Anantara Lawana Koh Samui Resort

Absolutely loved our stay at Anantara Lawana! The resort is beautiful — peaceful location, stunning pool, and a gorgeous private beach. The rooms were spacious and well-kept, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Loved the Tree Tops dining experience — truly memorable. Perfect mix of luxury and relaxation. Highly recommend!

We had an amazing stay here, beautiful quiet beach. Great singing Bird Lounge and treetop dining experience ( our staff art and Emma) were superb. All the staff and the experience from the moment you walk in till you check out makes you feel so pampered

Just about 5 starts but a really lovely trip overall. Excellent location at its own little stretch of beach. Beautiful and serene lobby area, lovely foliage throughout the extensive property. The main infinity pool is excellent and a lovely place to hang out. As are the beach restaurants and bars, which have a calm vibe overall. A decent number of families, which makes things nice and lively. Breakfast superb. Service really great. Gym excellent. Small deductions for our dark room (not sure why they were to stingy with windows) and because the sea was “closed” 3 out of our 5 days because a jellyfish sighting.

When we first checked into the pool suite, we were a bit disappointed with the size of the room as it appears much larger in online pictures. Basically the actually room is TINY as most of the square footage was the outdoor plunge pool and deck area. There is also no view in such room types. Then 5 mins later my husband discovered the toilet is clogged and then we contacted the reception immediately to ask to change rooms… we saw the pool access room (bigger but no privacy and no view) and then the only other option we had was the two bedroom sea view villa during our dates…. Once you see the amazing view and space in this villa, it’s basically impossible to go back to stay in a much smaller room with zero view or privacy… so we decided to splurge on the two bedroom sea view villa just for the two of us… We received a small discount for the upgrade but we still ended up paying 5x the original price of the pool suite but you do get what you paid for as this villa came with free nonalcoholic mini bar, daily afternoon tea, two free massages in the villa per person, one free in-villa BBQ and 24 hour on-call service. We could also have had free Muay Thai, yoga or PT sessions if we wanted but we didn’t end up requesting any of this. At first we thought we were paying too much even after the discount cos there were only two of us but in the end we felt it was worth it cos the staff really went out of their way to make us feel pampered and taken care of. Despite the higher price tags of this resort and the higher category of rooms, you do get what you pay for. If we had stayed in the regular room or the pool suite, our experience would have been totally different and probably not good at all as we are the type who just wants to relax in the room and go to the gym during our vacation. I cannot imagine now how our experience would have been if we had stayed in the pool suite. So my recommendation for this resort is that get a sea view villa, go to the Tree Top restaurant and request for a high table with view. You will get what you pay for!

We got a pool villa and stunned with elegant and Thai traditional style villa. We were very impressed. The breakfast was so good and various choice. The beach was nice and peaceful. Recommended
