Wow, a lovely place! The friendliest owners made us so welcome and provided everything we needed, including organising taxis. Such big, clean and comfortable rooms and a lovely pool. Such a bonus running a shuttle to the beach every hour. Highly recommend!

A wonderful experience at Ozone Cave. We think the hotel is beautifully located in a quieter part of the island. The beach is only a few minutes’ walk away. Instead of a sea view, you have an extraordinary view of the cliffs. The rooms are equipped with large floor-to-ceiling windows. It’s a fantastic sight. We received an upgrade upon arrival, and the room’s amenities were great. I personally loved that there were plants in the hotel room, which made it feel extra cozy. The rooms were cleaned daily and were very clean. The service staff is extremely friendly and attentive. We stayed there as a family and can highly recommend it, even with a small child. The area offers many opportunities to enjoy local cuisine. Far from the party crowds, this was a wonderful stay.

This is one of those really special places, run by a family that has done a fabulous job creating an oasis in the middle of a normal Thai neighborhood. The room, the cafe, and the free activities they offer, are all great. A perfect end to our trip to the islands before flying back to Bangkok.

We had a great time at Yangyai garden hotel. The rooms were so spacious, clean, and comfortable. Mr Ping was one of the nicest hosts we've ever met - he goes above and beyond to make sure you have the best stay possible. He shared many recommendations for restaurants and sites to visit and shared useful information on bike rental etc. The pool was so nice and the hotel is located away from the main road, making it a peaceful stay and guaranteed good sleep 💤. Thank you Mr Ping for being such a legend!!

What didn’t we like?! The place is gorgeous! The food AND drinks at the restaurant were delicious (both Asian&western food)!! The staff was kind and very attentive! We could communicate via WhatsApp. The beds were very comfortable. Loved the baskets provided to organize our stuff. The separate beach and pool towels were so useful! They organized pick up from Nathon pier when we came and to the airport when we sadly had to leave.. we chose it mainly to relax at the resort.. info apart from the hotel: we did some planned activities and the location of the resort is within the free transfer. The fisherman’s village is 15-20mins by taxi. Chaweng 25 with a bit of traffic. So it was all amazing! I can’t wait to go back and bring our friends or family with us!

I had a fantastic stay at the Boutique hotel owned by Alex. Despite being in a wheelchair, Alex's courage and determination shine through. Carine's friendliness and assistance with boat transfers and taxis were invaluable. Susan, a lovely Thai lady, added to the charm. With only 5-6 rooms, the hotel feels like a secluded paradise reminiscent of Melrose Place, ensuring privacy while still offering opportunities to meet other couples. The hotel, accommodating up to 14 persons, is perfect for private rentals with family and friends. The location, just a 2-minute walk from the beach, is ideal, and the affordable and delicious beachside food adds to the overall experience. I look forward to returning in the future. Highly recommend!

This place is amazing, would definitely recommend staying here. Even if you don't want to fish, it has everything you would want. It has a lovely swimming pool, the rooms are spacious and clean. The food is really good and not expensive, good portion size and always nice and hot. The staff were amazing and always so very helpful. We did book 3 nights then stayed 5, we stayed in all 3 different rooms they had on site and can't fault them in anyway. We will definitely be going back and this place deserves more then 5 Star's, your stay here is just amazing and they will do everything to make sure your stay is complete. Chris & Tom are both very happy to help with anything you require, even running you round to a shop as no Grab available. They go above and beyond to make sure you have the best time ever thank you 🫶

We came here to have a relaxing week during National Week in October. My husband and daughter had some of the best scuba diving experiences and they would definitely love to go back and do more dives (yet there are so many other places to go and see....). We stayed in the southeast for the first part of the trip, and found that to be a bit secluded - great resort, but a little too isolated and cut off for us overall. The second half we stayed in Sairee Beach area and it was amazing! So much going on and great restaurants and sunset views at your fingertips. We had wanted to rent scooters to explore the island more, but after seeing the condition of the roads (very steep and sharp turns), and so many people with "Thailand tattoos" from road rash, we decided against it, so we didn't get to see as much as we'd hoped. Maybe next time....

I read a lot of reviews about the amazing beaches of Koh Samui. I tried many of them and I can tell with confidence that Chaweng was the best by miles. I was based in Chaweng and I though to check the other beaches. I walked all over Lamai, which is very panoramic, but there is a constant stink wherever you go and the beach inside has a lot of corals/rocks that will probably hurt your feet. Crystal Bay was tiny, not comfortable because of the corals and overcrowded. I didnt see Fisherman Village beach while the others on the east side looked dirty. Choose Chaweng

Easily accessible, used Grab, taxi service to get around, reliable. Walked along the beach but you can only go so far as you then have to walk through the water which is waist deep. You can walk along the road. Nice restaurant called The Cliff if you want to treat yourself. Did 3 trips, the first was the island tour which visits temples, look out and waterfall. Second tour was to the elephant Haven, this was amazing, very sad when you hear the stories of how the elephants ended up there after being rescued. They do a great job. Third trip was to Pig Island and snorkeling. Pig Island was 1 hour which I thought was a bit too long, maybe just half an hour should be allocated. Snorkelling was great and the lunch which was included was beautiful.

We went to visit a friend who recently moved there. It is not really a tourist town. We went to the Mangrove Forest and it was run down and unimpressive. The Saturday Market was underwhelming. The highlight was the view from "the hill". Surat Thani is what it is... a large city that gives you access to Koh Samui and a city for locals.

Haad Rin is a beautiful beach with plenty of bars and restaurants lining the shore and lots of shops, restaurants around the strip. During Full Moon week, the atmosphere gets wild—every venue competes with fire shows and loud music, creating a chaotic but energetic vibe. I imagine the off-season must be much more relaxing, though I haven’t experienced it myself. Personally, I found the Full Moon Party a bit disappointing, though that might be due to my expectations. I'm 40+, and I was hoping for a more organized event with better music and a diverse crowd—people of all ages from different parts of the world. Instead, it felt more like a chaotic gathering of mostly very young partygoers (early 20s), primarily from England, Germany, and Denmark, whose main focus seemed to be drinking and drugs. In November 2025, the original party was canceled due to the passing of the King’s mother, so I can’t speak to the usual experience.

We used Getyourguide & did a half day tour of the island which was really good, our tour guide told us loads, this also helped us tick lots of sightseeing of our list in less than a day. We were staying a short walk away from fisherman's village which was perfect because it was quiet but not too far to get a grab to Chaweng beach that we could swim in. Perfect location if you don’t want to be too close to the party.

I choose to stay in Bann Tai for its central location. There are much nicer locations on the island to stay, however if you are like me, and like to explore, then this location is best as its in the middle of the coast line, and its close to central heart road ways that take you to any part of the island quickly.
