"I had a fantastic stay at Jalmin Boutique Hotel and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Koh Samui.

It’s just a two-minute walk from the beach and only five minutes from the heart of Chaweng, with all of the restaurants, bars, and shops nearby.

"Overall the resort is well placed and has all the basic elements for a good time. 15 min walk to beach and shopping centre, so be prepared to wander and explore. Lots of rules, follow these and you won’t have any issues with management. Limited opening hours of poolbar and play areas (8pm closing) makes after dinner partying to be taken offsite. Low season at our visit, which gave us the resort nearly to ourselves. Airport transfer available, but grab just as cheap if preferred. If planning...

Al's Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here for 4 nights in September during low season and absolutely loved it! The staff are so helpful and friendly. The resort itself was well kept and clean. The sand deck bar and restaurant is right on the beach, and has the best views and set up to just lounge in the sun all day. A pick of two pools to swim in as well! Overall it was an awesome time and would 100% come back here. Highly recommend."

Montien House Chaweng Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"I stayed in the main building 3rd floor with no elevator - which was unexpected. The bed comfort was decent, the cleaning staff was amazing. The little villas off the main building is probably a better choice. The pool was right off the gulf and easy to walk too. You’re smack in the middle of everything which is great but also means the dance clubs will go all night. Noise machine helps. No need for grab unless you’re doing adventures. Good parking area. Walked to shops, malls, night markets, and bars."
