Koh Samui Villas

Away from the hustle of central Chaweng, so is a good spot to be based for quiet times and used as a base to explore the island. Beachfront pool villas are nice, large and great views of the ocean. Private pool is a bonus and well worth the upgrade. Hotel was busy when I stayed and everyone seemed to be happy and enjoying themselves. The pool isn’t the largest but plentiful for the amount of rooms. Don’t forget, there are the villas with private pools, so a fair number of guests will be in their own area. Access to the beach is not directly in front of the hotel, but that’s a good thing otherwise I would be hearing everyone in front of my villa each day. Access is the side of the resort just past the restaurant. Along this stretch of beach has a few other hotel bars and restaurants to eat and drink in and if you head to the furtherest headland point, and head inland, you will come across a handful of bars and restaurants. As many people have said, the hotel is next to a road - but like most hotels in Samui, it’s just the design of the island. You can avoid the main road for your walk to the local area by going along the stretch of beach. And when you are on the island, why wouldn’t you want to walk along the beach?! So don’t listen to those comments about nothing nearby. If you want the hustle of the nightlife, Chaweng central is 15 minutes away. Get on the shuttle or order a taxi for 300thb. It’s a 4 star hotel, trying to get back to some kind of normal after covid and over time, I am sure the owners will reinvest their money to make improvements where some other guests have commented about in other posts but I do think it is dependent on the room type you book and/or are assigned as most of them are fine. Give it a go, it is worth it. I’ve been to many hotels over the years - more than the average Joe - and it’s only recently where I’ve checked in and out of two hotels on the same day in all these years.

It's not often I leave bad reviews, in fact this is the only time but I feel it's warranted. We booked the 1 bedroom villas on the beachside, once we caught our navigo there, none of us knew where the hell to go, this includes the navigo driver who telephoned the number on our itinerary and got no one at all. It was only by chance I walked into an office with no one manning it that I found someone in a back room to check me in. The reception phone to call someone is static and cannot make sense of anyone talking on the other end once they finally pick up. Once we were into the villa, that's when most of the problems started. It certainly isn't 4 star as it advertises itself. The positives first were the rooms were big, the pool was private and the wifi worked well. There's also a decent coffee shop just down the road. Now unfortunately onto the negatives * very overpriced for what you get * the beach is covered up by trees so no sea view * once at the beach, it's covered in litter and not clean * the shower goes hot-cold-warm then stays cold * the jacuzzi was dirty and the water that came out of that was brown and horrible * the wood skirting needs to be replaced as the water has damaged them over time * the bedside lamps are red which makes the room feel like a ******* (they are also chipped/broken) * the 3 tvs in the place were not working and once I tried to tune back in, still nothing. On top of this, the DVD player also wouldn't stay on * the frypan and egg flip had MOULD on them when I went to use for breakfast, then when I returned to the office to get replaced, I was told I would get a new one later that day, 3 days later on departure and no clean frypan. * constant leaves in the pool from the surrounding trees Overall I wouldn't recommend this place to stay at as its way too overpriced for what you actually get.

The drainage of shower was partially blocked, need few hours to be drained. Safety Box did not work, need to bring own property along. Breakfast is to take order by yourself, not wasting of food. No 7-11 nearby, need to walk to12 minutes on the highway. TV was with no signals, wifi was ok. The electrical socket is not situated by bedside to charge mobile phone, not so convenient.If you want to have a silent holiday, it will be suitable. Also the hotel no need to pay for the deposit, it is rarely happens among hotels in Thailand, other hotels should learned about this policy.

Clean and hygienic, high-end atmosphere, service in place, very large, spacious and bright, suitable for partying, the bed is large and 5 people can sleep no problem, all kinds of small details are very careful.

This is a villa type hotel run by the French privately. It is located on the top of a hill and faces the sea. The building is very artistic, the environment is beautiful and quiet, and the grass and trees in the courtyard are carefully designed. The western breakfast was delicious.

The effect of Covid-19 on tourism in Thailand is still being tragically felt. On Koh Samui there are abandoned resorts and some which have already been bulldozed. Meanwhile, those remaining eke out an existence with vastly reduced patronage. It is with this in mind that I review Pawanthorn Villas, where we recently stayed. Ours was the largest 4 bedroom villa and, although a little tired, it served our purpose admirably. The 4 x bedrooms all had separate external entry which enabled plenty of privacy amongst our group of 8 adults. Each bedroom was well appointed and with a generous en-suite. The beds were large and comfortable and the towels were changed daily. Some of the electrical work would not pass inspection in Australia, but it was out of the way and posed no threat. The large dining/lounge became our main communal area and the 2 x air conditioners kept the Thai heat and humidity under control. The fabulous pool became our other communal area and was appreciated by all. We booked through Air B&B, so daily breakfast was provided at the adjoining restaurant Chez Kun Ying and the menu was extensive. They even opened early on a couple of occasions because we had an early tour booked. We also had dinner there and were pleasantly surprised. Chaweng Beach, with its abundance of restaurants, bars and night-life, is 2.7 kilometres away, too far to walk with no footpath but easily accessible via taxi or hailing a tuk tuk which are constantly cruising past. We hired a minivan and appreciated the convenience that it provided but, when needed, tuk tuk's were excellent for our party of 8 and the 200 Baht fare (just under Aussie$9) was reasonable. There are a number of different sized pool villa's ranging from our 8 person to 2 person. We found the staff to be delightfully helpful, friendly and eager to please. Pawanthorn is not perfect but the shortcomings are few and easily overcome. As patronage increases, we hope that a freshen-up would correct any issues and we would have no hesitation in staying there again.

Me and my boyfriend stayed at Skye Beach for 5 nights and everything was amazing. Very clean, spacious, amazing villa with a gorgeous view. The staff were perfect and made the experience I think! So attentive and kind and always had a big smile on their faces. Breakfast was also lovely- set up every morning my staff in your own villa and was really enjoyable. This is one of the best resorts I have ever stayed and would definitely recommend. The only thing I would say is that if you are in the villas that aren’t on the beach front, the pools lack a bit of privacy as the people from below can see right in. The location is also not really close by to anything but this was our own mistake for not doing enough research on the area but I still wouldn’t change staying at this amazing hotel!

Positives: Lovely authentic bungalow hotel, secluded beach, lovely pool area, beach towels provided, lots of Instagram worthy places for photo opportunities, area for massages right by the sea, varied breakfast choices, big rooms, nice dressing-gowns, safe for valuables, Smart TV, fridge, water replenished daily, outside areas were lit-up lovely in the evening, welcoming reception area, very helpful & willing staff, lovely food in the restaurant, big portions, good value bar prices, journey to & collection from Full Moon Party service available and close to airport & Bangrak Pier. They also provide airport transfer service before 4.30pm. Negatives: aircon was a bit noisy but didn’t stop you from sleeping, light came in at night through the glass doors (would be nice to have a curtain to pull over these) only basic toiletries provided, no cup in bathroom for teeth bits (we used a glass from the kettle area) and quite a hard mattress but they did provided a soft topper after the first night which was a lot better, Other than these small things, what a gem of a place this is!!! I’d return without hesitation.
