Koh Samui was once a Thai fishing community, and that charming sensibility is still present today. Spending time in Bophut is a wonderful way to soak up local culture; the beachy village restaurants and pubs are perfect spots to experience the sunset. There aren’t many other places where you can bask in the camp of a cabaret show and the solemnity of a Buddhist temple. As far as the latter goes, Wat Plai Laem is a magnificent vision of gilded red rooftops and a massive spindly-armed statue of Guanyin.

Ammatara Pura Pool Villas is a 5-star resort tucked away in an exquisite corner of Thailand’s widely beloved Koh Samui Island. Our resort was born from the imaginings of Raja-living (the art of living like a King) and is situated alongside a quiet stretch of scenic Lamai beach. Ammatara Pura Pool Villas provides a luxurious sanctuary where guests are pampered and expectations surpassed. Our breath-taking resort has featured in fashion editorials for Harper’s Bazaar and Numero Magazine. We proudly offer an exceptional level of comfort and opulent furnishings amid a tranquil and picturesque environment.
My boyfriend and I stayed at the resort in a private pool villa for a week in May 2022. The whole resort is beautiful, with direct access to Lamai beach and what a beach! Also, just a short walk to the town, where you have lots of options i.e. restaurants, massage, small shops ect. The resort offers everything you’re looking for, fantastic, very clean rooms, excellent breakfast (everything is freshly made and so very delicious). they have a very nice fitness room as well - aircondition good equipment. The staff was fantastic, always very helpful, funny and smiling. We feelt truly welcome. Highly recommended resort! And we will definately return next time visiting Lamai. For us it was the perfect choice.

Intimate tranquil holiday in individual designed Beach and Mountainside Villas or Beach single rooms
Definitely 3* (or less). Very dated with what looks like 10-20 year old furniture from MFI. There are 4 (I believe) bungalows right next to the beach, so in this respect an excellent location, but this is where the good bit(s) end. Very small, un-ventilated bathroom. Relatively small rooms and available space. There are also a number of properties situated up on the "hill"side or perhaps rather mountain side. VERY steep access paths and roads (even the car could only just get up to our "villa"), certainly need to be young and fit to even get to your property. It says these properties are 1km from the beach, maybe as the crow flies, but its nearer 2km/1 mile and a bit of a hike up from the beach. Sorry but I give honest reviews and TBH this is not a good hotel and I am perplexed at the overall review level TA states. If you can get it cheap GBP50 a night or less (and less for the mountain villas) then it might be VFM. Otherwise I suggest you look elsewhere.

Spent 3 nights here, room is very comfortable and bed is fantastic. The pool overlooks the beach and it simply incredible, the beach is nice and clean as well. Yossi the owner is friendly and was always around to make sure everything was good. French bakery across the street does great breakfast sandwiches! 7-Eleven just across the road. Good location! Thanks

Lotus Samui is SHA certified for compliance with strict hygiene and safety standards as determined by Thailand's Ministry of Health for the protection of our guests and team members.
We stayed as a couple in one of the villas and we knew before that this would be over the top for our needs (3 bedrooms for 2 person). What we neither knew before nor expected was the excellent service and staff who were always available, extremely friendly, caring and not one single request was ever denied, too special or too complicated. They seemed like being prepared for anything which came up our mind. I wish this crew just the best and I am happy for every guest who will experience this outstanding package of no worries and just being happy. We will come back again. Thank you so much! ?

I and my wife stayed at 4 BR Villa 17 for a week and had an amazing experience at Samujana. The reservations team were very quick in responding to numerous queries as had to change dates twice due to covid. Each villa is unique and has much to offer. We preferred villa 17 as it offered the best views from from aircon living room and esp when we didn't need very big space for 2 people. The villa itself was well maintained with nice pool and sit out with excellent views. The natural rock formation is preserved cutting thru living room and pool giving a very unique touch to this villa. The serive was a great addition to our stay. Our In villa team of Sai and Pook did take an excellent care of us. They served a nice breakfast everyday and no request or ask was big for them. They were always available at villa and at the same time offered complete privacy. Great stay and Samujana is highly recommended

Chaweng Noi Pool Villa .Specially designed for guests who are looking for affordable luxury accommodation in Modern-boutique style. 100-Square-metre swimming pool plays a role as the highlight of the hotel. Due to the splendid location, guests are certainly among the lush of tropical greeneries. They can also enjoy Samui nightlife without taking too much time to reach.Great service valid from Now , Free shuttle to Beach & Chaweng Center.
I booked to stay in Chaweng Noi Pool Villa but could not travel on my original dates due to personal circumstances. I cancelled with the hotel and they confirmed I would be due a refund. Due to Test and Go requirements I had to make a second booking for the following week and pay for this separately. Since then I have sent numerous emails enquiring about my refund which is sizeable but they have stopped replying. I tried to speak to reception regarding the refund when I stayed but they could not assist and advised me to continue trying to contact the central booking. The customer service is very poor and they are refusing to return my money. I have my email confirming the refund is due and now they are not replying I find this very dishonest of them. I would not recommend booking with the hotel. There are other much better and helpful hotels such as Crystal Lamai or Chaweng Tara in the same area. Both properties had excellent front of house staff.
