"had a pleasant stay at First Residence Hotel. The room was clean and the location was convenient, making it easy to get around. What really stood out was the staff, everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help, which made my stay even more enjoyable. The facilities are quite basic, so don’t expect luxury, but for the price it offers good value. If you’re looking for a clean, comfortable place with excellent service, I’d happily recommend it."

Napasai Samui Residence Hotels in Koh Samui

Napasai Samui Residence

"Pros 1. Very friendly and cheerful staff 2. Great facilities including tennis court , gym, badminton , beach volleyball and all sorts of water activities. We picked the resort because it has two well maintained tennis courts. Not a lot offer that in Samui. 3. Our beach front villa is big and beddings are very comfortable. The location of the hotel is a bit far from central happening places but not an issue for us as we enjoyed the tranquility. Cons. 1. On our first day our shower sewage was clogged and flooded. Staff came late night, fixed, and left a mess behind. House cleaning came next day to clean but again left cleaning tools behind. Things happen I understand but this shows some areas of training is quite needed. Another day our toilet also got clogged and flooded. Not exactly what we envisioned for paying USD.1000 plus per night. 2. Staff’s english might need more training also . Again , not a big issue if we try again and again. 3. Food is quite expensive in the premise. Thankfully there are other options outside of hotel for a small walk or ride. Breakfast spread is good but might need some change after a few days. Overall, we enjoyed our stay thanks to hotel staff trying their best for giving their guests a memorable holiday. y"

Sandalwood Luxury Villa Resort Hotels in Koh Samui

Sandalwood Luxury Villa Resort

"Rated location a 5/5, not because it is just a doorstep away from popular night markets, or just beside a beach, or the steep slope up to the villa, but because of the amazing view point it provides and the quiet sanctuary we are looking for in a retreat! The resort does offer free shuttles to areas in coral cove and (our favourite) crystal bay, which is great. Service (receptionist through WhatsApp, and drivers, cleaning) was very prompt and fuss free. Room was spacious and comfortable, facilities (eg bathroom, jacuzzi) were clean. Will definitely visit again! Thanks for making our retreat an enjoyable one."

Crystal Lamai Hotel Hotels in Koh Samui

Crystal Lamai Hotel

"The good thing about the hotel is that it is relatively quiet. The pool was nice. The gym was very barebone, however, with almost no equipment inside. It is not located on the beach, you need to walk about 10 minutes, which is not bad. However, there is no place for you to sit on the beach as almost everywhere is occupied by bars or beach front resorts. The main problem I found with the hotel is its surrounding and its location. The hotel is not located at the lively market which is much further away and difficult to access by walking due to heavy traffic (I had to go to the beach every day and walk along the shore). I really struggled to find good food near the hotel and only had an ice cream for lunch. Also the hotel is located quite far from almost all attractions in Lamai aside from the beach, such as Guan-Yu shrine, red temple, Hin Ta Hin Yai, etc., and the taxi is very costly here. Also if you want to go to Chaweng beach it's almost 400 baht by taxi. I would recommend this hotel provided you have your own mode of transportation."

"The view was absolutely stunning! We stayed in ocean view pool villa #28, and the mini-bar was generously stocked with complimentary drinks and snacks. We ate all three meals at the hotel, and the prices were reasonable, plus the restaurant had a beautiful view. In the afternoon, there was also free afternoon tea by the public pool."

"The hotel is quite far from any amenities, but it's very close to the road. Extremely close, in fact. If you're hoping for a peaceful night's sleep, never book a room facing the road. Otherwise, you'll be jolted awake by every sportbike or 'disco on wheels' all night long. That said, the hotel itself is nice. The rooms are spacious, and the bathroom is excellent! There's a pool, a mini-gym, a restaurant, and well-maintained grounds. The staff are good, no complaints there. Nearby, on the beach, there's a pleasant restaurant that's a bit cheaper and even more interesting. To swim in the sea, you'll need to walk about 300-500 meters. The breakfast isn't amazing, but you won't go hungry. There's a viewpoint nearby with views over all of Chaweng, but you have to walk along the highway to get there."

"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."

"Room aircond takes a long time to become cold. Hotel is facing the sea and the beach area is limited, it's not really a beach that you can walk along the coastline. Toilet drainage is poor, it will get flooded during shower."
