Advantages: Secluded hotel & Cottages in natural surroundings ustilising natural materials. Very tasteful Disadvantages: Quite expensive.
Tongsai bay cottages and hotel. 5 Star resort hotel.
This unique hotel is situated in its own private bay in the North East of Koh Samui with its own private beach in a natural cove. The selling point of this hotel is that it is built in natural surroundings without damaging any of the natural flora or fauna and is eco friendly. Each of the 61 cottages are dotted around the bay hidden amongst the foliage some even have trees growing through the balconies. There is also a block of 24 suites that are down nearer the beach.
The resort was started over 25 by a man who after seeing the bay decided to buy it and transform it into its current day state without damaging the look of the bay. Each cottage is individually made with natural materials without impacting as much as possible on the environment. It is very secluded and away from ...
Advantages: Location and price Disadvantages: None
The Chaba Cabana is located at the northern end of Chaweng Beach, an area that for me was ideal. You are far away enough from the centre of Chaweng that you can enjoy peaceful afternoons relaxing on uncrowded parts of the beach, then in the evening you are only 35-40 minutes walk or a 5-10 minute taxi to the centre for all your bars and restaurants.
The rooms, although nothing spectaculor were of a good standard, very clean and spacious.
Breakfast is normaly included with hotels in Chaweng and the Chaba Cabana had a fantastic buffet spread in an airy beachfront dining room.
The service was impecable which is what you come to expect in Thailand and the check-in and check-out were very casual and unhurried.
I also liked this hotel because some of the other Chaweng hotels are split between the main road running through the resort ...
Advantages: Great Views, Romantic hideaway, Friendly Staff Disadvantages: Distance from main town
Travelling with my partner in June 2006 we had taken the overnight train from Bangkok to Surat Thani, costing £20 between us, where we had transferred to a boat taking us to KoSamui.
Upon arrival in KoSamui, we took a taxi ride to the Rocky Resort situated between Lamai and Hua Thanon, which took thirty minutes.
We were taken to the reception by a staff member and made to feel welcome with a complimentary non alcoholic iced fruit cocktail as we checked in at reception. We were asked if we would like to make any excursions whilst we were on Samui, that they could arrange for us, but we were exhausted and chose not to just then. Check-in was quick and whilst it was finalised (£95 for two nights, including breakfast) our luggage was taken to our rooms for us and we wandered up slowly with a staff member to our room, which was ...
