For breakfast, you will be given 200 THB voucher and you choose what you eat. The hotel is a part of Central Festival Samui. The parking is shared to the mall. So plenty of parking space. Only 2 minor problems for us. The air-con in the room is slow you have to let it work for a while until you get the cool. The room is not sound proof. You can hear the noise easily from inside the room but acceptable. Great stay, great service and friendly staff.

The hotel staff were very accommodating in that they allowed us to check in 3 hours early. Nothing was too inconvenient for them throughout the duration of our stay. We stayed in the Ocean Pool Front room which was beautiful. The general facilities within the room were great with turndown service every evening. We were provided with fresh fruit and varying teas every night. In terms of location, this hotel fronts Chaweng beach and this specific stretch of beach was particularly pleasant and quiet. The hotel incorporates a very nice restaurant, serving a wide array of various dishes as well as numerous cocktails. Again, the staff at this restaurant were fantastic everyday. All in all, we would certainly return to this hotel and would certainly recommend it to anyone wishing to visit Koh Samui. As a side note; there is a newly established Elephant Sanctuary

The staff very helpful. Khun Ae and Khun Keam they are very excellent. Nice swimming pool. I very like it. Only one thing should be improve " Breakfast" there is no choice. ...I enjoy my stayed at Chaweng Villawee.The location is amazing.

Pros - new, very clean rooms and bathrooms - great location in the middle of Chaweng - nice swimming pool and lovely beach - great if you are looking to party with a group of friends - hotel manager ( a lovely girl )reception staff and cleaners very helpfull and friendly Cons - very loud in the evenings - people are partying in the rooms and hotel staff doesnt do an...Pros - new, very clean rooms and bathrooms - great location in the middle of Chaweng - nice swimming pool and lovely beach - great if you are looking to party with a group of friends - hotel manager ( a lovely girl )reception staff and cleaners very helpfull and friendly Cons - very loud in the evenings - people are partying in the rooms and hotel staff doesnt do anything about it so if you are looking for some quiet time you will not find it there - restaurant staff speaks very little english so its a challange to order anything - lots of mistakes due to language barrier - don’t get breakfast there if you are not looking to eat noodles and chinese food for breakfast - plenty better places around serving also european breakfast - if you are traveling with young kids DO NOT book this hotel - they will not be able to sleep during the night - hotel full of people from China and Israel so if you are looking for more european place and relax you wont find it there

Having eventually found the hotel, as there are no signs indicating its location from the main road I can only say how much I enjoyed my stay. I have been coming to Thailand every year for the past 8 years and stayed on Samui on 3 of those occasions and I must say that my stay at the Samui First Hotel has been the best.

I have been coming to Thailand every year for the past 8 years and stayed on Samui on 3 of those occasions and I must say that my stay at the Samui First Hotel has been the best. The hotel was for a 3-star hotel excellent, location for the beach also excellent,(although hotel a little further from the main part of town than I would have preferred) but I cannot fault the service of your staff which was always polite and helpful. I would definitely stay at this hotel again and will highly recommend it to all my friends in the U.K.

This is a beautiful oasis of calm amongst the crazy of Samui. The rooms while simple are incredibly good value for money. The staff were very friendly with good cheap cooked food and the on site masseuses really did a great job. What a wonderful way to spend an hour looking at the ocean while you get all your stress worked out :).

The staff were very friendly with good cheap cooked food and the on site masseuses really did a great job. What a wonderful way to spend an hour looking at the ocean while you get all your stress worked out :). My only advice would be to not stay in the fan rooms, they are cheap for a reason. Get one of the incredibly affordable aircon rooms and your stay here will be brilliant!

I cannot find a single negative point for this hotel. Of all the hotels I stayed in Chaweng, this is my new all time favorite. The building and rooms are brand new and have all the facilities you need. There is a swimming pool on the roof, you can have an english breakfast. It is close to Central Festival shopping center and Chaweng' s nightlife. But not too close, so ...I cannot find a single negative point for this hotel.

But not too close, so you are not bothered by the noise of the music. Friendly and helpfull staff.

Ploen is located very close to the main road but far enough for the noise not to be a problem. The room is not big but the furniture is so properly managed that it feels spacious. It is also very clean, kind of new, and with pantry including sink, dishes, cuttlery and a microwave. It is very close to the beach, however the public access is like 5 minutes walking.

It is also very clean, kind of new, and with pantry including sink, dishes, cuttlery and a microwave. It is very close to the beach, however the public access is like 5 minutes walking. If you dare, you can always cross through some other resort. It is really just around the corner. You can also follow the road up to Central Festival Samui. A bit further, but a pleasant walk full of shops. The pool is a bit awkward as it is located on the Cafe and the sky pool is more like a jacuzzi, but that shouldn't stop you from relaxing on it a bit. Internet is free, fast and reliable, which is a plus. The staff is very friendly, with good english skills and willing to help. Stayed for more than a week and not a single problem was found. It is a pleasant stay, very good place, good located and, yes, with pantry. I would come back if travelling to Samui :-)

I've stayed at the Chaweng Budget Hotel now a few times during my many years of visiting Koh Samui. I've shopped around for various other hotels over the years, but I always seem to find myself wanting to come back to the Chaweng Budget Hotel. For one thing, the hotel is in a good location.

I've shopped around for various other hotels over the years, but I always seem to find myself wanting to come back to the Chaweng Budget Hotel. For one thing, the hotel is in a good location. South Chaweng is, to my mind, the best part of Chaweng Beach. You get away from the crowds and the noise, and yet you can get down to the busy strip easily enough if you want to. The beach itself is also much better for swimming at this end, and it's generally just a nicer area overall. The staff at the Chaweng Budget Hotel are always friendly. Each time I stay, it feels like coming home. The rooms are clean and well-attended, and they still offer one of the best breakfasts on the entire strip for this kind of money. Plus, you get to use the health and pool facilities of its sister hotel. All in all, it's hard to beat the Chaweng Budget Hotel for this kind of money.

Wanted to book a cheapish hotel for a couple of days in Chaweng to go diving. Chose this based on the price. It was clean and quiet and just what we needed.

It was clean and quiet and just what we needed. The manager was also very friendly and helpful with lots of tips on what to do and where to go for the rest of our Koh Samui hotel. He even organised an early takeaway breakfast for us to take diving, as breakfast didn't begin until after our pick up time!

First Residence Koh Samui was better than I expected. Their logo says "Budget Luxury" so I anticipated a cheap hotel that pretends (on the surface) to be a luxury accomodation with worn down cheap materials and poor standard, but I was wrong. I suggest the hotel change their logo to "Affordable luxury". The location was ideal with free parking under the house, big room...First Residence Koh Samui was better than I expected. Their logo says "Budget Luxury" so I anticipated a cheap hotel that pretends (on the surface) to be a luxury accomodation with worn down cheap materials and poor standard, but I was wrong. I suggest the hotel change their logo to "Affordable luxury". The location was ideal with free parking under the house, big room with balcony, well equipped with everything you need. Big comfortable bed, clean bathroom (also very clean bathtub!), rich and tasty breakfast, lovely pool with jacuzzi, free beach blanket and access to free sunbeds on the beach, free safety lockers in he reception - and very friendly staff. We had a very pleasant stay and I can strongly recommend it.

I usually keep my reviews short and sweet, but this place deserves a special mention. It was one of our most enjoyable stays in our 1 month travels through Thailand.

The hotel: New, clean, excellent wi-fi. The rooms: WOW! These are actually studio apartments, not just rooms. This means lots of space! There were actually 4 beds in our room! The bed was very comfortable. The room was spotlessly clean. The shower worked perfect. The air-con was great. The wi-fi was flawless. The balcony was big. What more can I say? Location: On the map you may think you are away from the action, this is not the case. You are at the South end of Chaweng, but as soon as you turn the corner, you're in the action! About 10 min walk to Central Festival. 2 mins from the beach. I actually prefer this section of the beach... less hawkers / people etc... - a lot more relaxing Breakfast: Breakfast is included in the room price. We were not expecting much, but WOW, we were blown away! Proper 'english' breakfast, which lined us up for the day. Great quality and good portions, we were impressed. The staff: WOW. I have honestly never met such hospitality in Thailand. It is run by a very particular French man and his lovely wife. They truly make you feel at home. The husband is very helpful and spent a lot of time chatting with us, we had great banter with him (being Irish we find it easy to mingle with people). He is truly a gentleman and knows how to treat his guests. His wife is also very helpful and again makes her guests feel very welcome. I wish them every success with this new business (only opened 4 months as of Dec 2015). If we are ever back in Samui, we will return here. Conclusion: If you are looking for a nice place to stay in Chaweng, look no further

I booked 2 days and ended up staying for 5 in early April. The rooms are big with balconies, I was upstairs. Good wifi and right on the beach. The place is really quiet given that is right in Chaweng. The beach chairs are nice and the staff is friendly. It's inexpensive and pretty basic but they do give you free water, shampoo, body wash and coffee in the room. I...I booked 2 days and ended up staying for 5 in early April. The rooms are big with balconies, I was upstairs. Good wifi and right on the beach. The place is really quiet given that is right in Chaweng. The beach chairs are nice and the staff is friendly. It's inexpensive and pretty basic but they do give you free water, shampoo, body wash and coffee in the room. It's all I needed. The bed was fine but they don't change your sheets, just make up the bed. Not a big deal for me but for some maybe it is. The A/C worked well but I have to say since it's a beach bungalow, I did get a lot of mosquito bites! If you are on a budget and want a place on the beach with access to bars, stay here. I think the best part is walking down the beach at night to all the bars and eating on the beach. Swimming is ok, just shallow water.

Very nice resort in good location. The room was a little smaller than expected but very clean and everything worked. We had a garden view with a nice veranda to sit but no privacy. 20 feet to the pool and restaurant, 40 to the beach.

I thought the breakfast was quite good with made to order eggs and real coffee any way you like. The staff couldn't have been any better, very friendly and went out of there way to smile and say hello. About 15 minute walk to Central Festival for shopping and a short walk the other way there is a decent food court.

The Chaweng Beach Hotel is a no frills hotel and is a good spot if you are looking for something clean and cheap in Samui. There is no pool and no restaurant.

There is no pool and no restaurant. A small breakfast offered, but I went for brekkie at the cafe down the road instead. The staff was really nice and they spoke English well enough that there was no confusion when checking in/out or when I had questions. The room was big and clean, a bit out dated but for the price totally acceptable. Internet is an extra cost and worked well, it's not the greatest but it's certainly not terrible either. They have a security guard at night as do most of the hotels in in the area. There is a taxi stand right outside of the hotel if you need a ride somewhere or back to the airport. The only thing that I found slightly odd was payment with credit card. I ended up booking another 2 nights there and payed directly to the hotel. They made it seem like the credit card machine was not working, but it was as I insisted on paying by credit card. If they ask you to pay cash, or go to the cash machine across the street.. don't. The machine works. I assume they prefer cash rather than paying the credit card fees. Overall, a great experience!

Maybe the outside ihasnot alot of atmosphere but the room is great. The shower is big/fabulous and can get Very very hot. Separate toilet. The bed kingsize very good not hard...the other bed ( single) also good. So you have an kingbed and a singlebed at the room.

Lots of towels all kind of sizes, even there are 2 large towels for the poobeds or beach ( Blue Lagoon ). I went to the Blue Lagoon beach.....you can buy food and drinks by the beachventers in the middle of Blue Lagoon and The Amari, good price of cours. TV great very very large size... lost of channels all internation some Thai channels to. The Wifi is pretty fast for Thailand. The reception good ...need them only for check in and out. I am very familiar at Samui. Restaurant Sala Thai around the corner surprises me and your next door of Prego famous Italian restaurant at Koh Samui. You can walk to the center, bars and shoppingmall ( Central Festival ). Iff u come for the room, pool, location and price its great

Very well maintained by the staff. Memories worth remwmbering from the time we got the pick up from another hotel to bhundhari. Location: At chaweng.. Not even 5mins drive to the main chaweng area. Big Buddha is also 5 mins drive from the resort but in other direction from chaweng main street. A perfect place for relaxing as well as partying. Facilities: Services at its finest. The pick up to the hotel and to the airport. The staff is very helful always with a smiling face. The resort is spread along 2 sides of the main road. If u r staying in rooms close to the beach then they always have a golf cart ready in 2 3 mins. The beach restraunt is nice along with the common pool with good music playing around throughout the day. The private pool is accesible from the room itself. And the beat part is the lightings. The view is mesmirising at night as well during the day. The lights in the pool allows to have agood swim during night hours as well. Bathroom is huge with a jacuzzi facing the pool and the beach. The sun beds are also comfortable enough besides the private pool. Had an awesome experience. A big thanks to Mr.Babu who was very friendly and attended to all our needs. You just think of something and Mr.Babu has the answer to it. From the time we checked in till we checked out throughout our stay he made sure that we had a comfortable stay. Hotel can arrange the car or bike if you want to drive along. Food: Buffet breakfast was perfect with a vast variety. Also the lunch dinner and snacks were good. Room service avilable also you can enjoy the food next to the beach. Conclusion: A perfect resort. Will definetly recommend bhundhari to anybody visiting koh samui.

For tailor, go to Moda Milan International Suits and see Rooney (nicest guy you'll meet).

The shop is around five minutes walk towards Chaweng shopping precinct (Burger King etc.) on the left hand side of the road. Down that same side street, you will find internet cafe (1BHT/min) who are also able to do tour bookings - see Chicken (English translation for his real name!). Be sure to book yourself onto the Jungle Safari - though attempt to bargain them down. Originally 1,700BHT, I got for 1,500BHT and a mate was able to bargain another agent down to 1,100BHT! At the end of this side road is the Ark Bar - best eatery in Samui-a must try. Also, nearby on the other side of the road you will find Martin's Place - small, friendly & tasty eatery with Italian and Thai cuisine. The people of Samui rock! If you can be in Samui for the Full Moon Party, do it. But hit Koh Phangnan for the party itself. Bus/speedboat transfers between Samui and Koh Phangnan are easily arranged at around 600 Baht.

The owner personally dropped me at 04h30 in the morning at the airport to get my flight home. I had booked for 3 days initially, but eventually stayed for 18 days. The beach is a stone`s throw from the hotel and for a travellor travelling on a budget this place was excellent. I have recommended all my friends stay here on their future visit to Thailand.
