Anantara Lawana Koh Samui Resort, Chaweng

This was our first visit to Ko Samui and we feel very fortunate to have selected the Anantara Lawana. It is a fabulous resort hotel in a magnificent setting with a wonderful beach and has a well deserved reputation for excellence. The staff without exception were friendly, attentive and efficient. We found it very relaxing and enjoyed the delightful weather. We dined overlooking the beach and enjoyed tasty dishes ranging from, Thai, Indian and European. We had a private dinner on the beach which was exceptionally well managed by the Ocean Kiss manager. Also theirTree Tops restaurant is well worth visiting. We recommend it highly and would have liked to stay longer.

Magnificent setting with a beautiful beach. Exceptionally friendly and efficient staff. Great dining experiences too.

We absolutely loved our stay at Anantara Koh Samui. We had a standard villa (accessible by stairs only), and the room itself, bathroom and balcony are very nice and generous in size. Room: beds are large and very good quality, with mosquito nets, there is a mini fridge, a coffee machine with pods replaced daily, and a kettle. Balcony: the ceiling fan is very useful, and there are some sort of 'shades' that protect from insects and offer some extra privacy. Bathroom: has a separate air-con unit. The villas are on a hillside, however there are plenty of golf buggies you can call to take you throughout the resort - in fairness we never used them as we preferred to walk (missing the daily dog walks!), and the path to the beach was so nice, mainly in the shade and always a gently breeze around. Beach very clean, water crystal clear; beach cleaned by staff throughout the day. Plenty of sun loungers with umbrellas, and free access to kayaks - quite nice to visit the beach of the small uninhabited island in front of the resort (beware on the island there might be broken glass,etc brought by the tide) . Breakfast: at Ocean Kiss restaurant on the beach, superb selection and fabulous views, plenty of choices for vegetarians, as well. Fresh juice, lovely coffee. We also had dinner here, the food was really nice and well presented, but a bit pricey for us, and we explored the restaurants outside the hotel, one of our favourites was Khao Kate, 1 min walk towards Chaweng. There is also a 7-Eleven and a Tops Daily supermarket about 7-10 min walk. Also there is a taxi rank opposite the hotel, they charged us 300 baht for getting to the airport. Next to the hotel there is Palette cafe, which is very nice. Staff: couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. Grounds: beautiful and well maintained. Luckily we didn't have issues with mosquitos, and there were no jelly fish whatsoever to be seen, so we could swim in the sea every day. Location: at the North end of Chaweng, it's more quiet, we loved it. The neighbours don't seem to look after their beaches so well, well done Anantara, you've created a small gem there! Fingers crossed we'll be back! And a small point about the airport: the departure is lovely, like a resort in its own right!

Il y a suffisamment de places sur la plage ou autour de la piscine. Les différents restaurant proposent une bonne qualité de nourriture. Le personnel est charmant, parle français.
