Koh Phangan hotellia

Plussat: Staffs are friendly, professional and attentive. Feel very warm welcome and happy during my stay. I got a birthday surprise cake on my birthday which was something not really expect but so happy surprise. Thank you everyone at made my short trip so memorable.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Perfect location and stunning setting, very peaceful and ideal for a relaxing holiday.

Miinukset: Size of the pool area

Plussat: Great location, amazing beach and wonderfully friendly staff especially Bob the barman

Plussat: We loved the peace and quiet, just what we needed. We will be back

Miinukset: We wish that we had been able to stay longer.

Plussat: Good food and good service.

Miinukset: Taxi and car service is expensive.

Plussat: צוות המלון היה אדיב ושירותי החדרים עצמם נעימים נוחים ומרווחים

Miinukset: הריחוק מהמרכז היווה לעתים בעיות אך מנגד מהווה אזור שקט הרחק מההמולה של העיר

Plussat: We liked everything, literally! From the room we stayed at to the beach, and the food served at the restaurant which is straight on the beach. The beachfront bar was great as well! The staff were outstanding, especially a big thanks to Sarah, she is an amazing person and runs the hotel like no one else there, very capable at what she does, with lots of dedication and passion, meaning your holiday there can not go wrong! Thank you Sarah for every single arrangement you made during our stay. See you next year!

Miinukset: Maybe a suggestion about the pool area: would be nice for the pool to be more reachable for the guests who also like to spend an afternoon at the pool but don’t have a room booked right next to the pool (room with pool view or pool access).

Plussat: Loved the stay ! Excellent hotel providing Peace and tranquality !

Miinukset: The staff at reception were not very fluent in english and always felt there was a language barrier . Other room service and resturant staff were excellent .

Plussat: The hotel was lovely- great location, with lots of bars and restaurants nearby. The staff were friendly and helpful

Miinukset: service was slow, whether ordering drinks or food or even the bill. The sea was rocky and lots of glass on the beach.

Miinukset: Slow internet

Plussat: Lähes kaikki oli hyvin. Alla muutamia parannusehdotuksian

Miinukset: Huoneissa voisi olla kokovartalopeili . Joissakin huoneissa ei ollut pistorasioita sängyn vieressä Ravintolaan ehdotan pieniä roskakuppeja pöytiin aamiaiselle: roskat lentelevät muuten tuulen mukana Hammastikkuja jokaiseen pöytään !! Huolestuttavaa oli hotellin takana oleva joki, joka virtaa suoraan mereen: se oli todella likainen ja törkyinen. Siitä virtaava vesi voi olla terveysriski joen lähellä uiville asiakkaille.

Plussat: Everything! The staff are exceptional and the property and beach are beautifully maintained. Buri Rasa Phangan will now be where I choose to spend my down time and escape the Sydney winter.

Miinukset: It’s not a criticism as I’m not entirely sure what the noise was and if is avoidable, but what sounded like a generator on the roof of the restaurant puts a bit of a dampener of the ambience. A potential quick fix could be some sound proofing around the unit?

Plussat: Amazing hotel in fabulous bay on the north of Koh Phangan - beautiful room with private plunge pool - staff amazing

Miinukset: Didn’t eat in hotel as prices are high - happy hour was good value and lots of places to eat in the village behind the hotel as well as a fab beach bar further down the beach

Plussat: Everything was perfect ! We had a room with seaview, with a little swimming pool in the terrasse. The bathroom and bedroom was very clean and beautiful, and each detail is took in consideration. You have a direct access to the beach (1mn walk from the room). The restaurant and spa are also very good. The staff was very nice, and we enjoy the romantic dinner on the beach. We will come back soon !

Miinukset: Unfortunately during the romantic dinner on the beach, it start to rain so we have to move inside so it was a “normal” diner but very good food. and we didn’t see the chef cook in front of us because of the rain but it’s not the fault of Anantara !! The bad point was that we have to leave the hotel !!!!

Plussat: The Hotel was amazing, clean, good location on the beach, the staff was super helpful and so nice to us and to the other guests. From GM to F&B Manager all made our stay amazing.

Miinukset: Access not so good with baby strollers or handicap people. To many stairs everywhere and not a single ramp.

Plussat: Everything. Beautiful place, amazing rooms, nicest staff.

Miinukset: Regarding location- there is a small town near the hotel, it has some bars and restaurants, but seeing beautiful sunsets or going to the full moon party took a long drive.

Plussat: Amazing location. Beautiful beach with stunning views. The location suited us perfectly as we had the luxury of the resort or could stroll out into the little village behind if we felt like it. Breakfast was more than ample with a very large selection of hot or cold offerings to choose from. The food in the restaurant we found consistently delicious. The staff were charming and were wonderful with my daughter. We are already planning our return trip!

Plussat: The service was impecable, the amenities and rooms were amazing. We stayed in a pool villa, highly recommended.

Miinukset: There is nothing to list here

Plussat: Clean, decorated and very comfortable rooms. The stuff is very friendly and useful. The half day private is amazing.

Plussat: Nice touch since the welcoming process. Breakfast was great and the location was perfect. Staff at all area had genuine service minded. Commended to Pla (FO) she was such a caring person and professional; Tua (FB) was so energetic and helpful; Housekeeping who attended my room (24) was delightful and Chef Goff he was so kind and so patient with us when he conducted the cooking class, these people were AMAZING. They made us feel like VIPs throughout the stay. Room and its facilities were really impressive. The garden was the attractive one, well maintained, I love this exotic tropical garden. All in all we had the fabulous stay and they have stolen our hearts from another luxury resort of the different hotel brand.

Miinukset: The bidet in guest bathroom was way too hard and the water pressure then was too high. Movie night (Frozen) on the beach destroyed the ambiance of Thai Food Theme at the dining area. I'd like to see more standardized taste of The Dry Martini and Pina Colada, in my opinion, nothing wrong with them but people always have expected taste of the classic/ basic cocktails. Last but not least, I think that it would be completely perfect if your resort manager (if I was not mistaken, it was the tall foreigner guy wearing dark blue shirt with the tensed look) could walk around with a bit of smile- being more friendly.

Plussat: We stayed at Anantara for 5 days, which were absolutely perfect. The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are spacious and calm but what is particularly stricking is the kindness and professionalism of the staff - at the reception, the beach (special thanks to Jackson) and the restaurant. Anything you could expect from a 5 star hotel and more!

Plussat: Our room was amazing with a beautiful view on the bay, the beach was very clean, the staff was super friendly. Overall it was a super experience.

Miinukset: The fact that we couldn't walk back to the room, we needed to get a touk touk (very hilly). However the service was amazing, once called we usually only waited couple of minutes for the touk touk.

Plussat: We stayed in the deluxe Jacuzzi suite it exceeded our expectation...We had the most amazing time. Aing and the rest of the staff went out if their way. Most beautiful fabulous holiday.

Plussat: Everything you can dream of is at Panviman! The team is amazing and helpful. The rooms are so beautiful. The rent kayak, snorkeling mask,... for free ! Infinity pool with view on the best beach of the island. We will never forget this moment.

Miinukset: - It’s far away from the center but you know it beforehand. However there are plenty of restaurants just next to the resort. - high price at the restaurant

Plussat: Everything the resort is amazing

Plussat: Not much. Staff was nice and helpful. Bath tub with a view was nice.

Miinukset: Located on a hill. Private small beach overcrowded. Noisy eventhough it was low season. Had to call for a tuk tuk to go anywhere. We actually left the hotel to go to another beach. We order in room food service : one word : disgusting (frozen pizza and fridge tasting ceaser salad). We walked to the Anantara to have a nice meal instead for the same price

Plussat: Wonderefull resort with super friendly stuff. Super clear rooms, delicious breakfasts. Private hotel beach is quite small but 10 meters ahead there is another beautifull beach. There is a small village near the hotel with nice restaurants. 7 eleven is 1 minute from the hotel. The hotel is situated on the hill but on your call there is a free shuttle driving around the resort. I would really recommend stay in Panviman. Magic Place!

Plussat: Incredible standard and even better views!

Plussat: Everything! Amazing staff, breakfast, dinner, we had executive pool Villa 6108 which was fantastic. Can't remember this place enough. Mini bar not expensive, great facilities. Very clean. Definitely would recommend and would be back. Loved the special touches for our 11th anniversary as well.

Miinukset: Nothing, everything was perfection

Plussat: The paradise We got a pool villa. View over the bay

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Our ocean view pool villa room was exceptional! It was a dreamy room with all the details thought out perfectly. Restaurants were very good and room service was great too! Spa was very nice and speedboat transfers and overall staff were wonderful attentive and dealt with any issues immediatly! We definitely will be back and would recommend, just check the seasons as we didn’t realize it was rainy season and it did rain everyday so we didn’t use our private pool much.

Miinukset: We came during Rainy season which wasn’t the resorts fault.

Plussat: Everything! View from the pool was amazing!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Aamiainen oli todella hyvä.Huoneesta näkyi suoraan merelle,todellä hieno näköala.suosittelen tätä hotellia kaikille.

Plussat: Nice quiet location with good path to the main village. Beautiful rooms with great views, Amazing swimming pool and friendly and helpful staff.

Miinukset: The fact they make you sign a paper declairing your not going to smoke anywhere appart the designated smoking area. I Believe that if you pay for an appartment you can at least smoke in the balcony rather by the pool next to children playing. Also the room was stated with a kitchen but there was no hob so we couldn't cook anything. Only microwave and toaster is available and before they sent us an e mail asking if we want to go and buy food from a store. If i actually went to the store annd bought food it would have been a great waste.

Plussat: Absolutely beautiful location with stunning views over the bay, and very helpful, friendly staff. The rooms are well designed so that you have privacy from the other balconies, and are very tastefully decorated with lots of thoughtful touches. Minibar was a plus! And not charged at ridiculous prices. We live on the island but wanted to get away for a 'vacation experience' without having to go far, and this was the perfect spot. Wonderful pool, not too chlorinated. We appreciated the very useful paved pathway down to the village and beach, was nice not to have to drive down to the village. Will definitely return.

Miinukset: Everything was great!

Plussat: The view was amazing

Miinukset: The stairs to the town

Plussat: Very nice apartments with a beautiful garden. Great location with sunrise-view. In the small village you'll find everything you need including good restaurants and bars.

Plussat: The views are spectacular, the beds are large and more comfortable than clouds, the apartments were spotless and everything worked perfectly. The staff spoke english and were very friendly and hospitable. Walking distance to the beach, restaurants, motorbike rentals, and thai massages too! We loved our stay.

Miinukset: The only problem was the family did not want to leave! Had a hard time to persuade them to come back home.

Plussat: Great service, clean and comfortable room, easy to organise shuttle

Plussat: Everything Perfect view Good kitchen

Miinukset: Non

Plussat: Nice garden, perfect pool area, spacious and good equipped room. Very beautiful beach

Miinukset: I have booked in advance and the price was double as the current room prices. So never book in advance! You do not get any "gratuity" for it. There is a lot of mosquitoes. On the beach you will not have your own sunbeds and it is problem to find any.

Plussat: Absolutely loved our stay.. the staff were lovely, the room is huge and very clean, the pool is lovely and quiet. The location is lovely, very nice beach and gorgeous village with lovely restaurants and bars!

Plussat: It was just amazing! The best ressort I‘ve ever been to. We stayed in one of the pool villas which was absolutely amazing, complete privacy with an amazing seaview and an outside bathroom!great staff, exceptional food! We‘ll be back for sure- we loved it!

Plussat: Breakfast was good. The pool and the waterfall were great. Overall atmosphere was relaxed

Miinukset: We were charged for extra person fee which i wasnt aware of.

Plussat: Stunning hotel with greenery everywhere and beautiful traditional Thai architecture. The staff were amazing, always willing to help and they’re super friendly. We stayed in the “Hideaway Villa”, which we loved for its private pool and spacious room. We joined the evening buffets, it’s great value for money. It’s also so convenient that we could take a speedboat directly from the hotel’s pier to Koh Samui at a reasonable price.

Miinukset: Such a random thing, and can easily be improved, is the room’s doorbell; we could never hear it and we aren’t sure if it was just our villa, or if it’s the same in all rooms. It’s not a regular doorbell sound, so very easy not to notice it.

Plussat: Villa / view and chill out zone

Miinukset: Some staff people could be more polite Cleaning

Plussat: We really enjoyed our stay in this hotel. Everyone was so friendly. Food was excellent.

Plussat: Breakfast was amazing! So many different options and the beds were very comfy.

Plussat: Breakfast buffet was unbelievable, yummy chocolate pastries! Restaurant food was lovely. Staff were super friendly.. Room was just amazing with our own private infinity pool! Pool located right on the beach so had choice of either to cool down! Free kayaking and paddle boarding on the beach also!

Miinukset: Only downfall was that there were lizards very close to dinner table and the location was quite far from main strip.

Plussat: Beautiful decoration , location, people working there. Diffère from all the rest

Miinukset: Perfection doesn’t exist but they do their best to reach it

Plussat: We liked the room, it was beautiful. We also liked that our block of apartments had their own pool. The breakfast was great, a great selection and it was all delicious. The spa was wonderful, they had a good happy hour deal and the staff were wonderful. The resort has carriages that carry you around the resort, from your room to the reception/restaurant/spa/pool and back again at no extra cost. I also liked the jungle setting of the resort, it felt quite secluded but was so close to many restaurants and bars and another busy beach.

Miinukset: The drink prices at the restaurant and bar were very steep for Thailand. The fishermen’s buffet they have a on a Saturday was quite disappointing as I don’t eat meat, only fish. I was expecting mostly fish options, whereas it was a lot of chicken/pork/duck. Most of the staff were absolutely delightful, especially the 2 ladies who showed us to our room but there were a couple who seemed like they couldn’t be bothered with us and one lady who had forgotten to give us our cappuccinos didn’t apologise at all.

Plussat: We are a family of four who stayed in a Grand Villa for ten days. We thought the Grand Villa was exceptional. It was spacious, comfortable, cool, well equipped and it was serviced at least twice a day to a very high standard. The location of the resort is stunning. Our accommodation was private, a good distance away from other accommodation with a good view of the sea from the jungle setting. The transfer including 30 minute speedboat journey was excellent both ways and the check in process was welcoming and comprehensive. The main pool is sizeable and spectacular with views over the resort beach and it has feature waterfalls which give it real character. The main pool is safe for children and has paddling pools for very small children above and below it. Limitless pool towels available. Breakfast is a magnificent spread and over ten days none of us had the same meal twice. The resort never felt crowded and the level of service was generally very high. It is very family friendly - children's activities such as Thai boxing, ceramics painting, paper folding were excellent and efficiently run. Also kayaking and paddle boarding are activities in which children could participate because of the safe, shallow waters at the front of the resort. The ten minute walk to the local village is easy for all and safe. The dining options in the village are good and reasonably priced, and they all welcome children. The wide range of nationalities represented by guests creates a good atmosphere, which is generally quiet and relaxed. The resort is spread out on a hillside but a 24 hour free taxi service within the resort is efficient, timely and availability was always excellent.

Miinukset: Having had a superb ten day stay, we were disappointed by the check out process. We received two calls from reception on our final night telling us to be at reception by 0800hrs to check out. When we got there at that time we were told to come back at 0840hrs while "the room is checked". When we returned at 0840hrs we were told "a pillow is missing but the room is still being checked". Subsequently we were told "there is no problem with the pillow". The accusative tone of the staff member and the perfunctory and clunky process was completely out of line from the rest of our experience and during check out we did not feel like valued guests of a high quality resort. One air conditioning unit didn't switch on when we returned to our accommodation from breakfast one day but it was repaired promptly and we had no other issues with it. One of our safes wouldn't unlock twice but both times the problem was rectified within ten minutes of us reporting it. The resort markets itself as an eco resort but the taxis are petrol and/or diesel powered. The quality of the water in the main pool varied on a day by day basis - sometimes it was crystal clear, on other days it is was very cloudy. The food and drink available to buy at the resort is generally double the price of the same items in shops and restaurants in the nearby village. Service at the bar and restaurant on the beach was sometimes poor relative to the prices charged and service elsewhere at the resort.

Plussat: Staff was very friendly and food is great. There is a band singing at the main restaurnat at dinner time, it is very nice!!

Miinukset: Road to the hotel is very rocky and so uncomfortable. The spa was average.

Plussat: Everything. The pool-sea-view rooms are amazing.

Miinukset: -

Plussat: Lovely owners and pool

Miinukset: Only one pillow each on the bed.

Plussat: Beautiful rooms that are very clean and well decorated. Restaurant was delicious with lots of variety and not typical high resort prices (not the cheapest but also not too expensive). Staff was very helpful - as our hot water wasn’t working and they immediately came to fix the problem.

Miinukset: Nothing. It was great.

Plussat: The accomodation provides a nice view, has a lovely garden and a good swimming pool. It is about 15 minute walk from Thong Sala. In June, there is low tide, so you can't use the beach before the property, but the pool is gorgeous and sure you can find some beaches with a bit of walking. The room was very nicely decorated, just as in the pictures, with quality furniture. Comfy beds, great aircon. You can choose from appr 4-5 sets of breakfast. The whole property is well maintained.

Miinukset: That was our first accommodation on our first trip in SE Asia, and would have appreciated a bit more attention and information. At the reception there was usually only Thai staff (if anybody) who were super kind but didn't really spoke English. Should not be a problem though if you are more experienced or this is not your first stop. The rooms are standard bungalow size, the sleeping area was a bit small for the 3 of us, smaller than expected, but that's not the accomodation's fault, we just didn't have experience with bungalows.

Plussat: The location is fantastic on the beach only a 10 min walk into town, or taxis are easily available. Staff were friendly and eager to help.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The breakfast was amazing ! The place iis simply exquisite you feel at home. And the staff os very helpful I was felling sick and they helped us in everything they could.

Plussat: Quiet location, beautiful scenery, comfortable room, beautiful beach and excellent food! The owners and staff are welcoming and friendly.

Miinukset: No complaints, would love to stay here again!

Plussat: It was like a paradise. The bungalows were cosy, warm, inviting and spacious. There were also absolutely spotlessly clean. All the staff we dealt with were a pleasure and always happy to help and the location on the beach was absolutely stunning. We will always remember our time at Baan Manali. We booked in very short notice as well but still we had an amazing room. Wish I could go back

Miinukset: There was nothing we didn't like.

Plussat: Ihanan rauhallista ja kaunis alue.

Miinukset: Uimaranta ei sovellu uimiseen koska on niin matala. Lapsiperheille varmaankin sopiva.

Plussat: Excellent value for money, location, breakfast and the room.

Miinukset: What was not to like, perfect.

Plussat: good location near the city center of Thong-sa-la. Love the room. With the price we paid, we didn't expect the room to be that spacious but we got really spacious room with full necessary amenities.

Plussat: Great location nice bungalows and peaceful

Miinukset: Think price should of included breakfast at price payed,think good idea they put water or tap outside steps so can clean sand off feet.

Plussat: Very nice hotel with modern design but at the same time surrounded by garden and great paths around hotel houses. Beautiful swimming pool area with the great view directly on the sea. Good pool bar. Very nice stuff, very helpful and caring. Breakfast OK. Peaceful. Recommended if you search for quite place to relax. Good value for money. It was the best looking hotel in the whole nearby area.

Miinukset: There is a beautiful swimming pool area just on the beach. A pity we could not swim in the sea as there was lots of green plants. Nevertheless only 10min walk there is a beautiful sandy beach with the good spot for swimming - Full Moon party beach, which actually is extremely peaceful where there is no party. Some food at breakfast was not fresh - example frozen muffins, cakes etc.. would be great to have fresh food and more variety for fruits and vegetables.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The super cool swimming pool, the amazing breakfast and the view (with a perfect sunset). Everything was great and the staff was super helpful and nice.

Plussat: Staff rooms bar, everything!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Super clean rooms and awesome staff! The German lady at the front desk really goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome. The shower is really awesome and the bed is really comfortable.

Miinukset: The food at the restaurant is a little bit overpriced but appreciated the 10% discount because we were guest of the hotel.

Plussat: Stayed 3 nights. Staff were very professional, courteous and helpful! Right from reception to housekeeping to restaurant and bar. Their hospitality and attention to all the comforts and discomforts made the difference in making the stay pleasant! Would highly recommend this hotel to all!

Plussat: Everything was amazing the staff were super friendly. Breakfast was great. Very modern clean hotel. Was very very sad to leave.

Miinukset: Could not fault it AT ALL. Will be going back and staying longer than our 3 nights we just did.

Plussat: Staff was very helpful and the resort was very well maintained. We had a little issue as we found some ants in our room when we checked in but staff helped promptly and they gave us another room which was perfectly clean. Overall facilities were very good and the breakfast was literally AMAZING. We also had dinner and lunch there and the restaurant is very good, highly recommended.

Miinukset: Bed was a bit uncomfortable but overall we slept quite well.

Plussat: Incredible breakfast and pool. I 100% recommend to stay in this hotel

Plussat: Siistit huoneet sekä allas- ja ranta-alue. Hinta-laatusuhde kohdillaan, mikäli kaipaa hieman parempaa.

Miinukset: Hieman matkaa Haad Rinin rannalle. Aamupala aika niukka, mutta kyllä menetteli.

Plussat: Stunning view from the pool, exceptionally clean room, dinner on the beach was lovely, the food was delicious but a little pricey than other places.

Plussat: The location is great on a quite place in haad rin 10 minutes walking from haad rin beach, we first got the standard room which we didn’t like looks like a teenage room , but we upgraded to deluxe room which was good , the staff was amazing as well as the manager, made sure we are pleased with our stay and was very nice and welcoming. The hotel also offers a free yoga class which was very good and relaxing.

Miinukset: The pool didn’t appear very clean and welcoming as well as the torn bean bags, at that season the beach is shallow and you can’t swim or take the kayaks. While we were staying at our room the hotel painted our terrace walls which made terrible smell and unhealthy to inhale , but the manager apologized and moved us to a different room in better location.

Plussat: We had a beach front villa with a plunge pool. The villa that we were staying in (41) had a bit of cover from the beach front which was great. It meant that when we were in the pool we weren’t so visible to the people walking along the beach. The bed was also incredibly comfortable. The villa also came with complimentary liquor which was a beautiful surprise. The staff were incredibly attentive and any request that was made was met within minutes. I would 100% recommend this accomodation. The breakfast was delicious with a good amount of variety... the omelettes were spot on every time.

Miinukset: The massages and food were very expensive.

Plussat: We had great stay, the staff were super friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is beautiful and the beach was amazing. Well worth taking the kayak out! The food and drinks were reasonably priced. We treated ourselves to the spa which was well worth it. Would high recommend!

Plussat: This is one of the nicest hotels in which I have stayed for many years. The service is excellent, the rooms are spacious and quiet, and the location is beautiful. Kind of quiet if you are alone (I was) but the town is only ten minutes away One of the small thinks they do is only charge 150THB for a transfer to town. Like Phuket, Ko Phangan is a place where the local taxi mafia rips off tourists with overpriced rides. But, the hotel charges a reasonable amount. In summary, I HIGHLY recommend this hotel!!

Miinukset: I could not stay longer :-)

Plussat: Breakfest Big Room (Nice view) Staff Everything!

Miinukset: mosquitos, but that's a whole island problem!

Plussat: Perfect location, helpful staff, perfect service

Miinukset: Almost a bit too much room service.

Plussat: Beach room

Miinukset: Staff Cleaning

Plussat: might be the most beautiful 5star hotel in koh pha ngan, and we've seen them all. Because we come here everytime we visit the Island they gave us a free upgrade to one of the villas near the beach with a private pool. Very professional and warm staff. Also a very serene place without big groups of russian or chinese tourists.

Miinukset: the beach is beautiful, but not the most clean place, because of seaweed

Plussat: The pool villa sea view is amazing it’s our second stay there, the food and staff is a 10/10 for us

Miinukset: We booked last minute so the only pool villa left no 29 was close to the eating area so was a little noisy at 5.30am when staff arrived, but nothing ear plugs didn’t fix, also a complimentary bottle champagne for the noise and the kitchen staff reminded of early start with quests, the staff are great

Plussat: Loved our room with our private pool. the location is great!

Miinukset: we traveled at a time that there is a low tide most of the day, so its not possible to go into the sea:(

Plussat: Beach, pool, breakfast, staff.

Miinukset: A bit far from villages with restaurants and clubs, which might be a huge advantage for peaceful seekers.

Plussat: Nice small colourful hotel. Hamacs everywhere. Welcoming staff. Great food. Close to tongsala (10 by motobyke). We could come back.

Miinukset: The beach is nice to look at but cannot swim. Restaurant closes at 9pm. Rooms are very small. Mosquito land (just warn customers and provide mosquito repellent)

Plussat: We loved our stay at Sea love bungalows. Everything was perfect! Only little bad point is that it’s very hot in the bungalows but the rest is absolutely perfect: amazing view, amazing pool, amazing people. We’re coming back!! The must of the hostel is Ilius, he’s lovely and his laugh is really communicating haha.

Plussat: Peacefull ..clean ..super nice staff..great little restaurant..great location.

Miinukset: Unfortunately lots of cigarette smoking happening everywhere..would be nice if there was one area for smoking...that being said it is Thailand and lots of smokers.

Plussat: Paratiisi ranta, mahtava henkilökunta ja omistajat

Plussat: Patricia and the team where very welcoming warm-hearted hosts, always good for advises and very kind. The atmosphere is really family-like and relaxed and easy to fit in. The food was very fresh and delicious and especially the coffee was super good. We felt really welcome and wish we could have stayed longer!

Miinukset: Everything was wonderful!

Plussat: Great personel! Fantastic cook! If you have a big cottage, like we had, it’s great. But a lot of the cottages looked pretty small. But all the rest was great so who cares...

Miinukset: The sea at sea love is very shalow so it’s not ideal for swimming or snorkeling.

Plussat: Loved the hammocks, food wasn’t too bad and staff were fantastic! So friendly and helpful!

Miinukset: The bungalow was extremely hot even with a fan on, the bathroom was tiny and shower wasn’t great, didn’t feel very clean or comfortable in the bathroom.

Plussat: I found Paradiese! This is one of the best places I have ever stayed. The bungalows are small and basic but comfortable and clean. There is a hammock in front of each Bungalow to relax! Most of the bungalows have Sea view and are only a few meters away from the water - I love the sound of waves at night! What makes this place special is the manager Magda and her team! They are all without exception extremely friendly, relaxed and in the same time helpful. The atmosphere is extremely welcoming and it is like staying with friends and family! Sea Love Bungalows is in a quiet area (no car noise, just waves. You can do snorkeling, use the SUP for free and enjoy nice sunsets! There are shops (7eleven) and restaurants (the Indian place was extremely good, also the Thai Cafe Dalee) in 5 minutes walking distance. But not to forget about Sea Love Restaurant with great food and atmosphere. They serve breakfast, local and international food and Cocktails! I booked 4 nights and extended for 6 more nights! I am sure I will come back! This is a perfect place to relax but also to rent a motorbike and explore the island, it's beaches and nature!

Miinukset: absolutely nothing!

Plussat: Going on other reviews I agree with all the positive ones regarding the below. Everything, the vibe was perfect for the setting, the owners and staff, the food and drinks on offer and the resturaunt setting with pool were just perfect. The grounds were kept neat and tidy all day long. Lots of hammocks and beans bags to chill on. The sea was beautiful with crocs provided so you could walk out on low tide and a paddle board for high tide. The pool was nice too. The bungalow was small but functional, the aircon worked great on the less breezy nights when the tide was out and fly net was not a hinderance. Honestly the best place I've ever stayed and great value for money.

Miinukset: Nothing, it really was brilliantly run and a small paradise!

Plussat: Friendly staff Nice little bungalows

Miinukset: Bungalows are very close to each other A little bit expensive for what you get

Plussat: Great location, lovely staff, very good food, amazing atmosphere

Plussat: Amazing location, friendly staff ,beautiful environment, feels authentic and great rooms :)

Plussat: We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel as we were expecting far less based on the cost. The rooms were simple but very clean, with towels, a fridge, kettle, and efficient air con. The balcony had a washing line and a hammock. It is literally on the beach front and next to Samma Karuna yoga studio, with a kitchen serving cheap and simple food. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Plussat: Great family run place. Cozy, lovely, well kept. Sunsets are out of this world!

Miinukset: Everything was perfect apart from the low tides, but it's not their fault :)

Plussat: The location and food was great and staff friendly and helpful.

Miinukset: I would have liked to have my room cleaned and bed made every day rather than every other day.

Plussat: Lovely stuff!! Best location is Sri thanu! Very recommend!

Miinukset: no cutlery in the room ...a microwave and a plate would also be nice to include. Also wifi kept dropping out but I think this is a problem with the island as a whole.

Plussat: The owner was always accommodating. The food was delicious and the location was perfect.

Miinukset: The beds were hard but the linens were soft and clean.

Plussat: Nice room, comfy bed, balcony, fridge, towels, shower gel and shampoo. The atmosphere at the beach bar is perfect, tasty drinks/food and not too expensive. We booked a motorbike with them for 200 Bhat x day, usually it costs 250; and the tickets to go to Ko Samui airport (taxi+boat+bus to airport) the process was fast and simple, they do everything for u. The staff was kind as well, some spoke very good english and always answered our questions.

Plussat: -the staff is so nice and helped where they could (exp. organising motorbikes, laundry etc..) -bungalows are big enought for 2 people -the restaurant (food and atmosphere), the beach and all the things around the bungalows are just nice!:) -location is perfect (near to all the other nice beaches)

Miinukset: -During the day not the best beach to swim(but still much better than in other places on the island), due to the fact that the water is very shallow during daytime (morning till 4pm. However there are some other nice beaches just 2-5‘ away.

Plussat: We loved our stay at Benjamin‘s Hut! It was a beautiful place made up with love and run by a lovely family. the Place is quiet and not far away from a 7/11 shop and to the street with many restaurants. The pool is great to cool down and the garden is beautiful too. The rooms are spacious and clean and everything is well placed. You have enough space to place and hang your stuff. We loved our stay here. I highly recommend to stay here. <3 Sawadee kaa

Plussat: Perfect resort

Miinukset: Far away from center

Plussat: Amazing service!

Miinukset: Not the biggest menu selection but more than made up for in quality.

Plussat: The hotel is really fun, gorgeous gardens and lovely pool area. The rooms are HUGE! Breakfast was fab and it was easy to get around as the hotel has a taxi service which was the same cost as regular taxis.

Miinukset: I had a treatment at the spa and was a really bad experience but the reception staff helped out and was sort of rectified the situation, but not to my expectations. Unfortunately left a really bad impression on my stay.

Plussat: Mukava henkilökunta, oltiin 2 vuotiaan kanssa reissussa ja henkilökunta huomioi lapsen tosi kivasti joka kohdassa. Aamupala oli hyvä ja monipuolinen, kahvi aivan loistavaa. Uimaallas oli upea, ehkä yksi hienoimmista täällä päin. Mopo järjestyi respasta edullisesti 250 bath. Huonee oli tilava ja hyvin hoidettu, siisti.

Miinukset: Oli rannalla, mutta ranta matalaa, kahluuseen sopivaa, mutta kauniit kuitenkin :-)

Plussat: Great facilities. Large spaces in the bedroom and bathroom. Nice pool. Very welcoming staff.

Miinukset: Wifi frequently disconnect the device so you have to introduce the password again and again.

Plussat: Resort is beautiful and employees were very nice. Rooms are huge and stylish. Loved the pool.

Miinukset: Location was not very good, if you don't spend all your time at the resort. Not very many restaurants in walking distance. Also the main road is dangerous to walk. We saw two accidents just 300 meters from the resort and almost were hit by scooter. Resort's driver was grazy. Drove like a maniac, even we were not in a hurry.

Plussat: Loved everything about this place ! Absolute paradise ! SAN-O and Boy were excellent bar tenders at the bar by the pool. They made awesome mango and strawberry dacquiris ! The room was so comfortable and huge ! The breakfast buffet was the best I’ve had and the massage spa was also great! All the staff at the resort were so friendly and happy! It was the best place to stay and we will defo be back! Great location and right on the beach!!!

Plussat: Henkilökunta extra ystävällinen. Tunsimme itsemme kuninkaallisiksi.

Plussat: Great staff, feeling like at home

Miinukset: Beach in front of the hotel is not very good. However, island is not big, staff recommended some nice beaches to go with motorbike.

Plussat: Amazing large room perfect for families

Plussat: We had a beachfront pool villa. Big windows for the view, beautiful furniture, great breakfast. Very quiet but still close to Tong Sala with the shops and restaurants. The staff was very helpful, especially Michael at the reception.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The staff was fantastic, very attentive and always super nice. It is the perfect place to be when you want to relax and disconnect fully. The hotel facility is amazing, with the beach right in front of the hotel, where we could kayak to see the sunset. It has been an amazing time there and it is fully recomendable as it exceeded our expectations.

Plussat: Excellent location at the north end of the beach for Full Moon Party! Staff super friendly and helpful! Food at hotel restaurant was excellent as well, one of the most welcoming places I stayed in all of Thailand!

Miinukset: Nothing to report.

Plussat: Wonderful hotel and amazing staff! All questions were solved immediately! Very nice swimming pool, best beach at the island and perfect breakfast with many choice to choose!

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: the pool area was lovely and clean, hotel is based right on the beach and the beach is nice and clean too! rooms were a good size, restaurant food was lovely and all the staff couldn’t do enough for you, extremely helpful when it came to booking our ferry and they even made us a packed lunch to take with us on the day of departure

Miinukset: bathroom could of been a bit bigger and more light in there

Plussat: •Very friendly staff •Just by the most popular beach on the island •Good value for money •lovely and very clean huts

Miinukset: •nice pool but always in the shade

Plussat: The beach was very clean!.

Plussat: I already said Everything.!!

Miinukset: Everything

Plussat: To swim in the infinity pool covered by a lush canopy of rainforest was amazing and unforgettable.

Miinukset: I prefer a breakfast buffet but it's hardly a minus because the a la catre menu was good and the food, delicious.

Plussat: The staff are super friendly, they go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. The greenery around the hotel is beautiful , so clean and well kept.

Plussat: It's a very nice resort and very convenient to the beach. It's on the best side of beach so beautiful view. The food is excellent and nice full moon buffet dinner. I will definitely return.

Miinukset: I liked even

Plussat: Nice staff, nice buffet.

Miinukset: Due to rooms being a bungalow. Ants and bugs get into room.

Plussat: The straff was very friendly and did everything they could to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The rooms were big and clean, they cleaned every day. They had 3 swimming pools so you could have a swimming pool just to yourself. The restaurant was small but very nice. You almost had the feeling of being out in the jungle when you sat there.

Miinukset: We had two kids 6 and 8 years old. Our daughter who is 6 can’t swim yet and the swimming pools were not great for her. One of them was shallow at one end but just a very tiny piece of the pool. She was not too pleased with that.

Plussat: super duper friendly staff, lovely remote - edge of the jungle/mountain and also near the beach and wonderfully charming village. very beautiful mature landscaped gardens. staff kindly offer you lifts here and there to the village etc as the property is on a steep dirt track, but the walk is lovely too, (best in a light track shoe, not a flipflop)

Miinukset: not so much at all

Plussat: The host and his staff were friendly. Free transport from the hotel to the beach and the little town was provided. Views from the Ocean View apartment and the Infinity pools spectacular. Food was great.

Plussat: Everything

Plussat: We stayed here for two weeks and loved every second. The staff could not do enough for us, we rented bikes for the entire time and they were all almost brand new and cheaper than the village. And after eating in almost all the restaurants in the village we all agreed the food at the hotel was outstanding and so well priced. We will absolutely be back. Thank you to all the staff and the owner for going out of their way to make our stay great.

Plussat: the ocean view from the pool. the scooter last model for reasonable price.

Miinukset: access to the appartament. the accessing road is really bad

Plussat: Beautyful place with panorama view and great 2-floors swimming pool

Miinukset: Usual 2** interior in family room and too less light from bra.

Plussat: Cheap/ Excellent food, super friendly and accommodating staff, beautiful authentic Thai accommodation, surrounded by nature, beautiful area

Miinukset: The steep access, but was more than worth it for the views!!

Plussat: It was perfect, staff very attentive, smiling and welcoming. No black spots to note. Comfortable and relaxing accommodation. I recommend the restaurant, value for money very good, very good plates.

Miinukset: Nothing, it was perfect

Plussat: Amazing 5 night stay - the hotel has a stunning view, our room was spacious and clean, the staff are lovely and the little restaurant is outstanding such good food and good prices too. Two beaches close by are beautiful - we appreciated the lift to the further one. Thank you for an amazing stay.

Miinukset: A few power cuts during our stay

Plussat: The best hotel. We had a great stay. Staff are SUPER nice and helpful, the room was great, very good location. Nina, Leo, Moe and Pang - Thank you for a wonderful vacation. We will come again next year!

Plussat: Hotellin sijainti oli hyvä.Rauhallinen merenrannalla,mutta kävellen pääsi vilkaille alueille.

Miinukset: Hotellin wi-fi oli erittäin huono.

Plussat: We have stayed at this resort twice and it was even better this time! The staff are so friendly and professional. We were upgraded to a better room on arrival and it was lovely. The facilities are excellent with two pools, a restaurant, a spa and a lovely private beach. We had such a great time here, thank you!!!

Miinukset: No complaints whatsoever!

Plussat: The hotel is perfect for relaxing holidays. It is very cosy and not too big which makes it a quiet and peaceful place. Its private beach is equipped not only with regular sunbeds but also with hammocks and big cushions which are very comfortable. Included breakfast is fine and also throughout the day hotel's restaurant offers delicious food at very attractive prices. In addition, hotel has its own spa with happy hours and there are also yoga classes.

Miinukset: The air conditioning in our room was extremely noisy and our pillows were quite uncomfortable. Yoga classes are not organised every day and, as we were staying only 3 nights, there were no classes during our stay. The beach is very remote and cosy, however, walking along it, we came across quite a lot of glass in the sand. It was not in front of the hotel but we would advise being cautious while going for a walk.

Plussat: The best thing is the waterfront location on a reasonably quiet beach. The restaurant is also good - a little more expensive than places in Haad Rin, but that's to be expected from a hotel restaurant.

Miinukset: This was my fourth time at sarikantang in five years, and every time the hotel looks a little worse. They are not maintaining the exterior surfaces of the buildings at all, and many of the bungalows just look dirty. Staff attention is also lacking. I reported that the electric kettle in my room was not working one morning, reminded them the next day, and when I checked out nothing had been done.

Plussat: Super friendly staff with great service. It’s a very relaxing resort and it’s quiet by night.

Miinukset: If you want to explore the island the location is remote considering it’s a big island.

Plussat: It was nicely tucked away from Haad Rin but walking distance. Very good for value.

Miinukset: The food was a bit pricey but also good.

Plussat: Great food - we planned to eat out originally but the loved the Sarikantang restaurant so much that we preferred to stay with them for the whole time we spent there. A’la carter order is really affordable €5-10 per meal and Thai Food taste way better than street food. They use real ingredients rather than MSG. Cosy feel - the resort is built on a hillside with lovely individual bungalows. I enjoyed the more authentic feel then large hotels would provide with their mass built. No crowd, no noise, no stress. Amazing hospitality - staff is unbelievable helpful, always smiling. They are really laid back when it comes to sorting out things. Highly environment and animal friendly - I think that’s true for the most Thai people. Good location - town centre is about 15 min walking distance, Sunset Beach is about 20 min. Pool party with amazing view on the beach is in the neighbourhood. Pool - one of the pools has a great view on the beach, temperature is just perfect. Massage - clean, staff pays really attention to details. It costs a bit more then on the street but the hygiene and care pays off.

Miinukset: Sea is not swimmable. To be honest, beach is still fantastic for sunbathing and photo shooting.

Plussat: Beautiful resort, very clean and staff very nice, polite and helpful. Breakfast is amazing!!! Swimming pools are clean and nice. Leela beach is a beautiful beach and very calm (no beach bars, no music, no party). You really can’t swim in the sea though. But it’s a 5-min walk to Haad Rin if you want to swim in the sea.

Miinukset: The prices of the restaurant and bar are very high compared to what you would pay outside the resort. To eat it’s ok to move to the town but it’s a pity even the drinks are expensive, and prices shown are VAT excluded... :/

Plussat: Very nice rooms. Incredible bathrooms. The staff is really friendly.

Miinukset: A bit obsessive over rules and counting towels. It’s printed all over the room and makes you feel like you’re a kid at a camp, not an adult at a 4 star.

Plussat: The staff in the hotel exceeded all expectations, they were by far the friendliest people I have ever met. So helpful and always had a smile anytime you’d walk past them. They also gave my partner a cake for her birthday and decorated our room in balloons and confetti. We will definitely be back!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Special thanks to Nook who really did go beyond her duty to look after us.

Plussat: Paikan pitäjät olivat todella ystävällisiä ja mukavia. Huoneet oli todella siistejä. Ehdottomasti tälle paikalle iso suositus.

Plussat: I stayed for 2 weeks at Nice sea and tried many bungalows and rooms. This resort is run by a very nice and genuine Thai family. It is a great place to relax, the beach is beautiful and well maintained. The beds were comfy and the A/C in the rooms work well. The restaurant by the sea is pretty good and good price for on the beach. I was injured when I was here and the staff was accommodating and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

Miinukset: I like the fan bungalows and slept good with the fan on me and windows. The only thing is these ARE on the beach, so I got bitten quite a lot at night, I believe by sandflies. Maybe a net on the bed would be nice, or put some good bug repellent (there is screens on the windows but they still come in by cracks on the wood floor). Because I’m a big buffet, I would stay in one of the AC rooms instead.

Plussat: Best location you can have ending with amazing beach

Miinukset: Cleaning once every 2 days

Plussat: The beach is beautiful, the staff were lovely, walking distance to lots of bars and restaurants.

Plussat: That’s my second home!!! I've been there so many times and I'd like to definitely go there again.

Plussat: The beach and the connector to zen beach is great. Plenty of vegan food / restaurants in walking distance.

Miinukset: Lots of Asbestos like everywhere in Thailand. The main entrance is through storage / workshop area. Could really be improved.

Plussat: Everything was perfect

Plussat: The beach, the service, the room

Plussat: The bed was so Nice. New bildning and clean. Everythings great! Free Coffee and water. Friendly Staff, do anything to make you content. Tasty food. NO complain at all!

Miinukset: They clean ever 2 day. Prefer cleaning Daily basis.

Plussat: The bungalow was very comfortable, safe present. The location is great. You can rent a scooter on the spot

Miinukset: I liked everything :)
