Hotels on first line in Ban Lamai

The rooms are beautiful and cleaned daily, there is always plenty of water topped up in the rooms and little touches that make the stay enjoyable. It is often busy around the pool if it is sunny so get there early

There is possibility to have dinner on the beach and do water sports. In the village of Lamai there are markets and area restaurants and bars. On a bike, you have all the places of the Island a stone's throw away

Myself and my partner have just had a wonderful stay at the Outrigger hotel in Ko Samui. From the airport pickup to our last day - everything was perfect

There are friendly security staff on hand 24 hours to ensure you cross safely and it’s worth it! We really liked the beach resort. Thank you Outrigger, cannot fault the wonderful service

The added bonus was having the security guards help cross the road safely to access the restaurant and beach

We were worried before our stay about the road between the hotel and beach resort but it really is no issue

The beach itself is fantastic. We were very pleased to see security on the beach who also helped set up umbrellas and arrange sun loungers

Exceptional and friendly service - secluded and quiet feel in the room but lively outside Private Pool was awesome

The cocktails at the bar during the day were disappointing (we tried a Piña Colada once and weren't tempted to order another). A major highlight is the excellent direct beach access with sun loungers

The hotel doesn't quite live up to a 5-star rating. However, it does have pleasant grounds, two pools, and a restaurant

It’s one of the best hotels in samui (lamai beach) Recommend to all couple

Among the obvious drawbacks, the soundproofing in the rooms is extremely poor. We ended up with noisy neighbors who were also smoking ******** on their balcony (though it's legalized in Thailand)

I found that the QR code on the room's TV couldn't successfully add the front desk on WhatsApp. This same male staff member answered the phone when I called, saying we could resolve the issue the next morning

One of the highlights of my stay was dining at The Sands restaurant. The ambiance, service, and food were all amazing, making it a dining experience I would highly recommend to anyone visiting the resort

Honestly, everything was perfect, and most of the staff were very friendly and attentive. Our butler, Tak, was also incredibly thoughtful

Spent part of our honeymoon here! Beautiful beach and excellent service! Our room had a sweet pool and hot tub

The resort has absolutely everything you could need, and the attention to detail is unmatched. Our private pool, the breathtaking ocean views, and the overall peacefulness made it feel like our own little paradise

From the fun, exciting (this little golf cart is climbing the whole mountain to your luxury villa) buggy rides to the stunning private beach and our luxurious villa, every moment felt top tier

We ate all three meals at the hotel, and the prices were reasonable, plus the restaurant had a beautiful view. In the afternoon, there was also free afternoon tea by the public pool

The view was absolutely stunning! We stayed in ocean view pool villa #28, and the mini-bar was generously stocked with complimentary drinks and snacks

This hotel choice was truly excellent! I booked two nights, one in a sea-view room and the other in a sea-view villa 🏠

I have to say, the rooms were actually better in person than in the hotel's promotional photos, which was a pleasant surprise! 👍🏼 The breakfast was good too, mostly à la carte, but the real highlight was the incredible view, which truly impressed me ✌️

It is clear that guest comfort is their absolute priority. Verdict Silavadee Pool Spa Resort is a flawless gem. It offers phenomenal service, incredible food, and a level of luxury that is hard to find elsewhere

I arrived expecting high standards, luxury, and beautiful views, but the reality far exceeded even my highest expectations. This property doesn’t just compete with top global brands; in many ways, it surpasses them

I came to Thailand for a friend's wedding and took the opportunity to do some short-term traveling. The hotel was very comfortable, with an infinity pool that seamlessly blended with the sea, which was truly breathtaking

Although there were a lot of people at breakfast, their seating arrangement wasn't great, and they didn't allow guests to dine in bathrobes (which I understand, as I had just come from the pool)

Swimming pools are great, breakfast as well. The beach is beautiful but swimming there is not possible as it’s very shallow. Service was not consistent, sometimes great, sometimes less

My husband absolutely loves this hotel! The beach access is super convenient, and the welcoming drink was a nice touch. All the staff are really friendly and the breakfast is fantastic – you can even order off-menu items

I recommend the sea-view rooms; sitting by the window, enjoying the sea breeze, and looking out at the ocean was incredibly relaxing. 5 point deduction is for the breakfast restaurant staff

They offer free yoga classes in the morning. The beach is a bit rocky, making it difficult to swim. I recommend the dinner restaurant, the view is absolutely stunning!

Bungalows right on the beach. Great place to relax. Infinity pool, possibility to jet ski nearby. On the other side, lots of restaurants, bars and Thai massage parlors. And the usual night market

Pros: Very good location: close to beach, several pools, outdoor showers, close to restaurants and shops, but far enough away for it not to be noisy (depending on room type, though)

A nice hotel in the heart of Lmi Beach, Koh Samui. We booked a standard room as it was a cheaper option but we found it very comfortable with air condition and a balcony

We had coffee making facilitiy in our room and a safe deposit box. All in all a really good choice. We used the fitness room which was ok and the swimming pool is stunning facing the beach

Great and cheap place. Very close to the sea. Good Wi-Fi. Every home can live for two people. In every room on request, a kettle. Cheap hot water in the evening Alla campaign, probably because it is heated by the sun.

We loved it and my boyfriend proposed to me on Lamai beach. We got married a year later and now 2 kids down and 24 years later we are still as happy. At that time there was Papa ( the owner) and a great PadThai

Fantastic staff. Beautiful and clean villas and the whole property in general . There is no private beach for the property or beach at all and the location is bit cut off from the happening side of the island.

The pool villa where I stayed was very comfortable and peaceful. I am truly satisfied and will definitely return again

The staff were attentive, the villa was stunning and beautifully furnished — we loved the tropical style, the colors, and all the thoughtful details such as the coffee machine, the accessories you can use for photos, and the large bathtub

If you have a small number of guests the night before breakfast, it would be a good idea to ask guests to fill out a questionnaire about what they'll be eating for breakfast (as other hotels do) so as not to wait and waste precious time

Whenever I needed anything, it was never a problem — on the contrary, everything was taken care of immediately. Regarding the food, we truly enjoyed both the dinner and the breakfast. Everything was beautifully clean

The resort is unique and private — exactly what I was looking for to escape from the busy side of Samui. The staff are friendly and the service is excellent

The rooms are clean and spacious! Everything you need. We didn‘t used the pool and went to the beach, which is 5 min walk. I appreciated the Location within Lamai Beach

This is a good hotel with a very convenient location for shops and restaurants. The beach itself is just okay, but that's pretty much the case for all of Lamai Beach, nothing new there

However, we visited during the low season, and the hotel was only 15-20% occupied, so there was plenty for everyone

Everything perfect and close to the beach especially according to the price which is not very high

They don't have their own sun loungers, and it's a 3-minute walk to the beach

The hotel is nice, very lovely swimming pool. Had a good stay there.

The coffee were great!! My favorite thing each morning. The room wasn't bad, spacious & lovely sea room view. We ordered drinks at the bar, whilst at the pool, and they were terribly slow with our order

Not crowded & we pretty much had the pool to ourselves all the time. The breakfast was ok, perhaps more options for vegetarians, maybe have some cheese, but overall not too bad

Great view of the beach and pool from my balcony. It was a bargain to have got this place for the amount of money paid. The breakfast provided was to a quality standard 🤌. The view from the breakfast lounge is so unreal

An ok hotel, but a bit tired. Lamai beach is lovely and there are plenty of bars and restaurants in the town center.

The location was perfect! We especially loved the beach, as it felt secluded and private. The pool area was nice, a little dated in terms of outdoor furniture, however the pool was great

The best part is the direct access to the beach through the pool area—super practical and really enjoyable. Perfect place to relax and feel welcome

The hotel is split into 3 levels, as you walk in you go into reception, then down a flight of steps to the resteraunt abs then down a further set to the pool area

Benz on reception is always smiling and very helpful. Our room was one of the villas, great sized clean room, only wished the towels was changed daily, very small thing to say for such a great friendly hotel

A little out of the main area of Lamai, but still good accommodation, the staff are all very welcoming and friendly, special mention to the pool bar staff, who were wonderful to us during our stay, making sure we were always had cold drinks on hand

Their is also a gym and a beach side massage area, which is very good. The food is not of the best quality for a 4 star hotel, but if you don't mind quick poolside snacks then this is fine

The street next to the hotel is very loud, breakfast is great, Lunch not very good. Gym is small, pool only available between 7 and 7. Rest is great. AC in good condition, rooms are clean, bed and bathroom are great

The hotel is located 2km south of Lamai beach, in quite a secluded bay

However, a short 15-minute walk takes you directly to Lamai Beach, where you'll find plenty of beach restaurants and even a night market that I highly recommend exploring

Koh Samui has a lot of beautiful public beaches which are not crowded, it's not worth over-paying for an average room to get access to a beach

This hotel is well-located and offers a very good, high-quality breakfast. There's a wide selection on the menu, even though it's not an all-you-can-eat buffet

It shows the place I imagine is being refurbished slowly but remains a very stylish resort, our pavilion pool room was out of this world and was a real luxury for us

Nice set up of the room ( air condition perhaps can be less noisy ) The resort of Small houses are build front the sea and the same time having view of palm and bambook forest front our veranda

The same goes for pool towels that were outworn, stained, and in some cases had holes. Breakfast selection felt underwhelming and limited for a 5-star hotel, although the gluten-free bread was excellent

The hotel is 3 stars, the breakfasts are very modest. The location is excellent, there are shops and restaurants nearby. The pool is small, overlooking the sea. Green area.

Great location on the beach, staff very friendly and helpful! Helped us to hire a moped so no deposit or passport needed. Did have to request clean sheets as ours was stained but these were replaced straight away

The staff were friendly and helpful, the rooms were clean, the furniture wasn't new but it was okay, the breakfast was very good, the hotel's architecture was very nice, the pool was beautiful, and its location was just a second from Lamai Beach and close to all the central cafes

The food and drinks at the restaurant and pool were also very good. The rooms are set in a garden area with lots of birds and frogs. Our room was lovely, large and we could hear the waves from the ocean

We will definitely stay at The Hive the next time we are in Koh Samui, which I hope is soon. We will also recommend to anyone we know who is going to Lamai Beach in Koh Samui

We just spent a day here enjoying the swimmimg pool and the food. This is the first time since we arrived in Samui we didn't feel like a walking bag of cash

Beautiful quiet and friendly family run resort just five mins from Chaweng beach

We stayed at this hotel for six days and really enjoyed it. The breakfasts were good, and the food in the cafe was also decent. The room was cleaned regularly

We spent unforgettable days at Baan Sawan Samui Resort and were absolutely delighted! The hotel is surrounded by greenery, the pools are beautiful, and it's very photogenic! The rooms are quiet and peaceful

The bed is very comfortable – we slept like babies. The staff is always smiling and ready to help with any questions. What could be improved: Bathroom – after a shower, water accumulates on the floor a little

It would be great if they added a small mop to quickly remove water. Towels – in high humidity, they dry slowly. Changing them every two days would make our stay even more comfortable

The staff was very friendly and welcoming, with special thanks to the receptionists. The hotel grounds are small, but very well-maintained and surrounded by greenery

A bit pricier than the kind of places I normally stay, but totally worth it. Close to the beach and the night market but secluded and quite quiet, it's the perfect place to stay

This is a good hotel with three buildings and its own cozy courtyard. It has a nice, small pool, and there's also a large parking lot for motorbikes and cars

The hotel is about a kilometer from Lamai Beach. Right outside, you'll find Lamai Market, a pharmacy, restaurants, and massage places – it's incredibly convenient

Plenty of cafes and shops are within walking distance, and it's not far from the sea. Breakfast isn't included, but it's not really needed

They bring you new water everyday and the swimming pool is a great place to cool off

Nice budget friendly stay, clean and no insect Smell of wood Beach and 711 nearby

If you read my review you must book the front beach right now because of it fantastic. you will surprise with ceiling shower that is incredible. The front beach is suitable to couple and honeymoon

We stayed here for 7 days at the end of January 2026. We received an upgrade to a beach bungalow with a direct view of the beach

There are also plenty of nearby dining choices both on the beach and along the main road. The location is at the far end of Lamai Beach, so it's not central. We found it to be a good spot

What more could you ask for? The bungalow was fantastic and fully equipped, even featuring a rooftop terrace. However, we barely used the rooftop, as the balcony was more than sufficient

We only went to the terrace on Thursday evening to watch the weekly fireworks show from there. When you first turn off the main road, it can be a bit startling as the access road looks a bit run-down

But the resort itself is very clean. The dining options seemed good; we only booked accommodation and had breakfast once. There was a huge selection, enough to satisfy anyone

I was disappointed because one of the main reasons we booked was the pool by the ocean however, when we arrived, the pool was green. The breakfast was OK and the staff were really nice

The location on the island is convenient, but having a scooter is really helpful for getting from the hotel to nearby places (beach, restaurants, activities)

We found it a good warm-up, even though it's not very far from the restaurant to reception (the furthest distance). The buggy runs on request and continuously, and it's always done with a friendly smile

Honestly, everyone working here is friendly and helpful. We felt very welcome! Our room was lovely in terms of size and space. The bathroom is a bit old-fashioned but functional

The hotel arranges this perfectly! You don't even have to pick up the scooter yourself. The walk across the grounds is indeed only manageable for those who are physically fit

The accommodation is beautiful, clean, and has a great view. The staff are lovely.

Try beach bungalows, very good value for money, sunrise seaview from your bed is priceless 🙂. Reasonably quiet location yet only 5min walking distance to main street in Lamai

basic but very nice. great beach. typical tourist crap food nearby main street.

The hotel is in an amazing location just walk across the road to the beach and restaurants. The grounds are nice and pool area is great

Great clean bungalows, right on a beautiful the beach with a great sunrise view. Set behind the walking street of lamai but not noisy. Loads of choices of bar, restaurants, smoking shop, shopping & everything else.

The location was right on the beach. ( i chose that option ) So I could hear the sound of the waves throughout the day and night. I just wish the restaurant and reception were open till a little later than they do

One of the best locations at Lamai. It's on the beach with the shopping/market area a short walk away. The rooms are a bit old but clean and simple. Good balcony to just sit and relax

Beautiful resort with scenic views and a private beach. Lamai beach is calmer and cleaner beach as compared to chaweng beach. Staff here is extremely helpful and caring, they make sure you have a pleasant stay

Nicely appointed and well laid out resort right on Lamai Beach. Plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance, and they mix great drinks at the resort as well as have a nice restaurant

We had the best time at Thai House Beach Resort, absolutely everything was amazing The staff couldn’t be more helpful, the room was great the beach and pool lovely and the location perfect We will be back as one of the best hotels we have stayed in Thailand

The hotel has a private beach, a swimming pool, the location is great, there are a lot of restaurants and massage places near the restaurant. Lamai night market also is a walking distance

Perfect hotel if you want to be quiet and rest. Very clean and spacious rooms. (I recommend a villa) pool and beach with many sun loungers. And very good massages inside the hotel

The restaurant by the beach is great, we enjoyed the breakfast by the sea, the prices at the restaurant are a bit pricey but having a coconut juice by the beach is worth it

This was my first time on Koh Samui, and my first stay at this hotel was from December 25th-31st, 2025. The view was magnificent, there was a pool, and massages on site were incredibly affordable

A major plus for this side of the beach is that the sun rises directly opposite the hotel, so nothing obstructs it all day long

This time, I had a room with two balconies and sun loungers, and a bathroom with a sea view – simply stunning

The sea was clean, the staff were superb, and Wi-Fi was available throughout the property

The hotel is on the 1st line, the sea is a minute away. There is a cafe, money exchange, travel agencies, laundry, bike rental, massage parlor nearby

I returned here from January 4th-6th, 2026, and was even more impressed, having experienced other areas and hotels in just a few days before deciding to come back

Lamai Beach Resort – Relaxing Beachfront Stay we had a very pleasant stay at Lamai Beach Resort. The location is excellent, right on Lamai Beach, with beautiful sea views and easy access to the beach

A nice hotel with spacious grounds and a beautiful, warm pool. The rooms are clean and spacious. The location is great, close to the sea and a promenade with food and shops

Excellent hotel, the service people are so nice and professional, the swimming pool is super good. It's close to the beach, and has many restaurants close

The ocean view from the balcony on the third floor is amazing! Swimming along the nearby beach and even swimming in the hotel pool is fantastic

Great hotel! But make sure you get a room with a sea view! The view from the balcony is stunning. Everything is new and clean, the air conditioning is good, the mattress is comfortable, and the bed linens are excellent

The room was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The bed was comfortable, and the room had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. we especially enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and the sound of the sea
