Koh Samui hotellia

Plussat: Clean and nice place, near the beach with good breakfasts

Miinukset: It’s very old fashioned - with Internet rooms and order of DVD, was built in 2004 and needs to be renovated by concept and by furniture too. Gym is very old. Restraints (except breakfasts) not tasty and expensive. It’s ok if you are 50+

Plussat: Garden Room had lovely porch looking out onto a pond with waterfalls. Great bathroom.

Miinukset: Restaurant lacked Thai food and the western food was just ok.

Plussat: Everything to like

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike

Plussat: The hospitality and kindness of the staff, great attention to details, the food is great;

Miinukset: The rooms are a bit outdated.

Plussat: Such a gorgeous property with delicious food! You definaltey feel like you are staying at a luxury property. It was great to have the option to walk to Fisherman's Village for other meal and drink options but we loved all our meals right at the property. Perfect spot for the second week of our Thai honeymoon. Thank you Bo Phut!

Plussat: The staff was amazing and the facility was beautiful

Plussat: Erinomainen hinta laatusuhde

Plussat: Attention to detail and the fact that the staff couldn’t have been more helpful, willing or attentive.

Miinukset: Choice of wines - they’re expensive to begin with but their quality is fairly low

Plussat: There is nothing we didn’t like about the Banyan Tree Samui. From the time we arrived until the moment we left (a bit testy eyed actually) we were treated so so well. Thé villas are wonderful, private pool clean and a great size. Restaurants good and the beach lovely. The beach staff in particular are great!

Miinukset: Nothing! It’s perfect!

Plussat: The whole quality of Banyan Tree Samui was fabulous and this was our second visit and I can honestly say it was as good as we had expected and found that everything was maintained to the highest standards. We will be back again

Miinukset: Leaving

Plussat: Everything! Our house concierge Ohm (Oliver) was incredible! Made our staying even better

Plussat: Serene, tropical paradise. Superb service - the staff are amazing. Sports centre is brilliant. Beach is good (quite steep and therefore hard to walk on); brilliant spa and the best massage on the beach ever! Rooms were superb.

Miinukset: Could do with a little more food choices - only 2 x eating outlets which are fine but one more would help. Also, the food is a little too elaborate and could do with being toned down a little (for example - every single main course we had over a 5 day period had huge slices of fruit and flowers as decorations that took up half the plate - a little boring after a while!). Small fault though - which should definitely not put anyone off. Food was fresh and flavoursome. Even though the menus did have photos on them (a pet hate!) A little more atmhosphere would be good - it was incredibly quiet and staid (mainly middle aged Europeans staying without children). But as a family of 4 we felt a little conscious that we were having ‘fun’. The main pool is massive but has very little on offer for children - and it is not really a lap pool either. And it is as hot as a bath - a little strange. A small quibble only. And finally, lots of mossies!

Plussat: Everything !!!

Miinukset: The food in the pool and beach bars isn't amazing and expensive but there is good options to eat right outside the resort

Plussat: We had a wonderful stay here. The staff were among the most welcoming and helpful we have ever experienced. They went out of their way to make sure everything was always exactly as we wanted, even improvising a boxing lesson after we missed the scheduled one! The beach villa was extremely comfortable, impeccably clean and well located. The resort is very pleasant. Neither the pool nor the beach felt crowded, even when the hotel was full.

Miinukset: Service could be a bit slow at the Beach House restaurant when it was full, but the friendliness of the staff more than made up for this (tiny) inconvenience

Plussat: Softer and more comfy bed

Plussat: The staff are delightful! The villa is amazing and we were really well looked after.

Miinukset: Lack of restaurant options. Food was amazing but only one restaurant was open during our stay

Plussat: The sea, the staff, the service, the rooms .. everything

Miinukset: Loved everything

Plussat: Child friendly resort with great kids club, lovely beach. Felt very quiet and relaxed even though it was full.

Plussat: We absolutely loved our Reserve pool villa, as well as the beach! Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Miinukset: Very minor niggles - the pool table are could do with some refurbishment. The junior camp was by and large excellent, though some toys and books were rather tired. The room would have benefitted from more waste bins, as well as beer in the minibar! Finally, it seemed ridiculous to charge for 'premium' loungers on the beach.

Plussat: The hotel is very good for families with children, kid club is superb, in the restaurants they always take care of children menu activity as drawing.

Miinukset: The service at the pool side and on the beach was not good as we had in other 5 stars hotels in Samui

Plussat: We had an amazing stay at the Santiburi. Breakfast was wonderfully decadent with all sort of pastries, eggs and omelettes cooked to order, waffles and pancakes and crepes cooked to order, dim sum treats and pretty much anything else you could think of. Lunch and dinner were on the beach and gave us the chance to make up for overindulging with spa food (or not, depending on how we felt). The beach is gorgeous, very clean with big beautiful palm trees overhead. Finally, I have to thank the massage therapists at the spa for doing such a fantastic job. They worked out knots that were years in the making.

Miinukset: Nothing! We had a wonderful time and were so sad to leave!

Plussat: It is near the beach. Staff was helpful and kind. Nice resort with nice gym.

Miinukset: Extremely expensive to eat in the Hotel. Everything is overpriced. Prices of food and wines are doubled when compared with other luxury resorts I visited In thailand. The cheapest massage was around $120. Prices of wines starts around $110. Very inconvenient to eat out of the resort since everything is far away from the hotel. We had the most luxurious Villa, advertised as 210sqm. Actually it's just a room, separated from others by making it standalone. Living and sleaping area was around 60-70sqm. With the yard, pool and terrace I still wouldn't say it's 210 sqm. I missed some kitchenette. Not enough healthy food options but kitchen was flexible with everything we wanted.

Plussat: Excellent and friendly staff who go or if their way to see you have a great trip.

Plussat: Friendly attentive staff, they all could not do anymore to make or stay more enjoyable.

Miinukset: Food choices after a while are limited, but still great.

Plussat: The rooms are very nice. The beach is also nice at the hotel. The massage was amazing and the staff are all extremely nice.

Miinukset: The pool area looks old and not very luxury. It's not worth a 5*. The breakfast was bad , no choice and quality of food was poor. The car service to go around is very expensive.

Plussat: Beautiful property and a very nice beach, nicer than others in the area. The food at the hotel was amazing, and the staff went over and beyond our expectations. We felt like we never had to leave and extended our stay for 3 extra nights.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: There is a wonderful pool where you can take great pictures with the sea as your background. The breakfast was delicious.

Plussat: Excellent staff - which goes above and beyond to service their guests Wonderful pool and beach area Clean and very comfortable rooms Excellent food (restaurant ) - we loved their Thai food !

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Attentive staff, stunning facilities the shuttle into the Fishermans village is great (absolutely essential). It is exactly what you expect from a five star hotel. It had everything you could ask for.

Miinukset: When paying for a five star hotel you have to expect that you are going to be paying five star prices once you're there as well. This is no exception to that rule. It was expensive by English standards for food and drink let alone Thai. It is in the middle of nowhere. There Isn't really anything around for during the day. If you want to do anything you have to pay a fair amount before you can even get there.

Plussat: Very nice hotel in a quiet location directly on the beach. The staff is excellent friendly and very courteous. The individual wishes are strongly taken into account. For relaxed days it is a very welcome place - for parties and adventures rather less. Nevertheless the hotel offers a cheap shuttle bus to Fisherman's Village (50 Baht) as well as to Chaweng (100 Baht) to experience more activities. Furthermore they offer also daily tours or help you get the tickets for the ferry to other islands (Koh Phangan, Koh Tao). New activities (mostly free) are offered daily in the Coast itself (cooking course, fruit tasting, learning Thai, pool party, cinema night @ pool, yoga ob rooftop...). We had great and relaxing days here. There was really nothing missing. No children at all - it‘s Adult only - and a nice beach. The rooms are big and clean. The pool of the room is rather moderat in our view (and a bit too cold), but there is a main pool which is great! We didn't use the fitness room or the massage facility - so we didn't rate these points. The breakfast is also very good - high quality and a lot of choice. *This evaluation reflects our personal experience and is done on our own initiative - we got no commission from the hotel. We can highly recommend it and would come back here again.

Miinukset: - Nothing

Plussat: the pool is wonderful, drinking are amazing

Miinukset: the sand is not very soft, there’s stone on the beach

Plussat: Great big pool with nice poolbar. Food and drinks are good. We didn’t use the sunbeds or beanbags because they look dirty. Coffee (Illy) at breakfast is excellent. Breakfast is ok with eggs to order etc except old bread. This hotel has been renovated and is more 4 instead of 5 star but good value for money.

Miinukset: The rooms is sober but ok and reasonably clean, but smells musty. Wooden floor in room needs to be renovate. You need a car or scooter but hotel provides scooter rental.

Plussat: Hotelli oli kokonaisuudessaan täydellinen. Rauhallinen aikuisten hotelli.Ilmaisia aktiviteetteja,erittäin siistit huoneet ja ympäristö.Hotellilla toimi kaikki.

Miinukset: Olisi ollut kiva,jos hotellilta olisi ollut kuljetus myös aamupäivisin eri paikkoihin.

Plussat: well located, great rooms and good restaurant - stylish pool, welcoming staff

Miinukset: scanty wifi

Plussat: One of the best hotels we’ve been before. Lovely staff, cozy room, tasty breakfast, perfect location and comfortable beach area. Highly recommended

Plussat: Pool and pool bar were amazing. Also super clean! Restaurant is very good, little bit expensive.

Miinukset: Spa massage was very disappointing

Plussat: The swimming pool area

Miinukset: The room cleaning service was not up to standard . Breakfast was very repetative and limited, activities were limited and worst of all no shuttle services !

Plussat: Everything there it’s amazing, the staff , the room , the breakfast and all the facilities

Miinukset: The hotel it’s perfect, one of the best I’ve ever been

Plussat: The Sala accommodation and staff are amazing

Plussat: Fantastic!!!!

Miinukset: There was every day a lot of plastic on the beach. They had to clean the beach up every day, I think that is a general problem in Thailand.

Plussat: The resort is nice and modern. Breakfast is great and also the location. Many restaurants nearby. The 2 Pools are nice and the beach is great.

Miinukset: The Internet is very slow and inconvenient, you have to login multiple times a day. It's very expensive for Thailand, massage cost 3000+ Bath/h, where everywhere else around the hotel 300-500Bath/h. There is also not a lot of Trees and shadow, it gets really really hot in the Villa Pool area because of the high walls and no shadow or wind.

Plussat: Fantastic breakfast and fantastic staff Great pool villa, very clean Decent salads at lunch Cocktails ok Nice pools

Miinukset: Food and drinks too expensive Dinner Thai food bit disappointing,,maybe offday as dishes not all freshly made (Tod ma pla, squid) Beef red curry way too salty and not spicy, chicken green curry undercooked aubergine

Plussat: Everything

Plussat: Beautiful rooms and over the top service from staff. Amazing views. Great happy hour. Close to restaurants and other shopping areas.

Miinukset: Restaurant was spendy so we ate off the property.

Plussat: I liked everything in this hotel

Plussat: Loved everything about it we moved from Amariresort where there were renovations and staff were very average to walking into such beautiful and friendly staff and an amazing resort we stayed on beach side which was amazing

Miinukset: The breakfast could of offered a little more

Plussat: So happy with this resort

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The private pool villa was nice to have. The convenience of being able to swim anytime you want was nice. Staff was friendly and check-in was a breeze. On Thursdays, between 6pm-7pm, guests have the chance to meet the management at the hotel and have complimentary drinks on the beach. There is a butterfly garden located across from the hotel. 160 Baht for hotel guests. Ticket includes a voucher to use at the hotel during happy hour; buy one drink, get one free.

Miinukset: There was an unsightly old plastic bag covering the skylight above the shower.

Plussat: Very friendly staff. The location is very quiet and good for relaxing. It's far away from the famous places. Good to have a car or motobike. But they offer transfer and shuttleservice. We liked it a lot. The only thing what they have to make better is the gym and the cleanliness of the beach towels.

Miinukset: The gym and the cleanliness of the beach towels.

Plussat: Pool by the sea is beautiful

Miinukset: Rooms were very clean on arrival but were not cleaned well during our stay.

Plussat: The staff are very friendly and the rooms are lovely and private.

Miinukset: There are a lot of steps in the premises, so for anyone with disability it’s not recommended. We were told to be careful when swimming in the sea as the beach was quite rocky and there are sea urchins and jelly fish. It’s also quite far away from the rest of the island attraction, so there’s a lot of driving required, which can be quite isolated unless you have a car.

Miinukset: There were renovations in the pool we only found out after check in.

Plussat: Place was immaculate! Very nice place to stay, no complaints. Shuttle service to lamai was helpful and cheap also! Breakfast and staff in hotel.

Miinukset: Nothing at all, no complaints.

Plussat: The resort was fantastic, from the room to the bedding and facilities as well as the staff was very accommodating.

Miinukset: No room service after midnight A bit costly to go out as you have to always book a taxi from the hotel with fixed rates

Plussat: Excellent choices and variety of food for breakfast. Cleaning the suite twice a day. Small details like putting kind notes and flowers in our room. Very environmental and animal friendly. All staff extremely friendly and accommodating. Overall excellent experience and definitely we would return.

Miinukset: A gym was a little bit to small for my taste and it could have more equipment.

Plussat: Everything. May be our best hotel experience ever!! :)

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: Food, beach

Miinukset: Not many activities for kids

Plussat: Extremely friendly and helpful staff Food quality was excellent

Plussat: The staff were fantastic. My daughter needed a complete rest due to illness and they couldn’t do enough for her. Wonderful.The beautiful beach front cove was just lovely.

Plussat: The staff is so friendly and accommodating. The massages we received were the best we’ve had and every meal we chose to eat in the hotel was amazing!

Plussat: Amazing hotel, beautiful room with outdoor shower, great breakfast in the restaurant. Dining in the restaurant too expensive, we haven't tried as there is more options available around and much cheaper. Lovely pool with great view and lovely,sandy beach. Very close to the village.

Miinukset: The only minus would be expensive bar at the pool with lack of atmosphere in the evening. We had only drinks during happy hours.

Plussat: Staff, location and rooms.

Miinukset: The pillows from the bedroom wasn't so comfortable.

Plussat: I'll start with the cleanliness! The staff cleans very well. We has the pool room with beach view. The staff at breakfast buffet were very nice too. The food at breakfast buffet was good but not great, for what i paid for i expected it to be like other 5 star hotels but it wasn't. The breakfast needs varaiery and better presentation. The beach was very warm and nice.

Miinukset: The room service was the worst, i mean the food. Room service staff, i think it was the same guy in both times when i ordered, did not understand english. I asked to bring salt with the food, it was not brought. Normally, it should be brought without even asking. The second time, i asked for scallop with shrimps, what they brought was another dish which had only scallops, and was half rare. Another thing, is the free shuttle service that they offer. From the resort @3:00 PM and 6:00 PM and you should book early as if it gets booked they don't offer you another shuttle! And for the way back it it @3:30 PM and @6:30 PM. Note: The taxi here in Ko Samui is not cheap, rather expensive. Finally, Celes Spa: I wanted deep tissue massage to releive muscle tension, something like swedish massage, they had 3 kinds, that surprisingly are the same technique but using a different kind of oil!! Yes, in Thailand where you'd be expecting A LOT in this category. I wanted to try anyway, thought to myself it should be too good, but it wasn't. A blonde lady was my therapist, with her nail she scratched my whole body. I did not comment on that, but even the massage itself did not meet my expectation, it was waay below!

Plussat: Perfect environment, quiet, neat. Good facilities, spa, restaurant, swimming pool. Staff is kind and friendly.

Miinukset: Shuttle bus service can be improved. The time table is too limited.

Plussat: The quality of the resort was extremely high with beautiful rooms, an amazing pool area and access directly to the beach. The staff were extremely helpful and kind and really made the whole trip enjoyable. The breakfast in the morning was amazing and had a great variety. I would definitely recommend this resort to my family and friends and would definitely come back. After living in Thailand for 2 years previously, this is one of the nicest resorts I have stayed in so it was great to come back to Thailand with family and to stay here.

Miinukset: Literally, the only thing that could improve this resort would be some night time entertainment.

Plussat: Lovely houses and beach villas surrounded by plants and flowers. Very quite position next to Fisherman’s Village

Miinukset: Nothing really

Plussat: We had the most amazing time at Celes. The staff, location, breakfast and rooms were great. Best hotel we've stayed in!

Miinukset: The only thing we didn't like was the short time we had at this property. Definitely worth visiting again.

Plussat: The hotel was perfect in every way and would highly recommend it, all being well we will be heading back next year.

Miinukset: we liked everything couldn't find any fault.

Plussat: Staff were exceptional. Very helpful and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed and more. Service was excellent. The resort was more personal than surrounding resorts.

Miinukset: Further down the beach than other places, but this also made it quieter so not really a con.

Plussat: The service is excellent, the staff are attentive and always ready to help. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The property was very clean.

Miinukset: Beach in front of the resort was clean but the rest of the beach was dirty and full of plastic debris like water bottles and slippers.

Plussat: Great place to stay in Koh Samui. The hotel was clean as well as the room. Staffs were so nice and so friendly, great breakfast too with plenty of choice.

Plussat: Thai style building

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: We enjoyed tremendously the willingness of the staff to meet our expectations and their care. The atmosphere there is quite unique in its friendliness.

Miinukset: The conditions for handicapped persons are not ideal

Plussat: Great staff great experience. Very friendly.

Miinukset: Everything was perfect even when construction was going on they kept it to a minimum. Did not experience any problems there.

Plussat: The facilities, breakfast, spa, beach, everything!!!

Miinukset: Part of the rooms are located near a Bar so we heard loud music until very late at night.

Plussat: Buri Rasa was a first place that we have visited with family at Thailand. Location is excellent, clean beach, soft sand, smooth entrance to water. Personal was very friendly and was willing to help at all times. Unfortunately my son and wife got flu and receptionist has arranged free transfer to and from hospital. Food also was very good, even we have ordered some special dishes(not from menu) which was cooked without any questions.

Plussat: Breakfast was perfect. Room was great. Staff were very helpful and kind. We will definitely stay here again. Very close to Bophut which is a great place. Also they have shuttle services to some popular places.

Miinukset: No beach access but you can walk or take a taxi which will take like 5 minutes.

Plussat: Just fantastic all round and seriously good value for money! From the moment we arrived the staff could not do any more for us! Very modern resort with stunning rooms and pool. Top notch cleanliness. Location a bit out of the way but they have shuttles to main areas so it is not a problem. It is actually so relaxing being away from the madness in a little tropical paradise. Chi beach club just fabulous as well.

Plussat: The rooms are fully equipped and extremely comfortable. The pool is a good size perfect for exercise - not just leisure. The gym is well equipped. Closest beach - only 3 blocks - and the hotel will zip you there in a tuk-tuk, is peaceful paradise. Staff and management are friendly and approachable. Even the music played poolside is lovely. Fantastic experience.

Plussat: Great place to relax in. The room was big and comfortable, breakfast was tasty and varied, and the pool was great.

Miinukset: Far from the center-which is good if you're looking for something more quiet.

Plussat: The breakfast buffet was outstanding - an extensive range of beautiful food, both Thai and Western styles. The hotel features a large and pristine pool with many shaded sun loungers surrounding it. The staff were extremely polite, helpful and accommodating. On the morning of our arrival, our luggage had not made it with us and we were exhausted from our flight. The manager kindly let help ourselves to the breakfast buffet and let us access our room early to rest and shower, all without additional charge. Our room, the one bedroom suite, was immaculate and featured a large sofa, kitchenette, air conditioning and excellent bathroom facilities. We could not fault our stay and highly recommend the hotel to other guests. A luxurious stay at excellent value for money.

Miinukset: We couldn’t fault anything! The hotel is a bit out from the main attractions, which suited us as it was a quiet location, and the hotel offered transfers into Chaweng and Fisherman’s Village.

Miinukset: 1.Breakfast and the serving menu have all been change. - disappointing 2.A strong Pungent sewage smell coming from the room toilet that will linger around the room after the lemon grass essential oil has all been evaporated. 3.Room’s Toilet bowl has been choking in regards even though paying toilet paper aren’t thrown. Had to call for help every day to de-choke the toilet ball. Attempted to request front desk for room change but was verbally “offer” with some vouchers over the phone by front desk which has never been offered even when I was checking out the hotel. 4.Disappointed to stay at the suite w Garden view The guests over at second & third level were hanging soiled clothes, swimwear that water has dripping onto level 1 at the garden. It’s our second time staying with Lanna but likely be our last. Such a great disappointment from our last trip back in 2017.

Plussat: Beautifully architected building, kudos to the architect :) Specially the beach club was lovely. The speakers in the room were a nice touch.

Miinukset: The bed in my room was too hard, would've been nice if the beds were a little more softer and comfy.

Plussat: Beautiful hotel and lovely staff. The food was excellent. The rooms were great and spotlessly clean. The spa was really nice too. Would highly recommend this hotel and wouldnt hesitate in staying there again.

Miinukset: The prices for drinks and food are quite expensive but then you would expect that with any hotel really.

Plussat: Perfect stay. Staff were very friendly. Shuttle bus available to get to various places. My check out was early in to morning and they packed me a breakfast for my journey.

Miinukset: Maybe more frequent shuttle. But completely understand why as it is only a small hotel.

Plussat: Very professional and helpful staff (the best we had in thailand): help us to book transfer, ferrys, scooter rental etc Spacious and well-equipped room with a couch, fridge, kitchen etc. Nice and large swimming pool with great area to chill around (we had a free smoothie when we were chilling on the deck chair)

Miinukset: Transfer from the airport costs 400thb for 10 minutes drive (a little overpriced) but free transfer to the pier !

Plussat: Paras hotelliaamiainen mitä kukaan meistä oli syönyt ikinä. Listalta sai tilata ihania herkkuja pannukakuista eggs benedicteihin. Altaalla tarjoiltiin virkistäviä drinkkejä ja hotellin manager kyseli päivittäin kuinka voimme ja miten voisivat tehdä oleskelusta vielä paremman.

Miinukset: Tennis ja aamun jooga olivat maksullisia mikä hieman ihmetytti tämän tasoisessa hotellissa. Aurinkotuoleja puolella mihin paistoi päivällä oli liian vähän ja tilaa ylipäätänsä ottaa aurinkoa. Monet vieraat kävivät aamulla varaamassa pyyhkeillä tuolit ja häipyivät muualle eikä hotellin henkilökunta ei puuttunut tähän laisinkaan.
