"Only stayed one night but it was clean and comfortable and excellent value for money.... A perfect place to stay if you need to be at the airport early (like I did) and are just wanting a bed for the night. Close to everything you need.... Bars, shops, restaurants, 7/11, etc etc. The girl who runs the place was an absolute saviour when the taxi that I booked to take me to the airport failed to show up.... She very generously offered to take me in her car.... Can't thank her enough. 🙏 I'd stay...

Garrya Tongsai Bay Samui

10/10 Excellent

"Very enjoyable stay. The staff were wonderful. Easy access to outside food as well. Would highly recommend."

The Briza Beach Resort, Samui

10/10 Excellent

"Property is a tad steep so be in good physical condition to prevent injury. There are maps located throughout property, but straight forward top of hill reception and goes down to the restaurant and beach bar. Location is perfect central location on the that side of the island 10 min ride if that to many spots like Ark Bar and Central Samui. Staff is top notch and there to help.I booked unit with smoking patio and plunge pool, def advise to do the same in the hot months."

The Ritz-Carlton, Koh Samui

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful hotel on Samui island. The staff are incredible, the hotel beautifully maintained and so large you feel like you’re truly away from it all. Don’t miss out on visiting the spa (try the coconut flow), or taking one of the complimentary gym classes (Muay Thai training with Mik and Sean was absolutely fantastic!) Last but not least, the food and restaurants. Aum took brilliant care of us at Breakfast, Jakky supplied endless fresh coconuts at the pool bar, One Rai was unbelievably good (special thanks to Raj & chef Armaan who explained so much about the flavours and dishes) and also Pak Thai for traditional Thai food (Beauty was incredible with her food recommendations and education on local dishes!). Also don’t miss the Fire show on the beach after dinner! We can’t wait to come back!"

Splendid PENTHOUSE 120m² seaside, fitness room, panoramic view 4/5pers.

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay really enjoyed our time there. It’s very clean and comfortable. The beach is within a five minute walk, but I wouldn’t consider this beachfront. It’s tucked in the neighborhood down the street from the condo."

Skye Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and spacious. The view was spectacular! Just like the photos. Staff were pleasant and helpful. They listened to our requests and did their best to make them happen. We enjoyed watching the planes fly past. Overall it was a wonderful holiday!"

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."
