Hotels with Infinity Pools in Koh Samui

"Check-in was prompt, and I got the room I booked. However, I had to walk quite a distance to reach it because guests staying long-term (monthly rentals) occupy the closer rooms, meaning those staying for just one or two nights are assigned rooms further away. This isn't ideal for the elderly. The room itself was nice, but the wooden furniture and fittings were starting to show their age. The air conditioning worked well. In the bathroom, there was no screen or divider, so it was visible from the bedroom. The TV didn't work at all during my two-night stay as there was no signal. Breakfast was delicious, especially the homemade sausages. The restaurant had a beautiful view, as did the swimming pool, but the beach right in front of the hotel wasn't usable; you had to walk to the side of the property. There's no dedicated parking for cars; you have to park on the roadside, which is a hilly, winding road, so you need to be very careful."

"The hotel doesn't quite live up to a 5-star rating. However, it does have pleasant grounds, two pools, and a restaurant. The breakfasts are decent, with a good variety on offer, but they're rather uninspired and not particularly delicious. On the plus side, the coffee is good. The cocktails at the bar during the day were disappointing (we tried a Piña Colada once and weren't tempted to order another). A major highlight is the excellent direct beach access with sun loungers. The beach itself is fantastic. We were very pleased to see security on the beach who also helped set up umbrellas and arrange sun loungers. There's also a staff member with a first aid kit to treat cuts from corals – a very thoughtful touch (which we actually needed assistance with). Among the obvious drawbacks, the soundproofing in the rooms is extremely poor. We ended up with noisy neighbors who were also smoking ******** on their balcony (though it's legalized in Thailand). As a result, our room smelled terrible, and the noisy parties made it impossible for us to relax. On the bright side, when we reported this to reception, they immediately gave us a key to another room so we could get some much-needed sleep there, which we did. In terms of service, the hotel staff deserves a 5/5. Housekeeping and room comfort would get a 3/5 each, and breakfasts a 4/5. Overall, I'd give it a four out of five."

"As a solo female traveller I felt very safe here. It’s out the way nothing around but good and drink on premises and other resorts close buy to visit. Outside shower was a great addition and really makes you feel like you’re in a jungle !"

"We stayed at the hotel for a week, booking a room on the second floor with a sea view. However, due to the bar's roof, the sea wasn't visible; we had a pool view instead. The hotel itself is small and compact, located not far from the Grandpa and Grandma rocks, with a small street nearby offering souvenirs and cafes. The room wasn't very large, but the shower room with the toilet was spacious. There was a noticeable damp smell, though. Our room was equipped with a bed, air conditioning, a few tables, a chair, a large mirror (a rarity for Thailand!), a lighted cosmetic mirror, a wardrobe, a luggage rack, a fridge, a kettle, a tea set, and sachets of coffee, tea, and sugar. A welcome fruit plate was also provided. Beach towels were available, along with a large rubber beach bag, which was very convenient. Slippers and a full set of toiletries were included: cotton pads, cotton buds, toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, shower gel, and hair conditioner. We dried our clothes either on the balcony or in the shower, and everything seemed to dry fine. There's a TV, and we found Russian videos on YouTube, so we weren't bored if we stayed in the room in the evenings. We were quite surprised by the lack of an iron, but it seems that ironing isn't common there, so not all hotels provide them. 7/11 stores are within walking distance, and prices are reasonable, though beer is cheaper by the pack at the Macro hypermarket. We had breakfast included, but didn't go every day. Breakfasts were decent; not super varied, but we never left hungry – everything tasted good. They served a fruit plate, a plate with cheese/butter/ham, and you could order either an omelet or scrambled eggs, with optional bacon and cheese. The coffee from the machine was quite strong, even with milk. There was always a crispy baguette, toast bread with a toaster, and a variety of fruits like rambutan, bananas, passion fruit, and watermelon (which varied daily). Yogurts, muesli, pastries, cookies, cucumbers, tomatoes, and leafy salad were also available. Getting to Lamai night market on foot takes almost an hour, by taxi it's about 200 baht, and walking directly along the beach takes about 25 minutes. There's a small food market towards the Red Temple, which also has live music and a small trampoline for kids. Prices there are dirt cheap. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The beach near the hotel has some rocks, but if you walk a bit to the left, there are fewer rocks and lots of fish. Crabs hang out among the rocks in the mornings. The hotel offers free paddleboards (SUPs) – we took them a couple of times – and also masks and snorkels. We only noticed the latter later, so we had already bought our own. There are dogs living at the hotel, but they are absolutely friendly, usually just chilling among the guests, and only bark at fishermen. No need to be afraid! We arrived before check-in time and had to wait a bit, but we were checked in on schedule. Overall, the hotel is quite good, but a bit far from the nightlife. If you're mobile, getting around the island won't be an issue. There were no Russians at first, then a couple and a man arrived. Primarily, Germans stay there. I give the hotel a solid four out of five stars and wish them prosperity! Thanks for the hospitality!"

"Overall, we had a pleasant stay, with a few important points worth noting. The breakfast was very good, offering a wide variety of options—everything you need for a tasty and satisfying start to the day. The housekeeping service was excellent, and the staff were consistently friendly and helpful, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We also appreciated the complimentary minibar, which was a nice touch. We upgraded to a villa for an additional €50, but it turned out to be a single house divided into two separate rooms. Unfortunately, the soundproofing was extremely poor—everything happening in the neighboring room could be heard as if it was right next to us. So if you’re looking for privacy and quiet, it really depends on having considerate neighbors. The villa itself was spacious and comfortable, which we liked. However, the towels were disappointing. In the gym, they smelled unpleasant and looked very worn, as if they hadn’t been properly refreshed in a long time. The towels in the room smelled fine but appeared old and grey, not fresh as expected. One thing we really appreciated was the hotel’s environmentally friendly approach. Towels and bed linen are changed only when necessary, and water is provided in glass bottles instead of plastic. It’s clear that the hotel is making an effort to reduce its environmental impact, which we found very commendable. In summary, while there are many positives—especially the staff, breakfast, eco-friendly concept, and room size—there are some issues with noise insulation and towel quality that the hotel should address."

"I spent two wonderful nights at this hostel. It was easy to find; it's marked on all popular maps. Check-in is at 3 PM, but there are lockers for small carry-on luggage. The central part of the hostel is the pool, which is quite popular. Secondly, at least four cats live in the hostel, and they clearly feel like they own the place. They will welcome guests at different times. Thirdly, there is a large lounge area with billiards, a bar, TV, and even a coworking space. It's pleasant to hang out in the evenings. The internet worked great one day, then intermittently the next. But people were using laptops. The dorm itself is small, for four people, but quite cozy. It's more pleasant to spend most of the time by the pool and in the lounge area. There is a restaurant nearby with expensive but very tasty breakfasts, and they also accept credit cards. And around 7 AM, several night markets open nearby. The sandy beach is a 15-minute walk away. I highly recommend this hostel! Amazing experience!"

"I really loved this hotel. We were greeted with welcome juice and refreshing wet towels upon arrival. The grounds boast a true tropical garden with delightful plant scents – pure bliss! The pool is clean and right on the beachfront, offering sea views. Overall, the hotel is impeccably clean everywhere; you can tell they maintain it well. I also liked the location – about 50 meters to the left of the hotel, there's a street with all the necessary amenities, including a 7-Eleven and a seafood market. The hotel breakfasts are quite varied, featuring three types of fruit, croissants, sweet pastries, Thai food, eggs, vegetables, sausages, nuggets, fried bacon, granola, several kinds of juices, and coffee from a machine. They have separate villas or two-to-three-story buildings. We had a ground-floor room with a terrace. The room itself was simple, nothing fancy, but the towels were clean, snow-white, and changed daily. The bedding was good, also changed on the third day. The clientele at the hotel is mostly European retirees. Overall, it's an excellent hotel, definitely worth visiting."

"The room was wonderful—clean, spacious, and came with a veranda plus an extra outdoor shower (very convenient for rinsing off sand). The staff were excellent. I've stayed at several hotels in Koh Samui and Phuket, and these guys are the most efficient. Minimal interaction is needed, and issues are resolved quickly; it's like they're not even there, but everything gets done. That's really impressive. You do have to walk a bit to the beach, but on the flip side, there are no bars, karaoke, or discos right under your windows, so you can get a good night's sleep."
