Bophut Hills Vacations from $974

Pros: friendly and helpful staff, on the whole Very clean environment Excellent breakfast buffet Very comfortable bed Reliable WiFi Good security; felt safe Convenient location Cons: Rooms are waaay too small (smallest hotel room I've ever stayed in outside of England) No proper outside room space/tiny balcony Not enough beach loungers Noisy hotel. Noisy restaurant with limited expensive dinner options (Very much a family hotel- not suitable for solo travellers)

This place is a little slice of heaven on the Koh Samui Beach. The bungalows are excellent with very comfortable beds.The bathrooms are unique, stylish, and all amenities. The on property restaurant serves amazing foods of both Asian and western influence with an amazing breakfast. Then there is the spa that has amazing massage therapists. I'd swear thwy have magical hands! Nataya is the absolute best! There is a slight language barrier, but Google Translate is your friend. Overall amazing and we already have plans to return next year!

If you are looking for a private and quiet stay away, this is definitely a great choice. As the main restaurant was closed for renovations, we were limited to the two restaurants. The menu catered to both western and thai offerings, but one may feel that there was not much variety if one was planning to have all meals within the resort (eg. breakfast menu was exactly the same for all days we were there). Room was very comfortable and clean. The tub in the room offered some alternative activity on a slightly rainy day when the pool is not available. Small touches were appreciated - turn down services included local snacks which we got to try, celebratory gestures to celebrate anniversary and a birthday (eg. cake & sparkling wine) were made available complimentary. As the area is a little remote, I'm glad that the resort provided complimentary shuttle services to both Chaweng and Lamai. Also appreciated the hotel app which made communication with various concierge and hotel services very easy. Responses were super prompt. I recommend the massages at the spa - suggest to book in advance to secure a slot.

Absolutely gorgeous and a great stay. Pros: Newer, reserved clean beach, pool in room, spacious, quiet, safety, helpful staff Cons: Mainland access, very slow service at beach cafe (except Tony Da, he was awesome), housekeeping oversights We were upgraded upon arrival from ocean view villa to the horizon view and that’s got to be the best villa. Incredibly gorgeous view, very private shielded, stairs down to private sofa at dock, pretty sunlight near dusk. The pool is shallow (3.5 ft) and stayed perfectly clean. The room is large with great air conditioning and the big bed was very comfortable. We requested 2 beds far in advance of our stay and only upon arrival learned that 1 would be a metal cot. Unfortunately the metal cot was painful and smelled mildewy. We asked housekeeping to make up the sofa instead, but those sheets had a stain of something dark and sticky. The bathroom is very spacious with 2 closets and 2 sink spaces on either side. The shower was large but needed to be cleaned more thoroughly around the bottom edges as there was dark buildup . Please be aware that shower water gets unsafely hot. The island is hilly but they offer buggy rides (very easy to ask). Daytime there’s a small 4 person boat for the 2-3 min journey from the mainland, it can be dirty and on our last day our luggage got soaked. At night there’s a tall truck that’s much easier. There’s a busy beach club across the water (semi-walkable through low water). Breakfast is PHENOMENAL!!

The place maybe needs some renovations . It’s a bit old .
