    This beach villa was incredible and offered fantastic value for the stunning view.

    It is right off the road, which can be loud... but I could definitely overlook for the views

    This beach villa was incredible and offered fantastic value for the stunning view. The staff were extremely attentive and friendly, going the extra mile by noticing both of our birthdays from our passports and surprising us with birthday cakes on two occasions – a thoughtful, personal gesture. Toward the end of our stay, a lightbulb blew in our room, which wasn’t a big issue for us, but to apologize, they treated us to a floating breakfast/lunch by our pool. It was such a generous touch, especially since we hadn’t complained. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Koh Samui looking for a peaceful, relaxing getaway. The beach was almost entirely ours for the whole week!

    Very special small hotel with only 11 rooms but very comfortable and with a great staff . Excellent service It's a little bit far from the center of coh samoi, but it's not a big problem. Very recommended.

    Nothing.

    Everything. We went for our honeymoon and so glad we booked here rather than a larger resort. We originally booked three nights and ended up staying longer! The beach was so nice, so many lovely beach bars serving amazing food just a short walk away. The staff were so lovely, breakfast made to order each morning. Best place we’ve ever stayed! Thanks so much for an amazing stay.

    Be prepared with mosquitoes repellent. And be aware its just next to the road so if you’re a light sleeper at night the bikes will be quite loud but wasn’t an issue for me.

    It was such a beautiful villa with private pool overlooking the sea and its just a stone throw away to the beaches. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. They even made the room for us since it is our anniversary 🥹 Quite further away from the airport but it was a quite town if you want to unwind and relax. Easy access just opposite there is a convenience store and 7-11. Few walks down there are seafood restaurants. And the resort breakfast was so good!

    WiFi was a little temperamental and slow, but as we wanted to unplug from the world that was perfect!

    Such a peaceful stay, despite being in the beachfront it felt very private. The room was so beautiful - clean, spacious and with a gorgeous view! The staff were wonderful, especially at the front desk. Coffees were amazing! The property was well placed on the beach with excellent cafes, restaurants and massage places within walking distance.

    Nothing to complaint about.

    The place is truly a home away from home. All details have been thought through to ensure you are comfortable. The rooms are extremely clean, comfortable and simplistic yet luxurious. The staff goes way above and beyond to ensure you are looked after, feel at home, and have everything you need. I cannot emphasis enough on how beautiful the pool area and seaviews from the room are. It's a bit away from the city centre, but for me that was a positive. I am not the party every night kind and needed my peace, which this place has plenty of. However it is not at all secluded. There is a 7-11 right across the road, many food joints in walking distance and awesome spas walking distance too. Laundry and scooter rental is available with them and right across the street as well. The staff helps arrange for or help you find anything and everything. I will be back to Koh Samui just to stay here and meet these awesome people again!

    The location is a bit far away from the main tourist areas and the beach is not the nicest, dangerous to walk in without shoes and it’s quite muddy. In addition, even though we paid to have breakfast included, when we asked to get the breakfast in the pool they asked us to pay 1800 THB which is a bit excessive considering the villas are a few steps walk from the breakfast bar.

    The villa was beautiful and all the facilities made it a wonderful 5 star. It’s possible to enjoy beautiful sunsets and breakfast was exceptional. We spent three lovely days.

    At night there is no one to assist so if you have an emergency or you need any assistant, you’re on your own even though it’s extremely clean still spiders are coming inside the room from the balcony door, even if it’s closed there than it was an amazing experience

    Unfortunately we don’t speak Thai and some of the staff have very little English so communication was a little hit and miss especially when ordering the food. It was lovely but a bit of a lottery as to whether you got what you asked for. But never the less it was nice what ever arrived at the table 😂

    Room was very bright and clean.

    Only downside and very sad is the trash that gets to the shore along the beach every morning - sometimes it gets cleaned but not regularly. the second time we had dinner at the restaurant was not as good unfortunately. Also the waiting time was too long (one of us finished starter + main before the second one got anything).

    5 Star feeling ✨ We absolutely loved our stay at white whales! It’s the perfect boutique style getaway for a honeymoon or other special occasions for 2. the suites are small but have everything you need to spend some quality time together - the private pool and the view as well as the direct access to the beach are the absolute highlights! Also the a la carte breakfast was just amazing and ofc the super friendly staff that was always trying to accommodate every wish! We also ate twice in the small restaurant - first time was our absolute highlight with the best food we had on the island.
