"Really great for the price point. Private rooms look quite new. They are clean and big and quiet at night. The beds are very comfortable. The AC is very cold. The staff are polite. Many local restaurants and 7/11 nearby. They rent scooters for a fair price of you're looking for that."

"J4 Samui Hotel & Resort – Highly Recommended First of all, I would like to say a big thank you to a staff member named Bew. She is absolutely fantastic. I accidentally left my bank cards in an envelope inside the safety box. She tried to contact me when I was already in Bangkok, and then kindly sent everything to my address in Bangkok. I truly appreciate what she did — 5-star customer service for her. The room was small but very cozy. I loved the candle scent in the room; it was so relaxing. The bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom was modern and extremely clean. I also liked the old-style furniture, which gave a very traditional Thai feeling. The location is excellent — only a 1-minute walk to the beach. I had a great stay for 4 nights and would definitely recommend this hotel. I would happily stay here again."

The Stay Chaweng Beach Resort ★★★★
"If you are a light sleeper, DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL! Soundproofing does not exist. It’s not bad, it doesn’t exist. I can could hear literally everything, even guests 2 rooms away from me talking casually. Also, the planes are landing straight above your head, so if you like to sleep until 9-10am, forget about it. First plane lands around 8am. In the picture you can see the doors from inside of the room. Light from a hallway coming in from all the sides, same as sounds. Apart from not being able to sleep, hotel is decent, nice pool and nice food in a restaurant. Good location if you don’t mind the planes in the morning. Breakfast is fine, but it could br improved.Room floor was dirty, couldn’t walk barefoot. For this money I expected way better soundproofing."

Chaweng Cove Beach Resort ★★★
"This is a good place, with excellent service, but the rooms desperately need renovation. The bathroom, and especially the shower, no longer meet minimum standards. The window didn't have a handle, and that's the only way to ventilate the room. I stayed at this hotel two years ago, and they were remodeling, but it seems they only did the rooms facing the beach. The breakfast was good. The location is fine; it's quieter south of Chaweng. The pool is good too. The bar is beautiful."
