Traveling to Thailand? Find Koh Samui hotels

For my opinion- it’s the best hotel in Koh Samui. Staff were very nice. Location super central. The vouchers’s idea was very nice. Liked to chill on the pool-floor. Recommend to ask a room on a high floor because the hotel stands in a shopping mall and the lowest rooms are close to the parking plot. Everything was great and for sure will be back to COSI again on my next travel.

After our stay in Hansar Bagkok and Hansar Koh Samui we will always if possible will stay in Hansar Hotels. We spent 30 days in Thailand for our honeymoon in varuos 5 star hotels and the breakfast was always the best at Hansar hotels. The rooms were spaciuos with high quality modern design and big bathroom. The service level at all Hansar hotels is exceptional. Good gym facilities and good drinks at the bar with 3 happy hours per day. The hotel is only 100m away from the fishermans viallge ful of many cute restaurants serving Thai and Western food. The only minus for me was Bophut beach as the sand was very rough nad it was very deep in the sea directly which meant that children could swim in the swimming pool only as in December it is very windy in Koh Samui and the waves are very big. I wish Hansar was at Chaweng or Lamai beaches. Highly recomend the stay in any Hansar hotel!

The hotel grounds are very large. Our bungalow was high up on the hill and it was quite a trek to the beach. We did not mind this as we had just spent a couple of days on Koh Tao where the bungalow was right on the beach. The water is much nicer (more clear) in Koh Tao so we were fine with spending less money at our hotel in Koh Samui even if it meant we were further from the water. The pools are very nice at this hotel. We spent several hours at the pool overlooking the beach and Gulf. We did swim in the pool but we did not swin in the Gulf. Breakfast was very nice. If you want to go into town where the action is you will need to take a shuttle or taxi. We were happy to stay away from the crowds but if you like to be at the center of things you may want a hotel closer to town. If you like to hang out at a nice pool and look at beautiful scenery without the crowds this is a good hotel. We were happy that we spent two days in Koh Tao and two days in Koh Samui as the vibes are very different (Koh Tao is better if you love nature and don't mind rustic).

Absolute heaven from beginning to end! We had booked to stay in a second floor, balcony jacuzzi room, but were informed upon arrival that we had been upgraded to a top floor ocean view jacuzzi room. The wonderful staff informed us they always try to upgrade where possible. The room was both rustic and luxurious and every need had been considered- the insect repellent and travel adaptors provided in the room were particularly helpful. The 6pm turn down service was especially thoughtful and staff came round with treats made in the Silavadee bakery. The breakfast that is included most room rates was superb and far exceeded any hotel buffet we had before. A wide range of cooked breakfast dishes could be ordered from the menu. The pool areas were fantastic, one of which has a bar to order drinks, and provided stunning views out to the sea from the infinity pools and private beach was wonderfully quiet, a luxury on Koh Samui! We dined several times at the restaurant The Height, and enjoyed of the most delicious Thai food we had during our stay on Koh Samui and found it priced similarly to other restaurants in nearby Chaweng and Lamai, both of which are a very short taxi ride away.(Silavadee also run a regular free shuttle service) Our only complaint would be that the spa facilities are incredibly expensive. Though the aromatherapy massage we booked was probably the best massage we have ever had, we still found the prices eye-watering even for a spa and especially by thai standards. We also agreed that had the prices been lower, we absolutely would have booked more treatments and likely spent considerably more overall were they value for money! The best part of our stay were absolutely the wonderfully welcoming staff who were not only helpful and informative but went out of their way to make sure our stay was as fantastic as possible. We truly can't wait to return and absolutely plan to as soon as possible. 10/10!

Definitely the best resort in Koh Samui. Everything in this place is just fine. From the professional staff, best facilities and the best food you can get ever, managed by a great chef from U.K Super value for money. This is my place in Koh Samui!.

Me and my wife had our Honeymoon in Koh Samui and stayed in this hotel in July 2019 for 9 nights. We experienced a very warm welcoming greeting as soon as we arrived in reception. Everything about the hotel was so beautiful, the location, decor, the restaurant and the room (we stayed in the beachfront balcony pool suite). The staff were always attentive and polite. You could use the handigo app to chat to staff and request room service which we both found really handy. The breakfast at the Tent restaurant was really nice too with many options and having the option to order from the menu with buffet was a plus. The only problem we faced was that there was only one panini grill which meant people who were vegetarian, or Muslim like my wife and I who only eat halal meat, were unable to use this as it had been used by other guests to grill ham sandwiches. The beachfront location was amazing and the hotel allows guests to go kayaking and paddle boarding for free.

I stayed at a Deluxe Sea View room which overlooks the restaurant and pool. The room is great! Very well furnished and spacious. Everything is very new which gave an elegant feeling. The best part of a hotel in Koh Samui is the facilities to enjoy the beach, to relax and to enjoy the time in the hotel. I love the infinity pool which overlooks the ocean. There is also a poolside bar which I enjoy having a drink while in the pool. It is a first experience for me. The restaurant serve very good and wide variety of Thai food and Western food. Food quality is good. The price is reasonable considering it is a hotel. There is also lots of daily programs in the hotel throughout the week. I can stay in the hotel without stepping out. The hotel also provide a shuttle bus to 2 nearby shopping places at a reasonable price of 50 to 100 baht.

Bandara was the perfect place to spend our time in Koh Samui. Situated on Bo Phut beach, we were immediately greeted by extremely friendly and professional staff. The hotel grounds are stunning, all gardens are manicured, there are 3 large pools (although 1 was closed for renovations, daily activities, a spa and a beach bar and restaurant.The buffet breakfast and definitely the best we experience while travelling around Thailand.The hotel is situated 15 minutes from Chaweng Beach and the hotel provides free daily shuttle services. It was great staying so close to the action, yet far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet on a much quieter beach. The Fisherman's village is also a 5 minute walk along the beach which has various restaurants, shops and bar. We were unfortunate enough to have our credit card stolen (in another hotel, however Bandara staff were more then helpful during this period whilst trying to sort out finances from the other side of the world. they went above and beyond their duty, especially the Manager Tam. We loved staying here so much we booked an extra night. Also the Deluxe rooms are very spacious and it might be worth while to request a room closer to the beach rather than the road.

I've stayed in Koh Samui many times and have driven by the Peace Resort a lot, but I've never stayed there until this trip. Now I realize that was a mistake. This is a really great little spot that I'm glad I finally discovered. The staff are all friendly and helpful, the rooms are clean and the whole place has a really nice, laid-back feel. It's like Koh Samui used to be before it was so developed. Recommended.

This is the best hotel I've ever stayed at in Thailand. Location right on the beach but still away from the busy chaweng downtown. Rooms are modern and spotless clean with everything you could possibly need. Good beds, Big balcony, shower and tub, beautiful view and even DVD player for when you need a day out of the sun. Housekeeping is flawless and comes twice a day. The breakfast is varied and very good, you can either sit inside with AC or outside in the shade with a sea view. Pool area i also spotless clean with a nice pool bar, the hotel also have plenty sunbeds on the beach with service from the bar They also have a fitness rom and a spa. Didn't try any of them but they seem popular. The staff is very helpfull and most speak good english. Only con must be the prices in the resturant are a bit high, but then again so is the rest of Koh Samui resturants.

A wonderful start to our island holiday on Koh Samui. Hotel is situated just outside of Lamai on the northern side of the beach. Wonderful location for a totally chilled few days. We stayed in a Pool View room which still had a sea view. Breakfast was amazing with poached eggs and salmon being on the menu. A wonderful start to our island holiday on Koh Samui - we will be back

i wanted to take my girlfriend on a holiday that would take her breath away. although i did keep the hotel a surprise (and may have even played it down on the way there!) the entire experience upon arrival; the location, hotel grounds, service, private beach/bay, and finally the awe inspiring villa itself ended up bringing her to tears of joy and gratitude - mission accomplished! you'll see why she had this reaction when you get there. value is everything to me. whatever i pay, if it's a little or a lot, i expect to get what i paid for. if it is a little, i expect little and i am happy with anything extra. if i pay more though, my expectations grow. i wanted to avoid all of the "fakes" that pretend to be 5 star, but was at first nervous about paying my way out of the nerves associated with poor quality...my bank account usually doesn't permit me to do so. having been to banyan tree bangkok, and now banyan tree koh samui.... i don't regret a thing. pros: everything. might sound over the top.. but it is everything you see in all of the pictures and more. we were in a villa that was almost at the top of the mountain and had uninterrupted views of the southern coast of koh samui. it was completely private (it was clearly designed to be this way), and very peaceful. every whim had been thought of and provided. the grounds are huge and you can get complimentary buggy rides wherever you need to go (breakfast, private beach, lobby etc). our host (butler?) was very helpful, and all staff speak english very well. hammock, 2 different sets of sun beds on either side of the villa, 3 separate divisions in the villa (lounge area, bedroom, and bathroom). fresh fruit every day. extensive menu for both in room or restaurant dining. "activities" every day!!! yoga at sunrise/sunset, snorkelling, kayaking etc etc... all complimentary!!! the breakfast was typical of banyan tree, completely decadent and wide ranging. everything you could want at an extremely high standard

I was looking for a resort in Koh Samui and was planning on going for a fancy 5 start but couldn’t help but notice the high rating for the Buri Rasa even though it was only a 4 star so decided to book and give it a try. We booked a deluxe garden court with dip pool. The stay was flawless. Comfortable bed, spacious room and the dip pool is pretty decent. The resort is well maintained and on a really good (and clean) part of the beach. It’s a lot smaller than most so you get a much more personalized service. It’s also is in the main part of town so there are plenty of things to see and do (and eat) right outside your doorstep. What really sets this place apart is the staff. They are friendly, helpful and go above and beyond to make your stay memorable. Little things like remembering our anniversary in a casual conversation and surprising us with an anniversary cake! You won’t get that level of service anywhere else. P.S, my wife was a big fan of the champagne at the breakfast buffet! We will be back.

Crystal Bay Yacht Club is located on a beautiful part of the beach in Koh Samui. The bungalows are a great size and clean. The shower is separated from the rest of the bathroom by a divider so you don't have the typical Asian wet bathroom floor. The restaurant is a little pricy for Koh Samui, but really well priced for a resort. Restaurant staff are very friendly, switched on and speak english well. Thai massage is offered on site overlooking the beach for a very reasonable price and the masseuses are very talented. As someone in the fitness industry who has spent a lot of time and money on physiotherapists, myotherapists and masseuses (in both the western world and Asia), Ticha, Dai and Noi know what they are doing. This shows as they are busy all day long! There isn't too much walking distance from the resort but we rented a scooter to get about, and also booked our trip to Koh Phangan via reception. For anyone who needs to work while they are travelling - as we did, the internet at Crystal Bay is reliable and as fast as you will get on the island. It seemed to be a great place for families with younger children, and we could take our parents there and they would be comfortable. Definitely would return. We are a mid-30s couple who work remotely and travel regularly.

We loved here everything, we went to try other hotel (was planned before we arrived to Koh samui) and we loved Casa de mar so much that we came back again and stayed there all vacation in koh samui! It's amazing! The food, the place, the drinks, the team, the happy hours (!!!) qnd the seafood and grill bufet(!!) amazing!! Thank you!

wow what a great hotel we stayed at some average hotels in Koh Samui then we decided to try six sense resort and were blown away with everything, I will be back again

It was an excellent and a very memorable experience staying in Conrad Koh Samui. The location is quite remote, but the view there and their beach will worth everything. It would be best to rent a car and drive. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Very smooth check-in with a very detailed introduction of the resort. Housekeeping is very efficient too. You go outside for a walk and some photos, you come back and the room is already cleaned. I did not realize I got a nail in my tire until a staff called and told me one of my tires lost all the air. I was trying to change the wheel by myself. The security staff saw me and suddenly 3 other staff came over and had my wheel changed in a minute. It was a very enjoyable stay. Highly recommend the Conrad Koh Samui to anyone who wants a great and relaxing vacation.

We had a fantastic week in koh samui largely due to thai beach resort. While the rooms are simple, they are very comfortable and have everything you might need, including air con, beach towels toiletries. The pool is perfect, with massage available by the pool, and direct access to a beach area with loungers and a dedicated swim area. Staff are amazing and will bring drinks straight to your sun lounger! Bonus- the amazing breakfast buffet! Highly recommend this hotel, likely best in lamai for price.

First time in KOH Samui the experience was amazing, this hotel is close to everything. The price was also affordable. The rooms were clean, great pool

We stayed in Koh Samui to relax on the beach after a stressful and exhausting time in Siem Reap and Chiang Mai. We loved the beach and the comfortable room, however we were a little put off by the whole Lamai area. It was full of European tourists and cheesy bars which were not our style. We found some good places to eat in town but were generally tired of the whole area. We did love the beach and spent most of our time relaxing in the water and getting cheap massages. We also took a cab to a waterfall and hiked to the top to swim in the cool water. It was a great addition to the beach and I highly recommend going to one of the beautiful waterfalls in Koh Samui. We happily avoided the elephant and wildlife shows and hiked along the waterfall for free, finishing off with a wonderful dip in the cool water. Lamai Wanta Resort was a great hideaway from the craziness of Lamai and I would probably stay there again if ever in Lamai again.

We stayed at three different hotels during our short week on Koh Samui and this was the preferred hotel of the three. We stayed in the beachfront room and moved to the garden room which it turned out was somewhat smaller but also quieter and more private than the beachfront room. As many of these resorts, checkout involved waiting five minutes for the maid to check to see if you've broken anything. Some hotels, such as this on, handle this better than others. Overall a good value hotel if Lamai beach is your selected location on the island.

The Chaweng Cove is rather far from the main "action" of the Chaweng beach road but worth it as the price & accommodations are a good value for your money. You will find cheaper or much better (I've been in both in Koh Samui) but this is a good choice I would repeat. Pickups will take you along the main road for if you're lazy... The beach is great with chairs, umbrellas & a bar service (sea sports prices are the same along the beach anyway. Pools are 50m from the water line. We didn't eat in the hotel as we wanted as much Thai local food (& Starbucks morning) but other people said it was OK+. Front desk people were friendly, helpful & helped in all requests (tour booking, late check out). I'll be back.

I consider this hotel to be the best hotel in Koh Samui. I had a good value for the money paid and all other services provided were perfect. The breakfast we had was one of the best that we had in Thailand and the bar was very comfortable specially with the beds idea.

Chaba Samui Hotel as an amazing location. Located in the middle of Chaweng Beach, the beach front is one of the best (and I did walk all the way to both ends of the beach). Not too close to city center, not too much South where the beach is getting rocky and sand rarefies. The nightlife is not too present, not too much noise if you are in the Ocean Building. The hotel in 2019 was in between two vacant spaces so the rooms give direct view on very nice high trees. The swimming pool is comfortable and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere. Highlights: Personal was REALLY nice ans smiling all the time, remembering me etc. They have small emergency item and services (lock saw, additional glasses etc). Thanks to the deposit you can eat without paying directly. Downsides: Towels MUST be changed before 7pm. If not, you cannot get a new towel until next morning.... The shower is hot and cold a bit when it wants (It's a bit everywhere in Thailand though) I would recommend !

It is an excellent experience for me to stay in Pavilion Samui Boutique Resort. All the staff is very helpful, especially the manager in frontdesk. They helped me to make fleet reservation, introducing the nice place in Koh Samui, provide warm welcome to us. Besides, it is very thoughtful that they sent notification to every guest that a wedding will be held in the beach and as well as firework, so it may be a little bit noisy.

I loved my stay at the Montien House Hotel. The hours I spent reading hotel reviews online certainly paid off with this choice. We stayed in a one bedroom pool villa which I got for a great price by booking through Agoda. The hotel is in a prime location in the middle of Chaweng beach, close to restaurants, bars, shopping and pretty much anything you could ask for. The beach out front of the hotel is nice enough, but just a 5-10 minute walk south brings you to the clearest and most beautiful part of the beach. The hotel is just far enough away from the neighboring Ark Bar to not be disturbed by the club music that pumps out of there starting at 10 or 11am each day. The service at the hotel was fantastic - some places think good service means being in your face all the time. This place gets it just right - someone is always there when you need something but otherwise you are pretty much left alone. The one downside might be the small size of the main pool (which is often filled with children splashing), but with our own private pool, this wasn't an issue for us. I would highly recommend this hotel for a relaxing and enjoyable stay in Koh Samui.

We stayed at the W-retreat for 7 nights on our honeymoon. This place is absolutely amazing, the staff are the most friendly, genuine people you could ever meet, they felt like family to us and we were so sad to leave. We really can't wait to get back to Koh Samui and stay at the W, we hired a scooter and drove around to the many other hotels in Koh Samui, this included Banyan Tree and Tongsai Bay I am pleased to say that staying at the W was the best decision we have ever made none of these hotels come close to comparing. We will definitely be coming back to stay at the W. We miss all of the staff at the w

We loved it here!! The staff was wonderful- very sweet and helpful. The location was beach front on a semi-private beach ( we were there during off-season so there were no crowds whatsoever. ) The room we stayed in was extremely comfortable and clean- we stayed in the pool access king room. Slippers, robes, water and fruit was provided upon arrival. AC worked great, TV worked with a couple of English speaking channels and there are DVDs up front at the desk if you need em. We aren't really TV people, but it was nice to have the option while it was raining. We rented a motorbike for 300Baht per day at the resort to get around town. Food was fantastic... Our room included breakfast, which was wonderful in the restaurant overlooking the ocean. The ONLY notable bummer was the wifi only really worked in the front desk area and sometimes on the patio in the room. Not a big deal, but we chose to gamble by going to Koh Samui during Monsoon season and there was a significant storm. So, with a lack of pool days, it would've been a little more relaxing to work from the room rather than having to walk to the front desk to work. Not bad for normal vacations, in which we wouldn't be so dependent on wifi and if it wasn't raining so hard, working from the patio would've been no problem. The weather put a slight damper on our trip, which is in no way the resort's fault. The warm water in the shower was a little temperamental, but whatever. You're going to an island for vacation. These things happen. The spa was expensive ( western, not thai prices) but there are plenty of places a short motorbike ride away. We will definitely return if we stay on Koh Samui again.

One of our best stays in Koh Samui.. absolutely flawless, decent and courteous staff.. service was excellent, good breakfast and meals spread, Beautiful views of ocean and hill from the hotel room, infinity pool experience. Hotel provides complimentary shuttle service to all main locations in Samui but needs to increase the frequency. Will definitely recommend and surely return to this place.
