Hoteles en Mae Nam, Ko Samui

Well chose this hotel for my wife’s 50th Our first trip to Thailand and if the funds were ever again available wouldn’t hesitate to return to this wonderful country, just one thing about Thailand don’t go if you think it will be cheap it isn’t [if you value your stomach] budget “going out prices uk” and you wont be disappointed and when the odd bargain comes along that’s a nice surprise. That said the real value is in the cost of the hotel rooms 4 star luxury at less than the cost of a travel lodge. Ok The Samui Palm beach resort, got a great price online after much searching and booked a room in the Royal Wing, on arrival the place was pretty empty [mid Feb is early season] so lucky us they put us in a beach bungalow one back from the ones that line the beach front [these were well out of our price range] and very near the main pool, we couldn’t believe our luck, the bungalow [they call them villas] was very large, very high ceilings, four poster bed with drapes, room safe, wet shower room, sunken bath, table and chairs inside and out and a sort of private garden area with coconut trees over, yes one of the tiles was chipped and the paintwork could do with re glossing but that would be being very picky considering what we paid. Later we checked out the rooms in the royal wing this complex appears very new and has the longest swimming pool on the island [but certainly not the widest] the rooms were very nice and finished to a high standard some had private plunge pools, but they were a bit dark and some way from the beach. The beach was very nice private and quiet and BO PHUT is very quiet, out of the complex there was a 7\11 within walking distance and a two acceptable restaurants if you want a change from the hotel which has several restaurants although only two were open [like I said the place was not that full] Prices…… Starter soup or satay 120 batt [double it for pounds thus £2. Well the brochure shows sunbeds in pairs along a grass bank overlooking the ocean these are reserved for the beach front villas only,[your told to keepout] this is not made clear and is a bit misleading. That said the provision for other guests is ok even if beach sun beds are a bit in short supply.

El hotel es espectacular, el personal es de lo mejorcito que he visto en ningun sitio.

las habitaciones espectaculares y el servicio de las mismas igual el no poder ir todos los años

personal muy amable,nos alojaron en una ha.bitacion superior y era una pasada,excelente relacion calidad precio No puedes ir a la playa andando,el hotel dispone de transfer gratuito pero debes ceñirte a sus horarios.

Un hotel estupendo. La gente estupenda y las instalaciones muy buenas. Lo peor de todo es la situación, pero tampoco fue nada crítico en nuestro caso.

definitely a very good quality of life for the money paid- we were looking for the 5* comfort for not more than 100 EUR per day. this hotel didn't have a rating yet- very new and not so many visitors yet, but am sure that with time it will get good reviews. room is very fresh, specious. pool and beach area are just great. everything is very clean and as the hotel is relatively small you do not feel that there are other people around. initially staying for 4 days we decided to prolong it for 10 days even though i believe it is a great place, not everything was perfect which also can explain the reasonable price for the rooms- stuff speaking terrible English " yes-yes" level, for breakfast you get a menu with 3 dishes- and this is the choice for the whole stay- my husband (for whom food is very important) was just angry- same scrambled eggs for the 10 days was rather a nightmare, moreover after 2 days asking the waiter to add beans to the scrambled eggs (both were in the menu), and still not getting them, we decided that probably it is not worth trying and ate in the other places. Another thing -there not enough parasols near the swimming pool so basically if you are not the early bird then will enjoy the sun for the whole day
