Scenic Hotels in Koh Samui

"This hotel from the starters fantastic! Awesome customer service and very friendly and helpful! Nothing was to much trouble also gave great recommendations on were to eat and go! Rooms were spotless although on the smaller sideburns enough space for 2 people and having the balcony was a great addition. Breakfast was not a massive variety but what they had was excellent. Location was right in the middle of Chaweng and could not have been a more central location. Would definitely recommend The Stay to any body! Also great view just to chill and have a smoke overlooking the ocean"

"The hotel is generally clean and the staff are polite. The environment could be improved by having better noise insulation (I could hear aircraft noise and noise from the corridor clearly at night). The gym closes too early. Overall, the price reflects it."

"Great stay! The hotel is very clean, well located near all the main conveniences, and the staff are always friendly and smiling. The best part is the direct access to the beach through the pool area—super practical and really enjoyable. Perfect place to relax and feel welcome."

"Baan Hin Sai Resort & Spa — Samui, Thailand This hotel is all about nature, tranquility, and the feeling of living right inside a jungle. The hotel grounds are incredibly well integrated into the surrounding landscape: lush greenery, massive rocks, and varying elevations – everything looks completely natural, without the impression that nature was 'forced' to accommodate construction. During our stay, we saw monitor lizards on the property twice. They scurry away and hide immediately, but the very fact of having such neighbors is more of a positive, confirming that the place is alive and authentic. It's really cool that the hotel exists in harmony with the natural environment, rather than instead of it. Upon check-in, we were offered drinks (though quite sweet), and they thoroughly answered all our questions. Throughout our stay, they were always available and assisted with any issues that came up. Guests are driven around the property by Thai staff in two electric buggies, which is convenient given the hotel's terrain and size. Every evening, musicians play and sing at the bar near the reception. The atmosphere is very lively and warm: you can dance, sing karaoke, and they even offer complimentary alcoholic cocktails, which is a pleasant and unexpected touch. Mornings here are a special delight. There's a stunning view of the sunrise, the sea breaking against the coastal rocks, and lots of sea foam. It's incredibly beautiful and meditative. The sea is clean. Breakfasts are buffet-style, but without a 'wow' factor. Our rating for the food is 6 out of 10: neither the presentation, approach, taste, nor variety impressed us. We didn't have lunch, dinner, or the festive menu, so we're only rating the breakfasts. The staff are welcoming, attentive, and always ready to help. This is one of the hotel's strong advantages. We used the pool with views of the sea and rocks – the pool was clean, and we never saw anyone else in it during our entire stay, which added to the sense of seclusion and privacy. Ratings: Grounds: 8 / 10 Room: 7 / 10 Food (breakfasts): 6 / 10 PS for the hotel: It would be great to create a hub area near the reception – a place where guests could spend time during the day and evening. A table tennis table, billiards, and a small area with a pull-up bar and parallel bars would fit in perfectly."

"The hotel staff were all very friendly! There's only one restaurant, but the menu is extensive and the food was delicious. The room was simply furnished. Amenities include only soap and body shampoo, so you'll need to bring your own. There are two pools, but they're not very large. However, they were never crowded. The beach in front of the hotel isn't very large, but the water was so clear you could see the fish with your own eyes. On the downside, there aren't any shops within walking distance, so you'll need to take a taxi to get around."

"We absolutely loved the hotel. We ordered the deluxe room with outdoor bathtub, and they gave us a small room, so I suggest you check you got what you paid for. We asked to change rooms and after that everything was amazing. The breakfast is good, there are free yoga and Pilates classes, the location is great. Would really recommend."

"The staff in charge of luggage storage and handling at the front desk are friendly, responsible, enthusiastic and serious. The air conditioner sometimes leaks like a waterfall, so it doesn't matter if the bed is not next to the wall. Because the edge of the bed is hard, be careful not to pounce on the bed or you may hit the bone.The hotel is quite good, simple and original."

"A bit pricier than the kind of places I normally stay, but totally worth it. Close to the beach and the night market but secluded and quite quiet, it's the perfect place to stay. They bring you new water everyday and the swimming pool is a great place to cool off."

"+ Lovely location, not far from the main part of the city by motorbike. The beach outside the hotel is very shallow and clean! great for a morning swim. Other hotels can be found along the beach in the same area..just saying. BUT, here is the huge let down with this hotel. - Blood stains were found on the bed sheets on the first night, so had to request a change of sheets immediately. A couple of days later, my ENTIRE back and shoulders was covered with BED BUG bites. I had to see a dermatologist immediatelt because I was afraid, and they confirmed it was due to bed bugs at the hotel. After 5 days, the spots on my back and arms are still not recovered, truly disgusting experience. My arms arent as bad as my back! Also, just before checking out of hotel on my way to the airport at 7am, the hotel accused me of not paying 4000THB for a trip I apparently didnt pay, which was a complete lie and now I wonder how many people have fallen for this scam. I paid all trips with credit card on the first hour of checking in at the hotel, all proof of payments are on my bank statement. The security guard would not let my taxi leave the hotel and called the police. I ended up leaving, because I had proof of payment on my bank statement. The hotel were proven wrong, but did not apologise to me for all the accusations. Would I book at casa de mar again? If it wasnt for the last few days, I would...but after this experience...fuck that😄 book another hotel along the beach, cheaper prices, same experience."

"Upgraded to beachfront villa which was amazing! Very warm hospitality & excellent Thai service, as always. Super love the Anodas spa svc. Lovely couple set up! Will return to resort in future :)"
