Hotels in Nathon, Koh Samui

We stayed here in April 2025. We moved to Lipa Noi from Chaweng Noi beach, as we were looking for a more rustic, village-like vibe. A few days before check-in, we drove past the hotel. From the road, I must say, it looks quite unremarkable, and we started to doubt our choice. However, the hotel lived up to our expectations. Excellent value for money. We booked a villa with a small private pool. After researching all the hotels on the island, this was the best deal we found on Koh Samui for a private pool – couldn't find anything cheaper. Rooms in this category are located across the road from the main building, but this wasn't an issue at all. The room was excellent: clean, quiet, and had everything we needed, including a new bathroom. It also featured a small private fenced-off area with its own sun loungers and umbrella, and a mini-pool with a waterfall and lighting. We definitely wished the pool was deeper; we're used to small pools, but not quite *this* shallow 😅. Still, it was perfectly fine for cooling off on a hot day. The only downside in the room was the transparent ceiling in the bathroom, which made it very stuffy during the day. When booking, we chose between this room and a Tropical villa with a mini-pool in the hotel's main area. If you value privacy, definitely book the villa across the road. Despite the lush greenery, all the pools in the Tropical villas are visible from the hotel pathways. **Regarding the location:** This is where we truly fell in love with Koh Samui. It's a small village, but it has everything you need. Within walking distance of the hotel, there are several cafes and massage places, a currency exchange, and a 7/11 not far away. However, a scooter is still essential. The roads here are empty and very scenic. Not far, if you drive towards the pier, there's an excellent family-run cafe with very reasonable prices and delicious food. The hotel has a compact, green property with small bridges and ponds with fish. There's also a large parking lot. The breakfasts were decent, and it was quiet and peaceful; there weren't many guests in April. There were always empty sun loungers on the beach and by the main pool, even though there weren't many to begin with. The massage service was a bit pricey; given the low number of guests, they could have offered a discount, which would have made us less inclined to look for massages elsewhere. The beach itself is very quiet, with a narrow strip of light, clean, and soft sand – it's aesthetically pleasing for a stroll. However, the sea in April was not swimmable. It was shallow, with stagnant, warm, greenish water and a very silty bottom. I had read reviews, but I wasn't prepared for just *how* bad it was. In total, we only went into the sea once and didn't attempt it again. The main pool was also boiling hot, so our mini-pool was a lifesaver.

Quiet option. Helpful staff. Reasonable prices

At that time, in order to catch the AirAsia intermodal transportation on the next day, a hotel was far away from the dock. I was pleasantly surprised and the hotel service was very good. I originally booked a car on Taobao. From the hotel to the dock, I didn’t expect it to be quite expensive, and the car also started from the city. I needed to get up very early, so I rejected the Taobao car reservation. 1. The hotel probably knows that the people staying in his house are all the customers of AirAsia's vehicle and ship transportation, and they have provided us with a taxi. On the second day, I enthusiastically helped us carry our luggage. By the way, we were four adults, all with suitcases. It was a seven-seater car. We gave 300 baht to the hotel and sent it to the terminal one day in advance. We also gave 300 baht to the driver. Treasure cars are expensive. Taobao is estimated to cost around RMB 170. The hotel also packed breakfast for us, which was very touched. 2. The hotel's environmental service is very good, and it feels like a paradise, which is more peaceful than the city center, suitable for young couples to vacation; 3. The only disadvantage is that the surrounding area is too desolate and there are no shops; 4. The restaurant in the hotel is a bit expensive. When we checked in at noon, we ate in the restaurant. What we ate was not as good as in the center of Samui. It was expensive. Highly recommend a small stall next to the hotel, selling fish ball noodles, super delicious, only RMB 12, very full. 5. In the morning, the dog and the concierge came to pick us up.

Resepshn in the pharmacy, settlement less than 5 minutes, despite the fact that we arrived at 11 a.m.! Very clean, bed linen smells pleasant, we were settled in room 6 on the second floor! Big room, there is champoo, air conditioner, shower hats, air conditioner, TV, teapot, refrigerator, lots of rosetates, dishes, separate room with kitchen type shelves, closet. Water in bottles give every day. Dark and quiet, well slept. As in most hotels, there is not enough hanging and shield in the shower. Near Lotus, 7/11. There are cafes, restaurants, massages, exchangers on the left of the road

The hotel is on the first line with a small swimming pool with a direct view of the sea. Lipa Noi Beach is very good in January: no waves, quiet and calm. Life in this area of ​​the island is slow, without many people)) The hotel itself consists of bungalow houses, which are worn out by time and guests, and possibly their absence during the pandemic. If you need privacy, this is the place for you.

The hotel is located on the beach of Li Pa Noi. The hotel is adjacent to the beach line, on the beach its own lying rooms from the hotel. There are showers, gamas, water entertainment (kayaki,sap). The hotel's separate villas are separated by a green natural fence, which helps to enjoy a good rest and privacy. The villas are comfortable. The pool is clean, deep, there is a children's area. It is convenient to have a relaxing area with sea view. There is a bar, a restaurant. Food is delicious, prices are normal. Service is warning, staff is polite, everything is done clearly. The sea is small, there are waterfalls.

This is a very nice Resort. The pool area is very nice and comfortable. The swimming pool faces to the apartments is very long so you can enjoy swimming. The gym is very nice, not too many machines, but from good quality. You need to consider for you stay several aspects: the pool area in the middle of the resort comes with an additional costs of minimum consumption which is quite expensive, at the other pool area you don’t have any laying possibilities so you should consider a room with pool access if you plan to often go swimming, the kids club is really just a very small room with some toys just for emergency when the whether is not so well. The beach is very small and not so nice. We would not recommend to stay there with small kids as there is nothing around you can not do so much with the kid. If you plan to travel as a couple definitely a recommendation if you’re flexible to move by grab or scooter. The staff is very very friendly. Not typically Thai friendly, but also very understanding and helpful. The breakfast is absolutely amazing. I think the best breakfast I ate in ages in a hotel and we do travel a lot.

Beach and sunshine. We stayed in one of the cabins, very beautiful too and a few steps from the beach. Attention to those who have light sleep, the sound isolation of the cabins is very bad, the birds are heard at night /insetos as if they were on the street. A breakfast is not a buffet, it has a menu from which you choose a hot drink, a cold and a dish and it does not allow repeating. To know the island, the ideal thing is to rent a motorcycle because the hotel is isolated.
