The Flow Samui Beach Resort Hotels in Koh Samui

The Flow Samui Beach Resort

"Charming  stylish hotel on the beach. Friendly staff, nice rooms, simple breakfast, good restaurant and bar. Some beach bars within walking distance. Downsides are no gym, uncomfortable beds with cheap linen, service can be slow, nothing much within walking distance so you need a scooter or to use taxis to go anywhere  For such an adult feeling hotel we were surprised by how many young families with babies and small children were staying. Made it feel a bit like a kindergarten sometimes."

ibis Samui Bophut Hotels in Koh Samui

ibis Samui Bophut

"Friendly and helpful staff, specially the Front deck staff K.Pu and another person when I checked in. Apart from arranging the room, they gave advice to how to go around and assist on practicality that I may need. The place is safe and convenient. I rent a motorcycle to go around and found it was wonderful 👍"

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."

Lamai Bayview Boutique Resort Hotels in Koh Samui

Lamai Bayview Boutique Resort

"Our sea-view room was just as described, beautiful by the sea. The room itself isn't large, but it's perfectly fine for a few days' stay. We didn't eat here; it's an 8-minute walk, and a 2-minute scooter ride away, you're on the main road with several restaurants and a 7-eleven. Cons: Matress gave me a severe backache No outlets or light switches next to the bed Some towel hooks in the shower were broken. One towel per person Pros: Super friendly staff Scooter 250 bht per day through the hotel Room cleaned daily Bed made Water, coffee, and tea Fridge Kettle Swimming pool with sea view"

"Great hotel right at the beach. The breakfast was self serve buffet style but you can also order unlimited portions of additional items from a menu. Loved the personal pool and swing."

Outrigger Koh Samui Beach Resort Hotels in Koh Samui

Outrigger Koh Samui Beach Resort

"The room floor was screeching, the property was not beachfront but advertised as beachfront. It’s a hotel with cheap owners not focused on services rather focused on charging customers for everything they could. The coconut water was also charged during breakfast. The staff on the reception was very unhelpful at night. I would never recommend anyone to stay in this hotel"

The Ritz-Carlton, Koh Samui Hotels in Koh Samui

The Ritz-Carlton, Koh Samui

"Really enjoyed our stay at the Ritz-Carlton. Special thank you to Deeb, who made us the best cocktails and was ready to get creative with whatever we requested. Chris the F & B manager introduced himself early and was always trying to ensure we were happy. Its a large hotel with lots of restaurant options, lots of buggys to take you where needed. Our room was spacious and seemed fairly newly renovated. Kids club was a highlight, lots of activities and the staff were great, the kids hardly wanted to leave."

Pavilion Samui Villas and Resort

"The hotel is really nice and the service is great. The staff was really thoughtful and available. We had a problem with electricity in the room, after reporting it to the reception a technician was at the room in the time it took me to get back to the room. The villa pool is great. Just the right size. The bed was really comfy."

Fair House Villas & Spa, Koh Samui ★★★★★
"Booked a sea view room, located on a hillside, and the views were absolutely unbeatable. The room was also spotlessly clean, and the air conditioning worked great. The breakfast buffet offered different options every day, and we also got a free hour of kayaking. The restaurant had a different themed dinner set menu every night, and the food was delicious. Very satisfied overall."
