"We stayed for a week and enjoyed it overall. The room is comfortable and the pool is good. The staff is friendly and the restaurant food is delicious. This place is really far away from major attractions and the infrastructure around is nonexistent. Also, the beach is not developed and you would need water shoes to walk around. There are other beaches around but you would need a taxi to get there. The atmosphere in the resort was peaceful."

The Privilege Hotel Ezra Beach Club

10/10 Excellent

"Room was great, pool was nice in my room, breakfast was limited options."

Samui Mermaid Resort

8/10 Good

"Beautiful place to stay. The cleaning staff at the place are brilliant! Always came back to a clean room 👌 only one small thing - at night, staff need to do routine walks around the site. The people next to us were shouting (drunk) until the early hours of the morning. A routine walk by night staff to stop this would be helpful as there is no one on the desk at night. Apart from that small thing, the stay was decent."

Chi Samui Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely amazing place, attentive staff, good restaurant / bar. Good pool area. Penthouse was fantastic."

Samui Pier Beach Front Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Right on the beach and a great spot to lounge in the sun. It is more of a family spot with lots of kids."
