We really enjoyed our time here. Hightide the water came right up to the steps by thr pool, the wait staff was lovely, abd the front desk was very helpful Only thing is that there isnt anything around the resort, besides other resorts. If you have a bike or can rent one this place is great. We would come back!

It's calm and right on the ocean panorama infinity pool and value and position that you can't get any where on the island Koh Samui is an expensive island but the resort was a great deal can't refuse I paid $409 Australia dollars including breakfast daily same crystal brook equivalent in Australia you pay $500 a night which I think this lagoon out beat crystal brook in Byron bay by miles in value and location

Pretty isolated
The actual accommodation is nice but all the rooms are very cramped together and the walls are paper thin. The pool area is nice but again very small for the number of rooms here. You have to fight for a sun bed on busier times. The breakfast was great and the food in the restaurant generally good, though I wouldn’t recommend the burger which came with a beef patty about a third of the size of the bun they give you. This place is in the middle of nowhere with nothing close by so unless you’re planning on doing excursions you’re pretty stuck here or paying quite expensive taxis to go elsewhere. The positive was it was very clean and a good price

Best Boutique hotel in Koh Samoi
This boutique hotel was amazing. It provided for all our needs. The infinity pool over looks the ocean with direct beach access. The rooms are small but big enough for our needs. The pool bar had great food and drinks for cheap. We would definitely come back. The W hotel is also right next to this hotel. This hotel is famous for their rooftop pool bar area. We went to check it out. It was a great outing and close to the hotel.

Lovely stay
Escape Beach was really lovely. The facilities were really nice including a great pool. The restaurant/bar was fantastic, the only thing that could be better is daily happy hour! The only real thing I could fault was the internet, it would cut out and then you had to log on again. This happened very frequently. Otherwise a great place to stay.

Great Escape
We stayed seven nights in the economy room (in an apartment) which was comfortable. The only downside is that we heard everything our neighbours were saying and doing the walls being thin and the beds share the same wall. When we had quiet neighbours, you can't hear anything but most of them spoke loudly. The location is incredible, perfect for getting away. It is possible to walk, via beach to Fisherman's village (1.5 hours) and Maenam Viewpoint all the way across the bay (2.5 hours). Wear shoes of some kind because the sand on either end of the bay is coarse and sharp, and there is a lot of glass by the rocks. You must do your walk either side of low tide otherwise the beach disappears and it's hard to come back. The beach is quiet and stunning. No touts and hardly anyone considering it's high season. The restaurant at Escape is very very reasonably priced and good. The free breakfast delicious. There are offerings for vegans too (though much unvaried). The staff are wonderful and the place is very clean. The pool is lovely for a quick dip. Other restaurants are only a small walk along the beach away (massages etc) The taxi used by Escape is reasonably priced to go anywhere. Handy fixed price list too. We used Navigo on Koh Samui. The internet was fast, however, it was extremely annoying that you have to log in and type your password EVERY SINGLE TIME you open your phone again. Overall this is a great place to escape to!

Good resort for the price range.
Good service and facilities. Nice room, beautiful pool and view, decent restaurant and bar with super prices. Cons: the location of the resort is difficult to access and they really need to cover the water holes "ponds", on the resort's private road. Satisfied all and all.

Rude, unhelpful & dishonest staff.
Isolated location, is literally nothing around it. Rude, dishonest & unhelpful staff. Bad cockroach problems in the bungalows. Nearly pure chlorine in the pool. Breakfast is nice on a plus side. I wouldn't recommend it and am amazed anyone likes it. Bungalows are dark and just look out over the wall in front but view at pool area is nice, shame the pool is s toxic bath! NEVER use the tax service they recommend. Overpriced, tatty and dangerous.

The room with the beach front had an amazing view. You dont feel like going anywhere and can have beer all day long.... Good breakfast and good restaurant with variety menu. The only negative about this resort was slow wifi...i think it was only 2G. Very slow. Also, no lighting at their beach so u can not enjoy the beach at night.

Located in a quiet place in a corner. Amazing view. Located just right beside the beach. Comfortable room and friendly staff. Only thing is that pool is very small and not enough beach space, and definitely need a bike/car.

Money first.
Not Honest.......We had asked for a room for 3 adults but were provided with a room that was just about big for 2 people and we would have to climb over the third person to use the toilet, however for an additional amount per day (which we paid or had to) they would give us a bigger room. This was highly unprofessional. Further they got information that the cyclonic storm Pabuk was headed towards the island and all ferry services would be cut off for three days but they did not inform us guests as there would be cancellations and nobody would be coming to the island to take their rooms so they would stand to lose money. Totally dishonest. Location superb and food good but all could have been better with a little more regard putting guests firsthand not financial gain foremost..

restaurant was ok. the area is limited in options so it becomes a bit repetitive. overall it was ok but had to leave early due to obnoxious family who took over the pool area once they checked in - not the hotel’s fault but the smaller size of the resort is a factor.

Pleasant place to escape to away from the crowds at Chaweng. Not much nearby to walk to for entertainment and needs a taxi to nearby Fishermans Village (a daily shuttle service would be a welcome addition). The hotel bar and restaurant has a good and reasonably priced menu of both Thai and western food for lunch and dinner and the service and food was generally good. Would suggest they amend the 'Happy Hour' - only Wed -Fri, 6-8pm only on cocktails and cant mix drinks.
