Bhundhari Chaweng Beach Resort Koh Samui
8.7 (206 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 ★★★★★

📍 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 Hotels in Koh Samui

Wild Cottages Luxury and Natural Lamai

"Wild Cottages is the best hotel we have stayed in during our travels through Thailand. The room was beautiful, clean and the attention to detail was immaculate. The kitchen was well stocked and easy to use. The views (despite the rain) were stunning and the outside facilities made our stay. The pool was the highlight of the room for us! The location is great but to be honest we didn’t want to leave the room as it was so lovely. The staff definitely made our experience though. Each member of staff we met were so nice, attentive and welcoming. Thank you very much to everyone who looked after us. A true luxury experience while being surrounded by beautiful nature."

Bhundhari Resort & Villas Samui Hotels in Koh Samui

Bhundhari Resort & Villas Samui

"We stayed at this resort for 6 nights. The price was very affordable, and based on the photos online, the resort looked really beautiful. However, in reality, it doesn’t look the same. The outdoor areas are very dirty and poorly maintained. It seems like they are not cleaned or looked after regularly. On the other hand, the rooms themselves are very clean and nicely furnished. At first, we stayed in a standard room where only the bed was inside a closed room, while the shower and toilet were located outdoors. If you’re afraid of animals or insects, this can be quite unpleasant. Especially at night and after it rains, there are frogs, lizards, and various insects in the shower and toilet. The next day, we informed the reception about this. They kindly upgraded us to a Deluxe Room free of charge, where the shower and toilet were also inside the enclosed room. We really appreciated this gesture. All of the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. They always did their best to accommodate our requests and made us feel welcome throughout our stay. The location is not ideal, as the resort is about a 15-minute drive from Chaweng Beach. Every taxi ride costs around 400 THB, and the nearest 7-Eleven is about 1 km away."

"I think Ctrip was really helpful in upgrading my room at this hotel. The first room I booked was just so-so and felt a bit odd. So I called Ctrip and they helped me get an upgrade. The new room was quite nice; although the facilities were a little old, it was very clean, and the staff were exceptionally good."

"The hotel is good for young families. I went with my elderly parents, so it was difficult for them to move around, due to there being many steps everywhere. The service staff is generally very good, and the food is good too. Now for the areas of improvement: 1) On our first day at the beach, there was some miscommunication with a server. We asked for a drinks menu and it took him 20 mins to get it to us, so in the meantime, we decided what we want to get. When he finally came to us and we have him the order, he got upset that we didn't even look at the menu. After that, he got the order wrong. This wasn't entirely his fault, there was a genuine miscommunication, but again, he was very rude to my father about it. Then he started rolling his eyes and shaking his head at my dad. Who is 81 by the way. Luckily, the other days, we had different staff helping us and they were wonderful. 2) Housekeeping: Not the best. The room was quite dusty. Floor was quite sandy too. Tip: Ask for sea facing rooms. The other rooms are a little darker and the ground floor rooms can occasionally have a drainage smell, as the drain system is right outside the room."

The Stay Chaweng Beach Resort ★★★★
"Actually the rooms are good but the bathroom has no wall or a curtain for dush and it gets easily wet, on the otherside pool and restaurant is cool but very little chairs or lying places. Many israeli tourists interestingly, even in the morning all places are reserved. You can not enjoy the poolside. They have to solve it. Plus point: you can easily book a motorcycle vie hotel"

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! 🌴✨"

"We had the most beautiful honeymoon stay here. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcomed and cared for. Their kindness and attention to detail truly made a difference and made our stay feel extra special. The studio space is a huge advantage and adds such a unique and meaningful touch to the experience. The class we joined was incredibly special, fun, relaxing, and something we will always remember from our honeymoon. The food was excellent, both at the restaurant and during breakfast. Everything was fresh, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared. The beach is absolutely beautiful and very quiet, which made it perfect for a peaceful and romantic getaway. We could not have chosen a better place to celebrate this special time in our lives. Highly recommended for honeymoon couples looking for something intimate, unique, and unforgettable."
