Le Murraya Resort, Chaweng

Le Murraya Resort, Chaweng

One of my dive students was staying over Christmas 2009 in this resort and had a very postive experience during his stay.

The resort is not located at Chaweng beach, which is just about a 5 minute walk away but it is located directly opposite the Laem Din market, so very centrally in Chaweng. Despite being next to a hustling and bustling road connecting Chaweng beach road to the ring road, he stated that you only hear the street noise once you're directly on to the road. Pending on where your room is located though, you may have some noise levels from one of the Muay Thai boxing stadiums that is located next to the hotel.

Every room in the hotel offers guests non smoking rooms, air conditioning, internet access, television, bathtub. Shops, executive floor, elevator, restaurant, car park are some of the extra comforts you'll find at this Samui hotel. Guests may take advantage of sporting or leisure activities such as gym/fitness facilities, pool outdoor at this hotel. With its commitment to service and focus on hospitality, you'll enjoy your stay at Le Murraya Resort at reasonable rates.

Sandy Resort, Bophud

Sandy Resort, Bophud

This charming, low cost resort on Bophud Beach enjoys access to a secluded beach area and is smack in-between World Resort on one side and Zazen Boutique Resort on the other side. The price difference in the rooms sets all three resorts apart with Sandy Resort being the budget option. I had a few of my IDC candidates stay here, a PADI dive instructor course that I conduct in World Resort next door and they where happy with the quality of the rooms and the money saved.

The Sandy Resort is located right on a quiet stretch of Bophud Beach, a short distance from the Fisherman’s Village, where you will find a host of reasonably priced Thai and seafood restaurants and bars to choose from. The beach in front of the resort is ideal for swimming and extremely child-friendly, as it is quite shallow and the currents are not too strong. The resort offers modest but clean and comfortable bungalows, with a choice of air-conditioning or ceiling fan to suit all types of budget. The beach-facing swimming pool is immaculate and wouldn’t look out of place in a more upmarket place.

A good budget resort with a nice and quiet location in the North of the island and family friendly.
