Koh Madsum Holidays from AU$1,132

If wanting a quiet beachside stay in Koh Samui then Mai Samui is the island's best kept secret. It has one of the biggest pools with one of the best swim up to pool bars, an infinity pool too. The Buffett breakfast is fantastic and with 2 beachside resturants a short walk, along with cheap as beach massage and excellent coffee cafe it's a slice of paradise. Two free daily shuttles to Chaweng & Nathon provide excellent transport options if seeking action. The resort Spa is a la la ...bliss ! The staff seem to have a motto of "guest you are valued". Families and those who prefer quietness need look no further than Mai Samui. We have been to Koh Samui 4 times and staying at Chaweng Resorts & Mai Samui and everytime our Mai Samui stay is our favourite and sigh of relief to be back in paradise !

Very hilly and lots of stairs to access anything not great if any mobility issues. No beach access it’s on the beach front but no actual sand / beach which was very disappointing. And to top it off I broke a glass and was charged which I thought was cheeky I’ve never experienced that before! 100 baht for a broken glass

A nice spot on a beautiful island. Large private villa complex, although beware the 3 bedrooms were all in separate buildings so not great if you have small children. Staff very accommodating. Lovely to have our own private pool.

Perfect location and friendly staff members especially the guy from Myanmar in the reception, lovely guy to have met. Also all other staff members were very polite and always greeted well. We stayed at Garden villa for a day and ocean view villa for few other days. Honestly speaking my boyfriend and I preferred the garden villa as was close to the restaurant and other amenities especially when going out of the villa, but ofcourse we enjoyed using our jacuzzi and ocean view from our other villa. The hotel is very close to fisherman’s market and there was this scooter renting shop 5 min walk away which was very cheap. Breakfast had so many options to choose from. Highly recommend staying here

Half way between Lamai and Chaweng Beach. For 100 baht you can catch a tuk on the main road. This is the nicest place out of 10 resorts that I stayed at on Koh Samui. Only negative, the cottages are quite a ways into the resort, but they do have staff with carts to assist you.
