Tara Hotel is such an amazing place, the warmest people I met, really happy to do their best to accomodate your requests, always greet with a big smile. Great café just next door. The hotel is very clean, safe, spacious rooms, and feels like home. Very sad to leave. Thank you so much!

Comfortable hotel but far from the action
I didn't realize how far from central Chaweng this hotel was when I booked it. It's perfectly comfortable, but I can't think of anyone to whom this hotel would appeal over other properties. If you want Chaweng, this hotel is a dangerous walk along the highway or a taxi/songkraew ride to get there. There is beach access through an overgrown vacant lot across the street. If you want peaceful, you're better off going to a smaller beach such as Mae Nam (which is better than Chaweng in many ways anyway). If you have your own transport and don't need nightlife or proximity to restaurants, this hotel could be OK. Finally, the owner tries to be friendly, but his English is too limited to get any useful info about the island from him.

Good hotel, poor location
The hotel is an excellent budget hotel. Staff were welcoming and facilities were clean. TV isn't a flat screen but not a big deal. However, the location is not ideal. While the beach is literally across the road, there are not many restaurant options nearby (especially cheaper options). To get into town, it's a 5-7 dollar cab ride, so you might as well just pay more for a hotel closer to town.

Nice hotel - very helpful staff
Very clean, good size rooms, quiet. Amazing service - the owner used his car to take us to the local markets - great atmosphere overall. Hotel located very close to the beach however had to cross busy road to get there. Not the problem once you know where to go.

You won't regret staying here! Fabby place and so helpful, 5 mins walk across road to the beach, to where the local food is great. Well worth the visit and actually good to be just out the main town area.

Ystävällinen omistajapariskunta
Vanhahko, mutta hyvin hoidettu ja siisti hotelli. Iäkkäät omistajat olivat ystävällisiä ja avuliaita. Erikseen ostettava aamiainen oli erittäin hyvä. Hyviä ruokapaikkoja oli viiden minuutin kävelymatkan päässä. Lähin ranta tien toisella puolella muutaman kymmenen metrin päässä. Pieni, karkeahiekkainen ranta. Parempi Chawengin ranta 20 minuutin kävelymatkan päässä, vaihtoehtona ohiajavat lavataksit. Isona miinuksena oli pääkadun liikenteen aiheuttama erittäin, erittäin suuri melu läpi yön.

Хороший отель на Чавенг-Ной
Неплохой отель через дорогу от очень хорошего пляжа. Хорошое сочетание цена/качество. Обстановка конечно чуть подуставшая, но все работает без нареканий. Рекомендую.
большое спасибо

Чистый отель, рядом с шикарным пляжем
останавливались в отели на восемь дней с дочерью. Номер просторный, уборка ежедневная и качественная. Полотенца меняют каждый день. За неделю пастельное белье сменили три раза. Более приветливо но персонала, чем в этом отеле, в Тайланде я не встречала. До пляжа три минуты пешком ( через соседний отель). Пляж превзошел все ожидания. Идеальный вход в море, нет ни камней, ни водорослей. Отливы тут малозаметны. Вода волшебного цвета мяты. Это лучший пляж на Самуи. До центра Чавенга можно дойти пешком или доехать на тук туке. Отель не имеет своей территории и расположен рядом с дорогой, но в номере шума не слышно. Отель подойдет всем кто желает проводить первую половину дня на шикарном пляже, а после двух часов дня изучать достопримечательности острова. Для тех кто привык не выходить с территории отеля и загорать у бассейна, данный отель не подойдет.

Ok hotel
The hotel is fresh and the staff kind and helpful. It is close to the beach but you have to cross a busy road. There are no sidewalks so it is hard to walk anywhere else. You have to take a taxi into town. The beds are hard but that seems to be the standard in all of thailand. The noice from the road was very loud in to the room. The hotel is ok for the price you pay.
Thank you so much,So sorry for noise of the road

nie wieder!
Das erste zimmer roch nach schimmel. Im zweiten Zimmer waren Urin und spermaflecken auf der Bettdecke. Als ich den Besitzer freundlich gebeten habe das Bett neu zu beziehen wurde er sehr unhöflich. Er sagte mir ich könnte ja auch ein anderes Hotel nehmen was ich dann auch tat. Das ganze Gebäude riecht modrig und die Lage ist sehr schlecht. In das Zentrum von chaweng läuft man mindestens 45 min. Da ich über Hotel.com gebucht hatte war das Geld leider weg. Nie wieder tara,nie wieder Hotels.com

Prijs / kwaliteit en voor paar nachten ok
Zeer sympathieke mensen. Dit verblijf was geen topper maar prijs / kwaliteit verhouding was echt ok. Ik heb goed kunnen slapen en ik had geen vieze gevoel. Ik zou daar niet de hele week willen blijven maar voor 1-3 nachten is het ok. Met betrekking tot de locatie is strand in de buurt en voor winkelen of dergelijke is scooter huren verplicht om te doen.

Petit hotel pas prétancieux ,ou on vous aurez un service 5 étoiles pour un prix très interessant.Bref un rapport qualité prix optimum.Vous etes placez entre chaweng et lamai donc au centre des 2 meilleures spot de l'ile, idéal,seul petit inconvéniant la route proche de l hotel ,un peu bruyante et un peu dangereuse,de toute facon faite très attention sur les routes de koh samui pour le reste profitez bien .Cet hotel c'est bien plus qu'un bon choix,le coté humain et la propreté son leur meilleurs atouts et pour ca nous on a adoré merci encore.

When just arrival, whole hotel power was down till 9PM, and maybe the hotel manager/owner was not in the hotel, we were hosted by a Thai lady only speak limit English, difficult to communicate. A bigger room switched for us, but no safety box. Quiet beach cross the road. And some little friends were running on the floor, gf did not feel comfortable then had to change to other hotel.

Struligt med balkong
Hade bokat rum med balkong men fick byta rum två gånger innan det blev ett med balkong. Hotellet var rent och fint. Personalen var hjälpsam men det fanns ingen möjlighet att ens köpa en dricka på hotellet på bilderna ser det ut som det finns en resturang. Ett hotell att bo på för den som inte vill ha något extra.
