    I was staying at the private villa with plunge pool (with waterfall). It was wonderful, very well decorated, and besides of that VERY convenient. Good equipment, for instance the safe with programmable code, body lotion to treat sun burn, ... The personnel was very friendly, and did a lot to offer a pleasant stay, for instance early check-in, late check-out. The restaurant of Kanok Buri, where I enjoyed 4 evening meals, was of very high standards. I ate chicken sweet-sour, fried fish, beef with soy sauce and a burger, and all were delicious. Five stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

    The place felt a little run down in places but we are sure that is because of the slow return from Covid 19. The restaurant / bar was quite expensive and lacked any atmosphere even tho it is right on the beach. Breakfast was only ok and the coffee was not great. The wifi was nit great in our room, dropping out and buffering alot.

    We loved having our own pool! Our room was spotless and it was easy to signal when you were out and they could makeup the room, or when you were in and didn't want to be disturbed. We got the pool room at a great price. Even tho we didn't rate the property's restaurant and bar there a enough other places within an easy walk that were good. The place next door had a small convenience store which was a bonus too as it is quite a long walk (half an hour ish) to another one.

    The good things are overshadowed by the not so positive aspects. Staff is nice but not very helpful. We did not have hot water in the shower, and after raising this issue they told us they fixed it but nobody came and checked or fixed the issue. The hotel is nice but not a resort definitely and not worth the price (they even asked us to pay the whole sum in advance). The food at the restaurant is overpriced and pre-packaged (we had spring rolls that were barely unfrozen!!!), eg a piña colada for 300BHT when the next door bar has it at half the price. The staff at the restaurant are not helpful and seem to be missing when you need anything (like opening beach umbrellas). The beach beds are old and scrambling (with one having an old nail popping out). Keep in mind that credit card payments are only available from 1000BHT up.

    Overall this was a decent stay. The rooms are nice and clean, the beach is very nice and calm with few beds.. Ideal if you are looking for a quiet spot away from crowds. The garden is very nice as well, breakfast is very good and rich.

    The resort is quite far away from restaurants and centers, but you get for that the full safety per location. One negative aspect: needs upgrade on worn out materials. Some new flooring and paint would make it look so much better again.

    Very safe, private beach and the water is not deep, even on 30m from the shore. Very friendly staf, very flexible, easy in renting their car. Really very supportive in all needs as a family. Airco's worked well Great thanks for all that.

    Beachfront resort with elegant and comfortabel rooms and apartments. Staff is very friendly and food and drinks very tasty. Location on the quiet (West) side of Koh Samui.

    The busy road between the main hotel and the family villas. Was stressful crossing a road with lorries going past with children to get to breakfast/ go to the beach/ pool.

    Good breakfast, with a lovely view. Nice quiet beach good for a relaxing swim. Loved the little plunge pool in the family villa. Helpful staff with ferry timetables and taxi service.

    We eat the fish in the restaurant and it wasn’t fresh . And was frozen before the cooked it. So first we waited about 1 hour and then it wasn’t good taste. Me and my wife got diarrhea after that . And the price was higher then usual- 500tbh.

    The area of the hotel is like jungle. Is nice to see sunset from the restaurant. And the room is like small villa.
