Hotels in Bo Phut - Chawen Noi - Choeng Mun - Samui

Positiv:: Overall it’s a nice resort but very standard. The ratings are mostly from first time five star Koh Samui Traveler, don’t be mislead this resort can’t compete with the Ritz, Six Sense or Banyan Tree, I stayed in all of them. The villas are nice and comfy but nothing special. The staff is friendly but not as professional as in other hotels in that category, the little extra is always missing. For example, in every five star resort where I’m paying 400-600$ a night my breakfast which is served to the room is being built up nicely, not just placed in the room and all covers are still left on the meals. The fine things are totally missing, no attention to details. Again, it’s a good place to stay but if you can check into the Ritz for the same $, then go for the Ritz.

Negativ:: It’s super noisy from 08:00AM to 07:00PM as a new building is being constructed right next to the resort.

Positiv:: Very friendly and accommodating staff, one of my best stays by far. The facilities are fantastic and extremely clean. Will definitely come back to this resort

Negativ:: Nothing!

Positiv:: The quietness and the small little details of inside the room and resort and so clean ,also the all staff was excellent i really enjoyed my stay The staff surprised me with a birthday cake at 12 am i really loved it and all staff in the breakfast was greeting my thank you all

Negativ:: -the gym was too small and lake of trining machines (my husband dislikes) -beach side wasn’t as other resorts sea water was to muddy

Positiv:: Ausserordentlich freundliche Mitarbeiter, sehr umfangreiches und leckeres Frühstück, qualitativ hochwertige Speisen(Thai und internationale Gerichte) Hotelanlage sehr hochwertig und sauber, detailverliebt....., rundum eine Wohlfühloase.

Negativ:: Speisen und Getränke viel zu teuer, daher sind die Restaurants und Bars der Anlage oft sehr leer, was sehr schade ist, da man eigentlich gerne verweilen würde, da die Anlage einfach nur traumhaft ist....

Positiv:: Wonderful restaurant, SALA - and great pool and adult pool, happy hour poolside massage, beach area, decor, room size and room service, privacy, etc

Negativ:: Construction next door is loud, and children are always disruptive to other guests

Positiv:: This is a top notch, luxury hotel with a very good price point. The vibe is very zen and peaceful, and everywhere you look is just a perfect picture postcard. We decided to upgrade from the deluxe room that I originally booked- I'm so glad we did! We loved the privacy and convenience of our gorgeous Pool Villa, where we could lounge privately any time. The two outside pools are also lovely. Our favorite thing of all was the excellent food! Every dish we ordered was delightful. I do not recommend going off property for food- we tried several options elsewhere in Koh Samui (including the very highly rated Chez Francois in Fishermans Village) but nothing could compare to the simple elegance and refined flavors (not to mention beautifully presented) food at Sala. And the cocktails are to die for! Each one was more delicious than the last, and the happy hour is a fantastic bargain. Loved the Sala and will be back for sure!

Negativ:: I didn't use the spa because the prices were very high (similar to US Spa Resort pricing). Instead I visited the beach massage shack right in front of the hotel on the sand, where a very good Thai massage is about $10USD.

Positiv:: Everything , the service was impeccable

Negativ:: N/adel

Positiv:: Nice quiet beach, great recommendations for boat trips, nice yoga lesson, beautiful pools

Negativ:: Maybe some shuttle services to nearby sites

Positiv:: Der schönste Strand Kleine private Anlage, Sehenswürdigkeiten und Restaurants in unmittelbarer Nähe.

Positiv:: The design of the architecture here is really gorgeous. The facilities and the services worth the price. I would recommend couples to come here because the shower system and all the garnishes are romantic.

Negativ:: The sand on the beach is not really comfortable. The breakfast does not have a large varieties. Also the dinner restaurant taste really bad which the price is also too high.

Positiv:: Breakfast was excellent with a great choice of food, fresh fruits and a juice bar. the swimming pool and the beach are beautiful, quiet and very relaxing. We really enjoyed the free kayak and paddling board at the beach. Our Sala Villas were amazing: always clean, very comfortable and in a beautiful surrounding. Our kids especially enjoy the private pool. Quiet location far from the crowds.

Negativ:: Nothing. But a great bonus would be a shuttle from the hotel to some of the locations such as Bophut Fisherman's village

Positiv:: It is an excellent property right on the beach and very great staff.

Negativ:: The AC in our room could have been better.

Positiv:: Everything

Negativ:: I liked everything.

Positiv:: Location 10 Breakfast 10 Staff 10( receptionist Ten was

Negativ:: -Anantara vacation club staff !!!! One of them was rude and they dnt take no as an answer -Check out they asked me about beach bag!!! I didnt c any bag since check in but i was not charged -Room lighting could b better -Housekeeping they just made the bed nothing more, shower gel quantity for one use each person!!!!!!

Positiv:: Beautiful green grounds. Beach is great! Food. Restaurants very good!! Early dinner with kids is no problem as most of the places are open. We really liked the small/boutique set-up of the resort. It felt very personal and with small kids it was really convenient to be close to all facilities.

Negativ:: House keeping was good in general, but some things could have gone better. We requested house keeping at specific hours (to avoid disturbance during kids nap or bed time). That didn’t always work out. After we had just arrived and tried to get the kids to nap someone from housekeeping walked into our room without telling what she was up to and took towels and bottles of water. That was weird and left us with a bit of a weird feeling.

Positiv:: The location is superb and the beach is good for relaxing and swim..rooms are very nice..staff is very warm..breakfast spread is very good..since we are vegetarian, chef SAI(if I got the name correct) prepared very good breakfast for us keeping in mind our views and taste.Yoga session conducted by hotel was also excellent.. Fisherman's village is just few mtrs away and is very lively evening onwards with markets and restaurants, pubs,etc..

Negativ:: Nothing.. everything was just fine.

Positiv:: Sehr aufmerksames Personal, top Frühstück, sehr sauber und moderne Zimmer. Verpflegung und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in nächster Nähe 100m

Positiv:: Our Garden Deluxe room was spacious and bright. The outside areas were beautiful. A lively calm environment.

Negativ:: Nothing

Positiv:: Frühstück super, vom Lachs , frische Säfte, china suppe..., Restaurantes rundherum leicht zu erreichen

Positiv:: Kha was nice from housekeeping. I stayed jn the Royal suite and she was kind .

Negativ:: The. Yoga class could be more enthousiastic given .

Positiv:: Great location, seating around the pool and beach. The overall property was nice!

Negativ:: Room cleaning services have scope of improvement. The Anantara club membership group that sits at the Koh Samui airport(specially the lady who takes the lead here) was terrible. She convinced us to take Anantara taxi to other hotel as part of anantara welcome to the city and requested us to join membership presentation which we agreed as we were interested. We told her upfront that if will be busy on the fixed time then we would like to reschedule it for later. She said no probs and then her drama, calling non stop pushing started to attend it. Or else we will need to pay the taxi etc etc (which we mentioned her at first place that in case we will not be able to make we would like to pay for our taxi so she doesn’t hv to bear it from her salary, but she was just indecent and unethical in the way she was talking. Even though I was thinking of taking membership, I changed my mind because of this behaviour as you don’t expect cheap tricks and this kind of behaviour from a 5-star brand. Coming from the hospitality background myself, I would recommend hotel chain to be cautious of this kind of behaviour.

Positiv:: Great location for other bars / food. Great beach and pool facilities.

Positiv:: I felt like a queen. Thank you so much. It was super relaxed and amazing.

Positiv:: Great location. Beautiful pool. Excellent breakfast buffet.

Negativ:: Beach area not great. Sand very coarse and water muddy.

Positiv:: Incredible staff, great location, upgraded to room with veranda next to pool so ideal.

Negativ:: A large minority of the guests were arrogant and rude. I don't know how the staff put up with them. I bought a present for the young receptionist who kept her cool when dealing with requests that were totally unrealistic. They are lovely people and not second class citizens.

Positiv:: The staff were very friendly and helpful

Negativ:: They should have some rules to guests not to occupy the sun beds by laying down the towels and walked off for hours. Or simply to add more sun beds.

Positiv:: Das Ozo ist noch immer eines der besseren Hotels in ganz Thailand. Ist nicht ganz billig,aber Qualität hat ja bekanntlich seinen Preis.

Positiv:: The location and the facilities..

Negativ:: The rooms a little small..

Positiv:: Location, beach, staff, cleanliness, great beds.

Negativ:: Loved it just no room service :( Pool closes to early.

Positiv:: Very nice rooms, amazing breakfast, very friendly staff! The resort is located directly at Chaweng Beach where you can find lots of restaurants and bars. Pleasant to stay would recommend it!

Negativ:: One thing they could improve is to provide people with entertainment at night. After 7pm there is nothing to do at the resort and people are forced to go out.

Positiv:: Room was immaculate and the bed was really comfortable. Breakfast was amazing. Really good location to restaurants and bars along Chaweng beach and really easy to get a scooter to explore the rest of the island.

Negativ:: Food at the hotel bar/restaurant was expensive compared to the great quality stuff you got get just outside.

Positiv:: Hotel ist wirklich in einer tollen Lage. Sehr schön und modern. Toller Pool und Strandabschnitt. Alles sehr sauber, nettes Personal. Liegen waren immer verfügbar. Frische Handtücher für Pool gibts auch jeden Tag. Zimmer sind ok aber eben klein. Wir haben diese 5 Tage nur aus dem Koffer gelebt da kein Platz zum auspacken. Zustelltet kann ich mir hier nicht vorstellen. Frühstück war lecker, aber der Raum oft überfüllt und laut. Viele Familien auch mit kleinen Kindern.

Negativ:: Es gab ein paar Minuspunkte, manche kann man bestimmt verbessern: - die Tür zu den Zimmern ist absolut nicht ansatzweise Schalldicht. Durch den Schlitz am Boden hört man wirklich alles. Kinder laufen, Nachbarn diskutieren und somit ist der Schlaf sehr beeinträchtigt - Balkon maximal zum Aushängen von Sachen. Für alles andere zu schmal. Wenn es Regnet kann es sein dass er unter Wasser steht - kein Flaschenöffner am Zimmer. Ausborgen geht aber muss man sofort wieder zurück bringen. Eher unpraktisch - keine Steckdose im Badezimmer - Kühlschrank vorhanden aber leer und könnte kühler sein

Positiv:: I would recommend staying at ozo chaweng to everyone! the facilities and location were both amazing, the buffet breakfast was to die for! We stayed at a few places in Thailand and by far this was our best accommodation, we had the most amazing experience and the staff were absolutely lovely!!! :D Would definitely come back. It was even my birthday in ko samui and the staff at ozo chaweng went out of there way to drop me off a cake for it, which was such a pleasant surprise and absolutely made my experience even better. 10/10

Negativ:: Absolutely nothing!!!!

Positiv:: The location was amazing and the pool facilities were incredible!

Negativ:: It was pricey and the staff werent very helpful in booking activities so we had to book elsewhere.

Positiv:: The hotel was very high quality. Will book again

Positiv:: Lage, Zimmer, Essen, Strand

Positiv:: toller Ort für PAARE, FAMILIEN EGAL Dieses Hotel ist wunderbar ... testen Sie es einfach Sie werden es nicht bereuen!

Positiv:: Staff were very friendly, clean and quiet hotel, quiet but good location.

Negativ:: Property does not hold luggage after check out

Positiv:: The swimming pool is nice. The breakfast is well furnished and the crew is nice. The bed is good and confortable. 10 minutes from the seaside as there is some work on the private beach of the hotel. So no more direct access to the sea from the hotel.

Negativ:: Noisy rooms, you can hear the neighbour taking is shower. Very closed to the road, lot of klaxoon and noisy scooters. The lady on the desk of activities don’t answer when you say hello. If you want to do parties in the center of chaweng it’s better to take taxi rather tana 25 minutes walk

Positiv:: - freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal - modernes Hotel, große Zimmer und äußerst sauber - abwechslungsreiches Frühstück, gute Auswahl - Der Pool war eine richtige Abkühlung und auch der Bereich drumherum liebevoll hergerichtet - Strand in wenigen Gehminuten zu erreichen, absolut kein Problem, dass das Hotel nicht in erster Reihe am Strand lag. Strand- und Poolhandtücher werden einem kostenlos zur Verfügung gestellte - gute Lage. Restaurants, Einkaufsläden, Rollerverleih und vieles mehr in direkter Nähe. Rundum sehr zufrieden. Großes Lob!

Negativ:: Nichts auszusetzen.

Positiv:: Clean and staff friendly

Positiv:: The staff was just lovely! Helped me out any way they could and always with a smile. They had my room ready for me at arrival, even though I was early. Thank you! The hotel itself is beautiful. The pool area is great! The rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable. Breakfast had a lot of options and was tasty. I would definitely book this hotel again!

Negativ:: Can't think of anything bad about this hotel.

Positiv:: The interior

Positiv:: Excellent and comfortable

Negativ:: Walk distance from center

Positiv:: Sehr freundliches Personal. Hotel Shuttle Service reibungslos. Viele Geschäfte rund ums Hotel

Negativ:: Baustelle direkt gegenüber des Hotels, dadurch erschwerter Durchgang zum Strand zudem Baulärm am Strand. Da es aber zeitlich begrenzt ist, kann man guten Gewissens das Hotel buchen.

Positiv:: Die Unterkunft liegt etwas abseits. Hat keine eigenen Strandliegen, weis nicht wie andere User auf das kommen!! Der Strand ist generell zugebaut mit Hotels und nur die Gäste dieser Hotels können dort auch auf Strandliegen liegen. Das Frühstück war ganz ok, für jeden etwas dabei.

Positiv:: My husband and I stayed in this hotel for 5 nights. This hotel is exactly what you see in the pictures and more. Rooms are spacious and super clean!! Breakfast is varied and delicious. Pool was clean and a nice spot after the beach (though sometimes people were diving when you’re not supposed to) staff is nice and looking forward to please you. Special mention to the girls at reception, always saying hi and smiling. Even the security guard at the entrance was nice! The hotel is placed in a quiet area of Koh Samui but you can walk everywhere or rent a motorcycle for less than $10 per day.

Negativ:: The only things we did not like but won’t take points of my rating since we had an amazing stay are that, first, they asked for a deposit of 500 Bahts cash upon check in and it wasn’t stated in the booking ad (not even in the fine print). The manager said it was not stated since it’s in cash which doesn’t make sense to be honest. If you are are going to charge guests a deposit then it has to be stated somewhere so the guests have a heads up. The other thing was that they asked for a customs card you get when you enter Thailand which was strange and confusing since we had been already in other islands and hotels and nobody asked for anything. It was quite strange and made us feel a little uncomfortable to be honest.

Positiv:: Breakfast in the garden The room

Negativ:: Could not get to the beach

Positiv:: staff was grateful. location is near convenient store. room was clean and smell nice

Negativ:: nothing everything was perfect during our stay.

Positiv:: Tiring hotel in a quiet location approximately 10 minutes by car to the main drag at Chaweng. Magnificent beach with great access from hotel pool. Amenities adequate. The rooms are roughly divided into two areas - lobby and beach. Lobby rooms are a two minute walk down (and up) a steep hill to the main pool and beach. I would lobby hard for a room at the bottom of the hill (i.e. near the main pool).

Negativ:: The entire hotel would benefit from a refurbishment, though in its current state the property is clean and adequate and is at an affordable price point.

Positiv:: Very good location, well maintained and serviced.

Negativ:: Very expensive rent, food and other facilities overall, ended up spending over 20k THB in for just 2 nights stay!

Positiv:: Quiet location, nice beach and great pool next to the beach

Negativ:: One of our rooms was extremely noisy in the early morning caused by nearby located hydrophone.

Positiv:: Die Zimmer und das Resort ist wunderschön und sehr sauber. Es herrscht im Haus eine angenehme Atmosphäre. Das Personal ist sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Frühstück lässt keine Wünsche übrig. Der Strand ist sauber, das Meer ebenfalls. Wenn man allerdings nicht ins Meer möchte, sind die beiden Pools eine tolle Alternative. Das Fitnessstudio ist nicht so groß, aber trainieren macht trotzdem sehr viel Spaß! Auch die Äpfel, mit denen man sich nach dem Training belohnen kann, sind eine wohltuende Erfrischung.

Positiv:: Very clean rooms. Comfortable bathroom. The children were welcomed with open arms! Amazing and kind staff always trying to make your stay a bit more comfortable- in a very gentle way. Cleaning service was perfect- spottless! The breakfast was electrifying- i couldn’t imagine such a big variety! Seriously the breakfast was extraordinary. The beach and the pool were clean, the amount of moskitos was limited. I can only recommend this hotel! We decided to come back again :)

Negativ:: It was really excellent, nothing to dislike.

Positiv:: Excellent

Negativ:: Room, staff, beach, and location

Positiv:: The bed was very comfy and staff was really nice.

Negativ:: The buffet did not change everyday. There wasn't a spray hose installed in the toilet, which is common in Thailand.

Positiv:: Very friendly staff at reception and in kids club. Good local restaurants nearby.

Positiv:: Frühstück Top, Mitarbeiter super freundlich und aufmerksam, sehr sauber, die Anlagen sind sehr gepflegt

Negativ:: Der Laden ist in die Jahre gekommen, eine face lifting wäre gut.

Positiv:: Das Frühstück ist einfach der Hammer! Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und insgesamt ist die Anlage sehr gut organisiert und toll erhalten.

Negativ:: Die Monkey Bar war im Umbau, war etwas enttäuschend.

Positiv:: We enjoy our stay here always. We have been here over 5 times. The room is big, service is great and garden is nice. Of course the pool by the beach is excellent. We spent our time here everyday. The hotel is a little a bit away from Chanweng main street, but actually you don't really need to go out there. The breakfast is ok and meet the standard. We will come back again!

Negativ:: The only down side is that there was a black moon event going on during our stay. The hotel did sent a notice the same day morning about this issue. However, this is not what we were expecting. The party held from 21:00~05:00, the heavy music starting to pump up from 23:00. We phoned the front desk and they did offer us another room away from the party side to sleep. So, next time I would check the date to avoid such event date.

Positiv:: Direkt am Meer

Negativ:: Kein Lift, kein Toilettendusche
