who made sure our gigantic cappuccinos were waiting for us each morning without even having to ask. And of course, there's the one-and-only Michael who personally picked us up at Thong Sala pier with his signature smile and a beautiful sign saying "Welcome back!" It felt wonderful to be welcomed like that! After our second stay, we can't wait to come back to Summer next year — and we want to thank everyone once again for being amazing!

This is a very under rated resort. The staff are very friendly and helpful. As soon as we got there we felt so relaxed. The resort itself is a bit off the main road so it’s a bit of a walk to anything but we just rented a scouter to rip around everywhere so it really wasn’t an issue. It’s actually nice that it’s away from everything as you get a more peaceful experience. The whole theme and landscaping of the resort is beautiful as well as an amazing pool. The restaurant is fantastic and really makes it hard to want to go anywhere else. Overall I had a great experience at this resort and would highly recommend it to anyone that is looking for a relaxing environment, good food, and great staff. Will definitely stay here again.

Great sized villa with private pool, perfect for our family of 6. Good location with short walk to the beach or main shopping strip. The manager, Bob was extremely friendly and helpful at all times.

I spent a few days here during Songkran and enjoyed the experience immensely. The villa I booked had six rooms, a private pool, and and all the amenities for a comfortable stay. In addition, the internet connection was very reliable and this allowed me to work when I wanted/needed to do so. All in all, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here and will likely return in the future.

really friendly staff and crew. the kids loved the pool, especially the smaller kids pool at the restaurant level. quiet area and close (few minutes) walk to beautiful Choengmon Beach. price quality is excellent. everything you need within a reasonable budget, especially when you compare to the resort next door.

Good location, beautiful garden and large, spacious and well maintained houses. The kids loved the pool, the cat and the pool table

Highly recommend. First of all I want to note attentive and responsive kind staff of the resort. Everyone tried to make our stay at the hotel very comfortable, quickly responded to any request. We ve booked three nights and than decided to stay more although the resort was fully booked the manager Istvan did the best to find room for us, special thanks to him. So why we choose to stay for another three weeks at the resort. Great location: beach, restaurants,shops, bank, laundry within short walking distance. The resort is nice, green, very clean, quiet, comfortable. I like authentic design of villas, old fashioned furniture, pictures, everything in excellent condition. It feels real Thailand. At the same time there s everything you need for everyday life. We lived in two-bedroom villa, it s big enough. In addition to the bedrooms there s kitchen, living room and veranda where you can spend a pleasant evening. Comfortable beds, good linen. Pretty new modern air conditioners.The cleaning is every day. Towels where changed every two days. It s available to order breakfast on request. Also there s a pool and small playground in the hotel. And last but not least the best combination of price/quality in the place of Choengmon. Many thanks to Istvan and his team for the warm welcome!

My villa had private pool and public pool which can be access directly from my room On Sunday there is a performance which is next to my room, it’s like a private concert in my backyard pool

Stayed 4 nights in this lovely resort, breakfast was lovely, rooms were spacious and clean, private pool in villa was amazing! Staff were friendly and obliging. Loved the beach front pool with views of the big buddha statue. Highly recommend!

Wonderful, quiet resort. We stayed in the double Arpar room room and it was absolutely beautiful- overlooking the pool and beach. Private plunge pool with lots of privacy on the outdoor seating area.

I loved the private pool, the pool with a view quiet and very nice private suites.

Private pool was fantastic , villa was spotless and only 5 mins walk to fisherman's village

The villa was great, a lot of space for 5 people, private pool that was cleaned every day The staff was very kind and helpful on anything we need Kids activities along the day

Nice clean unit with private pool. Close to Fisherman's Village for shops, restaurants and beach.

The resort is nice and welcoming for children, with 2 pools, a sandbox, a play space with a babysitter, and more. The manager and the staff are so nice and helpful with every little request. There is a resort loving cat, Zoey, a calm dog, and even a turtle. The 3 bedroom villa is beautiful and the pool is great, clean and beautiful. It is important to take into consideration, though, that it is actually 2 different small houses - one with a bedroom, kitchen and living room, and the other with 2 bedrooms connected with the shower. The private pool is between the houses, so there needs to be a lot of attention in case you have young kids. The location is great, 5 minutes to bophut fishemans village.

My daughter had an amazing time with th we kids while I was able to work on my computer,Linn the manager was so kind to her. I was able to chill by the pool while my daughter had the best time of her holiday. Owner really did look after all the small details about having everything ready for our arrival.Baby camera, cot,baby pool,high chair etc. I would definitely recommend for people to come over with kids

Booked a villa with private pool (Beach Front). Room was in tip top condition. Cosy and spacious. Only disappointment was the private pool, wasn't as what i expected. Hotel staff were super friendly and paid attention to fine details. Breakfast was superb with much varities! Would recommend the Deluxe Rooms they have to offer. Overall highly satisfied with my stay at this resort!

OMGGGG this hotel is spectacular!! We stayed over NYE and from the moment we got there, it was luxurious! From service to accommodation to food, by far the best hotel in the islands! We had a private villa with a private pool in the garden section (highly recommend for privacy) and it felt like a movie! From the giant room and beautiful pool and bes and shower...so many amazing amenities! The property is stunning and the beach is so great! The food is unbelievable!! The morning buffet is epic! The hotel staff, to management to attendants and all so lovely! Would stay here in a heartbeat!

The property was beautiful, the staff was phenomenal and the food was amazing. We had a wonderful bungalow with a private pool. The bungalow was big and comfortable and the grounds are just beautifully kept. I think the best part was the staff- they were so friendly, accommodating and helpful- every single one! It was my daughter’s 21at and they surprised her with a piece of cake and cake made of them led and flowers on the bed. We loved staying here!

The Renaissance is well laid out and set among beautiful tropical gardens. We had an ocean villa which had beautiful views looking towards Lamai which we enjoyed whilst in the plunge pool / spa. The resort is a little isolated (when compared with say hotels near Bophut) but there are some options around (such as the Beach Republic and Uncle Rangs) and it is only about a 15-20 walk along to northern end of Lamai. The food at the hotel restaurants was of good quality and the staff are excellent. Overall a very enjoyable stay

Wonderful, wonderful staff throughout the complex. Everyone is so polite, helpful, professional, efficient, friendly - every request is catered for immediately and pleasantly. Absolutely nothing is too much trouble for the hotel team who pride themselves on looking after their guests to the highest standards. We stayed in a garden villa with its own plunge pool. Excellent facilities! Very comfortable accommodation with everything you would want - and much more. The toiletries are all provided on a daily basis, fresh towels and bedding are standard and are all excellent quality. The mini bar, room service and room refreshments are excellent and very good value. The restaurants and pool bar are all fantastic and serve the most delicious food and drinks. The presentation of every meal was impeccable. The Spa is one of the best we’ve ever visited around the world due to the standard of the therapists and their wonderful treatments we enjoyed there daily. They all seemed to have an uncanny understanding of individual clients' muscle aches or mood and instinctively remedy any stress. Housekeeping and the 'nighttime turn down service' is second to none….absolutely excellent! Professional, discreet, efficient and reliable. Cleanliness was superb throughout our stay with daily fresh bedding and huge fluffy towels. The chauffeurs and hotel cars are fantastic, prompt and reliable. Would love to visit the beachside complex again in the future.

Santiburi is probably among the top resorts in Asia. The property is very well maintained and the gardens and landscaping are amazing. The beach and the beach service are top-notch. Our villa with a plunge pool was spacious and comfortable. The breakfast is excellent with a wide selection of European and Asian dishes, tropical fruits, and eggs cooked to order. The service staff are accommodating and attentive.

When we arrived, we received a free upgrade to a reserve pool villa, which was fantastic! The villa looks much newer than the other, more traditional villas, and the pool and the privacy was incredible. Loved it! Absolutely wonderful private beach with clean, fine, white sand and very friendly beach staff. The whole resort is extremely well kept with a lush garden, and it’s very dreamy. Excellent breakfast with lots of options. Fantastic spa and massages! Gym had a lot of equipment, not the latest, but most of what you needed. We had an evening flight back and were able to stay in the villa until the transfer - lovely. Staff was amazing all around.

Absolutely marvellous, peaceful and luxurious. Staying at Santiburi Koh Samui was the highlight of our weeks in Asia, when it comes to hotels. You start to relax the moment you see the facilities, everything is kept up to high standards, everything is spacious and the location is supreme. You're close to the beach and there's a main street not far away, which is a different universe. But you're on vacation, you deserve a break. This contrasts to other options on the East of the island, busier, perhaps fancier but for me nothing but concrete jungles. The beach is narrow but more than sufficient and supremely taken care of by the vast and attentive staff. The staff is another highlight here, you're never waiting long for anything, they're kind and knowledgeable. You also get a client relations person. The facilities are incredible, from a huge shallow pool to massages, restaurants and kids care. As we went off-season, it was luckily quiet. The breakfast is a feast and has everything you can imagine, from Thai specialities to French pastry, also fantastic fresh fruit and juices. The Wi-Fi is faster than most residences in Europe, in excess of 200 mbps, even in a sunbed. There are complimentary items like afternoon tea and ice cream hour. An absolute masterpiece and I look forward to go back!

Staff were amazing, the villa was perfect for family stay , buffet breakfast was great. The beach and pool made it hard to leave the resort. Quieter part of the island and beach was super peaceful. About a $15 grab to the busier parts of Koh Samui, but there are decent cheap restaurants within walking distance. The spa was amazing. Pricey but the best Thai massage my partner has ever had, which is a big call from her.

Lovely location nice and quiet but easy to get to the busy areas like fisherman’s village. Best breakfast we have ever had. Staff are so friendly. Couldn’t fault it. Pool is so big and quiet. Beach is beautiful and the free kayaking and paddle boarding is great.

Exceptional service, great location, beautiful beach, private pool. This place ticks all the boxes.

Private Pool Villa, expensive, but worth every Cent, super service, super kitchen, super team. Really nice beach area and wonderful sunset experiences.

Our ocean view room was wonderful. The private pool was big enough to really swin in it while overlooking the ocean. Breakfast was just amazing. Quality, fresh, choice of everything you may want from asian breakfast to european-american. Service was really special. Everyone was so friendly. The site was really nice. The beach bar was really nice. The lobby bar at night had a trendy DJ and the site was just amazing. I travel a lot for business and leisure and this resort was one of the best I have experienced!

The staff were super friendly especially at the restaurant. Lucas and his team were great The private beach was nice. We had a villa with private pool and beach access which was very convenient The lobby was beautiful. The location was away from the lively areas so keep that in mind but since we spent 2 days in Chaweng and 2 in W we did not mind the peaceful stay The kids went crazy over the free ice cream spots The service and the facilities at W really speak for a 5-star hotel. I hope they keep it up and keep improving

Every room has its own private pool with a great view! Food was good as well!

The view from the room was absolutely stunning. We loved the private pool and the huge bathroom. Felt completely secluded, making it a truly relaxing stay. Comfy bed. Brilliant room. The staff brought us a Conrad bear with our child's name stitched in it's little dressing gown on the first night. A lovely touch and a great surprise for her.

The staff here are excellent they truly go beyond the norm to make you feel relaxed and to have a great time. We were welcomed by New who took good care of my wife and I throughout our trip. This is my second time being in this resort. Coming back to it after 8 years, I was surprised that the condition of the hotel is excellent and they upgraded the facilities at the hotel such as adding a coffee shop, more restaurants and also opening their own farm to have fresh food which was perfect and a job well done. The view is exceptional and the pool and level of privacy is great. The food was tasty and at the buffet they mark dishes with the Halal sign which is excellent. The staff were very attentive to details that even after check out and for our trip to the airport they provided us with a bag of snacks and water which is such a beautiful gesture.

This is the best hotel we have stayed at. The villa was totally amazing, the pool fantastic. The staff from the lobby to the bar exceptional.

Everything! Exceptional staff, the best we’ve come across in our time living in Thailand. Our 2-bed pool villa was incredible. Great facilities and amenities.

Beautiful villa! John was very helpful all the time. He took his time to explain everything. We asked for a bbq and everything was set up por us. Private pool was really nice. Perfect for a romantic get away. 100% recommended. Loved the dog! :)

The villas are excellent: spacious with a private pool and, at the same time, nice views of the jungle and very private. The host is excellent, he can arrange everything for you in Koh Samui.

We had a private pool, which you can use at night. The house was clean. The location was good. The service was really nice and helpful.

Private pool, great bed and amenities. You even get complimatry alcohol scotch, Jin and vodka.

The level of service and luxury is indescribable. The staff is super nice and attentive, giving you attention at all times. The room is cleaned twice a day and is very spacious with a nice private pool. The food at the Japanese style restaurant at the hotel is very high level, some of the best we had in Thailand (albeit being the most expensive too). The breakfast is also exceptional and rich with a large buffet and many complimentary dishes to order. You truly get one of the most comfortable and luxurious hotel experiences you can get with an excellent view on a tropical island.

The hotel's location is amazing, the beach is calm and special, the hotel staff provides the most professional service, caring and pampering in every possible way, the room is clean, tidy and amazing, including a very comfortable bed, a huge shower and a private pool, quick access to the beach, the breakfast is excellent.

The resort itself is beautiful, villas tucked away in a luscious and landscaped jungle environment, we were blown away by the environment. It was quite warm when we visited so we loved the cold plunge pool in our room when not swimming at the beach. Staff were incredibly warm and friendly and our villa host was helpful, welcoming, and made our stay feel special. The nearby village (just a minute or so walk) has plenty of good local restaurants, thai massage, i ice cream and is quite walkable and pleasant.

This resort is located towards the north of the island. It is accessible either by a curvy road which takes around 30 minutes from Tong Sala, the main town or directly by speedboat from Koh Samui. The resort is simply the paradise and is in harmony with the flora and fauna of the island. The staff from the reception, to the bistro and from the house keeping crew to the massage therapists were nice and lovely. The breakfast was tasty and delicious. There's a lot of variety of meals and drinks suitable for every taste. I upgraded to an ocean view suite with a private pool which was stunning and impressively amazing. The spa is beautiful and the massages were excellent. The room is spacious modern with all the amenities needed. You can request a different type of pillow or anything else that is suitable to your needs. For sure it's not a cheap place to stay but it's worth it to spoil or pamper yourself at least once in your lifetime by enjoying some massages or take a swim in the private pool or into the crystal waters of the beach or simply enjoying the charming beach with the views while having your morning coffee. If you're looking for the paradise and enjoy a relaxing holiday this is the right place. I wish I could stay there forever. This resort and Koh Phangan are simply pure love! If I have a chance I would love to come back and be pleased to do so.

Amazing few days, villa with private pool is well worth it - room and bathroom are beautiful and pool is lovely. Staff are great and F&B can't be faulted - wonderful stay, will be back!

Really nice hospitality and the villas are amazing specially with the plunge pool. Staff is amazing. Manager named PUI specially came to drop us to our room A little far from chewang street. Would definitely come again.

Amazing staff and great Villa with private pool. Beach service and especially the staff at the lobby was very attentive.Beach could be nicer but we saw pictures before.

Beautiful setting on a quiet side of the beach. Friendly, helpful staff are always on hand to help out. Only a five minute drive from the main Chaweng strip. We had a plunge pool room which had a lovely outside space.

Perfect getaway with a wonderful view. Away from hustle and bustle but driver on hand at all times to take you where ever you wanted to go. Beautiful and clean. The private pool was a bonus. Fantastic staff who were so helpful.

The private pool and the location was great

We loved our stay at Monkey Flower Villa, our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. We did wonder how we’d manage to get about as it’s set back from the town, up a very steep hill, but huge thank you to Steve who was always there to pick us up and drop us off! The view was incredible, loved the private pool, and all the gorgeous details in how the rooms are created and decorated. Housekeeping were amazing and the place was super clean. There loads to do within a short distance on the island.

Everything was fantastic, however, the best part of Monkey Flower Villas is the staff! Located just out of Sairee Village, with amazing views, a private pool, well appointed furniture and open floor plan! We loved having a free ride to and from locations on the island and the staff gave great recommendations! The cleaning crew came daily and kept the Villa spotless!

We were given the most amazing sea view room with private pool, the staff couldn’t do enough for us, nothing was too much trouble. they made our holiday fantastic.

Excellent service all round. I stayed in a private pool beach villa which is located only a few steps from the beach as the name suggests. The villa was spacious and very comfortable. It was a fair distance from the hotel lobby, restaurant, bar and lounge area but a buggy service was available to take you to and from the room to the central area. There was also an option of climbing over 300 steps including crossing a suspension bridge with great ocean views which I liked doing. The breakfast buffet was very good with a great selection of choices. There were amazing sunset views from the lounge where a good selection of canapés and drinks were provided. All in all a great choice for a relaxing beach holiday.

Im going to be brutally honest here.Firstly the staff were all of the highest calibre in particular Tangmo, she was exceptional and had a smile to light up any room, John the driver was so very nice and helpful also, credit to both.The price was far too high I think.Even though I had paid for bed and dinner, the menu was restricted to what we could choose and we were charged even for drinking water!!! We had to have maintainence out twice as the garden jacuzzi wasnt working,the back gate was slatted,meaning(and I tested this) you could see right into our room and private pool, so privacy was non-existant. The rooms were kept spotless and my step daughter loved the spa bath, which she enjoyed while Papa enjoyed a beer on the beach.Would I revisit?, possibly but not at that price, and possibly alone next time.Please pass on my regards and thanks to all in particular Tangmo and John.

Excellent all round, from the staff to the food to the rooms. We visited with friends and we all had beachfront pool villas. They were excellent, well appointed, large and with a good size pool. The staff we excellent. The property is built on a step hill. We thought that would be a problem but were pleasantly surprised. The buggie transport service they run is excellent and it was easy to get from one place to the other if need be. Also walking up and down the hill was pleasant as well. The property is in a remote area so if you want to go to a town or markets its quite a way. We did a couple of times over the week we were there and found it easy to book a Grab (Uber) who arrived for pick up very quickly. The hotel also runs a shuttle service daily as well. There is a beach out from which isn't really swimmable (well not for me anyway) but nice to have a stroll along. There are many pools to choose from. There is one adult pool which is beautiful but unfortunately was often fairly busy (maybe in need of more loungers as there is plenty of space). All round service was fantastic in ALL areas of the resort. This place is obviously managed well. The food offering is wide and varied and all of a very good standard. Breakfast is spectacular. We had Club rooms and enjoyed the Club benefits. All and all, we were all very happy and will be happy to return.

Arrived at night after an eye-opening drive, with cars and motor bikes driving with NO lights and motor bikes overtaking on the inside from the airport. However, the stress we were feeling quickly dissipated when we arrived at the Intercontinental, when we were met, with happy smiling staff and a lovely refreshing welcome drink. We were then whisked away to our ocean view room, which could only be described as spectacular. Very spacious with quality fittings, a rain shower, and, an enormous bath, and an amazing view over the ocean, which we discovered next morning. Over the next 6 days, we enjoyed fabulous food and drinks and service from the staff that you could only believe possible if you had stayed here before. There are 2 main pools and 4 other pools scattered through the resort. The pools are spotless and, luckily, for us nearly empty every day. We had a fabulous time and would like to especially thank Por, Kae & Shawn (at the pool bar) for all the laughs, smiles, and unbelievable service and for helping us with our photos, and making our stay so extra special, and with so many 555555's, (Por knows what I'm talking about) .. 555555 .. and also Art & Atom with his lovely 'Movies' english accent. We, the Potter's ( Sue & Harry's Dad), will never forget you guys .. and WE WILL BE BACK ..

Beautiful 2 bedroom villa with private pool, very clean and comfortable. Grounds were stunning. Delicious breakfast included and staff were lovely.

Villa will a private pool is the best option if you could get it for the family with kids

Very nice stay in Chuz villas, the little house is very comfortable and clean and new. Staff is very nice and the private pool is best.

We booked the 2 bedroom villa with private pool for 4 nights and it exceeded our expectations when looking at value for money. Upon arrival, check-in was facilitated by Kay who, for the rest of our stay, did everything to make us feel at home. She's really a great host who makes the whole experience an A+++.

Paradise. we have been backpacking for the last 6 weeks and needed a relaxing night. this was perfect. the room was amazing and had a private plunge pool. room is huge and worth every penny. Victoria the host consistently went out her way to accommodate us and her English is incredible. Could not recommend this place enough.

Second time we stayed at the hotel, and we enjoyed every moment of it. Our room had a private pool on the 3rd floor and we enjoyed the ocean view we had. Beach lovely as always and good service in all the restaurants and bars. Thanks for taking good care of us. Special thanks to Romi!!!!

What an amazing place with the best most friendly staff I have come across. Just sad I only had 3 days. The rooms plunge pool is the best way to start the day. Also close enough to the bars etc.

Most beautiful place I have ever been. We love the staff, the beach, and our own personal pool was perfect.

very satisfied by the location of the resort , the amazing kindness of all the staff, the beautiful beach there like a private beach, the view from the room , the private swimming pool in the room, the terrace , the lobby bar view, ,the food of restaurants there, the decoration of the resort and the rooms , the temperature of the pool and the private pool , the jaccuzzi

We had a standard room and were extremely happy with the size and comfort. Having your own private plunge pool was a great addition. The resort was extremely quiet during our stay which was surprising given the great beach location. The staff were extremely courteous and helpful, although service in the restaurants could be better. The main restaurant which specialises in Thai food was great, however the Italian restaurant meals were a bit lacklustre. The day spa experiences were wonderful and I would highly recommend this to guests.

The hotel has a very luxurious and modern design, and self-sufficient, with it's own private pool and kitchenette. I would recommend this hotel for people who want to get away from the city and relax.

Wow, where to start!! This hotel was amazing. The staff were brilliant, very nice and helpful. The room was fantastic, very spacious and clean. The private pool incredible! Would definitely stay again.

We loved everything about this place. Super comfy bed and pillows. Private pool was amazing. Netflix and food delivery was nice. Excellent breakfast. Perfect stay - highly recommend

It's a perfect stay. Room is as nice as picture they posted online. Private pool is so big and the view is awesome. Food quality is good.

Best place for Honeymoon. Private pool villa was perfect for spending time with my wife. Nice view, clean room, outstanding staffs.

Our stay at Conrad Koh Samui was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and seamless hospitality. The private pool villa offered breathtaking panoramic ocean views — especially stunning during sunset. Every detail was thoughtfully designed, from the luxurious bedding to the spacious bathroom with its incredible tub overlooking the sea. The breakfast spread was outstanding, featuring both local Thai favorites and international dishes

This resort has such a excellent services, the staff is very friendly and kind - the sunset here is absolutely stunning, It's probably the most beautiful view I ever had. The resort location is quiet and peaceful. The rooms is amazing by the infinity endless private pool with ocean view. The cleanliness is great. Thanks to all the staff that's makes the experience is more memorable.

The best first hotel to stay in on our first trip to Thailand. Pinky was incredibly helpful. She organised taxis and scooter hire. Breakfasts were delicious. Having our own private pool was such a treat. Thank you very much Pinky and brilliant staff!

Pinky was absolutely amazing she was so welcoming and helpful. We booked the Royal Private Pool Suite and were upgraded to a 3 bedroom villa with a private pool. The villa was immaculate and had everything you could possibly need. The pool area was fantastic with an outdoor dining table and lots of sun loungers. We loved the high ceiling in the entrance hall and it was very tastefully decorated. We had an absolutely amazing stay and we cannot wait to return to this property again!

The property was stunning. A very large villa surrounded by a big garden and beautiful private pool. It was equipped with everything we could possibly need and was incredibly comfortable and luxurious. The staff looked after us so well. Thank you so much to Nisah and Francisco for their kindness. Nisah was a very professional and friendly manager and was always available for whatever we needed and we are very grateful to have experienced staying in such an amazing estate.

We stayed in the honey moon suite and initially booked for a seven night stay, it was so lovely we extended it by another four nights. The breakfast was fantastic and the staff were really amazing and gave us a 5 star treatment. The room was extremely comfortable and spacious and absolutely spotless and the private pool and jacuzzi bath made our stay even better. I would highly recommend this estate and will definitely be coming back again.

Beautiful rooms. Spotlessly clean, classy and comfortable. We had our own large private pool which added so much to our stay. Khun Pinky could not have been more kind and helpful during breakfast and throughout our stay. We were visiting for a part of our 2 week honeymoon and they made us feel so special and extreme welcome. We should return with family as the villa is large and can host large families.

These wonderful experiences because of wonderful staff and amazing huge private pool. Spa staff were amazing too. And all the reception staff were helpful and caring. Thank you, we will come back to stay again ❤️

We have had a most wonderful, relaxing experience staying for a week in a pool villa. The room was thoughtfully designed, well serviced and private - perfect for spending time alone together and relaxing. The property has a pool with a swim up bar and gardens that are beautifully landscaped and right on the beach, with an outlook over the sea to Koh Phangan and Koh Tao. Lovely sea breezes :) The restaurant has a great range of delicious options both Thai and other cuisines, as well as a comprehensive drinks menu. The Thai buffet evening with Thai dancers and Bbq buffet with spectacular fireshow are great value and not to be missed! The breakfast options are very substantial and cater to all tastes and needs. This property is in a peaceful part of Maenam with ammenities nearby or a short taxi tide away. Perfect if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle and just unwind. The staff are amazing, so lovely and helpful, they made our experience a joy every day. Tien, Pink, Prewa, Boss, Ann - all of the incredible staff are the heart and soul - We will miss your smiles and can’t wait to come back for another lovely holiday with you!

What a beautiful hotel! I booked the Ocean Suite with private hot tub on balcony and it was great! The bed was comfortable, and the view was incomparable! It was a small trek uphill, but totally worth it! The room was small, but very nice. The hot tub was small and my husband, who is 6'2" had a difficult time fitting into the tub, but it had hot water and the bubbles felt great! The mini fridge did not keep things very cold, however. The hotel has a beautiful pool area, but the drinks at the swim up bar are very expensive. The restaurant is good, a bit pricey also. Had the breakfast buffet and it was good, had snack one afternoon with spring rolls, chicken satay skewers, these little fried crab cakes. It was all tasty! Also had dinner one night and the salmon over spinach with mango salsa and mango puree was really good! Although service was very, very slow. My husband was completely done eating and my entree had not even come out yet. But they did have live music and a fire show, so there was something to see. Overall, a beautiful hotel with mostly great service. It is a quiet area, so if you are looking for things to do, stay in Fisherman's instead.

We've just arrived home after staying 5 nights here in a Beachfront Pool Villa, Room 316. The room was clean, had a beautiful four-poster king sized bed which was super comfy with a large bath tub. We used our private pool everyday, although small it provided instant relief from the heat. We had 2 salas/covered deck areas to relax in, and the lovely beach was 30m from our front door. The staff were so friendly and did whatever they could to be helpful! Drinks weren't cheap as it is a resort, but we took advantage of the Happy Hours (12-1pm at the Pool Bar, 6-7pm at the Restaurant Bar). Try the coconut smoothies and the Margaritas! We loved relaxing around the pool as it was never busy and plenty of sun loungers, with great views of the ocean. Generally good food and great service at the restaurant. We really enjoyed the breakfast buffet options. We opted for a Private Dinner on our deck 1 night to celebrate our 9th wedding anniversary, and we enjoyed the tasty seafood and bbq meat platters and salads! The setup was magical - candles and flowers everywhere, the staff were fantastic making it a special night for us. We liked being away from busy Chaweng, we hired a car for a day to explore the island and we also used the free shuttle to Fisherman's Village a few times. On our last day we took part in the resort's Tree Planting Project, planting a tree in their Organic Garden leaving a sign with our names. We loved it at Fairhouse & will definitely be back one day!

Another amazing stay at Amari Koh Samui! The hotel is better than ever with the new addition of the 3rd swimming pool, the hotel now have an impressive 3 pools meaning you’ll always find a quieter pool should this be your preference. A special mention to Noung and Zeed, they do a great job around the pool ensuring fresh towels are always at hand and cleared away, also serving guests with drinks and food around the pool. The room was lovely and very well looked after by the housekeeping team every day. The breakfast choice is second to none with a huge selection of options catering to all nationalities. Food and drink at Amaya bar was always delicious, more so with the amazing and friendly staff, everyone was super friendly but too many to mention every single person however, a special shoutout to Penn, Jimmy, Takky and honey, they really do Amari proud and a great asset to the team. Front desk staff and the porters were also super helpful and friendly, especially with assisting myself and my husband when I took unwell and had to spend some time in hospital, a special mention to Saowalak, Kit , pinkky and Beer, thank you so much for everything ❤️ Lastly thank you to the whole team at Amari, including the new manager Alexander, when I was sick the team went above and beyond with the care and attention they showed to me and my husband. We look forward to seeing our 2nd family again next year ❤️

As this was our first time in Thailand we had no idea what to expect. Right from the start when we arrived. It was first class treatment. Each staff member we met thought the stay were amazing. Plenty of sunbeds around the pool, also on the beach. Breakfast was out of this world (4 courses I had) no that's not me being greedy . There was such a vast variety . I just had to have a little try of almost everything. Eggs to order, fried poached and omelette. Lunch and dinner menu was lovely too. Loves that the waiter came round the beds to take your drinks order. That's what holiday is all about . Relaxing and having fun. We stayed across the road. Yes at first I thought this was going to be a problem. Not at all didn't even notice to be honest . There is 2 pools on this side . I thought we would miss all the action being over the road . Not really , this pool was quiet and relaxing. The chill pool id say and we enjoyed it a few times. There was also someone there with a drinks cart (drinks on ice) So no problem if you was thirsty. Our room was lovely . A little seating area outside too. Tea coffee and 2 bottles of water free each day. Everything you need was there including, safe, iron and ironing board. Would I stay again . Without a doubt .

First things first, hotel set in beautiful grounds, fronting a white sandy beach. Three swimming pools, superb customer service and staff, particularly those in the restaurant and bar. I rarely mention names but Pen stands out as a fabulous host. Please be aware that if you are travelling as a couple, the hotel is geared more toward families than romantic or intimate settings. There are no separate adult areas, and all three pools are used by children which can be noisy! As always some families are better behaved than others and this isn’t the fault of the hotel- obviously- but the hotel could do more to encourage quiet areas. For example, why not make the middle garden pool child free and place a bar there, instead of at the pool clearly designed for children. It was unfortunate that in the bar and restaurant some guests thought it acceptable to hold loud speaker conversations on their phones, or sit their children with noisy iPads or phones. This is more a measure of some people’s ignorance, but the hotel staff should/could do more to stop this poor behaviour. To finish on a high, the food in the restaurant was superb, not particularly expensive, nice portion sizes, fresh, authentic and very tasty. Would I go back? Yes I would :-)

From the second we arrived (albeit minus suitcases) the staff couldn’t do enough. We checked in, welcomed with a lovely and very blue glass of something lovely and sweet. We explained about the suitcases and they got right on in. The hotel is on both sides of, what is quite a busy road, but this isn’t a problem, the hotel have crossing guards which will stop the traffic and make sure you get across safely whether on foot or in a golf buggy. One golf buggy ride later and we got to our room, which was beautiful with a beautiful balcony overlooking a swimming pool. The next day and breakfast, omg what an amazing selection you couldn’t want for anything. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t too good,wet and warm but we still ended up in the pool. It seemed as soon as both cases showed up the sun came out, time was spent by the pool and on the beach, the beach was perfect and so clean, yes there were looky looky men but that’s fine. The hotel has happy hour from 4-6 every day. The restaurant at the hotel is amazing and the food perfect. But what really made the holiday was the staff, Mac (the man who saved the holiday by sorting out our cases), Jimmy at breakfast, and Zeed, Sea, Honey, Preacher to name but a few, sorry if I’ve missed anyone you were all amazing. If you don’t stay at this wonderful hotel or visit the restaurant or bar then you are mad. Please come to the hotel on the island in the land of happy smiles.

Second time we have been here within a year. Location is just on the outskirts of main area of town just a 10-15 minute walk away. Rooms are spacious and comfy king size beds. I think we got value for our money, particularly with the great selection on offer for breakfast. Hotel staff are so friendly and helpful. Hotel grounds are kept immaculate with a team of gardeners out there every day attending to the beautiful surrounds of the very green gardens and sweeping up dropped leaves and petals. I didn't have any problems with noise though my husband said the people in the room next to us woke him up in the early hours of the morning having an argument but I did not hear a thin. It was lovely to see some of the same faces as our last stay like Penn, May, Noung and Zeed. Always on the go these 4 always working hard and looking after the guest's. It was lovely to see Oaf in the garden pool bar again, another one and his tea.who is always looking after guest's around the pools. We had a couple of messages at the Breeze spa upstairs in the hotel, it was a great experience and Dao and Siew were fantastic. Perfect amount of pressure, along with the surrounding, decor and atmosphere during massage made the whole experience most enjoyable (would definitely recommend the Breeze scrub package). All in all great time had yet again and will definitely be back xx.

It’s always so hard to leave this hotel. Wonderful white sand beach, you can swim out 50 meters and still touch the bottom, modern rooms and facilities. Lovely staff and spa. I look forward to the next visit.

It was certainly more than what we would normally spend at a resort/hotel. However, Centara Reserve is worth every cent. Check-in was seamless, with great service from Michelle, who kindly allowed us to look at a Pool Access room and a Reserve Ocean King room before making our decision. The additional space in the Reserve Ocean King helped make our decision easier. The room layout, bedding and huge bathroom were outstanding. Michelle continued to take interest in our stay, providing us tips, and even delivered a thoughtful Papaya and Mango platter to our room after, in passing, telling her they were our favourite tropical fruit. A simple gesture, but something which will provide a memory. We only used the adult pool, which was long enough for lap swimming, but also wide enough for an enjoyable swim. A big tick to both "Tom Cruise" and "Best", who looked after us around the pool. They made the pool experience so much more enjoyable. The food and service at all the restaurants was excellent, and priced comparable to a hotel of this calibre. Lastly, but not least, a big thanks to the housecleaning team, particularly Bee, who beamed an infectious smile and personality.

Just returned from a 10 night stay at this beautiful resort. From the beach to the pools to the rooms to food everything was fabulous. Great position at the quieter end of Chaweng Beach but was really easy to jump on a Songthaew into central samui which is vibrant and busy and has great shopping. The pools and beach were fantastic i even went in the sea (something I never do ) We had a pool access room which was lovely but we actually didn't use it as much as I thought we would. The room itself was well laid out the bed was a little on the hard side and the pillows a little too soft but that's personal preference it didn't affect our stay at all. The breakfast was wonderful plenty of choice even for me as gluten free. The people inside the resort and outside are just the most wonderfully friendly and always with a smile. All in all absolutely loved this resort would absolutely not hesitate to come back and only 15 minutes from the airport which is a bonus.

From the moment we arrived, we knew this was going to be a special stay. The hotel is truly the best in Samui — spacious rooms, an incredibly comfortable bed, and a spotless, beautifully designed space that makes you feel instantly relaxed. The atmosphere is both luxurious and peaceful, with every little detail thought out perfectly. The staff are beyond welcoming and attentive — always smiling and ready to help with anything. The breakfast selection was amazing, and the facilities, from the pool to the beach area, were exceptional. We were delighted to be upgraded to a private pool room, which made our honeymoon even more unforgettable. The hotel also offered us a complimentary late checkout, which was such a thoughtful touch that let us enjoy every last moment. A huge heartfelt thank you to Jean, Ai, and Michelle for making our stay so warm, personal, and memorable. You truly went above and beyond — we can’t wait to come back!

Yet another excellent holiday in this amazing resort Quick shout out to White, Mam, Pooky all the pool team and the complete organisation White went out of her way to ensure every this was perfect Mam exceptional lady, cheerful and so happy to spend time every morning chatting while we were at breakfast The pool team led by Paul are an exceptional set of guys who looked after my partly disabled wife, each morning when we arrived at the pool/beach they were like a F1 team, moving in to get her to our sunbeams, ensure she was comfortable through out the day Pooky, always cheerful dispite her very quiet nature and asking for any comments on things that could make our visit better ! Over all another great visit Minor comment for Neil, have a look at the bath towels , maybe ned to invest in replacements as they are starting to look a bit ragged !

We loved our stay at Bo Phut- we had garden plunge pool Vila which was beautiful. An amazing resort, quiet, extremely friendly staff, a fantastic breakfast buffet with very attentive staff. A nice pool with friendly staff and very on the beach so you have options for both! A quick walk to the fisherman’s village or locally for meals and drinks which makes it very convenient. We would definitely come back in the future!

Room was very spacious and comfortable. Loved our private pool, lush surroundings and very private. Great pool and easy access to the beach. Walking distance to the Village Market which was buzzing at night with many wonderful dining options and shopping. Wonderful staff Will definitely be back Thank you Bo Phut for a wonderful holiday

This is a really beautiful resort but the staff are what make it really special. They are so friendly, helpful and really go above and beyond in terms of service. The wonderful Jenny checked us in and couldn’t have been more helpful. She organised a short notice local meal including transfer to and from the hotel and she also sorted out our transfer to the boat the next day. She was so kind to our son and made him feel very special. We were lucky enough to get one of the garden plunge pool villas. It was spacious and private, a very short walk to the pool and the beach. We only stayed for one night but I would definitely go back. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We really loved our stay here. I’d thoroughly recommend it. It is so calm and peaceful. The service here is the best we’ve received. Everybody, without fail, were incredibly charming and helpful. The room was lovely, spacious & private. They were aware it was our anniversary and decorated the bed, bathroom and gave us a lovely bear as a keepsake. We ate breakfast every day. So much choice and it was tasty and plentiful. There was an egg station and he cooked our eggs to perfection every day! We had several lunches and they were all delicious. The service was sublime, While there is a sign saying no reserving sun beds the pool man was an angel and saved our favourite beds every day. The cold towels and fruit were lovely and given to those at the pool and on the beach. They are happy to serve drinks and food at the pool and on the beach. The pool was a perfect temperature and depth. The hotel is straight on to the beach. I loved being able to go in and out of the sea throughout the day. The location is perfect for restaurants with the Fisherman’s Village just a few minutes away. If you are staying in Bophut, you must stay here!.

This was our 5th time to the hotel and it has remained the perfect hotel for couples, every member of staff from the gardeners to the management are a credit to the hotel. They smile and help without question and nothing is too much trouble, this is led by Mr. Nick and all the management team who are always approachable and always make contact as you walk through the hotel or are seating by the pool. The rooms no matter what part of the resort you stay in are fantastic and the grounds and gardens a calm oasis after being out the the hustle of Fisherman's Village just 10 mins walk away. Food and drink are amazing whether at breakfast, lunch or dinner, pool area is brilliant and beds and towels by the pool are plentiful. We will be back home to our favorite hotel as soon as we can Best Wishes to everyone at Bophut Resort and Spa Paul and Julia

Great stay! Loved our private pool. The property is a little dated and could probably use a spruce up in some areas but the views, the staff, and the location make it outstanding.

We had an amazing stay at Sandalwood resort. The property was sunny with gorgeous views and our room was spectacular. We had our own private pool too! Our favourite spot on our whole trip through Thailand. The only issue was had was that the hotel was right up a difficult hill to drive/walk so many taxis wouldn’t come up the steep hill to get us or stop us off and we had to hike it… it was a tough walk up. The hotel sometimes offered us their taxi/truck but there were extra costs. Overall an amazing place though.

Absolutely everyone should consider staying here with in Koh Samui especially during the rainy season. We got the private pool which was incredible and the view was wonderful. It felt so fancy and the hotel itself had everything you needed on site. Everyone who works here was so kind. I’m truly grateful for their help in sending back my left behind and for their hospitality with every interaction I had with them.

Sandalwood is an amazing place to stay! It is a bit inconvenient due to the location being on top of a very steep hill but the views are worth it. Staff was incredible and made it very easy to book taxis down and back to the rest of the island. Everything is managed over WhatsApp. The private pool we had was very nice. The room is a bit outdated and we had a bit of a bug issue but nothing we couldn’t manage. Restaurant is just okay. Would definitely stay here again for the views alone!

Wow! The views from this property are spectacular! It is up a VERY steep hill so walking anywhere was not an option for us. They do have a ride option to and from the closest beaches/markets for a small fee, although we were only there a night and stayed put to enjoy our room's private pool and the views. We ordered room service for lunch and dinner, and both were great. There was plenty of space in our clean 2 bedroom villa--2 bathrooms, a kitchen with a refrigerator and a microwave, a living room and 2 spacious bedrooms, along with our own private pool. We wish that we could have stayed longer. What a beautiful property!

The room is comfortable and very clean. The private pool in front of the sea is a relaxing moment after a day on the beach. It is also situated near by a lot of beaches and restaurants. Last but not least the staff was so kind and help us every time.

Everything: from the location to the villa layout, private pool and overall cleanliness.

The decor, the view and the private pool were my favourites!

The villa is amazing and truely a hidden gem. It is ideal for people looking for peace, quiet and privacy. The villa is brand new and housekeeping ensures it to be held in spotless condition during the stay. Washing service for a small fee, motorbike for rent and snorkling equipment for free is available. The view and the private pool makes for a memorable experience.

We really enjoyed our stay at Mayara villas because of the very beautiful villa and private pool. The owner of the villas were also really friendly and helpful. It was easy to rent a scooter from them to cruise around the island. They were always there for questions and other requests. We would definitely stay there again.

We have been upgraded to the 2 bedroom villa with private pool. The villa is in great condition, clean, spacious and beautiful. The beds are comfy and we have good sleep every single night. There are different varieties for breakfast everyday. The staffs are extremely friendly and helpful. It is also a nice easy stroll along the beach to the famous fisherman village. It is also close to 7-11, mini big c and ATM machine. I would strongly recommend this resort.

We had 14 nights at this resort staying in a beachfront villa with private pool. View was amazing from the room and the pool. Housekeeping staff were excellent along with all the staff from the spa girls to restaurant staff, specially Doy he seemed to always be there and always had a smile. Good variety for breakfast, good selection for evening dinner. Perfect location walking distance to cafes, restaurants and fisherman’s village for the market nights. Lovely beach to swim in. Downside … we have been to Samui many times and we have never in counted so many loud obnoxious families, the parents were so loud so the children were also, they had no respect for anyone else, they just yelled, screamed and push passed. We spoke to other guests from all over the world and they all said the same thing about this certain nationality. Some guests spoke to management about the issue but their hands are tied. We found that most resorts at this time had the same issues. If not for this issue Peace resort would have been a most peaceful holiday.

We stayed in one of the beachfront villa’s with an excellent private pool. We had a fantastic sea view and very easy access to the beach. Although, the room was not very private, with people on the beach able to look in to the room! The staff were friendly and accommodating to our requests, however, as Muslims, the hotel did not offer an appetising halal breakfast and is an area that could be improved, especially as we gave advance notice of our dietary requirements. The Villa itself was big, comfortable and clean. The hotel is also very child friendly and has a gym, games room and spa for adults to enjoy. Overall a good 4 star hotel!

This was our second stay at Peace resort in the last 8 months and loved it. Main pool was being renovated so not many guests which suited us as we had a pool villa on the beach. 2 weeks was not long enough. Planning for next year already could easily spend a month in this villa. All the staff are fantastic from housekeeping, pool, restaurant, bar, reception etc. location is excellent walking distance to fisherman village and lots of little restaurants nearby. One night there was a wedding on the beach so we had a great view from the restaurant of a fire show and fireworks. Also thank you for the birthday cake it was a nice surprise. Once again Thank you to all the staff. We will be back!

We did not want to leave this resort! The reception area was stunning and we had a very warm welcome and easy check in. The Bungalows are lovely. Ours was perhaps slightly worn in places (chips on tiled floor etc) but otherwise beautiful! We were fairly close to the pool and bar but were not disturbed by noise at all. All staff were incredible. The breakfast was amazing, we really enjoyed the egg and pancake stations! We made use of happy hour most days and thought the prices were reasonable for Koh Samui, we didn’t eat dinner in the hotel but menu looked reasonably priced. Pool and beach areas are amazing. People definitely do reserve their sun loungers which is annoying but we found a couple together each day despite not rushing down to reserve our own! If we come back, will stay here again and would definitely recommend Bophut and Peace Resort to family and friends.

We’ve just had a fantastic 12 night stay at the CODE Samui hotel. The hotel itself was great with a spacious 1 bedroom room overlooking the infinity pool with views of the sea. The room was well equipped with kitchen including fridge/freezer, excellent air conditioning, tv with loads of international channels, separate sitting area with large sofa, a bathroom with rain fall shower and a big balcony with seats. As we were there to visit our son who is travelling, the hotel accommodated an additional bed for only 10000baht per day (~£25/day) so he could stay with us. The restaurant was reasonably priced compared to outside restaurants but when we wanted to venture out, the hotel offered a free shuttle to the road at the beach (as the hotel is up a hill) which was no more than 10 mins wait. The infinity pool was great and the fitness area was superb with gym, plunge pool, sauna & steam room. The one thing that makes a great hotel excellent is the people and all the staff (housekeepers, waiters/waitresses, reception etc) clearly take pride in their jobs and it made our guest experience even better. Special mention to Lay, Da, Som and Ben who looked after us every day from breakfast through to dinner. We’ll definitely be coming back to Koh Samui and the CODE hotel. Iain, Lynn & Jack (Sunrise 208)

Code is an excellent hotel - we stayed for 5 nights for our honeymoon. It is located in a quieter part of Ko Samui i.e. Boput/Mae Nam beach. We checked in a couple hours before the start time and were allowed a late checkout by Max - the very resourceful hotel manager. The hotel itself is very clean and has a pool table/tennis court. We took a 1 bed room and our room had a nice kitchenette with all utensils, a couch, a TV and a spacious balcony with loveseat. The breakfast had a good selection and the hotel has something special for evenings almost every day. One day we were invited to a cocktail event with free thai massages. The swimming pool and sauna area is wonderful and its a great place to hang out. They let you use the pool after hours if you're being respectful. As some reviews say, the hotel is a little away from Chaweng Beach (the touristy area). For us it wasn't a problem at all - Chaweng is too touristy and Code is nearer to better beaches. The hotel is on an steep uphill and is ~20 mins of brisk walk from the main street outside. However, if you're in Ko Samui - a scooter is very recommended and almost needed. If you've a scooter, then you dont really worry about the climb. The hotel is a bit pricey for the scooter/taxi rates - atmost by 30% or so. You can find better deals on taxi/scooter at the main street. Everything else at Code was great. We loved staying there and hope you will too.

My boyfriend and I stayed for 4 nights in March for my birthday and had the most AMAZING stay! It is perfect. From the moment we walked in we felt like we were in Paradise. We stayed in room 407 on the top floor and had the most stunning views. Rooms are very new, modern, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Exactly like the pictures. Really nice to have a kitchen in the room and we loved the day bed on the balcony. The infinity pool is beautiful and we never had a problem getting seats by the pool which is often a problem at other hotels. Staff were so friendly and nothing was ever too much to ask. Max was awesome and always around to help with anything you could possibly need. We hired a motorbike from the hotel for 300 baht a day (about $12AUD) which i would recommend as Code is set off the road, it is a bit too far to walk to the beach etc but only a couple of minutes by motorbike. Fun and easy way to get around and see a bit of Koh Samui. The beach is stunning and so clean and there are plenty of restaurants and places to get massages which are only a couple of minutes away by motorbike. The food at the restaurant is beautiful! More pricey than restaurants on the road but definitely worth it as the quality is so much better. All in all we had the most amazing stay and wish we could've stayed longer! Would definitely recommend to any couples or honeymooners! We will be back!! :)

Had a fantastic two-week stay at Code. Loved the design of the place, but the staff just make it perfect - warm, helpful, friendly and fun - they are really special. The suite was clean, sleek and spacious with a very comfortable king-sized bed as well as living area and kitchen. Beautiful view from the the hillside across the bay, and the infinity pool is a great place to hangout - the cocktails here are master-class! Very good breakfast - buffet plus al a carte included in room price. All day/evening dining at the restaurant too - excellent Thai and European dishes at decent prices. We loved being perched on the hill and then taking a ride to other parts of the island - felt like the best of both worlds as you could chill and mingle at the hotel and then explore other spots. Code also have a beach-club Chi which is very cool and a lot of fun - guests get a discount there. Again the pool, vibe, food and service is brilliant. One of the reasons we booked Code was that it has a tennis court which we used a lot, but there were so many other things that made us love our stay and we'll definitely be coming back.

Our room was lovely with a sofa, kitchen and tv. We had a fantastic view, on the top floor of the hotel – but all the rooms had a lovely view. The restaurant was comfortable and the food was good, although the Thai dishes could have been a bit spicier. I think they had toned down the spices for Western visitors. The pool was lovely and quiet in the mornings, but was ruined in the afternoon when the Chinese groups tended to arrive back. The extended families shouted from one end of the pool, allowed their children to use the rescue floats and skyped loudly, ruining the ambience. This hotel would be perfect if it was for couples/adults only. The staff were great and they tried to teach us some Thai phrases which we tried on the locals. Everyone loved the fact that we tried, even if they did sometimes have a good laugh at our poor efforts. Max, the manager helped us out enormously when we found that our next hotel reservation had been cancelled without our knowledge. He contacted the next hotel and arranged for a room to be held for us until we could sort out the problem with the booking company. We would thoroughly recommend this hotel.

We loved The Rock Samui! The room was great. We were on the upper balcony and had an amazing view. The beach wasn’t deep enough for swimming when we were there but we made use of the pools. Both were great. We were able to use the villa pool which had amazing views. The staff was very attentive and helpful. The breakfast was great. They have terrific coffee. It was quiet. It was near some good restaurants and close to the beach towns. We used a motor bike to get around. We also got massages everyday across the street, which was the spa the hotel recommended and the staff there did a great job.

•Unbelievably nice and welcoming owner/staff, haven’t seen someone so polite, friendly and kind before. Always smiling. Thank you Jerome! Keep it going! •Very nice hotel with a good vibe •Absolutely clean rooms •Free little extra bed for kid •Free coffee(latte/cappuccino) pancakes and other snacks in the morning •Some biscuits and bananas at the lobby for free. •Can use kitchen and playroom for kids. •Nice sea view from lobby and bungalows. •Thin pool towels with beach bag. •Nice clean pools and beach on the property. •Very chill and quiet place. Very good to sleep.

One of the best hotels we have stayed in, in Thailand, has a great pool and jacuzzi area as well. Just down from the room is an amazing little beach which we had all to ourselves. You can swim in the sea or use the kayaks that are there for guests. The hotel staff were super friendly, giving you advice on how to get about the island, what to go and see, and even helped us book our taxi when we were leaving. You get offered a complimentary breakfast every day, which was freshly made to order. We had the pancakes and the waffles with a fresh fruit smoothie each time. It was really nice!! Would highly recommend anyone going to Koh Samui to stay at the Rock Samui, I know we will, when we come back again on our next trip!! 10/10

The service provided by the staff and most of all Jerome were excellent. We got all what we requested and even the additional free breakfasts. All hotel is super clean, the cleaners are passing regularly and do a good job. The swimming pool is using a salted water system, which is ecological and free of chemical substances. The family room with big bunk beds for the children and living room with small kitchenette and TV was very comfortable. The kitchen and playing room (with board games) on the first floor. The coffee is just one floor down. Nice hotel beach and nearby beaches were excellent and clean. Free kayaks and paddle board provided by hotel. Good jogging routes around the hotel. Massage place and local restaurants nearby the hotel.

Outstanding hospitality, Jerome and his team are professional, helpful, kind and most welcoming. We really enjoyed our stay, the hotel has a beautiful beach that is to be used only by the hotel guests and cleaned twice a day. Kayaks are available to explore the bay. Both the pool at the beach and the ones (incl jacuzzi) at the Villa have beautiful views. A small complimentary breakfast was provided free of charge with delicious smoothie options each morning and we also enjoyed the dinner that was delivered at our terrace every evening. Overall the whole hotel has a nice & peaceful vibe. We had an amazing time, thanks to the whole staff for making our stay memorable.

Private pool was superb, a real luxury, we stayed in 105. Breakfast was okay, nothing special. Sea food beach bar, had BBQ nights with entertainment, a lovely atmosphere. The accommodation was advertised as 80 sq.m, with living area. I think it was more like 40sq.m plus the pool, and the only "living area" was outside. Local village only 5 minute walk, had most things you would need, eg chemist, supermarkets etc. Plus quite a variety of restaurants. Very peaceful compared to the other side of the island. We had a wonderful 7 nights.

We booked this hotel for a family holiday. On our arrival we reported at the security desk and shortly after we were collected by a tuk tuk and driven up to reception, which was perched at the top of a hill. Following our check in we were taken by tuk tuk to our rooms. On entering the rooms it was jaw dropping. The rooms had floor to ceiling glass walls offering panoramic views of the bay. We woke up every morning to a sunrise across which was visible from lying on the bed- a million dollar view, even when sat on the toilet. The cottages are perched on a rock face looking onto the sea/bay. The hotel complex has a good size infinity pool and smaller pools for children. There is access to a small beach with free watersports. Every morning breakfast is served in the viewpoint resturant which offers panoramic views of the bay and sea, the food was great with lots of variety. The staff were attentive and special thanks go to Minkess the guest relations manager. A fantastic location to enjoy and relax at. There are beaches nearby with powder white sands and great for snorkelling and watersports. Well recommended location! We will definately be visiting this hotel again. The hotel also arranged all outbound transfers and including taxi and ferry. The only real negative was the steep hills to ascend and desend, which made for great workouk outs. Not ideal for people with mobility problems but the hotel do have transport and measures to facilitate access.Check with hotel first

We took the Deluxe Jacuzzi Grande and it was worth every penny. We thoroughly enjoyed the room with the jacuzzi and the view from the bedroom is simply fascinating. Staff were excellent and friendly throughout. Tuktuk service to and fro the room were prompt and effective. The beach was beautiful with calm waters and soft sand. Breakfast was a little lacking in choice and spread. But it is adequate. Pool bar was enjoyable with a good choice of finger foods and cocktails. We ordered a calamari at the pool bar on the first day and it was delicious. However we were slightly disappointed with the calamari at the beach sand bar. Will definitely return given the chance.

Loved this hotel. Stayed for three nights at the end of our trip and got to spend time truly relaxing before heading back to work. The breakfast was outstanding and all other meals were of the same caliber. The staff were friendly and helpful! The pool is under construction but they opened up some of the smaller villa pools and that was fine.

Very beautiful hotel. Every room it's own individual into built up onto the hill. We stayed in a deluxe villa all the way on top (6402). Very nice views but I believe all have some of the water. Very steep though. Definitely not for those with limited mobility even with the tuk tuks ( stairs to pool, stairs to beach)Breakfast was excellent as was the spa. Infinity pool with beautiful views. Service was good as well. Giving a 4/5 because beach not fabulous. Situated behind rocks and beach restaurant average, nothing special (we had better meals in the little village which is very close by). All in all a beautiful resort with beautiful views from everywhere. I would stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay here! Our room was spacious (sunrise suite) and very clean. The housekeeping came everyday to clean, gave us chocolates and even a rose on Valentine’s Day! The pool area is beautifully designed and really a place to relax. Watching the sunset from the infinity pool was just magic!! We tried the gym which had a good amount of facilities and the steam room was great as well! I want to highlight especially that the staff at the reception was there for any request. You get a Whatsapp number and can ask them for anything, they’ll answer and try to arrange it for you! We got a free shuttle down to 7-11 and were brought to the ferry port as we were leaving. Such kind people working there! The restaurant/ pool bar has a lovely atmosphere. We had breakfast included and it was delicious! A great variety. Room service is available all day you can select anything from the great menu of the restaurant. You have access to the best tables at the restaurant (sunset view) without having to worry about a minimum spending (as there often is in such modern pool bars). Enough talking - it was great!

We had such a great time at Unique. I love that it is a small hotel. It was so quiet and peaceful. The views were absolutely amazing. The up keep was great. We loved that they had evening turndown service in our rooms. We haven't had that before and it was a great little bonus. The pool was constantly being cleaned and serviced so that it was operating at the best standards. The restaurant attached was absolutely phenomenal. We didn't have a single meal there that wasn't amazing. The drinks were good but I will say they were definitely more pricey than the food. The staff was extremely helpful. They were always welcoming and had smiles. Vince was a huge help with just general questions about the area and finding out about things to do and places to go. There's also a shuttle that will drive you down the hill into the main street where all of the shops and restaurants are. The accommodations were beautiful, clean and welcoming. It's a small property but it was really really nice. Our expectations were exceeded.

This was the nicest hotel we stayed at in Thailand and we couldn’t believe the price compared to some of the other places we had been to. We had the room that walks straight out to the pool and it was heaven. It was so quiet and peaceful. We loved watching the sunset, planes flying by and even the thunderstorms. There was space to sit in the shade or sun. The staff are so helpful and you can whatsapp them any questions. The room was huge and very clean with excellent facilities. Loved the small touches - won’t spoil them all. The gym was the best I’d seen, really well equipped, shared with the villas but never busy. Also a huge relief was not seeing a single mosquito, guess it helps being high up! Their restaurant is busy and the food (tuna and rock lobster pasta) was delicious. The a la carte breakfast was the best hotel breakfast we’ve had - the fry up and pastries are great. Again the staff in the restaurant were so lovely. We didn’t want to leave!

We loved everything about this resort…..what a brilliant find through Booking.com! The rooms are super stylish and spacious, the infinity pool and gym facilities are excellent, the Maithy Bar and Restaurant is absolutely top class with delicious food and fabulous cocktails. The views are stunning, this has to be one of the best views on Koh Samui which befits the name of this beautiful resort ‘UniQue BoutiQue Resort’. The staff are fantastic and the service they provided was exemplary. Thank you so much to Chris, Kay, Mai, Vince, Jeremy and all of the wonderful staff for making our stay so special……we will definitely be back!

I’d like to express my deepest satisfaction of staying here. It was, perhaps, better decision. The room space, furniture, sound proofing panoramic windows, and, last but not least, The View are awesome! Room service and restaurant deserve a special thanks. Even during sudden power shortage (whole district) they kept on duty and fed people and tried to make the evening better. Wifi coverage was not good at pool area, but bandwidth is well enough for social media and video. Parking lot was available every time we got back.

The attention to detail at the villa was exceptional. From having access to a moped to the use of a mobile phone for ordering take aways and taxis. When we arrived by ferry the owners came to meet us and arranged our transfer to the villa free of charge and also again on the return journey, which was really very kind. They went through the whole villa explaining how things work thoroughly. They have a book full of information about the villa, boat trips, local places to eat etc. which was very useful for our stay. The views over the bay from the pool and outdoor chill area are incredible, definitely the highlight of this place. Plenty of towels were provided and the bathroom facilities were great with 3 settings to use in the shower. Great facilities in the kitchen and they provide some nice drinks and snacks in the mini bar which you can either pay for at the end of your stay or just replace them easily from the local mini markets or 7-Eleven. The bed was super comfy and you even get some good views over the bay from the bedroom. The pool is a nice place to spend the mornings first thing and the evenings after a day exploring. Lots of butterflies and dragon flies to see around the pool area too. The living area is very cosy and you get access to movies to watch on the tv. The Horizon villa is highly recommended place to stay.

The villa has an amazing view that is just stunning. photos don’t do justice to how pretty the view is. We absolutely loved our stay. Alex and Franzi were both kind and warm. Alex picked us up personally from the pier which was much appreciated and then showed us around the villa. They go out of their way to make your stay comfortable and relaxing. For instance, they have a motorbike kept for you which you can use throughout your stay, additionally they will pick you up and drop you off to the pier. additionally they even helped us with our tickets for the next island. Small but really kind gestures that are much appreciated. The villa is modern and has all the amenities. Besides if you need anything, Alex and Franzi are just one call away to help you out with whatever is needed. The pool is also very nice and has a breath taking view of the island. You can see Koh Phangan and Koh Ang Thong from the pool and also from the villa. We loved our stay at this villa. Lastly there are plenty of restaurants with a few minutes from the villa. Do visit high the moon if you are at the villa! Feels so sad leaving this amazing villa and this beautiful island.

A wonderful experience.The villa was beyond our expectations: the view is simply sublime, the pool is great, the house is extremely well appointed (Franzi and Alex have thought of everything, down to the smallest detail), the furniture is comfortable... Big positive point for the automatic scooter, which avoids you to rent one to not necessarily honest renters. Franzi and Alex, the hosts, are adorable, discreet and extremely available. They organized everything from A to Z: the ferry tickets, the cab to the villa, the transfer to the airport... Everything was perfect. It was an incredible stay. Koh Tao is an exceptional island. We will come back with pleasure.

Everything was exceptional. Alex and Franzi were super friendly, relaxed and enthousiastic about their villa. The villa itself is just amazing, very spacious, clean and luxurious. Swimming pool, smart tv and rain shower. We had privacy, a great view and drinking water. The scooter was for free, which was very convenient, as well. We wished we could have stayed longer and we can definitely recommend this villa to everyone who visits Koh Tao!

Fantastic location, amazing views. The breeze at the top of the mountain and a dip in the pool is ideal after a long day snorkeling. They have done everything possible to make your stay as convenient as possible, even providing us with a phone to contact food delivery.

Stayed in villa C16. Such a beautiful villa, the sunrise and sunset from the veranda was out of this world and could be all enjoyed by your own private pool. Couldn’t recommend to stay a shark Villas anymore. I was so pleased with everything the place had to offer. Many thanks.

Wir hatten die P5 Villa und ich muss sagen: Der Ausblick war wunderschön. Der Pool ist nicht zu klein aber auch nicht zu groß. Ideal für 2 Leute um darin sich abzukühlen und zu entspannen. Die Terasse war relativ Groß und man hatte hier genug Platz, um sich breit zu machen. Etwas enttäuscht war ich von der Villa... die Zimmer bzw. der Raum wirken auf den Fotos viel Größer als es ist. Zudem hat die Villa leider etwas gerochen (ich kann nicht beschreiben nach was). Am Anfang fand ich das schon etwas unangenehm aber irgendwann gewöhnt man sich daran. Das Bad hat mir leider nicht so gefallen. Hier ist definitiv eine Renovierung notwendig (Toilettenbrille ist schon sehr abgenutzt, Dusche hat viele Gebrauchsspuren). Während man duscht wird leider das ganze Bad nass. Wir mussten danach immer ein Handtuch auf dem Boden legen, damit unsere Fuße trocken bleiben. Frische Handtücher bekommt man auch nur alle 3 Tage.... Die Reinigungskraft kam leider auch schon immer um 9:00/9:30 Uhr und wollte die Villa putzen. Falls man noch schläft wird man bewusst leider von der Reinigungskraft aufgeweckt... Also im Großen und Ganzen war die Villa Okay. Das einzig einwandfreie hier war der Ausblick, die Terrasse und der Pool. Ob wir wieder die gleiche Unterkunft nehmen würden?: Ich denke eher nicht. Es gibt auf Koh Tao viele andere Villen mit einem Pool und einen mega Ausblick :)

We oredered a pool villa at Cape Shark. They way to the villa is a bit scary with many steep roads. In general their villa's are located far from the center of Koh Tao. They offer free transportation to the center but not back to the villa. A taxi back to the villa costs 600 Baht which is not cheap relatively. Renting a bike is not an option (at least for me) due to the scary roads... Other than the far location, the villa itslef is really great! Inside it's clean and spacious. Nice kitchen. A small but very nice pool with an AMAZING view to the bay (which might worth the far location). Another problem is that Cape Shark does not have a restourant, meaning that there's no breakfast. The only option is to take their shuttel to the center or order in some food to the room (which might be nice). There's a restourant about 15 minutes walk (steep roads...). The nearest beach is about 20 minutes walk down the hill. We were there only 2 nights and we took the boat trip around the island which was offered from the very nice lady from the reception. The trip was really good and includes peakups from and to the villa.

The villa we stayed in was amazing! Incredible panoramic views of the water, lots of boats to watch. It was a short 2 minute walk down to the water to do some of the best snorkelling I’ve done in Thailand. (Saw black tip reef sharks) so yes there is sharks in Shark Bay. Had our own private infinity pool which was great! The staff was great, very helpful and even picked us up at the pier and took us to town at no charge. The room was very modern with a full kitchen, stocked with items for breakfast as well. Only thing to mention is there is lots of construction going on with new units but they are respectful and quiet. All work stopped early and they did not start so early as to wake you.

Cape Shark Villas is a gem in Koh Tao. Ocean views and spacious well appointed villas make the best home base for a vacation on the island. This time we were in C1 which offers privacy and a large outdoor area for sunbathing around the pool. Special thank you to Ploi ( I hope I’m spelling that right) This was our 2nd time staying there and she always made efforts to ensure we had a great stay.

Firstly there's four properties here only two of them are shown off in the photos. But... As a solo traveller my plunge pool villa was perfect, well appointed, good WiFi and Aircon. Super comfortable and a lovely place to chill away from the noise. Bonus there's a lovely guy next door with a weed farm if that's your thing. Nothing here but coconuts and the plunge pool places could do with a view but exactly what I was looking for.

Its even better than the photos. We very much enjoyed the villa - so much space - very good value for money. The pool water was really fresh and nice to swim in. Being in Koh Phangan, you need to hire a scooter so we found this place very convenient. A big bottle of water was kept filled for out entire stay which was very helpful and reduced plastic waste. Best shower in Thailand so far. The mattress and pillows were perfect. Combined with the quiet location, i slept amazing. Looking forward to coming back.

pool was very clean, room was perfect. if you book ask host to rent a bike for you as its a bit away from some shops. i've definitely will come back.

The massage service. The Pool. The overall customer service.

Nice place, with nice swimming pool, quiet location, very clean, very friendly and helpful staff.

Everything about our stay was great! The staff was helpful and friendly. The hotel was clean and the beachfront private pool room was exactly as promised. Also the food served at the restaurant was tasty. However, the beach at this property is perhaps not the best for snorkeling or swimming. It is possible to book a private driver at the reception for relatively cheap price and with short notice.

U Samui has tremendous potential. What's missing most about this Hotel isn't that it doesn't have a Spa or the absence of a swim-up bar, but it's missing adequate management. In the entirety of our 11 night stay; and despite asking to speak with the manager on 2 separate occasions, I didn't see the manager even once. The F&B manager appeared only briefly on a Friday night, and only to sit and drink at the bar (busying half of the on-duty staff with tending to her personal needs). Non-guests are encouraged to use the hotel facilities, but with just 26 lounge chairs for up to 102 guests, it explains why pool chairs and beach towels were perpetually in short supply. A few points to note: We took it upon ourselves to spray insect killer in our Pool Villa as we were being heavily infiltrated. Additionally, if travelling during the first half of 2023, be aware that there is a substantial construction project immediately next door which was undergoing constant noisy demolition; including incessant jack-hammering, throughout our stay. Proximity to the airport mat also pose an issue for some, with over 30 incoming flights and over 30 outgoing flights daily, many flying almost directly overhead. Those issues could be overlooked, but the lack of management could not. Thanks to the hard work of a small handful of staff, the place runs in spite of the poor management, but a well run operation runs from the top down. Hopefully U Resorts figures it out sooner than later.

U Samui has a beautiful pool area. It's a shame that they don't have more lounge chairs and they could certainly benefit from bar service in the pool area. Drinjs can still be purchased, but patrons need to dry off, slip into a shirt and flip flops then ebter the restaurant to place their drink orders. The beach bar doesn't ever seem to be open. If travelling in the first half of 2023 be forewarned that there is a major construction project; including the very noisy demolition of the next door property. Grinding and jackhammering occur daily, all day. It's not at all relaxing. For our stay, we chose a Pool Villa. There were 8 to choose from, and careful consideration must be used in doing so, as several of the villas are immediately adjacent to the restaurant and patio, providing a clear view of what is advertised as a private plunge pool. There's nothing private about them. Careful, because if you choose a Villa too far from the patio, you will end up with trees blocking your sunshine. No matter which Villa you choose, be prepared to have a rather dirty plunge pool, as debris falls from the surrounding bushes constantly and the pool maintenance is rather minimal. Beach towels are not very plentiful resulting in days where no new towels are supplied. This adds to the difficulty enjoying the pool. Bar soap is nit provided without special request. And when you see the pool water, you will definitely want to wash with soap. Hotel management is absent at all times.

Lovely hotel. Good location right on a Main Street. Staff was excellent and extremely helpful. Breakfast buffet had several options with fresh made eggs. Pool was beautiful but chairs were occupied quickly with people possibly claiming chairs with their towels early in the morning. Restaurant served poolside food and drinks which we enjoyed every food item we ordered.

Having stayed at numerous hotels throughout Asia over the last 10 years, the U Hotel Group has a business plan and marketing strategy that must be the envy of its competitors, and no-where is this more evident than at the U Samui Hotel. From a range of modern and thoughtfully designed luxury accommodation to suit all budgets, tailored guest preferences offered at check-in, excellent staff training, an outstanding 6-star breakfast smorgasbord, impeccable house-keeping, and a wonderful pool and surrounding grounds, what is not to love? A special mention to 3 charming, friendly and attentive restaurant staff in particular who impressed us - ICE, BOBOE, and the very lovely CHI - all of whom made our stay at U Samui one that we will long remember. We would be grateful if management would please convey our appreciation to the restaurant staff we have mentioned (Chi, Ice and Boboe), and also Aum at Reception, during our check-in.. Thank you to everyone at U Samui, you have ticked every box imaginable.

Am speechless. Words cannot describe how fabulous this property is. Private pool, great bedrooms, bathrooms - and importantly great air conditioning. Did I mention this private cinema room? We are coming back to Thailand - just to re-visit this villa. Stewart

Loved the private pool and the area was quite compared to the busy centres. Breakfast each morning was also nice. Would definitely recommend

This is a small resort. We stayed in the beach front with a private pool. Very nice facility. Quality is pretty good. Fits the price. Staff is super friendly and helpful. The private pool is great and well maintained. The beach is the big let down. It is very narrow and super shallow, ankle depth when the tide is out.

We booked the 2-bedroom penthouse with private pool for 8 nights. Everything was prefect. The rooms turned out to be better than the pictures on the website. We enjoyed every moment of our stay at Skye hotel. This is the best accommodation we had experienced so far. The staffs were friendly and super helpful. Especially, the mgr (Ewa), she was very professional and resourceful. 10 out of 10 for customer service! Great job, Skye Hotel! You will probably expect more customers from my company as I have shared my wonderful experience with many of my colleagues. Leon

The Villa was much larger than expected, the pictures do not do it justice. There were 5 of us and we had so much room, It was a real treat to be able to spread out and not be on top of each other all the time!! The pool is big enough for a splash/swim, not often you get your own pool in Thailand so for us it felt like a huge privilege to have a pool at all. The kids loved being able to wake up and jump in! The villa was was well maintained and very clean. The owners came after 2 days and cleaned sheets and towels which was not expected and very lovely!

We enjoyed our stay for two weeks very much. The best feature of this large 4-bedroom 4-bathroom villa is privacy. The home contains everything you need. A deck with a swimming pool overlooks the creek and the forest behind it. It is not visible from anywhere. Squirrels jump from one tree to another, butterflies eat ripe bananas on a banana tree, bats can be seen occasionally. You can see geckos and iguanas too. Surprisingly virtually no mosquitos. Our grandson spent much of his time in the pool. A car is definitely needed to go shopping or to a beach. Silver beach is 7 minutes drive. Lamai beach is a bit further away (12 minutes) but it is not suitable for kids. Two very good family run restaurants with authentic Thai food are within 5 minutes walking distance (but beware of the ice cubes in your drinks). Shopping for food can be done in one of the two Lotuses in Lamai or Chaweng. Fresh food market in Lamai is great. Some maintenance issues in this large villa emerge from time to time. They are quickly resolved by Lana who is responds almost immediately. Occasionally you may be disturbed by stray dogs barking but this is the problem typical for all Asia and you can get used to it.

The villa was spacious! Pool was amazing. There is a waterfall just beside the villa. You will definitely need a bike to go around. All amenities including washing machine were there. We really found the owner Lana very approachable. She was there with a smile when we reached and even as early as 6am during checkout. 10/10

Excellent spacious villa with all needed facilities for a great holiday! Accommodated by friendly and helpful host. Clean and comfy pool. Easily accessible by car and has a parking spot.

Has all amenities , pool nice and clean , nice size rooms all with own bathrooms , kitchen facility very good , local shops and pharmacies.

Samui Blue is even more stunning in person than in the photos! This was our first trip to Thailand, and after weeks of scrolling through Booking.com to find the perfect place, Samui Blue exceeded our expectations. The villa is tastefully furnished, and the sofa was exceptionally comfortable—a big plus for relaxing during family time. Each double bedroom offers a gorgeous pool view and comes with an ensuite bathroom. The villa also has a washing machine, which is a blessing after sandy beach days, and a dishwasher, making it feel like a true vacation with no dishes to worry about. I’d read previous reviews about high electricity costs and was bracing for a steep bill, but ours only came to about £50 for five days. Shortly after we left, the villa management, Kate—who is absolutely delightful—contacted us to say there was an error with the bill and arranged an immediate refund, bringing it down to under £30! I would have never known about the error in the bill. They also went above and beyond when my daughter accidentally left her purse behind; they met us at the airport to return it. Talk about honesty and fantastic service! A fantastic, affordable restaurant called Mr. Eung’s is just down the road. We enjoyed dining there as well as taking food back to the villa. I can’t wait to return to Samui Blue!

It was a fantastic location - a short walk to the beach, cafes and restaurants. We caught the local bus/taxi to other beaches and Fishermen's Village when we wanted to visit there. It was so lovely to come back to our villa and swim in our own pool. I would definitely highly recommend this villa and would stay here again on my next visit to Koh Samui

The pool is sublime. The rooms and bedding are very comfortable. The main bathroom is amazing. The kitchen has everything you need. We were there for 11 days and the air con only cost an extra £20. Close to restaurants and the beach. The lovely hostess was so helpful- went off and got beers when we arrived and had done all the shopping I’d asked for.

Location and villa really are great - Janet is a great host and goes above and beyond - one day there was some trouble with the pool - Janet immediately organized help and support - it´s not very often that you have such a great and attentive host! Thank you so much for everything!

Beautiful and spacious Villa with fabulous pool. Short walk from beach and shops, restaurants. Has a communal gym and tennis court of site, 24/7 security. We absolutely loved our stay here and would definitely stay again.

Beautiful, small resort on a private island. Access is by a small motor boat - it’s very quick, only a couple minutes, but during rough seas/windy days, it can be a bit precarious. Beautiful villa with private pool was spacious and clean. Lots of mosquitos though - so really couldn’t enjoy having the sliding doors open to the villa. Didn’t explore the beach much as our private pool was lovely. Nice breakfast selection daily.

The whole stay was extremely relaxing in a wonderful hotel. The pool right next to our bay view villa was large enough to swim and very well maintained. The room was a superbly maintained and in perfect condition and very nicely equipped. Breakfast was awesome, the staff (especially AHM and KANZA - hope I spelled it right) was extremely friendly and dedicated and read our lips regarding our needs. The rooms were exceptionally clean, and the hue restaurant next to the pool was delicious (especially the Tuna). The large Pool was directly at the bay with a nice view of Choeng Mon beach, swiming however was not always possible due to the tide. The transport back and forth to our car over the bay (depending on Tide by truck or boat) was easy and always available, and the front desk could always be reached through the hotel app. If there was anything beyond topics that could be solved using the app, M and Beer were more than helpful and very knowledgeable. Dima was always approachable when we had questions about excursions e.g. Ang Thong (which was great by the way). The rest of the staff obviously was extremely helpful as well (we would like to mention the lady resposible for the main pool area, unfortunately do not recall the name) Overall it was a perfect stay, we returned very relaxed and cant wait to be there again!

Absolutely gorgeous and a great stay. Pros: Newer, reserved clean beach, pool in room, spacious, quiet, safety, helpful staff Cons: Mainland access, very slow service at beach cafe (except Tony Da, he was awesome), housekeeping oversights We were upgraded upon arrival from ocean view villa to the horizon view and that’s got to be the best villa. Incredibly gorgeous view, very private shielded, stairs down to private sofa at dock, pretty sunlight near dusk. The pool is shallow (3.5 ft) and stayed perfectly clean. The room is large with great air conditioning and the big bed was very comfortable. We requested 2 beds far in advance of our stay and only upon arrival learned that 1 would be a metal cot. Unfortunately the metal cot was painful and smelled mildewy. We asked housekeeping to make up the sofa instead, but those sheets had a stain of something dark and sticky. The bathroom is very spacious with 2 closets and 2 sink spaces on either side. The shower was large but needed to be cleaned more thoroughly around the bottom edges as there was dark buildup . Please be aware that shower water gets unsafely hot. The island is hilly but they offer buggy rides (very easy to ask). Daytime there’s a small 4 person boat for the 2-3 min journey from the mainland, it can be dirty and on our last day our luggage got soaked. At night there’s a tall truck that’s much easier. There’s a busy beach club across the water (semi-walkable through low water). Breakfast is PHENOMENAL!!

If want to visit a secluded resort in Koh Samui, without being too far away from the island center, I think this is the best choice available. The room is very spacious and clean. I also took the villa with the pool. The pool was amazing and its size is good for a small family. The view was great and you can stay at the resort for the whole day without being bored. The food options are great and the complimentary drinks and snacks was something I liked very much and was surprised about.

Cape Fahn was unreal. The location, villas and hospitality were top notch. The island is tucked away in a corner of Koh Samui, next to the laidback Choeng Mon beach, which had pristine white sand and clear water. The villas were very luxurious, with a large infinity pool and amazing views of the ocean and nature. The staff went out of their way to ensure we were looked after, be it at the reception, Hue restaurant or at breakfast, where Sao, Bam or Nan made sure we were well-fed! We had the most relaxed break. Thank you!

We (2 couples) had booked an apartment with two bedrooms for a week. "Unfortunately" our apartment was under renovation, so we got an upgrade to the large villa with the private pool instead. I'm sure the stay would have been amazing in the apartment, but this upgrade made our stay an experience for life! Such a beautiful and spacious villa made into the rocks. Great bedrooms, nice kitchen. An amazing pool and spacious roof terrace. The staff was very friendly and helpful and was even sorry that we didn't get the apartment we had booked.

We had a huge and fully equipped villa with direct access to the common (and rather small) pool and further to the beach.Villa is exquisite for families.Good and smiley service, breakfast sent to your room every morning upon request.Nice location for those who don't want to be in the bustle Chaweng area.In Lamai you have all what you need ,and in a very quiet and relax location.

stuff was every time accessible and helpful. Villa was equipped with everything what we needed and even more. Nice pool was located right behind our doors.

Our experience at The Rock in Koh Samui was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The view from the accommodation is truly breathtaking – waking up to that stunning beachfront felt like a dream. It honestly looks like something out of heaven! The room itself was spotlessly clean, beautifully maintained, and incredibly comfortable. You can tell a lot of thought goes into every detail here. A special shoutout to Chow, who made our stay even more memorable. Her kindness, attentiveness, and genuine warmth added so much value to our trip – she truly goes above and beyond for guests, and we’re so grateful for her presence throughout our stay. If you’re considering a stay in Koh Samui, don’t hesitate – The Rock is a slice of paradise you’ll never forget.

From start to finish, everything about our stay was perfect! We booked one of the beachfront villas, and it exceeded all our expectations. The attention to detail was remarkable—from the luxurious outdoor bath to the soft silk bedding and the high-tech digital toilet. The villa had everything we needed and more, making our experience truly unforgettable. The exceptional service we received made our stay even more special. Having traveled to Koh Samui for 25 years, I can confidently say this was by far one of my best stays. Thank you for everything Jerome 🙂 I will definitely be returning in the future! Highly recommend! ❤️

It was absolutely amazing. The room was STUNNING! Unfortunately we didn’t get the room with the pool flowing from inside the room to the outside like we thought we were going to but it’s okay. The staff were the absolute best! They made sure we were comfortable and took care of literally everything for us.

Great stay. Beautiful two bedroom villa with spacious kitchen, large bedrooms, infinity pool and big patio overlooking a beautiful lagoon. Great service and very responsive.

The villas and view are unbelievable. We stayed in the purple villa, and loved everything about it. Just something to note, there is no door to the bathroom, but I believe that is just the purple villa. We had no issues with that, but some may. The staff are beyond friendly and helpful, and made the stay unforgettable. Goong the manager is very easy to get ahold of if you need anything, and is the sweetest lady ever. Nice area on the island, little quieter, but about a 5 min drive to the busier pier area. Great beaches near by, 2 minutes away via scooter.

Hatten das Crazy Purple, es war sehr modern und genau wie auf den Bildern abgebildet. Unterkunft sehr sauber und hatte eine sehr schöne Aussicht. Man braucht definitiv einen Roller, da es schon eher abgelegen liegt, aber man ist in 5 Minuten mitten im Trubel. Bucht am besten über die Unterkunft ein Taxi, ist 100Baht günstiger. Rollenverleih über die Unterkunft ist auch gut, fragt nur wirklich vorher wie teuer es sein wird, da wir 3 volle Tage zahlen mussten, obwohl der erste Tag erst um 18 Uhr gestartet hat. Ansonsten kann ich die Unterkunft sehr empfehlen, wenn man nicht direkt im Trubel wohnen möchte.

Fantastic villa with a breathtaking view. K. Goong, the lady at reception was very helpful, always available and smiling, ready to fulfill our requests. Be aware that this is a remote location, with a few restaurants in the vincinity but limited choices. You still have the choice to order food for delivery at the villa. Going to town requires a taxi, and will cost you 400 THB. A few beaches are at walking distance (less than 2 kms). The island is very hilly though, and that the slope is sometimes EXTREMELY steep ;-)

This hotel was truly something special. It’s built in 2024, and feels so modern and clean. The staff is super friendly and helpful to you. We stayed here for 6 nights, and have almost nothing to complain about. The breakfast was very good with great seating, both outside and insides. They got both a mini buffet and á la carte menu to order from. The pool area was great, with enough sunbeds throughout the day and a cozy relaxing atmosphere. They have a lot of different activities and complimentary services throughout the day. We tried muay thai boxing, yoga, macrame and other things. The minibar in the room has some free items, they give you small gift in the room and other things (can’t spoil all the details, you have to check for yourself). I have two small constructive feedbacks for the hotel, to make it even better: The hotel got a silent working area called the hideout. A really great place, with AC, some snacks, coffee/tea and water. I used this a lot, as I’m on workation and try to get my daily 6-8 hours of work done. One thing I think they can do better, is that the meeting room and space was used for hours by the staff for internal meetings. The last area for improvement is the food stands that’s open after the breakfast. For lunch/dinner, the hotel has 6-7 food stand with a lot of options. We tried some of them, and the quality compared to prices could be better. Overall this is a great hotel if you’re staying in the Chaweng area in Koh Samui!

Marasca Samui is a beautifully designed and well thought out hotel - from the arrival service to the room interiors and pool area. Loved the boutique aspect of the hotel that made it feel private & safe. Super walkable in the heart of Cheweng which is great for those who enjoy lots of dining & nightlife options. That being said, can get a bit noisy at night but they provide eye masks & earplugs and generally quality soundproofing. I’ll definitely come back next time I’m in Koh Samui!

The hotel is beautiful, but there aren't enough sunbeds available for paying guests. Upon arrival, you're told where you're permitted to relax. While the hotel itself is lovely, the pool is too small for the price of the room, and they really need to decide whether they want to be a beach club or a hotel.

We had an amazing time at this property. There was a lot of extra bonus decks each day in your room. There was free juice every morning freshly squeezed different flavour each morning. There is free ice cream every day at 4:30. The beds were super comfortable, soft, the comforter was Soft and the pillows are nice. There was lots to do at the hotel located on a busy strip right on the beach will definitely be returning to this resort brand new resort is only been open for one year.

전체적으로 깨끗하고 시설이 매우 좋습니다. 다만 조금 아쉬운점은 카바나를 운영중인데 카바나 비용이 생각보다 높고, 무료로 이용하는 베드가 몇개 되지 않아 이용하기가 생각보다 어렵습니다. 직원의 서비스 및 무료이용시설, 맛있는 음식들 등등 매우 좋습니다. 아! 객실내 수질은 좋지 않습니다. 욕조를 이용하려다가 물을 받아보니 색이 노랗게 보일정도 이네요. 필터도 샤워3번정도에 1번씩 교체할 정도 였습니다. (솔직후기) 하지만 대체로 위치, 시설, 서비스 등 너무 만족했습니다. 추천드립니다.

Fully equipped apartment with private small pool with a view to the sea

Villa idéale pour notre famille de 5 (dont 2 ados et une enfant). La villa en elle même n'a rien de spectaculaire (à part la vue, à couper le souffle), mais elle est néanmoins celle que les enfants ont préférée, sur les 3 louées pendant notre séjour en Thaïlande: accueillante, ouverte, calme et luxueuse sans ostentation. Un seul problème, qui n'aura malheureusement pas été réglé pendant le séjour: forte odeur de fosse septique (doublé d'une climatisation défaillante) dans la chambre du bas. Une surprenante incohérence par rapport au "sans fautes" du reste de la prestation. Une mention spéciale pour le manager, Pong, incroyable d'efficacité, de disponibilité et de gentillesse. Il a très grandement contribué à faire de notre séjour un moment exceptionnel. Naroua Villas est en cours d'expansion (mais nous n'avons pas du tout été dérangé par les travaux), et c'est tant mieux pour ceux qui pourront, plus nombreux, bénéficier de son hospitalité.

Nous avons été pris en charge par Pong des notre arrivée au port. Téléphone avec contacts utiles intégrés mis à notre disposition , on a bénéficier d'un vrai service de conciergerie HDG. Quand à la villa .... Une pure merveille!!! Une vue à couper le souffle , une décoration soignée , vraiment on a passé 5 jours au top. Petits bémols : nous étions 2 familles avec de jeunes enfants , et la balustrade ne nous a pas inspirée confiance et nous a même stressé pour les enfants.... La même chose avec une vitre pour ne pas gâcher la vue serait plus sécurisante. Aussi, les 2 chambres dispo sont de gamme un peu différentes (en gros celle de L étage est bien mieux que celle du dessous c est donc un peu inégal à partager ;-) on a dû tirer au sort !!

Que dire quand chaque matin vous pouvez admirer la baie de Koh Tao, les bateaux, la mer, et chaque soir le coucher de soleil face à votre villa, dans la piscine à débordement ! La logistique est au top avec une villa très bien équipée pour y vivre en autarcie, et avec la possibilité de bouger en taxi-pick-up mis à disposition (avec un délai d'une heure à chaque mouvement !). Et Monsieur Pong est au petit soin; le propriétaire, Andy, est disponible pour répondre et conseiller en français. Le seul bémol est que, sans la capacité de conduire un scooter dans des conditions "délicates" (puisqu'il n'y a aucune possibilité de louer une voiture), l'accès est tellement "hard" et pentu, vous êtes cloué sur cette belle place: dans votre villa !

Honeymoon Suite was amazing. Luxurious unit with great amenities. Unbelievable view on the patio with infinity pool to enjoy sunrise and sunsets. Close to the airport. We loved our stay!

We stayed in the sunrise villa and it was wonderful. The spa was amazing and it was a great place to chill. We needed a quiet holiday to recharge and this location was perfect. It’s so quiet and away from the busier parts of the island, but those were easy to get to when we felt like it. And there is some amazing takeaway options that deliver for when we didn’t. The beach was less than half an hour walk, there is a family mart at the bottom of the hill and lots of local delicious Thai food nearby. The hill to get to the villa is quite steep (especially the last 10 meters or so), so if you want to walk a lot like we did be prepared for that. The owners are lovely and super helpful. Their communication throughout our entire stay was excellent.

This is a beautiful property. Very comfortable and upscale. Had everything we needed. Eldor picked us up at the airport and had a lot of information about the island and places to visit. He was very knowledgeable. He communicated with us throughout our stay and was easy to reach if we had questions. The view is beautiful. Able to walk to restaurants and a few shops. Location is close to Choengmon beach which we thought was nice. I recommend this property.

Amazing Villa, even better in person. beautiful view. The owner Ranaan was amazing, if you needed anything, even hiring a car was organised by him. We cannot rate this property highly enough

Beautiful property with beautiful view. Eldor was very helpful providing hotel pick up and drop off.

We had an awesome staycation, the bathtub was huge, can easily fit a group of friends in it. The service was super friendly.good breakfast. Restaurants near by. Shops as in 7/11 just a few mins away. Massage in your own room. Loved it.

The villa is gorgeous and in a quiet location of Koh Samui which we loved. My wife & I spent 10 beautiful nights here. We were extremely pleased with how friendly & kind the staff were. Overall a magnificent experience.

Wonderful stay. Food was great, service was fabulous and the villa with view was soooo wonderful! Loved it and didn’t want to leave!

Perfect quiet, right on the beach place to stay. Convenience stores, restaurants, and massage, very easy walk away. Will stay again!

Great place to stay, always made you feel welcome.

The villa is spacious and very comfortable. The pool is of good size and very clean. Nice view, great staffs. Our family had a good time.

Geräumige und saubere Unterkunft. Der Blick war fantastisch,man konnte abends den Blick noch lange auf der Terrasse genießen ohne von Mücken gestochen zu werden,weil für Ventilatoren gesorgt war. Die Kommunikation war auf englisch prima und die Informationen zur Insel wurden von Karten unterstützt,die im Wohnzimmer verfügbar waren. Am schönsten waren neben der geräumigen Küche die Bäder.bei 3kindern hatten wir bei drei Bädern genügend Raum und fantastisch war der Blick aus der Dusche direkt in die offene Natur.einfach herrlich und unbedingt weiter zu empfehlen

Spacious, clean daily, nice view and very friendly staffs at affordable price. Located a bit far from the busy area but good for kids as you don't want them to be near to all the bars and loud musics. This is a peaceful gem of the beautiful island. A car is recommended.

別墅的景觀很漂亮，可以看到海也可以看到森林跟小山景，服務也不錯，缺點是交通進出如果沒有自己開車真的很不方便，早上參加龜島浮潛，接送的車子只能在山下等，要步行下去，出入叫出租車花費不低，一定要議價，蘇美的出租車實在太貴了。

My girlfriend and I absolutely LOVED staying here. The view is even better than the photos will show. Very private and secluded from the party area, but only a 5 minute motorcycle ride for when you want to go check it out. Lucas was also very communicative and was able to help us out with anything we needed while we stayed there. Thank you so much Lucas!

You will be remote in the mountains with the best views. The hosts are super nice and always willing to help. There is a nice climb of stairs to the top villa but make sure to ask the PM about it. Great place, would stay again.

A great self catered accommodation in the hills just outside Sairee. Lovely facilities and an amazing view.
