Koh Samui Hotels with Private Pools

"Enjoyed staying at the hotel. It's an old quiet hotel, but the room is cleaned and very nice comfy bed. Impressed with all hotel staffs hospitality & services. The foods & beverages at hotel's restaurant by the beach is not expensive. Price is similar to what you pay at local small restaurant along the street of Koh Samui (Unlike the other hotels and restaurants on Koh Samui. They usually add taxes and service charge to the receipt)"

"Baan Hin Sai Resort & Spa — Samui, Thailand This hotel is all about nature, tranquility, and the feeling of living right inside a jungle. The hotel grounds are incredibly well integrated into the surrounding landscape: lush greenery, massive rocks, and varying elevations – everything looks completely natural, without the impression that nature was 'forced' to accommodate construction. During our stay, we saw monitor lizards on the property twice. They scurry away and hide immediately, but the very fact of having such neighbors is more of a positive, confirming that the place is alive and authentic. It's really cool that the hotel exists in harmony with the natural environment, rather than instead of it. Upon check-in, we were offered drinks (though quite sweet), and they thoroughly answered all our questions. Throughout our stay, they were always available and assisted with any issues that came up. Guests are driven around the property by Thai staff in two electric buggies, which is convenient given the hotel's terrain and size. Every evening, musicians play and sing at the bar near the reception. The atmosphere is very lively and warm: you can dance, sing karaoke, and they even offer complimentary alcoholic cocktails, which is a pleasant and unexpected touch. Mornings here are a special delight. There's a stunning view of the sunrise, the sea breaking against the coastal rocks, and lots of sea foam. It's incredibly beautiful and meditative. The sea is clean. Breakfasts are buffet-style, but without a 'wow' factor. Our rating for the food is 6 out of 10: neither the presentation, approach, taste, nor variety impressed us. We didn't have lunch, dinner, or the festive menu, so we're only rating the breakfasts. The staff are welcoming, attentive, and always ready to help. This is one of the hotel's strong advantages. We used the pool with views of the sea and rocks – the pool was clean, and we never saw anyone else in it during our entire stay, which added to the sense of seclusion and privacy. Ratings: Grounds: 8 / 10 Room: 7 / 10 Food (breakfasts): 6 / 10 PS for the hotel: It would be great to create a hub area near the reception – a place where guests could spend time during the day and evening. A table tennis table, billiards, and a small area with a pull-up bar and parallel bars would fit in perfectly."

"Nice resort but can do with some reservations. Amenities can be improved too as what is offered is below its own concept standards. Only 2 bath towels provided, adding hand or face towels would be good. No pool towels in the plunge pool room, having it would be nice. Umbrella is damaged so can’t use it properly, room maid should check these things. Only 2 pillows provided, having 4 pillows would be nice so each person can have 2 pillows for comfort sleeping. Rooms with Plunge pool should have its own on/off switch for guests to operate instead of having to call reception to turn it on every time we need to use it. The water flow in the bathroom shower and wash basin is not consistently flowing with pressure, it low and high water pressure."

"Отель тихий, уютный, очень комфортный… завтраки отличные, разнообразные , ресторан расположен с видом на море, что придает особое очарование) сервис - отличный , ежедневная смена полотенец и пр. Мы брали домик люкс, с кухней.. кухня полностью оборудована всем необходимым , есть кофеварка, микроволновка , плита , все в рабочем состоянии 😊 …персонал приветливый и внимательный …свой пляж у отеля, но некупабельный, ездили на Ламаи , 1 мин на машине…😀 обязательно вернемся сюда😍"

"The room was fantastic — big, clean, with a good interior and great materials. However, the bathroom does not separate the wet and dry zones. There is a big bathtub attached to the toilet. You have to shower in the bathtub and everything gets wet The hotel seems to be short-staffed, which affects the overall service quality. The staff seemed too tired, which is why they were not very friendly. there was a lack of coordination between the breakfast area and the front desk staff. The parking area was quite limited and narrow Even though I requested special needs through the Trip App. I did not receive them."

"Nice and clean, comfy bungalows with modern styling bathroom with bathtub, sink and toilet with peekaboo windows from room, and outdoor shower with rack for hanging wet towels and swimming wear. Nice terrace with table and chairs to sit outside and enjoy fresh morning air, and lovely evenings. The staff is very friendly and the ladies in the restaurant were very gracious. The 3 tiered pools were lovely with gorgeous view.  The middle one needed some cleaning of leaves that blew down from the wind. The hot water filled only half the tub, but after waiting 15min the water heater was able to fill up the rest of the tub, which was enjoyable and worth the extra effort. Good value and comfortable."

"we came for 3 days and extended to 21 days, my daughter said best holiday she ever had and we never left the hotel. super super clean everywhere (the rooms/grounds/pools/everywhere) ALL staff from reception to the cleaners always super nice always pleasant to see and say hello Food was awesome, tried all seafood, all snacks, all western, all thai. ALL brilliant. 2 great pools and the beach which is a lovely sandy beach right there just meters away from room. Probably the nicest holiday had ever (maybe next time we leave the hotel but honestly it had everything needed).. cant wait to go back again"

"Location - 10/10. Right on the beach, and also right in the middle of all the action at the entrance gate. The rooms - 8.5/10, are nice and spacious. A little dated. Nice and clean, but we had multiple pool/spa filters next to our room which were quite noisy. Service - 8/10. The staff are friendly and helpful, but I think a little training is required to be proactive rather than reactive. For example, at breakfast at various times - no plates, no cutlery, nowhere to sit, no milk.....Also, at the gym and pool no towels ”just wait 20 minutes”, but never came. Ambience - 4.5/10 is probably the weakness. There was multiple sites around the resort that looked like a rubbish tip. Overall, the experience was pretty good, but could be improved - 8/10."

"I booked a deluxe room with sea view. The room was on the ground floor with a view to the pool. Technically, you could see at the very end of the long pool, between the heads of the people swimming, the blue of the sea. It is very disappointing to book a sea view room and get this, it is not the room in the pictures. Lightning was awful, very bright. You could have of all light on or none of them."

"Upgraded to beachfront villa which was amazing! Very warm hospitality & excellent Thai service, as always. Super love the Anodas spa svc. Lovely couple set up! Will return to resort in future :)"
