Sala
Samui Resort & Spa, Choeng Mon Beach
Pool Villa Suite is lovely but having the toilet outside in 90 degree
temperature with 70%-75% humidity at 8AM is not a pleasant experience.
In a high rise hotel you loose the ambience of the Sala Samui but
you can go to the bathroom in comfort. The breakfast buffet was adequate
at an additional charge to the $350/night rate this past April. Also,
they were not as helpful a staff as we experienced in Bangkok at at
the Peninsula hotel that was 2/3rds the price. We would not return
to the facility though it looked most impressive with the added benefit
of being away from the crowded main street of the beach town only
3 miles away. Also, based on 2 visiys I suggest you take a pass on
the spa. But go to Koh Tao via speed boat not the big boat for wonerful
snorkeling. |

Sala Samui Resort & Spa, Choeng Mon Beach
All the staff are so professional, friendly and polite. Both pools
are great. We stayed in a one bedroom villa suite which was brilliant
- you can t beat having your own pool (you re not overlooked so you
can go naked if you like!). In hindsight we would have got a sala
pool villa instead as we don t think it s worth the extra money for
a one bedroom villa suite (the only extra thing you get is a tiny
extra room which has an extra television in it). The bed is comfortable
and a good size. The bathroom is good as it has a roof but no walls
so you feel like you re out in the open. It s right on the beach which
is nice soft sand and clean water. I liked the location of the Sala
Samui as it s away from the noise of Chaweng but close enough to get
a taxi there in the evening. Internet is free there too which is handy.

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet hôtel. La 2 bedroom
villa suite avec piscine était superbe, idéale pour une famille.La
cuisine y est remarquable et recherchée. Le seul bémol : la plage.

Nice, comfortable yet stylish room and hotel setting. We stayed at
the garden pool villa and it was so private and romantic. Definitely
a place to go if you want private and relax getaway. Right next to
the beach. Welcome greeting was not as warm as we got from the other
resorts though. Be careful in paying cash for service there. We paid
cash for shuttle services and they didn t give us any receipt for
that. Then we got billed again when we check out. We ended up had
to pay twice for the service as they did not have any record on the
cash we paid them just the night before. So remember to get cash receipt
on any cash payments. |

stay comfortable. the service and food was excellent. we stayed in
the deluxe balcony room which was amazing but the pool villas are
even better.location of the hotel is perfect as its not on chawend

We stayed there 4 nights and it was absolutely blissful. Best resort
we ve ever stayed at. Facilities are top notch and staff are excellent.
Although expensive for Thailand it s worth every penny! |

Sala Samui Resort & Spa, Choeng Mon Beach
the sala samui resort was incredible! the best place we ever stayed
and i was upset to leave. i told them it was our anniversary when
i booked the room so when we arrived they presented me with a dozen
red roses! our lovely bed also had rose petals on it in the shape
of two hearts and the HUGE (biggest ever!) bathtub also had water
in it with floating rose petals. also they gave us a bottle of sparkling
wine - what a lovely welcome! we stayed in a 1 bedroom pool villa
and it was incredible. you have your own nice sized villa and a private
pool with an outdoor patio, 2 sun loungers, a dining table and a big
day bed for lounging in the shade. the whole villa/pool is all enclosed
and private so it is a romantic paradise! the bathroom is great too
- a lovely rain shower and HUGE bathtub, toilet and 2 sinks and it
is technically outside surrouned by gardens although it is covered
with a roof and has drop down clear side panels to keep bugs out.
it was a cool experience to feel you were showering outside. the resort
also has two really nice pools and is right on a great beach - clean,
calm water to swim in, jet skis & boats for rent and a nice scattering
of restaurants and bars that are all lit up at night with fairy lights
and tables on the beach! the staff at the sala samui were so friendly
and helpful and we took a day long tour for a great price all around
the island with one of the sala drivers. the food was just delicious
in the restaurant and the atmosphere was so romantic with candles
and even one table that was in the pool at nighttime. it sits in a
raised area with a few inches of water so you eat dinner with your
feet pleasantly paddling in the water! the breakfast was superb and
room service was 24 hours which is great. the only negative is that
the spa and massages are very pricey but they are amazing. it is way
cheaper to go out on the beach to get an hour long massage for only
6 euro! oh, they also have free internet access for guests which is
great! overall, we loved this place and will be going back next year!
you feel so looked after here and you won t want to leave!!!!!! |

This is a new hotel and the staff are also new. They try really hard
to please. The Pool Villas are superb, well equipt and spacious. Beach
is rocky outside hotel but is a lot better two minutes walk away.
Taxis available at modest cost to go to Fishermans Village or Chaweng.
The hotel bar lets it down a bit as there is no comfortable seating
or proper bar to sit at. It also closes early. The only real problem
we encountered were the flies that hovered about at breakfast & lunch.
The hotel needs to look into this. Would stay there again & would
recommend |

Booked 2 Bedroom Villa with private pool - it was wonderful. Staff
were very helpful and anything that you could have wanted was available.
Highly recommend. |
