In some respects it’s a perfect location. Lovely easy walk to a private beach. The bathroom in he bungalow I was in was old and neeeds ripping out and replacing. Through conversation many are the sales. It also states a restaurant, but this must have been closed over a year ago. There is a small roadside diner a 5 min walk away which is good. But you can’t relax with a beer watching the see as I assumed from the Expedia description: It feels the site is a poor reflection of its former glory. I imagine one it was amazing but has maybe changed hands or no longer being run very well. Such a sham as I truly has potential

Definitely not as advertised. Pictures looked amazing, but once there...Overgrown foliage everywhere, pools not maintained (not sure if individual's responsibility). The access to our unit is an ankle sprain waiting to happen. The stepping stones were hard to walk on, I can't imagine negotiating them at night! The room was ok, but outdated. An odd odour to the room as well. Definitely isolated from some of the shopping & cafes as well. We checked out within 30min of arrival, and got no refund. I definitely do not recommend this property.

Awesome for the price

The family that runs this is outstanding they made us a couple of family dishes that were not on the menu. Food is amazing! The bay itself is gorgeous. It’s out of town a ways so no shopping. Very spacious rooms with decks, some have pools. It needs some grounds work,but we love our stay. You can take a cab into town. There is also a store across the street that does laundry. Loved it here. You won’t find that care at a big resort. Keep in mind it’s not the Ritz but you’re not paying Ritz prices. Has all you need.

Expérience Calamiteuse

Nous devions à partir de 15h, nous sommes arriver à 23h, sur les 3 chambres commandées avec vous, 2 n’étaient pas prêtes. Dont une insalubre et qui ne fermaient pas, une autre pas nettoyer et pour finir, nous avions demandé les chambres cotées à cotées et nous étions tous dispatches sur le site. On a mis 2 heures 30 à vouloir nous donner une autre chambre, j’ai du demander à la responsable de bien vouloir venir avec moi, pour qu’elle constate par elle-même, et à ce moment là, elle a vu et décider de nous changer 2 chambres sur le 3. La piscine n’étaient pas prêtes, elle étaient vertes pleines d’algue. Pas 2 piscines mais une piscine avec à proximité un petit bassin une extension de la première, mais rien n’était prêt, sauf ce matin à notre départ, elle était enfin nettoyer. Lendemain, nous constatons que la 3 eme chambre a elle accès au wifi contrairement aux 2 autres, mais la climatisation, ainsi que l’eau chaude ne fonctionne pas. Le surlendemain, toujours pas de clés pour la chambre qu’elle nous avait donné, jusqu’à départ ce jour, mais aussi pas d’eau chaude et pas d’internet. Il fallait aller chercher les femmes de chambres, car sinon notre chambre n’étaient pas nettoyés, et à chaque fois que nous évoquions les problèmes, on nous proposait de les régler le lendemain, ce qui n’était jamais fait. Sans parler de l’accueil déplorable, des fuites du toit dans les chambres jours de pluies, de la salle de bain ou l’eau fuit dès la baignoire et des wc…

Resort fantasma

O hotel estava totalmente descuidado , sem funcionários apenas uma gentil e jovem recepcionista quem tambem assumiu o papel de motorista de taxi na hora de eu ir embora... A tv nao funciona . A internet é cortada a noite. O hotel fica longe de tudo..eramos 2 o 3 clientes no maximo. Eu aluguei uma moto na chegada ainda bem. Restaurante fechado também. Carrisimo pra o que é.

Skønt afslappet ophold

Skønt, fredeligt og hyggeligt ophold i 10 dage. Dog blev vi meget forundret da vi ankom, for vores reservation var forsvundet. Heldigvis havde vi vores bevis med og vi blev opgraderet, så alt endte på bedste vis. Området ligger ret afsides, så hvis man vil f.eks på en anden restaurant end den ene, der er på stedet, må man leje scooter for at komme lidt væk. Der er dog også fri transport til Chaweng Beach hver dag kl 11 og tilbage igen kl 17. Det er et sted vi absolut vil komme tilbage til, især når vi søger nogle dage i fred og ro.

L'endroit parfait

Nous sommes retournés dans cet établissement qui nous avait séduit lors de notre 1er voyage a koh samui. C'est avec un plaisir immense que nous avons retrouvé l'authenticité du lieu et la beauté de la plage. Le service est agréable et professionnel. Vous serez accueillis chaleureusement par la responsavle qui a su nous faire passer un séjour mémorable en famille . Coût de coeur assuré : villa sur la plage avec piscine privée . A très bientôt The bay Samui ❤
