Ark
Bar Garden - Beach Resort, Chaweng Beach
Ark Bar is probably the liviest resort on Chaweng Beach. The bar is
always busy, the food is excellent and the staff are very friendly.
Be aware that you can hear music until around 2am each night. If this
doesn t bother you its the place to stay |

Rooms are clean and spacious. Staff were helpful in giving info about
what to do, where to go etc. Small pool right near the beach and a
good spot to meet people. Overall a nice place to stay. |

Great location, being on the beach attracted lots of people in the
evenings - range of age groups. Rooms good for the price and would
definately go back. Cheap and cheerful - staff very friendly, laundry
service good, rooms cleaned and sheets/towels changed daily - recommended
to the young and non-fuss pots! |

Rooms are decent, but a good size. The service I though was pretty
good. The food was good, but you can find cheaper places to eat in
town (which is a very short walk). The best thing about this hotel
is the location. If you re looking for a hotel located near the nightlife,
then this is the place to stay at. My only negative experience was
that I had my Ipod stolen from my room, so be sure to lock up your
valuables! |

I booked this hotel for 4 of my Czech friends who came to my wedding
in Kandaburi. This is great place which might be one of the best for
young people. Close to everywhere, breakfast and food excellent for
reasonable cost. Rooms ok. The bar and live music are also good and
cool. Definitely they will come back. Not suitable for family with
kids but they can stay in Baan Chaweng Beach Resort & Spa. |

I was in an upstairs room which was nice and had a good little balcony.
Best of the accomodation I stayed at in Koh Samui / Koh Pangan. Only
issues was the drainage in the bathroom (ie. flooding) and the internal
door into another room meant EVERY noise could be heard. Also if you
weren t going to bed late, you may be kept up by people making noise
outside. Good restaurant and beach location though. Right in the heart
of the action on Chaweng Beach |

We stayed at the hotel for 8 nights. Great rooms with minibar and
AC. The bed was quite hard but it was ok. Very good location and the
food in the resturant i excellent. The only problem was that no one
told us that breakfast was included. |

It s a wonderful place to be, if you re a young spirit. The Israeli
breakfast was great, the staff was friendly, the rooms were OK, but
the best part is the location of the place - the hurt of the GOOD
time, sun and bar. Definitely - I ll be back to this place. |

Our four kids stayed here ages 18 to 22 while we stayed a bit further
down the beach at another quieter resort. Defintely adequate and great
for YOUNG adult travellers WITHOUT kids. Location is awesome on the
beach and on the street to other bars etc. Staff and owners make it
fun in the bar and restaurant and it has a home away from home feel
to it as staff remember your names etc. Having said that the rooms
are bare bones basic and not cleaned throughly every day unless requested,
the pool is however not very enticing and could stand a paint job
or refurbish. The owners could work at getting rid of the child vendors
that frequent the beach restaurant as they are very rude for Thais
people and actual can spoil your evening meal which would otherwise
be perfect. Young families and 50 plus need not apply. |

Nice clean place - quite busy bar day and night. Don t lose your breakfast
coupons though or they ll try to jib you of breakfast! |
