Rocky
Resort, Lamai Beach
We stayed at the Rocky Resort for 11 nights in the Deluxe Junior Ocean
View villa. The Resort was superb with excellent service and all the
little things well looked after. The restuarant s dinner meals were
fantastic with an assortment of Thai and Western food depending on
your mood. I highly recommend the Rocky Resort for anyone wanting
a relaxing and quiet stay. The staff were by and large excellent with
any small problems being attended to quickly. The accommodation itself
was very nice and cleaned extremely well each day (and at convenient
times). The resort facilities were very good. On the downside, the
resort is a long way to Chaweng (20 mins and around 300-400 baht tax
ride) and a 20-25 minute walk to Lamai s restuarants and shopping.
Any purchases from the resort (food, drinks, car hire) were at Western
retail prices. Overall, though it was excellent. |

Resort had been great. Service was fantastic. I love the toilet at
the sea view rooms... they are so spacious. comfortable and big beds...
everything was great by their special arrangements for flowers and
chocolates were quite a disappointment. But on the whole, most staff
could speak english and facilities were always available. :) |

The hotel was very nice although the extensive building work did interfere
a little with the ambience of the place. Not much to recommend the
rest of Samui though, unless prostitution is your thing... |

the resort was lush & tropical with a wonderful view during full moon.
the room was appointed nicely with the acception of a very hard bed.
the meals were excellent, the bbq and breakfast were quite lavish
but the evening show Las Vegas style was a bit out of context with
the flavor of the islands. we loved the garden pool, sans children
and the butterflies were a real bonus. so were the exotic flower arrangements
and orchids abounding. thank you for a romantic holiday |

We stayed a total of 10 days in the ocean view apt with 3 kids. We
loved the hotel and the friendly staff. Very peaceful place with great
pools and gardens. The restaurant was very good. Sea view was to a
large degree blocked by trees. No swimming at low tide. Altogether
a very nice place if you don t have to be in the middle of Chaweng
or Lamai. |

BEWARE... DO NOT BOOK at this resort around late April - there is
a major festival in a temple next door that has rediculously loud
music playing late into the night... We were in a beachfront villa
but had to move higher in the complex to lessen the blow. The management
made no special accomadation or compensation for our frustration at
having to give up the nicer room on our honeymoon. Other than that
the rooms, the service, the pool and the location were all high quality.
The restaurant was a bit pricy, but nice. |

Nice rooms. Air Conditioning was unnecessary due to a wonderful breeze
and screen windows. The Deluxe Beachfront was 40 feet from the water
with a great view. The only problem was a balcony that faced the resort
instead of the water. Not entirely private , but at the edge of the
resort. The restaurant had good service, but was overpriced and I
was not impressed with the quality. Can t beat the view and convenience,
though. A nice italian restaurant is just down the road. Reception
desk was very helpful. They set up tours, car rental, transportation,
etc at our whim. They didn t exactly rush , but there was none :)
Overall: A great place to kick back and relax. You don t have to lift
a finger. |

My Husband and I have just returned from our best hoiday ever. We
have just had 12 fantastic days at Rocky Resort. The hotel was beyond
what we were expecting. The staff were always courteous and helpful.
Scott the head chef made food to die for. The pools and gardens were
very exotic and this made for a very relaxing holiday. We left there
to go to Bangkok for 2 days and i wished we d stayed on at Rocky s
as Bangkok was totally the opposite of what we d just experienced.
I would definitely recommend Rockys and hope that one day we will
be able to return. Thank you to everyone who works so hard at the
hotel. If there any negative comments it s just that the bar shuts
dead on 11pm and it would ve been nice for it to stay open a little
longer, especially as we met some lovely people and enjoyed spending
the evenings having a drink and socialising. Rockys will hold special
memories for us, as this was our first visit to Thailand and Koh Samui |

We stayed in the junior suite beach front for four nights and it was
beautiful. The room was imaculate with spectaculer views. We were
quite lucky as not all of these suites had views like ours. The food
was also really good and we ate in the resort most nights. If we had
to think of any negative points it would be that you need a taxi or
bike to get anywhere, if you wanted to leave the resort at all, and
the beach wasn t great for swimming. Overall we couldn t really fault
this place, it was exactly what we were looking for and would recommend
it to anyone. |

this hotel was the best ive stayed in!! we went with another couple
who had a beach front room which was lovely. we opted for a beach
view room which was just as appealing and a bit bigger. staff were
all really friendly and helpful and spoke good english. pools lovely.
if you are wanting a place for the beach only chaweng beach the nicest
as its rocky here but we still loved it and would definately go back!!oh
the other thing is beware as tax is added to absolutely everything
at your final bill! |
