"What a fantastic hotel! Unbelievable value for what you get. Huge pool, very clean and spacious rooms, unbeatable location on Choeng Mon beach. Such a lovely area - sandy beach with calm, warm sea and many lovely beach bars and restaurants. Also fantastic cafes on the main road for breakfast / brunch. Very chilled vibe. Wish I could give above 5 stars for the level of service. This is exceptional and the owner is so kind, friendly and helpful. Exceptional value, stunning area, had everything...

Top Big Buddha Temple Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Regency Koh Samui

8/10 Good

"I reserved a 1000 sqf Executive suite with view of the ocean. Also, I requested for the highest floor. My first night was in 115 (building 1, first floor, room #5). There was no view of the ocean none whatsoever. As soon as I walked into the room, I call front desk right away to request for room change. The staff told me that there was no room available and I need to wait until the next day to find out what room, building is available. And, I have to check out by noon and wait until 3:00pm to check in again. The hotel should have provide accommodation like let us check out late or have access to regency club while waiting for our room for 3 hours. Note that, we paid for 4 days in a row."

Chaweng Garden Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I chose this hotel because of its location on an amazing beach, and the fact I had read that is a more authentic and charming property than similar hotels in Chaweng. I did have minor worries about how planes flew overhead and it being right at the heard of the most lively part of Chaweng. However, as others have noted, the planes really aren't that bad, and you barely notice after a while. Also, it's a large proper and I really didn't hear any noise from any bars etc. If that's what you are after, it is right next to Ark Bar, which many people rate as the best on the island, and you only need alk a few steps along the beach to it. I got the cheapest room but it was spacious and had everything I needed. It was very close the restaurant, pool and best of all the beach. Most importantly for me, the sea is amazing for swimming. They do have red flags and warnings for jellyfish every day but I swam far out with no problems at all. There are jetskis in the sea but far out and quite far along the beach. The beach itself is gorgeous and most of the time you can get a lounger, though as ever, despite polite notices, people still 'reserve' some with a towel. The buffet breakfast is excellent and never crowded. They make your eggs, omelettes etc to order also. I've read complaints about price, value etc but I found it to be perfect. Chaweng is quite manic and as an area maybe I'd have preferred Lamia but Chaweng has the best beach and that's what I want."

The Ritz-Carlton, Koh Samui

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel to relax, the pool villas are fantastic"

Deva Beach Resort Samui

10/10 Excellent

"This was an awesome find. The room was spacious and private with a nice balcony overlooking one of the pools. There are several pools onsite. The balcony was complete with a spa bath big enough for 2 comfortably. The staff were really helpful and friendly. The breakfast was great and the setting overlooking the beach with the sea breeze was an awesome start to the day. I would definitely stay here again. The area was full of fantastic local dining spots. We sampled many in our 8 night stay."

Samui Mermaid Resort

8/10 Good

"Beautiful place to stay. The cleaning staff at the place are brilliant! Always came back to a clean room 👌 only one small thing - at night, staff need to do routine walks around the site. The people next to us were shouting (drunk) until the early hours of the morning. A routine walk by night staff to stop this would be helpful as there is no one on the desk at night. Apart from that small thing, the stay was decent."
