The staff are all very friendly and helpful. There’s conscience stores right around the corner. And nice restaurants such as the “Lucky elephant” right across the street. And the beach is a six minute walk away. We had an amazing stay here!

Great place!

Friendly Staff. They were very helpful. We stayed on the 2nd floor and it had it's own balcony which gave us a chance to have some nice chat with the guests on the next room. It also had s drying rack for swimsuits. You have to walk a little to go to the beach. Maybe around 200m or bit more. We didn't find out too inconvenient though. We had a great time!

Hier im Buathong wird man herzlich empfangen. Der Aufenthalt war sehr gut. Das geräumige Zimmer sehr sauber. Gute Betten. Jeden Tag Zimmerreinigung. Ich kann es jedem empfehlen. Es sind zwar ein paar Schritte mehr zum Beach aber es lohnt sich hier zu sein.

Very good for the price

We came to stay for one night and ended up booking for 4, we had the villa room, which was a mini suite with a bedroom. The staff is super friendly and helpful, and it’s only a 2 min walk to the beach, 7-11-family Mart, and restaurants.The room was very clean and the furniture was nice, the only thing we can complain about is that the mattresses are extremely hard, however mattresses are hard just about anywhere you go in Thailand, especially at this price.

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort

Poor hotel, worse location. Don't go to Lamai.

A long walk to Lamai town. Noisy, next to the main road. Noisy fridge. Smelly, damp bathroom with no fan, and the shower didn't drain and became a 5cm deep pool. Poor even for Thailand. I can't believe there were good reviews. Lamai itself is disgusting. Worst tourist trap I've seen in Thailand. Massage, girl bars, tattoos, and outrageously overpriced food, not to mention everywhere serves 'European food'. There is nothing authentic or idyllic about Lamai. Also the beach was really ordinary. Chaweng didn't seem better. I left Samui first thing in the morning for Phangan. Very disappointed.

Le petit resort est situe a cote de la route princaple, avec beaucoups de commerces et de restaurants a proximite, et la plage n'est qu'a 2mn a pied. La chambre est assez spacieuse et confortable, bien que le decor ne soit pas genial.

Enkelt och rent

Stora och rena hotellrum, trevlig ägare av hotellet som gav bra service. Budgethotell bakom en stor resort som man går igenom för att komma till stranden (2min). Bra värde för pengarna för de som inte spenderar tid på hotellrummet.

Lovely stay

My boyfriend and I booked here as our first hotel in Lamai, Koh Samiu. This place is lovely! The rooms are very clean and big. This hotel is deffinately a 4 start place! The owners are absolutely lovely. It's a 2 minute walk to the beach and a 15 minute walk into the centre of Lamai. The hotel is just off the main road (no traffic noise travelled down though) and a couple of restaurants nearby which were nice (literally on the main road). Hired a moped off the owners which was convenient. Would 100% be our first choice of hotel as the price for what we got was incredible. Clean towels, air con, room cleaning. Gorgeous little ginger cat running around to top it off!

hotel tranquillo e pulito

considerato il costo modesto ho trovato queto hotel molto confortevole e pulito. La titolare è olto disponibile e gentile pronta a soddisfare tutte le nostre esigenze. Vicino al mare (tre minuiti a piedi in mezzo al verde tropicale) bella spiaggia tranquilla e molto lunga...... insomma un posto ideale per stare tranquilli e rilassarsi. E se si vuole "vita" a 5 minuti di motorino c'è da divertirsi e mangiar bene. Soddisfatissima!!!
