A sandy beach with jet skis, people walking, and a mountain in the background.

Chaweng City Center

Chaweng City Centre buzzes with the kind of energy that makes you want to stay up all night and somehow still wake up for sunrise beach yoga. The stunning white sand of Chaweng Beach stretches for days, perfect for alternating between lazy tanning sessions and wild water sports. When the sun sets, the beachfront transforms with fire shows and music while the night market fills with sizzling street food and colourful souvenirs. You'll find everything from fancy seafood restaurants to grab-and-go pad thai stands within walking distance. Getting around is a breeze with songthaews (those red lorry taxis) cruising the main strip, though renting a scooter gives you freedom to explore the quieter corners.

Lamai City Center

Lamai City Centre pulses with energy from its neon-lit bars and aromatic night market. You'll find everything from sizzling street food stalls to beachfront shopping between dips in the turquoise water. Valentine Stone and the famous Hin Ta and Hin Yai Rocks offer unique sightseeing when you need a break from swimming or browsing the market stalls. Beachfront resorts and budget guesthouses inland give you plenty of places to crash after a day of fun. Zip around on rented scooters or catch a songthaew (shared red lorry) along the main beach road to explore the area's hidden corners.

Bophut Hills

Perched high above Koh Samui's coastline, Bophut Hills delivers jaw-dropping panoramic views of the Gulf of Thailand from luxurious private villas and exclusive resorts. The hillside location offers a peaceful retreat from the island's bustling beaches while keeping Fisherman's Village and Chaweng Beach within easy reach. Photographers will go wild for those golden-hour sunset vistas sweeping across the water. Getting around requires wheels – rent a car or brave the steep roads on a scooter if you're feeling adventurous. The dining scene centers around sophisticated resort restaurants with Thai fusion dishes and international cuisine. Most visitors split their time between private infinity pools and day trips to nearby beaches.

Coconut palms frame beaches where the Gulf of Thailand laps at your feet with bathwater warmth. The iconic Big Buddha watches over the island from its perch near Bangrak Beach. Fisherman's Village transforms from sleepy historic quarter to buzzing night market where you can haggle for everything from sarongs to street food. Chaweng Beach offers the full tropical fantasy—white sand, clear water, and beachfront dining. Lamai Beach provides a quieter alternative when Chaweng's energy becomes too much. Venture inland to Paradise Park Farm for panoramic views. Hire a motorbike to discover hidden waterfalls in the rainforest-covered central mountains. Don't miss the sunset from Lipa Noi Beach—it's worth planning your day around.

OZO Chaweng Samui

10/10 Excellent

"I love to come back. Good location, family oriented."

Al's Resort

8/10 Good

"Everything about the hotel was acceptable but I was looking for more for the price. I felt the rooms were lacking in privacy. The rooms big glass doors all open onto a thoroughfare. So you had to close your curtains all the time to avoid people looking in as they walked by. So basically a room with no window. The bathroom was pretty basic and small. The room was fairly spacious. It was safe and quiet at night and the hotel well located in Chaweng beach area. Transport by public transport vans readily available. The pool was not as inviting as the pictures and smallish for a large resort. Access to beach was good and a pretty area. Breakfast was okay to good but could have been better. I would probably look elsewhere next visit. But overall an okay stay."

Chaweng Garden Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Right in the centre of town, restaurants, shops, bars. Enter the resort and you’re immediately a million miles away in sand, garden, peace and quiet. Pool right on the beach front, deck chairs on the beach sand. Some light music noise from next doors beach club however slept with a smile every night. 10 out of 10."

Melati Beach Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"Positives: 1) Location is good, next to high end properties. 2) the layout of the hotel is really nice, with lots of greenery, nice lobby and amenities, and spacious rooms. 3) The staff were very helpful and friendly. Responded well to calls and requests. 4) the breakfast is amazing. Lots of high quality items. They have healthy and gluten free options too. Negatives: 1) Whilst Location is good, it has nothing within walkable distance. Others were closer to the shopping areas. You can hear flights over the resort. 2) We were supposed to get 2 single beds for our boys, but got one sofa bed for 2, which wasn't a comfortable one. 3) the AC in the living room wasn't cooling. We had the technicians visiting twice but didn't really fix the issue. 4) the swimming beach is poorly maintained. We hit rocks and sea plants everywhere. No guests could swim. 5) the gym is average. Not a 5* resort standard."

Silavadee Pool Spa Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is beautiful. The staff is awesome. The facilities and location are great. I would highly recommend it. The one thing to think about is getting off the property for lunch and dinner. The food available in the restaurants for lunch and for dinner, while tasty, is much higher in price without being better than you can get from any number of restaurants within 30 minutes. It was good, but I would get off campus for more meals if I come back. Everything else was completely top not."

Sheraton Samui Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful 12-day stay at this hotel with my two daughters. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, every member of the staff was incredibly kind, friendly, and always willing to help with anything we needed. They truly made us feel welcome and took great care of us throughout our stay. The hotel has a lovely atmosphere, and thanks to the amazing staff, we created many beautiful family memories here. The only small thing I missed was a regular handheld shower. The bathtub only had a faucet, and the shower cabin had only a rainfall showerhead. Having a handheld shower would have made things much easier, especially when traveling with children. Apart from that, everything was excellent, and we would be happy to stay here again. Thank you to the entire team for your wonderful hospitality!"

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Koh Samui

Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Koh Samui is during May, October, and November, when hotel rates are typically lower. For a budget-friendly trip that allows for a thorough exploration of the island's significant landmarks and cultural attractions, a stay of at least 4 to 5 days is recommended. During this time, visitors can enjoy relaxing days on the beach, indulge in spa treatments, experience family-friendly activities, and savour delightful dining options, all while taking in the stunning scenery that Koh Samui has to offer. With the right planning, prices might drop, making it a great value for money destination.
Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: Hotels.com may offer Koh Samui hotel deals to travellers who are prepared to act quickly. By visiting the DealsOpens in a new window section, you could find discounted rates on hotels near your travel date, while the Last-Minute Deals option may reveal special promotions as your departure nears. Enable email alerts or push notifications to stay informed about flash sales, and use the Smart Shopping tool via the app to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you’re well-equipped to seize any opportunity for a last-minute escape.
Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate due to factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so having some flexibility with your travel dates could help you find a better deal for your stay in a Koh Samui hotel. For those in search of distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and may occasionally offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we’ll inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price leans towards the higher end, we’ll suggest alternative dates that could be more affordable, assisting you in your search for a great value.
Consider your location: Hotels situated near the city centre generally tend to be more expensive, but thanks to Koh Samui's exceptional public transport links, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel a bit further afield that remains well connected.
