Tean Island Golf Holidays

The location of the hotel is excellent, on a lovely stretch of Lamai beach. There are plenty of sun loungers both around the picturesque pool and on the sand as well as beach towels in your room for you to use. The staff are all delightful - super friendly, polite and helpful. Breakfast is served in the restaurant which is open to the outside with pool and beach views - very pleasant. Eggs in a variety of forms were freshly made for you by cheerful staff members Bedrooms are very spacious. Good amenities in the room such as a fridge, umbrellas for showers and daily bottled water. There is a massage centre attached to the hotel for open air treatments at a reasonable price. On Thursdays, there is a barbeque on the beach and a brilliant fire show. However, the hotel overall could do with some maintenance, for example rusting railings that need painting and some of the wooden bedroom and balcony furniture was scratched and chipped. Breakfast was pleasant enough for a couple of days but then became rather monotonous as it was l much exactly the same every day. In addition, breakfast staff were great at clearing plates away, but not so good at topping up the breakfast dishes so there was always something that had run out or had gone cold. There is a fitness room but the multi gym was broken, the a/c did not work well and there were no free weights so it wasn't really functional. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but with a few tweaks this hotel could be even better.ll

The staff at this hotel were very lovely and helpful. It is also very beautiful as you walk in as it is all open, and almost has a miniature forest you walk through to get to your rooms and the pool/beach. We went down to the beach a few times as it was so close to the hotel. The beach is truly beautiful, white sandy beach with clear blue water. It was not very busy when we visited, but this may be due to low season. The pool was also very well kept and clean, The location of the hotel was truly great and we walked down the road most nights to find a restaurant for dinner. It was also not too far from the docks for boat trips. The breakfast in the morning was great and had loads of options, and many vegetarian choices. The only negative we had was the room service. We ordered 2 pizzas, which were made using ready made bases and very honestly not very nice. They were also quite expensive for Thailand at almost £9 each. I could probably buy something better from the supermarket for a lot less. The rooms also do not get completely dark, and you can see shadows of people walking past you. Apart from this we enjoyed our stay.

The hotel was lovely but, the staff are just so good and that is what made it perfect.

Bandara was everything we were looking for for our family holiday with a 13 and 9 year old. Great facilities, a pool we lived in, a kids club they both enjoyed and made them feel independent, and a fantastic location on the beach and edge of Fisherman’s Village. The staff were so friendly and helpful. I was also easily able to arrange a pick up from the airport which made arriving to the island very easy with kids. We couldn’t recommend Bandara high enough if you are looking for a family resort in the Bophut area of Koh Samui.

Location is a bit walk from Chaweng beach happening areas. But this brings some well deserved quiet as well. The hotel itself is perfectly arranged - everything is in close proximity. Walking from the sea to bar area is a bit walk up the stairs but frankly not an issue. Rooms were practical and well furnished.

The hotel is beautiful. The staff is awesome. The facilities and location are great. I would highly recommend it. The one thing to think about is getting off the property for lunch and dinner. The food available in the restaurants for lunch and for dinner, while tasty, is much higher in price without being better than you can get from any number of restaurants within 30 minutes. It was good, but I would get off campus for more meals if I come back. Everything else was completely top not.
