3 Stars Hotels in Surat Thani Province, Thailand

The hotel is 300 metres away from Seatran bus terminal so it makes the trip to Koh Samui easier. Ticket price for the bus transfer plus kferry to Koh Samui is 320 bahts. We stayed for a night only. The breakfast in the hotel is very simple and we took away and ate while waiting for the bus to the pier. There is a Chinese restaurant just in front of Seatran office and served nice Chinese dish with affordable price. The name is Chai huai restaurant.

Location is highly strategic, cleanliness is excellent, and the rooftop infinity pool is breathtaking. But the best part of staying in Cosi is Khun Cartoons at front desk; she is one-of-a-kind, her smile, personality, and service spirit. are in different level. She deserves a promotion and a hefty raises. The hotel is very lucky to have her on the team. Definitely return to see her again.

I stayed her for 2 nights after a fiasco with another hotel and It was a breath of fresh air. The location is great, there are shops, message parlor, food, other extra curriculars near by and its walking distance to Chaweng (it's a bit of a walk but can be done). The staff was thorough and very helpful, I also received a free room upgrade to the family suite which was really nice and spacious... Then I saw a lizard in the curtains next to a small hole in the wall under the window. The windows were closed upon my arrival so I figured It came in through there. With that The room was big and clean though thee shower was slightly clogged. The lighting in the restroom is quite dim and the sink fixture(faucet) is disproportionate to the sink itself. Nothing major but that really bothered me. I would have appreciated white towels as well. The cleaners replaced my linens but It was a bit of a struggle to get her to do It. The breakfast wasn't bad but It wasn't good either. The fried noodles, fruit, and juices were good. All was well until I came to my room to grab my bags to check out and a long bright green snake slithered from under my used towels. I wasn't too frightened because I figured you can't be too far from critters being that it's a tropical island. The snake may have come from the toilet or the hole in the wall that I mentioned earlier. There were some good things and places that need improvement but I felt welcomed to a clean space, I would recommend this hotel if you're spending a lot of time outside and need a place to lay your head. I wasn't able to make It to the pool but It looked nice and there's a bar at the pool.

Nice, basic hotel. No gym/pool, But a very large parking. 10 min ride to the center. Was written there is a bathtub in the room - but we got only a normal shower, so if its important to someone - notice it We have 3 kids, Reserved triple room, merged the beds - and the kids sleet with us. Was perfect.

We booked a suite with one bedroom and two balconies. It’s big enough for a small family. Cleaning service comes every day. Kind stuff, prompt service. There is a small beach in the front of the hotel. A few restaurants around, including one in the resort. Big C and Seven 11 nearby.

Traveling on the island of Samui in Thailand, they stayed at Samui First House 3* on the beach of Chaveng Noi, on the eastern side of the island in March 2020. The hotel is a three-star hotel, old, no territory but wins everything because of the location! On the first line at the beginning of the beach. Always enough chedrons with umbrellas Just opposite in the water there are huge walnuts that play the role of the waves. The poet swim is very comfortable. Beside them you can take snorkeling, look at fish. The beach is big. It is nice to walk along the sand along the sea. The sea is warm, transparent turquoise water. Living in a deluxe on the second floor with a view to the sea. The room is good, there is everything you need, even an extra bed. The bathroom is a shower bath. There is a swimming pool. The restaurant serves a Swedish table for breakfast, Choice is small but you will not stay hungry. There is infrastructure near the hotel. Cafe, Family Mart, spa salons. To the center of Chavenga you can leave on a tuck-tuck for 20 b. A small hotel with the best location. Nearby are 4.5* hotels that are not different. Why overpay? I recommend it to everyone.

Great place for most people romantic meal with entertainment or a later night party! I came with my partner we’re in the 35+ age range and we enjoyed a reasonably priced tasty meal, watched the fire show which I believe is every evening at 8pm. It was a cool addition to the evening and was good entertainment. We left around 9 as it was wrapping up. Would definitely go again. The bear bar area is cool vibes. A bit Ibiza beach club vibe, trendy lights and tunes but not too bold or in your face. You have a romantic dinner. If you want to stay on and party and be wild I’m certain that’s a an option but it’s not my partners thing so we left. All staff were friendly and we were overall very happy

We had to spend just one night before taking the ferry at good time the next morning and we chose this hotel . Super !!! Not disappointed !!! The hotel is very well placed ! The hotel is very clean and very clean. In the room, the bed is especially big, you can even sleep at 4 so the bed is large, everything is functional, a large office full of electrical takes, a beautiful shower, even the shampoo and the shower freezing feel good, everything is perfect. The only small blame: a big hiding cord that separates the room from the shower room, and toilets...a little disturbing for the toilets... and the white plastic shower cord that denotes with the super decor of the room... but sincerely for the The staff is really adorable. If I go back to Suratthani, I will go back without hesitate to this hotel !!! It's an exceptional price quality ratio!! 👍🏼 Bravo for deco !!! Bravo for everything !!! 👍🏼

We stayed here a couple of nights. Check-in was quick and easy, the room clean, and the bed comfortable. We had the included breakfast the first morning and it was fine, the lady working in there kept everything in order and was cleaning up as needed. There is one thing however, it's not really a negative and it didn't effect my final score but there isn't much to see in the general area and it can be difficult finding transportation if you are out walking.

Great Boutique hotel in Chaweng. Excellent value. The room were sparking clean and has everything one needs including beach towels and umbrellas. There is a pool but not gym which is fine. It is centrally located. The breakfast is OK but sufficient. Had a quick dinner meal one night since it was raining and had a long day and did not want to venture out to the many restaurants in the area. There was no one else so we did not have high expectations but the meals were excellent and my friend raved about the drink he got. The entire staff were excellent and so kind. Front desk were efficient and warm. The concierge had GREAT recommendations on tours. We took all the ones she recommended and were not disappointed. This part of Chaweng beach is OK. Not a swimmers beach, more of a just a dip in the ocean place. I was not able to take advantage of the Kayak but did that anyway on one of the tours we took. I love Samui and will definitely return and if staying in Chaweng will definitely want to be at The Stay again.

We met as 4 couples from different sides of the world in this little resort. From day one we were made to feel welcome by the hotel staff. Our rooms were clean and comfortable. They were cleaned daily and water provided. The restaurant area is right next to the beach. So easy to have food and drinks then look out to the water. The breakfast daily was simple but substantial. The sun loungers were ample and daily we would sit out on the beach. The sea was shallow where we were but just a short walk it was deeper. Plus we had the pool. We were able to walk to the local mini mart for supplies and 10 minutes we were in Chaweng town where there were plentiful restaurants of all types. So at least our resort was tucked away from the noisy bustle of the town. This resort is a diamond amidst the larger more expensive ones. The island of Koh Samui has changed alot since I last came here. But the people are always so friendly day and it has a special charm of it's own. Can't recommend Samui Natien highly enough for a beautiful getaway.

Great room, clean except for the towel rack in the bathroom, which had been forgotten for a while. Unfortunately, pictures were shown beforehand that didn't exist, for example 2 pools and they didn't have one. There was no refund for that. The hotel is right in front of a walking street, which is great in itself but unfortunately there is loud music until 1 a.m.

Came to our room to find things sifted through and items missing from our suitcases. Told night time staff, he said to return in the morning, in the morning she told us she will check and let us know, about 4:30h later we went and asked what happened and if they checked footage, she claimed she didn't have time to call us and she showed us a few seconds of a person leaving and said see they didn't take anything. We asked to see the full footage. On footage, the housekeeper was in our room for 30 minutes, yet nothing was replenished except towels changed, room was not cleaned as seen in pictures. Manager said it takes them 15 -20 minutes to clean a room and change everything, she was there for over 30 and didn't do any housekeeping, no cleaning, no new sheets. She also hid a large bag by the door, partially seeb, previous housekeepers left everything by the stairs and had cleaning products , this one didn't. Only 1 tiny bottle. When we asked them about the duration of her stay in the room given the fact nothing was actually done, They had no explanation for that. Both our suitcases and nicely folded H & M bag were sifted through. We came for our honeymoon, and it is our 9th hotel in Thailand. Its an absolutely shocking and frustrating experience. We asked to cancel the rest of the stay as we wanted to leave. Manager Grace Lwin first said they will refund, than returned and said that they can't refund , that I have to contact Expedia. Expedia was waiting on approval of the booking management. Due to the lack of care we decided to involve tourist police. What an awful experience to have. No one should be looking through your things at a hotel room, it's a violation of privacy and trust. Hotel safety is a priority and this hotel doesn't have it. Update: Booking manager Grace Lwin told us she wants to come to the room to look through our things because she said she wants ”to check if you lie”. What?? We showed her. If you check our room, you should check your employees house too but of course they only checked us! We started recording everything on our camera as we couldn't believe what was happening. We found a different hotel and checked out early. On top of everything, Its the only hotel out of now 10 hotels we have been to in Thailand where the lock to the room doors doesn't work, you can't lock from inside, and the room itself is in bad shape.

What an amazing hostel. Everything was beautiful. The lockers were the biggest lockers ever. It was literally 2 lockers put into one for those who had a suitcase yu r in luck. 2 pools and a beautiful bar overlooking out into the ocean. The only hostel that i need in koh samui. This is for a fact “the spot”. Whether youre backpacking and need a bunkbed or if u just want to get drinks or food. They got a huge selection of drinks and food. Amazing spot.

The hotel is 300 metres away from Seatran bus terminal so it makes the trip to Koh Samui easier. Ticket price for the bus transfer plus kferry to Koh Samui is 320 bahts. We stayed for a night only.

Delighted to find that Evergreen (and many other hotels) are opening again all across Thailand. While there is still no international tourism in the country, local tourists and business travelers are beginning to play a role in economic recovery. The hotel continues to provide an excellent product. Welcoming, convenient, clean and comfortable. And a good sized carpark too (which was totally full as we left early morning, so clearly business is pretty good). We will be back!

The room is clean, the parking lot is spacious, the receptionist is polite. It is suitable for relaxation. It is a good choice.

The room was clean, the view was beautiful, the breakfast buffet was very good, but nothing special. Quiet and beautiful swimming pool during the day (there are many Thais after 4 pm); opposite the Yichu Lotus (5 minutes walk), very close to the city center shopping mall, and there are shuttle buses! When going out, don't take the blue tucktuck taxi in front of the hotel (they are special pits), if you want to go to the city center during the day. Just wait at the bus stop in front of the hotel... Tickets are about 10 to 20 baht, depending on the number of stops.

I arrived 2 hours earlier and was checked in immediately, for which I thank you very much. The room has panoramic windows, light and beautiful. However: Of the obvious disadvantages - the location is far from any infrastructure and VERY dirty. There was someone else's black hair on the bed linen, a lot of it. The linen did not leave a feeling of freshness, as if it had not been changed since the last guest. The reception staff does not speak English.

I'm sure at one time this was a four-star hotel. The decor is lovely, the rooms are neat and clean, the beds are very good but the amenities are lacking. the rooms provide a pot to make hot water and coffee cups to go with it but no coffee or tea is available. The only soap for a shower were the small standard bars of soap no body wash or gel as is customary here. There was shampoo however. As we walked about last night we noticed that there was a large restaurant and entertainment venue along the river but it looked like it had been closed for many months. Breakfast this morning was the worst that I have had in Thailand. We had to select from a menu when we came in yesterday and I expected to go down to a restaurant and eat but it was delivered this morning to our door and all of the food was cold, especially the eggs which I abhor. I don't remember the price difference between a room with or without breakfast or even if there was a price difference but this was a poor attempt at any kind of breakfast. I am very disappointed. Lastly, I will say that the views are very nice and we are on the highest floor, the sixth floor period with a view of the river and downtown Surat Thani.

This ageing but very well cared for, wheelchair friendly hotel was perfect for a transit stop en-route to Koh Samui apart from 2 things. Firstly, the location on Google Maps is hopelessly inaccurate, and the best advice the staff could give was to find Lotus's (could have been worse, they could have said 7-11). If we could find Lotus's, we'd be able to see the hotel from there. Second problem was, after a long journey, we did not want to go in search of food. The hotel restaurant was not open for evening meals. Staff directed us to a street food place, just outside the hotel - not very nice, and we left more than we ate. I got the feeling we suffered because the hotel was still getting back on its feet post Covid. I would most definitely recommend this hotel as a transit stopover en-route to the islands.

Unfortunately we were very disappointed with our stay here. The location of the hotel is amazing, on the beach along a very busy ***** of restaurants and beach bars which was great. However, the hotel itself was sadly a let down. The hotel keep whistling birds in cages just outside the hotel rooms so expect to be woken at all hours by birds whistling louder than we could believe. The room we were in was very basic to the point where the only plug socket was by the front door, so to dry my hair I had to stand at the front door with no mirror or chair… The shower was a fixed height (very low) so my partner had to be on his knees to wash his hair and I had to bend significantly despite not being very tall. The room was very dark with basically no natural light at all throughout the day. The bedding was just a thick blanket, that I imagine isn’t washed between guests, in between two loose sheets so the blanket kept coming out of the sheets. The toilet was very temperamental and wouldn’t always flush properly. One positive is that the air con was strong however to circulate the air we also had the fan on and this made an annoying screeching noise when it turned to a certain point, which again, woke us up during the night. We didn’t have breakfast because we had a look at what was on offer and decided to go elsewhere as there are lots of nice local places to eat. The staff also weren’t the most pleasant and even got our dates confused when we checked in. Sadly wouldn’t recommend this hotel.

We booked Villa cha cha in last minute. They charged us really high price around. Hotel situation is amazing but hotel is not good for stay. They have many rooms but just have 6 sunbeds, no sunbed around poolside, the staff did not clean tables, sunbed mats during our stay, breakfast area is also dirty and smelly. All windows has finger print and oily. We were really worry about hygiene cause we visited island after covid. They do not care about hygiene!!!!!! By the way I wanted get coffee from breakfast area around 7:45 am, the staff (name is KAE) did not allow me to take. But I saw someone who is gonna check out easily have their beeakfast at the same time. If you want to save your money and stay comfort do not stay at this hotel anyway. They charged us around 700 usd for 5 days. Basic bungalows are better then to stay at villa cha cha! Don’t be deceived their location and hotel pictures.

Stayed here for 3 days, think it's family run lodge. The hotel room key was really a key, a big one. The door creaked when opening but overall the room was nice, amenities was good. When requested for a kettle, the kind old lady provided me very fast....very nice. Pity did not make use of the swimming pool as it was hot for 2 of the days there. A short walk to a food court nearby, Thongsala Square (where the race start)...and the Walking Street where they had a nice night bazaar on Saturday, pity it rained halfway. Also a short walk to Phantip Market area. But definitely need taxi to the site of Full Moon Party lol Yes, also had a lot of tour agencies just outside the hotel. And laundry services, I did mine at a cheap 80 baht...and it came back ironed and with a nice fragance ...Highly recommended. (ok, they do have some self service laundry too at 30 bht per kg??? but definitely not ironed??)

Thankful that this property was available for us to book during the busy April 2023 Full Moon Party season. For a beachfront property with a swimming pool, I find their rates are super cheap. We arrived at noon time and we were allowed to check in immediately. Our room was spacious and came with a veranda. The place could be cleaner but it never got a point that we felt it was bothersome. Make sure your windows are locked! On our third night, we discovered our windows were unlocked from the get go but luckily all our belongings were intact. The staff were friendly and helpful. The resort is within walking distance to the Full Moon Party and Haad Rin Pier so that's definitely a huge plus. If you're planning to party and just need a decent and affordable place to crash, then this is it.

Haad Yao beach has become one of the best walking/swimming/nightlife beaches on the island, and Bayview sits right at its North end. You get a beach resort experience -- pool, restaurant, convenience store, and frequent room cleaning -- all for a guesthouse price. I have stayed at Bayview many times, and I always return. The views from some of the rooms are magnificent! Prices fluctuate quite a bit by demand (e.g. higher during Fullmoon parties) but if you keep this in mind, it is possible to work with staff to secure good deals.

This place is a little rustic but has some real charm. Set in the rocks on the side of the bay, it is a little steep getting up to the restaurant and back down to the rooms but there are plenty of steps about and you soon get used to the short climb. The site may need a little touch up here and there but the views from the restaurant, the quality, value and flavours of the meals available as well as the efficiency, attentiveness and sheer friendliness of the staff makes up for it. We hired a bungalow which was two separate rooms (both with an ensuite) and with a shared balcony. The property also had a gate for privacy. This was ideal for us as a family of 5, although my youngest (10) had to sleep on a mattress on the floor which she wasn't initially impressed with. However, we had views of the bay from the balcony and, generally, the beds were comfortable and the place quiet. Infact, my husband and I slept with our bedroom doors open, as we could see the sea, and were woken by some beautiful sunrises each morning. We then dozed off again until breakfast. The staff were hugely accommodating and bent over backwards for us all. We were able to borrow the kayaks and life jackets to explore the bay and, for a small fee, the team were able to drop us wherever we needed to go on the island. My husband and I did some diving with Roctopus Dive School and my girls did some try dives but it was no-issue for the Taootoh staff to take and collect us from Sairee Beach. The bay has numerous turtles and each time we snorkelled we saw at least one. It was also highly amusing watching visiting tourist boats come to the bay as you could always tell when someone had spotted a turtle as suddenly a sea of orange (from the life jackets) would move around the bay together. The location of Taatoh is great. It's off the main road and away from the rest of the guesthouses/hotels but within walking distance (10 minutes tops) of the beach, bars and seafront. Just around the corner in the opposite direction is Freedom Beach. You pay a small fee to enter but it was worth it. The beach is small and secluded but the bar has many tables to chill at (overlooking the bay) as well as comfy beanbags. There are so many fish in the waters here and we were lucky enough to see some turtles. We absolutely loved it here and are so pleased we chose it over our other choice on the opposite side of the bay. My girls have asked to go back which is always a good sign! PS - They love cats and have quite a few pets, all well cared for and very friendly.

We had a really lovely stay here! Our room was bright and comfortable. The girls on reception were extremely friendly and helpful - they always greeted us with a smile and helped us book a snorkelling day trip, muy Thai and also our transport back to Bangkok. Our room had a lot of mosquitos around at night so prepare some spray or ask reception for some mosquito repellent that you can burn outside - they are always happy to help. The hotel is right on the beach front and it was such a nice location on the beach we didn’t even use the pool. The sun is on this side of the island pretty much all day so you are able to bun bathe and then watch the sunset at night. The restaurant food was nice - mix of western and Thai foods. Would highly recommend a coconut smoothie! Thank you for such a lovely stay to end our time in Thailand. We will definitely be back in the future. ขอบคุณมาก!

The location is ok, it's not far from the beach, but far enough away from the bars to reduce that particular noise at night. However, it is near a significant amount of construction, and on the main street, so it gets quite loud. The walls are also very thin, so you heard all the noise of your neighbors, every door slamming in the hallway, and everyone noisily going to/leaving their rooms. The rooms without AC are almost unbearable... It was so hot and miserable, and only has one tiny ceiling fan (which you aren't able to control the direction of), that we decided to change accomodation after one night. Luckily, we were able to find a similar accomodation, right on the beach, with AC, for half the price. The staff were very friendly/helpful (probably the best aspect about the hotel), and the property is well taken care of). However, overall it just wasn't worth the price, especially given that we switched to something better, while also paying half as much. If it's the only or the cheapest option available, and you don't mind noise, and can get an AC room, then it's fine. But personally, there are better places for the price.

I had a great experience staying at this hotel, which is conveniently located just a 15-minute walk from the port. The rooms were clean, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The hotel offers a shuttle service to the Full Moon Party, which made attending the event hassle-free. The beautiful nature surrounding the hotel creates a peaceful and relaxing environment. If you're looking for a quiet and tranquil place to stay, this hotel is a great choice

I stayed at this truly wonderful resort for a month and I hope to return. I learned of Utopia from a friend who has been visiting the magical island of Koh Phangan for 15 years. A seasoned traveler, my friend has lived in numerous places around the island and has settled on Utopia as being the best. I was grateful for her recommendation and was unsurprised to find myself in complete agreement. From even before I arrived I began to experience helpfulness and consideration of the owner and manager of this superb resort. She was genuinely accommodating as my plans to arrive went through a few changes. Because I was staying for such an extended period and was booking with very little notice, the owner worked out a plan for me to move three times during my stay. This enabled me to experience the different varieties of rooms available. I truly enjoyed my time in each of the rooms, but the sea view rooms are simply spectacular. The staff of this resort are superb, managing to blend professionalism, warmth, courtesy, and consideration in a seemingly effortless way. From the moment I arrived at the pier, where I was met by Raymond, I began to experience the helpful and friendly support of the resort’s superb staff. Phangan can present some challenges to the first time visitor. At every juncture Raymond & Dar, the two key staff members at reception, stepped in to help in help in the most thoughtful and natural fashion. Both Raymond & Dar were also great guides to the many beautiful features of the island. Truly all of staff at Utopia — the housekeepers, restaurant workers, and groundskeepers — are first rate and each does their part to make it the warm, welcoming, beautiful place that it is. I want to single out Raymond and Dar, though, for truly helping to make my stay at Utopia the joy that it was. I very much look forward to seeing them again when I have the good fortune to return.
