List of recommended Samui hotels

This is a growing list of recommended Samui hotels.

Having lived on Koh Samui since the end of 1999, I feel that I can give an honest and true report on many hotels on Koh Samui. Not only just a recommendation but also a reason why I like or recommend a specific resort or hotel, like those many times when I get asked about accommodation on Samui.

For booking purposes, I use and recommend the following sites;

Hotels Combined since they give you the best deals from various search engines combined and without a big effort you get the best deal(s) available on either Koh Samui or Thailand.

Agoda, since they have good rates, a wide choice and have easy to use websites . They also have an excellent reward program.

More booking sites may be added in due time.


This list, that will keep growing over time, are the hotels that I recommend, click on each link for more information and booking links. Each hotel link will have various links for reservations and rates at the bottom of each review so you can compare prices;

Underway

Hello, it seems we're underway with this new blog.

I just posted the first review of a hotel in Chaweng, the Centara Grand Beach. It's my first review and a few things in the way I post may change over time, so bear with me for the time being.

The idea behind this blog is to give you recommendations for hotels on Samui with personal reasons why I like or recommend these hotels.

Having lived here on Koh Samui since 1999, I feel that I can truelly recommend hotels and resorts on Samui, due to my field of work, the dive industry which brought me to many hotels on the island and plenty of family, friends and clients who stayed at hotels and resorts scattered around the island, who gave good feedback.

For bookings, I found these two website, Agoda and R24, who both have very good rates and support easy to navigate websites.

More online booking providers may follow soon, so stay tuned and I hope that you enjoy information provided. Any feedback is more than welcome.
