Chaweng Regent

Koh Samui, Thailand

Virgin rating

The hotel

The Thai-style, low-rise cottages create an intimate, tropical atmosphere here. You’ll be surrounded by palm trees and right on the gently shelving white sands of Chaweng Beach. There’s plenty to do if you feel the urge - maybe a spot of snorkelling or beach volleyball? Or head to the spa for an exotic Thai rejuvenating treatment. Enjoy international, seafood and Thai dishes at Chom Talay beachfront restaurant, plus there's plenty of local restaurants to try just a short walk away.

Terrible hotel, do not go near! They are unreliable, unresponsive, and treat their guests as a joke. We booked the GRAND ROYAL SUITE BEACHFRONT, but we didn’t receive what we reserved.

Terrible hotel, do not go near! They are unreliable, unresponsive, and treat their guests as a joke. We booked the GRAND ROYAL SUITE BEACHFRONT, but we didn’t receive what we reserved. We were given a side room with a view of the pool and constant noise. Since you can see the sea from the side, they consider it a “sea view,” ignoring the fact that it’s not the promised front beach front. We were not willing to stay at the hotel because they didn’t honor our reservation and gave us a different room. We had to endure pool noise, dining hall noise, and sunbeds for the central pool right outside our room. We left the hotel, and they refused to refund us, even though we paid the full price for 4 nights. We booked another hotel on the island. During one of our beach walks, we realized that other guests were staying in the room that was supposed to be ours, the one we paid for. We have video evidence of everything, with dates. This is outrageous and shows complete disregard for the customer’s money. On Instagram and their website, they advertise the beachfront room with specific photos, but you might not get what you saw online. They have three such rooms, two of which are truly beachfront, while the third is further back, with a very noisy pool view. In short, they wasted an entire day of our vacation. They didn’t give us the room on time, and when we wanted to leave, they delayed us. We had to find alternative accommodation for a couple with two children. Read less

The hotel and its surroundings are beautiful. 2 nice swimming pools and stairs to a an amazing beach. You can find squirrels on the trees branches and watch them go down from the trees and eat. Breakfast was great and the restaurant has a lovely sea view. The hotel staff was helpful and nice and it seems that the maintenance is very important to the staff. We had a lovely stay and would surely recommend this hotel to everyone. Read less

It made us wake up early in the morning, The staff was not very nice, in particular compared to other hotels we visited in Thailand. The maintenance is not high and the deck is not is a good condition. We had multiple power outages during the nights so the lights and the air condition was not working. Really low value for the money The good - breakfast was good. Read less
