Chaweng Cove Beach Resort
9.4 (212 reviews)

Chaweng Cove Beach Resort ★★★

📍 17 4 Chaweng Beach Rd, Bo Put, Koh Samui

"This is a good place, with excellent service, but the rooms desperately need renovation. The bathroom, and especially the shower, no longer meet minimum standards. The window didn't have a handle, and that's the only way to ventilate the room. I stayed at this hotel two years ago, and they were remodeling, but it seems they only did the rooms facing the beach. The breakfast was good. The location is fine; it's quieter south of Chaweng. The pool is good too. The bar is beautiful."

J4 Samui Hotel Hotels in Koh Samui

J4 Samui Hotel

"J4 Samui Hotel & Resort – Highly Recommended First of all, I would like to say a big thank you to a staff member named Bew. She is absolutely fantastic. I accidentally left my bank cards in an envelope inside the safety box. She tried to contact me when I was already in Bangkok, and then kindly sent everything to my address in Bangkok. I truly appreciate what she did — 5-star customer service for her. The room was small but very cozy. I loved the candle scent in the room; it was so relaxing. The bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom was modern and extremely clean. I also liked the old-style furniture, which gave a very traditional Thai feeling. The location is excellent — only a 1-minute walk to the beach. I had a great stay for 4 nights and would definitely recommend this hotel. I would happily stay here again."

"This hotel is great if you want a quieter area of Samui but right by the beach (the longest on the island). Staff are polite, friendly and helpful, breakfast is ample and the pool(s) area with bar/restaurant is simply wonderful. I left some items behind by mistake and contacted the hotel and of course I had to pay but they were very efficient in organising their return to me in China. Hope to see you again! Thanks and best wishes."

Sand Sea Beach Resort Hotels in Koh Samui

Sand Sea Beach Resort

"I had already left a review, but since we extended our stay, I would like to add one more point. The check-out process is extremely slow. It took the reception team about 30 minutes, and we almost missed our ferry because of it. When we came to check out, we were told it would take 5 minutes. After 10 minutes, we asked if everything was okay, but nobody had even gone to inspect the room. They asked us to wait another 5 minutes, and when that time passed, the room still hadn’t been checked. Only after we started complaining did one of the staff members finally go to inspect it. Even then, the inspection was done so slowly that it took another 10 minutes before they told us everything was fine. This is an unacceptably slow check-out process, and the reception team really needs to improve its efficiency."

Mantra Samui Resort, Adult Only ★★★★★
"A warm welcome from the reception staff and they were nice enough to bring us and our bags up to our room, good thing too as the hills within the hotel rooms are very steep. Extremely nice room, beautiful infinity pool overlooking Koh Samui. The breakfast is excellent with many choices you order off the menu rather than the traditional buffet style. The gym was also well equipt for a light workout. The only thing I will say is that this hotel is slightly difficult to access if you are on foot. Its not like you can take a 5 minute stroll to the main high street, its a long windy road with lots of hills and sharp turns, a car or scooter will be needed to get from the hotel to the town but aside from that its an excellent hotel and I would happily visit again."

COSI Samui Chaweng Beach ★★★
"The hotel is very close to the airport, and the surrounding area is entirely commercial. There are three motorbike rental shops opposite the hotel; the closest one is the most expensive, and the furthest one charges 200 baht a day. Although the room isn't huge, I booked a king-sized bed room for just over 180 a day during the May Day holiday – it's even cheaper than hotels in China! It's clean, and they clean it every day. Even though you have to switch elevators for buildings 2 and 3, you can directly access the mall through the back entrance. Highly recommended!"

Chaweng Cove Beach Resort ★★★
"Cons: 1. The biggest issue: the king-size bed is made up of two single beds pushed together, with two mattresses and two mattress toppers. This setup doesn't create a single, unified surface, resulting in a sloped gap in the middle. If you're sleeping three to a bed (with a child) or as a couple cuddling, someone will end up in that gap. I slept like that for all six nights and woke up with a sore back. This is the biggest drawback of this hotel, and I wouldn't recommend it if this is a critical factor for you. 2. The bed linen and towels often look worn out (not pristine white). 3. The doors (entrance, bathroom) have sagged. There's a finger-width gap between the door and the frame. This means all the mosquitoes will be in your room. 4. There's no ventilation in the room at all. The only window is fixed shut. So, to get fresh air into the room, you have to live with the door open. 5. The family deluxe bungalows are separated from the road by a wall. You sit on your veranda and stare at this wall. It feels like being in a concrete box. If they put some ivy on it, the view would be much better. 6. The breakfasts are average; there's room for improvement. There's no variety. The croissants are dense and cottony, and the muffins are heavy. There's no choice for children at all – they should add waffles and pancakes to the menu. The omelet, however, is tasty. 7. The bungalows are clustered together, with little privacy between them. 8. They don't set up tables on the sand (on the beach) in the evenings – it would have been nice to have that for a romantic dinner. 9. The hotel lacks Thai soulfulness in its decor and small details. Pros: 1. Well-maintained green grounds. The gardener does a great job. 2. Good room cleaning. 3. The hotel grounds are clean. 4. Good beach. Good sun loungers (though some are already torn at the feet and breaking down). 5. Beautiful restaurant (veranda area). 6. The family deluxe bungalow is spacious (we stayed with an 11-year-old child and it was comfortable). 7. The bungalow is very bright, with many good light sources. 8. Good service at reception. 9. They congratulated me with a cake for my birthday – a nice touch."

Bhundhari Chaweng Beach Resort Koh Samui ★★★
"Overall it's a really mixed experience. The room was comfortable, and the AC adequate. Unfortunately it's also a pretty shabby looking places, the bathroom was frankly disgusting, and on more than one occasion the bathroom ceiling leaked liquid like a waterfall, as though the person above was overflowing a running bath. This happened even after staff came to fix it one night. The staff are really nice and the housekeeping team are good, it just really needs a full renovation."
