Ko Samui hotels in Mae Nam

Well chose this hotel for my wife’s 50th Our first trip to Thailand and if the funds were ever again available wouldn’t hesitate to return to this wonderful country, just one thing about Thailand don’t go if you think it will be cheap it isn’t [if you value your stomach] budget “going out prices uk” and you wont be disappointed and when the odd bargain comes along that’s a nice surprise. That said the real value is in the cost of the hotel rooms 4 star luxury at less than the cost of a travel lodge. Ok The Samui Palm beach resort, got a great price online after much searching and booked a room in the Royal Wing, on arrival the place was pretty empty [mid Feb is early season] so lucky us they put us in a beach bungalow one back from the ones that line the beach front [these were well out of our price range] and very near the main pool, we couldn’t believe our luck, the bungalow [they call them villas] was very large, very high ceilings, four poster bed with drapes, room safe, wet shower room, sunken bath, table and chairs inside and out and a sort of private garden area with coconut trees over, yes one of the tiles was chipped and the paintwork could do with re glossing but that would be being very picky considering what we paid. Later we checked out the rooms in the royal wing this complex appears very new and has the longest swimming pool on the island [but certainly not the widest] the rooms were very nice and finished to a high standard some had private plunge pools, but they were a bit dark and some way from the beach. The beach was very nice private and quiet and BO PHUT is very quiet, out of the complex there was a 7\11 within walking distance and a two acceptable restaurants if you want a change from the hotel which has several restaurants although only two were open [like I said the place was not that full] Prices…… Starter soup or satay 120 batt [double it for pounds thus £2. Well the brochure shows sunbeds in pairs along a grass bank overlooking the ocean these are reserved for the beach front villas only,[your told to keepout] this is not made clear and is a bit misleading. That said the provision for other guests is ok even if beach sun beds are a bit in short supply.

This Hotel was incredible, Delight to stay here very big rooms The Hotel was not located on the beach but they did provide a free shuttle to thier sister hotel with excellent beach and facilities. Also the doors did not seal so need to watch out for mosquitos in the room.

excellent staff,make you feel confortable at any time, excellent english speaking staff. luxury room.

It was very lovely hotell, we loved it! Relaxing, quiet and romantic. The staff was friendly and spoked good english.

The Sunset Suite was absolutely beautiful. The walk from there to the reatuarant and beach is quit far but the hotel owned buggies are convenient and staff will drive you around. Hotel is located in quit part of Samui but that is why we choose this location. Beach towels are old and worn out and should be renewed.

Very friendly personel, excellent restaurant and nice bungalows. The life band that played on Saturdays, Mondays and Wednesday is just perfect.

Friendly staff, good breakfast, beautiful and quiet beach, nice area with garden and vegetation, well equipped room with comfortable bed, lot of activities. You can plant a tree, learn thai boxing and fruit carving, which were really nice to try. There are also snorkeling and kayaking possibilities. Hotel is environmentally friendly which is a big plus. The doors connecting the villas are not soundproof, so you can hear noise from your neighbor. Services are not always punctual, e.g. some day you get water bottles in your room some day not and schedules may change on short notice.

Lovely villa pool spa rooms, restaurant food was good, and overall a lovely place to stay I did not like the fact there is a small road inbetween the reception/accommodation and the pool and the restaurant.
