The Privilege Hotel Ezra Beach Club
8.6 (141 reviews)

The Privilege Hotel Ezra Beach Club ★★★★

📍 5/1 Moo 4 Bangrak Beach T Koh Samui, Surat Thani, Bo Put, Koh Samui

"I booked a deluxe room with sea view. The room was on the ground floor with a view to the pool. Technically, you could see at the very end of the long pool, between the heads of the people swimming, the blue of the sea. It is very disappointing to book a sea view room and get this, it is not the room in the pictures. Lightning was awful, very bright. You could have of all light on or none of them."

Bhundhari Chaweng Beach Resort Koh Samui
8.7 (213 reviews)

Bhundhari Chaweng Beach Resort Koh Samui ★★★

📍 4/12 Moo 3 Chaweng Beach, Bo Put, Koh Samui

"The hotel's excellent location, essentially between two beaches, is ideal. The main drawback, in our opinion, is the lack of beach chairs and umbrellas on Chaweng Noi Beach from this hotel. Guests are forced to either walk to the main Chaweng Beach or wander around Chaweng Noi without an umbrella."

Samaraya Wellness Resort
9.1 (3 reviews)

Samaraya Wellness Resort ★★★★★

📍 7/5 Moo 3, Lipa Noi, Koh Samui

"We stayed here for 6 nights and everything from arrival to departure was simply perfect! The staff are so kind and welcoming. The whole resort is immaculately clean and very modern. Our room was gorgeous and just like the photos. Our room was cleaned everyday and fresh towels on request. The spa is beautiful with experienced and trained therapists. The pilates reformers are brand new and the gym space generally is clean and modern and well designed. All equipment is new! The breakfast every morning was fresh and delicious. I’d highly recommend staying here."

Wild Cottages Luxury and Natural Lamai

"We were very satisfied in the Wild Cottage. Everything was perfect, absolutely clean, new and nice apartments. But the best thing besides the sea view is the service of the staff. Everyone was very nice, contactable and helpful. Thank you Wild Cottage, we will be back next year. Tereza and Tomas."

Bhundhari Resort & Villas Samui Hotels in Koh Samui

Bhundhari Resort & Villas Samui

"Room was gorgeous but not well looked after, bath seemed old had cracks and obvious signs of wear and tear. The a/c didn’t work very well don’t know if it was the remote to ac connection but would take many attempts every time we wanted to turn it on or off. Really far from everything, it’s okay if you have a bike or car but keep in mind there’s no shops within walking distance and there’s no walking path along those roads it’s quite dangerous to try to get around anywhere by foot. Overall was a good experience because the bungalow was stunning and the beach too but would expect better maintenance for the price."

Vows Villa Beachfront Hotels in Koh Samui

"What an absolutely stunning place with the most amazing staff. From the Gardener, cleaning staff,receptionists and waiters and waitresses all of them are phenomenal, this was not my first trip and the staff made a decorations saying welcome back home and they truly made it an experience of it being home. Although this part of Koh Samui is quieter it was what I was looking for and perfect, I would suggest renting a car to get around. Thank you Vows Villa for making my trip so special"

Santiburi Koh Samui Hotels in Koh Samui

Santiburi Koh Samui

"We arrived at our first hotel in Samui, a well-established five-star hotel. Since it was midweek, it wasn't crowded. There were almost no Asians, and the majority were Caucasians. It's about 30 minutes from the airport, making taxis very convenient. There's little to do nearby, though, and a 7-Eleven is a 10-minute drive away, making it a great place to stay. Taxis are a bit pricey in Samui, costing around 100 RMB. The ambiance was stunning, like being in the jungle. The hotel thoughtfully upgraded us to a spacious villa. The beach was not far away, with fine sand. The hotel staff, from management to housekeeping, were very welcoming. We had dinner at the hotel's beach house, and the seafood platter was delicious."

The Sarann Koh Samui, Suites & Villas ★★★★
"This hotel/resort was truly amazing. The view is unbeatable and the pool is amazing. You also get beach access (2min walk) and is a quite beach. You are around 15-18 minutes away from chewang area which makes it a perfect balance if you are looking for peace but also don’t want to be super far from the main things in the island. The room itself was amazing. We had an awesome sea view and the bed was nice. For the price, it was a reasonable room size and great amenities. The breakfast is the one thing I would say it’s less enjoyable. It was normal, nothing wow. The staff were nice and always willing to help with a big smile."

"The rooms at this hotel were absolutely fantastic! They were spotless, comfortable, and well-equipped. The soft beds ensured a perfect night's sleep. The bathrooms were clean and spacious, with plenty of hot water. What's more, the soundproofing in the rooms was excellent; we couldn't hear any outside noise at all. The service was incredibly warm and attentive, making us feel right at home. I'll definitely choose this place again next time. Highly recommended!"

From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and well taken care of. 🏊♂️ The swimming pool was fantastic — beautiful, clean, refreshing, and perfect for relaxing and enjoying quality family time. 🍳 The breakfast was excellent — delicious, fresh, varied, nutritious, and satisfying. There was a great selection, and everyone in our family found something they loved. ⭐ The service was truly exceptional. One of the hotel staff members deserves a special mention for his outstanding service. He was incredibly kind, friendly, attentive, professional, and always willing to help. His warm attitude made our stay even more enjoyable. The room was comfortable and clean, the atmosphere throughout the hotel was wonderful, and everything was well maintained. Without a doubt, one of the best hotel experiences we had during our trip! We are extremely happy we chose this hotel and would gladly return in the future. Highly recommended! ❤️🙏"

"We really loved this hotel. The room was large, comfortable, and beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast with its spectacular view, as well as the delicious and tropical menu options. The staff was friendly, helpful, and made us feel very comfortable. The location isn't far from the main street, but it is a long walk to get there, though the hotel offers a free shuttle service."

Silavadee Pool Spa Resort ★★★★★
"We had an amazing stay at Silavadee Resort and would definitely recommend it for a relaxing holiday in Koh Samui. We stayed in an ocean-view room, and the views were absolutely beautiful waking up to the sea every morning was a real highlight. The room was excellent: very comfortable, spotless, and finished to a high standard. Housekeeping was great and paid attention to every detail. They provide useful extras such as slippers, beach bags, yoga mats, and everything you might need for a comfortable stay. Through the resort app, you can easily request extra towels, toothbrushes, makeup-removal kits, or other amenities. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and always happy to help. There are golf buggies available to take you around the resort, which is very convenient, especially because the property is quite large and hilly. Reception is always staffed, and there is secure parking with 24/7 surveillance. One of the things we liked most was the resort app. You can check all the available services, contact reception, book spa treatments, reserve restaurant tables, request room items, and organise much of your stay directly from your phone. Very practical and well designed. The facilities are fantastic: two swimming pools, a private beach, four restaurants, a spa, a small gym, and activities such as kayaking and Muay Thai classes. There are also different types of accommodation, from regular rooms to villas with private pools, so it is suitable for couples, families, or special occasions. 🏝️ The food was excellent. We highly recommend including breakfast: the buffet has a huge variety of options for all tastes, including made-to-order omelettes, salmon, lobster rolls, fresh fruit, pastries, and genuinely excellent barista coffee. ☕️ Breakfast was one of the best parts of our stay. Dinner was also very good, with plenty of choice and high-quality ingredients across the resort’s restaurants. During our stay, there was a wedding at the hotel. It only occupied part of the beach for a few hours and did not really disturb us, but the hotel still gave us chocolates as an apology for any possible inconvenience, a very thoughtful gesture. The wedding also included fireworks in the evening, which looked beautiful. It seems like a wonderful place for a wedding or special celebration. At the end of August, the hotel was very quiet and peaceful, which made the experience even more relaxing. The resort offers a free shuttle service to Chaweng and another nearby area, which is very useful. There is also a motorbike-rental shop close to the hotel that we highly recommend if you want to explore the island independently rather than relying on Grab. The only small negative point is that the gym is very small, so it may feel limited if you are used to doing full workouts with a lot of equipment. Overall, Silavadee is a beautiful, peaceful, and very well-run resort with outstanding service, excellent food, great facilities, and lots of thoughtful details. We would happily return and highly recommend it! 🌴✨"

There are many thoughtful little touches in the villa. We tried the local restaurant's cuisine and liked it, though the prices were above average. Thank you, I will recommend it!"
