Chaba Cabana Beach Resort

Koh Samui, Thailand

Virgin rating

The hotel

In arguably the prettiest spot on Koh Samui, the Chaba Cabana Beach Resort is a bright and cheerful island escape on the soft white sands of Chaweng Beach – studded by palm trees. From rooms to reception, it’s been designed with a tropical tribal flavour. Cashing in on its beachfront spot, its pool stretches out towards the sands and its restaurant windows open up to reveal infinite views of the sea. But, if you can tear yourself from the vista, it also puts you just a walk from the shops, bars and restaurants of lively Chaweng itself, making it ideal for relaxation and recreation.

For value for money, you cannot go far wrong with this resort ! Yes there are probably better, but it is genuinely first class, accommodation, service and the staff are just wonderful and can not do enough to make your stay perfect. The food is excellent and the evening views are enchanting

Rooms are great, TV has all premier league games live (Thai sky sports???) AC is freezingly good,… Read more

Rooms are great, TV has all premier league games live (Thai sky sports???) AC is freezingly good, clean sheets and towels everyday. Two great roadside resturants just outside on the main road, (Kate's is marginly the poorer). 100 baht on the taxi jeepney into town for 2. Seriously....whats not to like Read less

Second visit to this hotel and it didn’t disappoint. The staff here are very welcoming and will go out of their way to assist you with whatever you need. Close enough to Chaweng but far enough away from the hustle & bustle of the town. Great stay and would highly recommend.

Chaba Cabana is a nice small quiet resort right on the water front! It is close to the airport but the location wasn't an issue as they have a free shuttle to take you to the town centre. I booked all my day tours at the front desk and they all include pick up and drop off so its super easy! Staff are so friendly, great breakfast and easy access… Read more
