The room - private pool with a beach view - was well worth the splurge. A nice spot for people who prefer total privacy while dipping in pool. The room was well maintained and always clean. The view was unbeatable even at night. Easy access to beach as well. The property had options to rent bikes or cars with not much of a rate difference from outside places (this according to google search, not enquired in person) and staff where always helpful with suggestions about places to visit or food to try out. The inclusive breakfast had both Thai options as well as regular ones like cereals, bread etc. Good profile taste wise. All in all would suggest the property for a calm and relaxing stay.

Renaissance Koh Samui Resort is truly a place I call Paradise. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning natural beauty that surrounds the resort, combined with the warmth and hospitality of the people who work there. This is a place where every detail is thoughtfully considered, making for an unforgettable experience. The resort itself is breathtakingly beautiful, with lush gardens, crystal-clear waters, and views that truly take your breath away. The atmosphere is serene and peaceful, making it the perfect place to unwind and escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. A special thank you to Jennie and Ben Ben, two outstanding young professionals who went above and beyond to make our stay an amazing experience. Their dedication and attention to detail were evident in every interaction, and they made us feel truly welcomed and cared for. The food at the resort is exceptional, with a wide variety of delicious options that cater to all tastes. Breakfast is plentiful and diverse, featuring everything from fresh fruits and pastries to a Bloody Mary bar—yes, even a Bloody Mary for breakfast! The atmosphere during meals is relaxed and enjoyable, perfect for starting or ending your day. The resort also offers a free shuttle bus service to Lamai and Chaweng twice a day, which is a great convenience. While the return times from Chaweng are a bit early, it’s still a fantastic service that makes exploring the local area easy and stress-free. The activities and events organized by the resort are another highlight. Whether it’s the free happy hour on the beach or the various events throughout the week, there’s always something fun and engaging to do. These thoughtful touches are what make the Renaissance Koh Samui Resort stand out as a truly exceptional place to stay. In summary, Renaissance Koh Samui Resort is absolutely amazing—a place where nature, luxury, and impeccable service come together to create an unforgettable experience.

I love that the hotel is away from the hustle and bustle of the main strip of bars and restaurants of chaweng although you can always take a shuttle van provided by the hotel daily to make a trip down down, which was perfect for what we wanted. and a small walk down to the beach for a Nice walk In the mornings was perfect. the quiet and peaceful surroundings complimented out stay here. the resort is amongst a beautiful landscape of trees that are well maintained o the entire resort we didn't experience any major insect issues. everything in the resort was walking distance, from the hotel buffet to the restaurants and pools. we stayed in villa along the beach front which we'd highly recommend if you were travelling with you partner. overall, it was a perfect and comfortable stay. every staff was incredibly helpful and friendly.

Toilets don’t have a lock and the bath tub is outside.

The hotel was wonderful with excellent amenities. The staff were exceptionally friendly and the rooms beautifully kept. Breakfast options were also very good with options of fresh juices and freshly made pancakes, waffles and eggs. Spa facilities were very good albeit expensive. Would love to stay here again.

Very uncomfortable bed.. perhaps suitable for Asian market but felt like sleeping on the hard board. Apparently it is healthy though not my personal preference.

Safety and comfort are the most obvious factors. Guaranteed improvement in fitness through constant climbing of the stairs. Beautiful pools , especially the pavilion pools.

The bathroom is "open" in the room, that can be a bit bothering for non-couple. The hotel is located on the hillside, something to consider by people with reduced mobility.

The highlight of our stay has been the level of quality of the service provided by the staff. Absolutely amazing! The resort is beautiful and secluded. Few people around the pool, no issue to get sunbeds. Peaceful environment, perfect to disconnect and recharge. Beautiful room.

Nothing. Everything was wonderful.

Everything. Location. Landscape. Villa.

Stayed in February 2024

The hotel is located a bit further from the night markets and main streets so you have to take taxis or rent a motorbike to get there. But it’s not a big deal and we loved the peace and quiet area.

We enjoyed every minute of our stay! The staff are super friendly and helpful, rooms are big and clean with all you need inside and the service is just great. Rich breakfast and great food at the the other restaurants in the hotel. There is a private beautiful beach and the hotel has quite atmosphere and surroundings, away from the busy streets of Koh Samui. Nice gym and the spa is excellent. Can’t wait to go back!

The prices at the hotel restaurant are too high.. and the food is not so good… so I will pass the hotel restaurant

Wow. Such an amazing resort! The pool is a bit small But the staff, the spa experience and the room are all above and beyond

Nothing. Only niggle is that I like my bed very firm and the bed was more soft but to be expected from an American chain. I still had a great sleep.

The outstanding staff, the beautiful beach and pool, breakfast, location and activities. The yoga teacher was amazing!

Nothing, loved it

It’s almost boutique in its size and style and the staff ask your name and remember it, they are all amazing and really helpful but a huge shout out to Woody, Kim and Ken who made our holiday. The pool, gardens and private beach were always impeccable and never crowded. If you want to get away from it all and relax, this is the place…..oh and did I mention how great the food was?

A few things in the room didn’t work (coffee maker, outdoor umbrella) but they were promptly fixed so no real concern there. Also, the only therapist in the spa who could offer mani pedi treatments was on leave during our entire stay there, so having additional therapists may be good.

The hotel is well spaced out and offers a great sea view from the beach facing villas. The staff everywhere were extremely friendly and helpful & took care of all our needs The breakfast buffet was well stocked and the staff brought out new things to try every day. Would definitely recommend the hotel & stay here again.
