Cove Chalet, Coral Cove Beach
The rooms are very well appointed - v. comfortable beds. Great bathrooms
etc. The bathroom is built into the natural boulders however and we
did see a mouse run out of the gap on one occasion. We had the family
bungalow which was great but way back from the sea with no sea view.
Best to go for one of the front ones. The small coves were a long
way down (quite rickety steps), but great fun for children when there
- good swimming and lots of sea life to see snorkelling. However,
there was lots of garbage left between the big boulders down there
- it feels as though the hotel has just abandoned the coves - no sign
of any care at all which is a real shame. Food in the restaurant was
hit and miss, mostly miss, though breakfasts (included) were quite
good. Nice swimming pool. Good cocktails. All in all, a nice place,
but in dire need of a good manager to oversee it. |

Hallo..., Zum Ressort: Wir waren sehr zufrieden. Das Personal war
sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und engagiert. Wir hatten den Delux Bungalow.
Dieser hatte noch eine seperate überdachte Liegefläche mit einem wunderschönen
Ausblick über das Meer. Es war alles blitzblank. Das Ressort ist bereits
etwas älter und das Holz der Hütten und Gehwege, Geländer etc. sind
etwas wettergegerbt . Uns hat es nicht gestört, bzw. hat zu Preis/Leistung
gepasst. Um sich zu amüsieren muss man mit dem (Sammel-)taxi oder
mit dem Moped fahren. Das Ressort befindet sich genau zwischen Lamai
und Chaweng. Für Schwimmer gibt es sicher bessere Strände. Man muss
zunächst über einige Steine und Unterwasserpflanzen hinweg bevor man
in das offene Meer schwimmen kann. Bei klarer Sicht (die wir leider
nicht hatten) gibt es dafür vermutlich mehr Fische auch in Ufernähe
zu bestaunen. Viel Spaß bei Eurem Urlaub! |

This was a lovely hotel and we were very happy with it. It is a lttle
far from Chawang but all the quieter for that. The staff were all
very helpful, the service very personable, and the food very good
and plentiful. The only small limitation would be in high season,
when the pool would be really too small for everyone. That said, we
will definitely go back there again. |

Our stay at Coral Cove Chalets was exactly right after busy Bangkok.
We chose a room in the new wing rather than a chalet although they
looked lovely. The room was simply but adequately furnished and the
view from the balcony was to die for! Service was courtious and restaurant
buffet breakfast good.The restaurant also served good local food all
day.A pleasant pool area and attractive gardens leading to a small
beach added to our enjoyment although getting into the water would
not be easy for small children.I would recommend Coral Cove Chalets
to anybody wanting a quiet location not too far from more hectic nightlife.Not
many places within walking distance but quite reliable local transport. |

After busy Bangkok,Coral Cove Chalets was ideal to relax.We chose
a room in the new wing although the chalets looked lovely.The room
was simply but adequately furnished with a view from the balcony to
die for. Buffet breakfast was good with attentive staff who continued
to serve tasty local food all day.All staff were most helpful. Attractive
gardens led down to a small secluded beach where swimming was possible,
but would be difficult with small children. However,a shallow swimming
pool with plenty of sun beds was available,together with a massage
and spa area which was expensive compared with locals. Coral Cove
is secluded and not ideal for an all singing all dancing sort of experience
but if you are looking for a pleasurable relaxing time,it is superb.
There are a few bar restaurants within walking distance but the road
is quite busy and walking hazardous after dark.However local transport
to Chaweng and Lamai is cheap and frequent. |

We stayed in the sea view suite, very nice room, loads of privacy
as your not over looked. Food was good and reasonably priced but the
breakfast was cold every day! When you look at other hotels in the
area of Chaweng and Lamai Coral cove has a distinct advantage over
most of them....it s out of the way of all the bars and night life
which can get same same after just one night but still close enough
to indulge for just a few baht when you want. If you have the budget
go for the suite because the other rooms looked small and only a handfull
had veiws of the sea. Overall we had a great time and were very happy
with the room and facilities Coral Cove had to offer but would only
stay in the one room. |

We were really pleased with the hotel and would definitely recommend
it. It was conveniently located off the main road from Chaweng to
Lamai, so transport was easy. We stayed in a Grand View Suite, which
was very comfortable, and had a great terrace and day bed over-looking
the cove. There are 2 small private beaches, and some snorkelling
spots around the rocks. The pool was also nice, and the food served
there was great and very reasonably priced. We also had quite a few
treatments in the spa, which were excellent for a small hotel. |

Coral Cove Chalet, Coral Cove Beach
Lovely hotel with great facilities, superb self-contained chalets
and beautiful private beaches. Coral Cove is a relatively quiet part
of Koh Samui, but is only a short taxi ride away from Chaweng or Lamai
beaches so bars, clubs and restaurants are easily accessible. If you
re keen on snorkelling, Coral Cove is a particularly good place to
stay because there is a coral reef just a few metres away from the
shore which provides a home for several different types of tropical
fish (angelfish, clownfish, etc.) and the water is often clear enough
to see for several metres. |
