Hotel was great, food was wonderful - very good, location was ideal,
staff was very helpful. Only comment would be, would be nice if there
was a gift shop onsite at the hotel for sundries, etc. Would recommend
to anyone else and would go back! |

Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach
We had read good things about the Amari, so decided to try it out,
having stayed at Nora s, the Chaweng Regent and Central Samui before.
Arrival was effecient and friendly. The rooms were, however, adequate
(and questionable value therefore)with very small bathrooms where
one could hardly fit two people in in any comfort. The shower cubicle
was small and cramped. When we arrived we also encountered problems
opening and closing the room safe, resulting in having to call for
assistance, the kettle needed replacing, and the TV stations had a
scarcity of English language programmes compared to other hotels.
That being said, the breakfasts were the best we had encountered in
any of our previous hotel stays and the bar area was pleasantly decorated
and a generous 3 hour happy hour would be welcome if one wanted it.
The pools are pleasant but if you want a quieter time use the (bigger)
one away from the beach (across the road), as the beachside pool is
very heavily used by kids. Food is very good, and the Italian restaurant
-Prego- is fantastic, as always. |

Don t accept upgrade service, we booked superior room, it was so modern
with bath in the picture; however the front desk officer offered the
family room upgrade for us, it was not as good as superior, the decor
was a bit old, no bath, shower room was very small; over all, the
services of the hotel are excellent, everyone is simily & showing
their happiness to meet you! |

The Amari Palm Reef Resort is an absolutely wonderful resort. The
room, which was a standard room, was nicely furnished, large enough
for our needs, and quiet. The two pools were beautiful, and the grounds
of the resort were lovely and well maintained. Breakfast is almost
too much. If you can t find something you like, you re just not hungry!
The beach is stunning, and the water is really nice. Bring your own
snorkeling gear if you have it; you can see quite a number of small
fish and crab on the coral about 100 meters off the shore. The only
complaint, and it is very, very small, is that if you stay on the
beach, the local vendors will come up to you with their goods on a
pretty regular basis. This is not a big deal, but if you don t want
to be bothered, you can put down your towel on the lounge chair on
the hotel grounds just above the beach. Overall, I would rate this
hotel a 5/5 stars. |

Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach
Transferred from Baan Chaweng as met up with friends at Amari Palm
Reef for the 2nd half of our holiday. Amari Palm Reef is a spectacular
resort, two large pools, lots of chairs to lie on and massive towels.
It was situated down the end of Chaweng Beach, small walk to shops.
Hardly ate anywhere else as the food was the best we have ever had!
Did a 3 course set dinner offer for 1350 BHT ea and it was out of
this world. 5 courses we could not finish AMAZING FOOD fine dining
at such low cost, faultless!!!! Best food on Samui! Cocktail hour
fantastic, 2 for 1 at 230 bht each, halve that and you can get drunk
very quickly! Service faultless, staff very friendly. Cocktails expertly
served and mixed. Lobster night ROCKED! Liked rooms better at Baan
Chaweng (bigger and cheaper) but you have to weigh up what you prefer,
Amari had great swimming pools. We staying in room 4114 which was
ground floor right by pool. Friends stayed in upstairs superior room
and had higher ceiling and sep shower to bath (ours was combined)
nicer being upstairs to look over pool, but both very nice. Suggest
you ask for room across road by 2nd pool, as we would retire there
after spending day on beach, and by main pool. If not staying at Amari
DEFINITELY eat there it was INCREDIBLE food, cannot say enough! Sell
lovely essential oils at Sirvana spa, very cheap. Oh almost forgot
BREAKFAST! Oh my god! Food like you ve never seen before!!! Beautiful,
lovely resort would recommend to others. |

Amari Palm is fantastic. The resort design and facilities are outstanding
and the staff are just tremendously happy, helpful people. The breakfasts
are a feast and are to die for and the restaurants are very good.
Two wonderful swimming pools and a great location. The whole feel
of the place runs rings around other options in Samui in this price
bracket. |

Just returned from a 12 day stay at the Amari and found it to be nothing
less than superb. Its in a great location, far enough out of Chaweng
to get some peace and quiet, and only a short walk or taxi ride to
the mayhem of Ocean Road. The hotel itself is outstanding. In fact,
I would say its probably the best hotel on the strip in Chaweng, the
rooms and public areas are beautiful, there s a choice of 2 pools
and the service was excellent. The food was good as well, a little
bit more expensive than some of the beachside restaurants but I guess
you get what you pay for. Would definetely return here in the future. |

We had a great time. The hotel is beautiful and very clean. The people
who work there are friendly and professional. The location is perfect.
Close to the centre but less crowded and noisy than there. Simply
perfect. |

Absolutly wonderful! The hotel is in a quite part of Sawadee but close
still close to the center that you can walk. Nice calm beach, wonderful
lounge chairs, away from the beach vendores. Very nice pool. I loved
the jacuzzi at the pool. I loved the big towels that they had to put
on the chairs. We had come from another hotel where the towels were
smaller and the skin in contact with the plastic made us sweat. We
went on our honey-moon and they had our room very nicely decorated
with flowers on the bed and cake and fruit. Very nice touch! Staff
is very curtious and reacts right away to any problem. I liked the
movie borrowing system they have. The fruit by the pool. The food
at the restaurant is wonderful. The best breakfeast I ve ever seen!
And there was always something diferent. We Totally recomend this
hotel! Thank you for making our honey-moon wonderful! Rolando & Celia |
