3 Star Koh Samui Holidays

A truly relaxing stay at ibis Our stay at ibis was everything we hoped for and more. The location is absolutely perfect — right on the beach, with stunning ocean views, peaceful surroundings, and that magical tropical vibe that instantly puts you at ease. From the moment we arrived, the team made us feel welcome and cared for. Every staff member was friendly, attentive, and genuinely warm throughout our stay. A special mention goes to Toto from the restaurant team. Although he wasn’t there during breakfast, he made our lunches absolutely memorable. His kind smile, thoughtful service, and positive energy brought a special charm to every meal. It’s people like him who truly make a difference in the guest experience — thank you, Toto! The variety of food offered throughout the week was also impressive. From Thai favourites to Western comfort food, everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavour. The only small downside was that the pool closed a bit early at 7 PM — we would have loved to enjoy a quiet swim under the evening sky. But honestly, that’s a minor detail in what was otherwise a perfect stay. We’re leaving feeling relaxed, happy, and very grateful. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a beachfront getaway with heart, soul, and great service.

Great location! We had the best view from room 4121 in building 5. The rooms are simple, but comfortable. Unfortunately, we experienced a bad smell coming from the toilet. However, the service was excellent — the staff truly did their best and we really appreciated their efforts. Breakfast was very basic, with not enough vegetables or variety. Still, for those looking for a budget-friendly hotel, this is a great solution.

We stayed at the hotel 6 nights. We had a family interconnected rooms. We could not complain about anything! Great daily room service, drinking water every day, clean pools, beautiful beach, ping- pong table and many more. Quiet, clean place with helpful staff. Great breakfast and 15 min walk distance to the night market.

Could not fault a thing. This stunning resort is fantastic for a longer stay on Samui. The location is on the beach and it’s a 10 minute ride to fisherman’s village. The room is spacious enough and comfortable. The staff are absolutely lovely and nothings too much. The pool area is a wonderful place to relax. We thoroughly enjoyed the meals and drinks that were on offer at the pool as well. We will be back next year, and for longer too!!!

I highly recommend this place, especially for families. Ibis is a 'budget brand' but I think this resort has made really good decisions on what to be budget on and what not to be. It has a proper resort feel with a great beachfront location, good pools, plentiful loungers, nice playground and very well maintained grounds. The 'budget' part of the resort feels like the small rooms and the buffet breakfast. The rooms though are clean and comfortable and the breakfast isn't bad, it just isn't great. We spent our days by the pool, on the beach or doing activities so a small room was the least of our concerns.

Nice hotel with a great location. Breakfast is decent — you get what you need. The staff will prepare eggs in any style: fried, boiled, scrambled, or as an omelet. Very good! Sun loungers are available both by the pool and on the beach. Rooms are clean and spacious. Note: There is a lot of noise from a pub if you’re staying on the riverside, especially near the road.

Review and ratings are based on the fact that it's a 3* hotel. We had a room in the building by the sea and it was quite spacious. Being on the 4th floor we also had a sea view. Breakfast was relatively basic, with only one Asian dish and the usual international choices. Pool was very near the beach and you could use either easily from the loungers. Hotel staff were all very friendly. A short walk to the Central shopping centre and Chaweng nightlife

The Ocean view is awesome. Direct beach access, with loungers and a bar. The atmosphere is wonderful, a paradise. The staff are wonderful and professional. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back. Our room was perfectly clean and tidy. House keeping is excellent. The room is also quite spacious and the air conditioner was just right with easy adjustments.

The location is great and the rooms are clean and spacious. Opt for the Ocean building if you want a quiet stay. But the reason I'm giving it 5 stars is because of the staff. I had a really bad jellyfish sting and Top, Nene and Gem helped me and saved me from a lot of pain. They had the first aid ready and were extremely patient and helpful. The manager Neung also helped, and offered to drive me to the hospital if needed. We also got a complimentary late check out. Lastly, the receptionist Music was great in facilitating the room upgrade we requested when we arrived. If we come back it will definitely be because of the lovely staff at the hotel.

Having stayed many, many times at this resort wanted to give our honest opinion. Our room/rooms always to our liking, ocean side, cleaned daily and maid service very good. Reception very kind, Loved the " old" staff of Chaba as knew them for many years but you adjust and new faces have been helpful and kind, very good service. Breakfast good, not as good as old buffet but this may change would love manho as a fruit on breakfast! We love the pool and beach but miss the massages. Recommend this resort for families, couples etc and can't wait to come back April 2026 with extra person, sons friend this time ❤️

Pros: Good location. On beachfront which is beautiful and very clean. Great buffet breakfast with a great variety of salads and Thai food.Excellent friendly service from breakfast crew Tong and Yong.Tong in particularly, is very helpful, hard-working and cheerful, with good communication skills. Up to date TVs and lovely bathroom. Clean and very good standard of hygiene. Cons: Rooms are too small. No real outside space- a tiny token balcony 1 foot by 4 foot. Hotel is quite noisy with constant annoying music. Not 4 star in my opinion.

The hotel was clean and comfortable. Great location (the Main Street was jst outside the hotel and everything including cheap laundry, good massage parlours and plenty of restaurants on the street) and amenities. The staff specially Green and Annie were incredibly helpful and welcoming. Made our stay enjoyable!

Robert

A good hotel with professional friendly staff. Room was spacious and clean with plenty amenities. Location is excellent, beside many bars and restaurants. Lots of families so does get loud. Only thing let it down in my opinion was no evening bar to chill at, if you want to escape the hustle of outside bars.

Rooms are pretty small, but the convenient pool/beach access from the poolside Deluxe rooms was nice. Perfect location and right on the beach. Breakfast was a bit bland though, and could be more varied. Very helpful staff.

Thanks a lot to Beem from the Reception OZO hotel surprised us beyond belief. We arrived without a booking and were immediately kindly helped. We were taken to two rooms to see what we thought of them. Immediately chose a good room and enjoyed breakfast in the morning. Very extensive and everything hot until 10.30. The pool is slightly on the warm side but with 30 degrees outside, you can understand that. It is a super hotel, everything is clean and tidy. Contrary to all the reviews, we definitely want to come back here. Next time on Samui.
