    Everything was perfect

    I stayed in a 2 bed bungalow which was right on the beach. The facilities were excellent and everywhere was very clean. They have a fantastic pool area and restaurant. The staff couldn’t have been more friendly .There’s a 7/11 and taxi rank across the road. 3 mins takes you to the town of Lamai and 10 mins to Chaweng. Would highly recommend.

    Maybe just more hooks to hang towels and clothes. But other than that it’s generally a great place to stay. Not a negative at all.

    Great hospitality from the staff team. Despite the good value cost of the rooms. Although a 3 star rated resort. The service is certainly on par with more premium establishments. You can have food and drink ordered to the poolside. And they do a happy hour on one selected cocktail from 5pm every day at 100 bht. About £2.20 per cocktail which is near impossible in London and with fresh island fruit! I would like to add the Pearl Lounge offers great value food and drink in an AC or semi outdoor environment which is good in hot humid weather. Especially in Lamai Beach area where AC cool rooms in restaurants are very rare. Unlike other nearby bars or restaurants. The prices are good and the cocktails are well made. Even Outrigger 5 star resort next door I don’t think can compete. The hotel owner is environmentally conscious and we like the fact they minimize plastic using metal or ceramic straws. There is a games and book library in the Pearl Lounge which makes it family friendly. Poolside. As it’s only 15 villa rooms. There’s plenty of sun loungers and space in the pool. No need to rush at all for a lounger. Some good views out to the sea. There’s a 7 Eleven opposite the resort for any extra holiday or convenience supplies. And taxis are easy to get or Songthaews.

    There is nothing to dislike about Pearl of Samui

    Pearl of Samui is a little oasis right beside the beach. The staff are exceptional with each member totally attentive to the visitor's needs. Beautiful pool. Dining is good.. The stand out for us is the very comfortable bed. A rare thing in Thailand.

    Rooms were quite small but it didn’t bother us.

    A lovely peaceful little resort! Staff are so friendly, especially the lovely lady on reception. Pool area is clean and has a lovely sea view. Rooms are modern and clean, including a private little garden. Beachfront location and 15 min walk into central Lamai. The whole resort is fresh and beautiful, wish we could have stayed longer than 4 nights.

    the room we had wasn't very big so we struggled to find places to put everything, especially as we'd been travelling so had quite a bit of luggage etc with us. The local beach sometimes had a load of washed up plastic and other rubbish on it but this was cleared periodically and I believe it's a problem everywhere in Thailand.

    breakfast was good. the local neighbourhood was fine - it was quieter than the more touristy areas which appealed to us. we walked along the beach to a couple of local restaurants and a bit further to the night markets where they had great food and some interesting souvenir stalls.

    It’s a short bike ride into the hub, but the resort is close enough to everything.

    Absolutely perfect stay. Clean, stunning view, friendly and attentive staff, and large well equipped rooms. Would recommend the villa next to the pool with a semi private sundeck. Good location, right across the road from the 7/11 and two excellent local restaurants.

    I did not use my bungalow‘s backside terrace because it was not cozy & neighbour’s (other property) AC was too loud. Nice idea, but not very usable. Anyway, I would still give 10/10 without this terrace 😉 there was a table & two chairs in front of the bungalow, this place was way better. Right in front of the resort, boats get repaired on the beach. It was no problem for me. Just don‘t expect the perfect sea view.

    The area is nice. Next to a bigger street but still quite for Lamai Beach. Walk 10 minutes to Lamai Road where you will find bars etc. You have some nice restaurants right next to the Resort, too. The Mexican Restaurant is incredible. The bungalows are small & clean, I had everything I needed 😊 Outside area around the pool is awesome, I loved it. Walked down the beach in both ways and beside some 5* Hotel I saw no place where I‘d rather have stayed.

    The Lamai beach is not the greatest, but its a good location to start the various trips, lots of nice restaurants around, just not so much for a swimming in the sea.

    It was nice, clean, positive, nice vibe, great pool, super friendly staff and wonderful owner.

    I missed not having breakfast as part of the package, especially since there is a restaurant on-site. This was the only resort ( out of 9 ) that breakfast was not included for us.

    The pool was beautiful along with our accommodations! The staff and owner could not be nicer!

    The views from our villa were spoilt by an overgrown bush which although offered privacy stopped us having the beach view we expected from the photos. The room was quite small with not much storage which is probably OK if you're not staying long. The mini bar was ridiculously full and we had to put everything on a high shelf just so we could put our things in the tiny fridge. I'm not sure how often the sheets were changed but we were there 3 weeks and spilt something which remained for at least 5 days.

    The hotel was very peaceful, plenty of sunbeds and good pool access. The staff were very nice. The location is good and it's easy to get a taxi for around 100baht to the centre. There are some local restaurants close and the 7-11 opposite was very useful. There is also an outside gym off the beach which is free (you just leave a tip) which we loved. We would recommend the villas.
