Guest Reviews

• Tomáš (10/5): -
• Cathy (8/5): A lovely, quiet relaxing place to stay. - A beautiful 'old' colonial house set in lovely grounds. Easy access to Mae Nam shops, restaurants, bars and beach. Sikharin and his team at the villa were all incredibly helpful. The swimming pool was lovely, More air conditioning in the kitchen area and while it is self catering it's not set up for Western style cooking.
• Kate (4/5): Did not meet expectations based on photos - The pool - although it is shared and not very clean The pool table Spacious Nice furniture AC in bedrooms was good Good location There is construction work in the garden so we were unable to use the garden during our stay. We were only informed of this after querying it a week before our stay as we saw a previous negative review. By then it was too late to cancel as the booking was non refundable. The photos are clearly photoshopped as the reality is quite different! The house is in desperate need of some maintenance, for example there are lots of broken tiles, holes in the floor, leaks etc. The cleanliness is not up to expectations, for example cockroaches in kitchen, dead insects in rooms/bathrooms, duvets were yellow from stains. The lighting needs improving as it is very dark and dreary inside. The owner was responsive up until we told him the accommodation wasn’t up to expectations and then he never replied to our message and has refused (through booking.com) to offer any compensation.
• Caroline (8/5): Memorable and enjoyable stay - Spacious Decor a bit tired
• Sabine (10/5): Traumurlaub - besser geht’s kaum - Das Haus ist sehr großzügig geschnitten, genug Platz für alle. Super netter Kontakt zum Besitzer. Sobald wir eine Frage oder Problem hatten, kam innerhalb kürzester Zeit eine Antwort bzw. Lösung. Das Haus liegt ruhig inmitten eines schönen gepflegten tropischen Gartens. Trotzdem hat man fußläufig Geschäfte, Restaurants, Massagen, etc. In Reichweite. Auch zum Strand sind es nur 5 Minuten zu Fuß. Alles perfekt
• Dirk Finger (8/5): Ein sehr schöner, ruhiger und erholsamer Aufenthalt. Gerne wieder. - Eine Villa im alten Stil, so wie man sich eben eine Kolonial Vila vorstellt. Rustikal in dunklem Holz gehalten. Sehr schönes Interieur mit Charme und Geschichte. Viel Platz, geräumige Zimmer mit schönen, rustikalen Holzschränken und Betten. Die Matratzen sind modern und super bequem. Die Küche hat einen modernen Standard mit grossem Kühlschrank & Gefrierabteil. Alle Zimmer sind mit modernen Klimaanlagen ausgestattet und es hat überall Fliegengitter. Die Aufteilung & Verteilung der 3 Badezimmer (eines neben der Küche, eines im 1 OG und eines beim Balkon im Aussenbereich des 1.OG) ist etwas speziell aber durchaus praktisch. Die Eigentümer und die Ansprechpersonen vor Ort sind gut erreichbar, total nett und hilfsbereit. Bei uns (3 Wochen Aufenthalt) wurde auf Nachfrage geputzt und die Tücher gewechselt, von denen gibt es reichlich für's Bad und Strand. Die zentrale Lage der Villa - 3 Minuten zum Foodmarket, Restaurants und Massage und 8 min zum Strand - macht sie sehr attraktiv. Mit dem grossen Garten gibt es auch eine gewisse Privatspäher auch wenn es noch 2 weitere Villen auf dem grossen Gelände hat. Es hat auch eine schönen, sauberen Pool und ein Waschhaus mit modernen Waschmaschinen und Trockner. Fazit: alles in allem ein sehr schöne, gemütliche Location, wenn man nicht auf hochmodernes 5+ Sterne und Betondesign Niveau aus ist. Es gab für uns nichts, was uns nicht gefallen hat oder grossartig gestört hätte. Die Villa ist aber sicher NICHT für Gäste geeignet welche: - ein hochmodernes 5+ Sterne und Betondesign Niveau erwarten - ein Problem mit knarrenden Holz Böden, Türen und einfachen Fenstern haben - Duschvorhänge vermissen - nächtliche Tiergeräusche wie Froschquaken nicht vertragen Wie gesagt: uns hat das nicht gestört, es verleiht dem Ganzen eine unverwechselbaren Charm.
• Riwan (9/5): - Grande maison, qui aurait besoin d'un rafraîchissement. Belle piscine à partager. Super quartier l'un des meilleurs et des plus calmes. Présence de tout le nécessaire, à 3 min à pied de super plage. Besoin de rafraîchissement. Climatiseur sallon à changer.
• THERESA (10/5): A perfect holiday! - We were a family of six, from 20yrs to 60yrs. The large house was perfect for our needs, with plenty of space for us all, including a desk area for my daughter to use to teach online. The air-conditioning was wonderful in the bedrooms, but personally, being someone who suffers in the heat, I would have liked to have an extra air-conditioning unit downstairs, but it was manageable with the fan. The house itself is cooler than many though, as there are lots of trees, giving a lovely shaded area on the balcony and patio. The three bathrooms were useful with so many of us. One of these was located upstairs, on the outdoor balcony. The pool was wonderful, and relatively quiet, and we often had it to ourselves. The house was in a quiet area, but with just three minutes walk to the main road, which delighted our 20yr old, who would wander up there, and walk another three minutes up to the beach, or hail a songthaiew (Thai shared open back taxi), or motorbike taxi from grab app (cheaper than a regular taxi), to anywhere around the island. The grounds were very well kept, with a gardener on site every day. Nhing was also on site every day, and very helpful, and she did a wonderful cleaning job once a week. We had an occasion where we lost power and had to call Ann at 11pm, and even then she had someone there almost immediately. I had been unwell at the airport on our way out, and my husband and I had to fly two days later than planned. I messaged Sikarin and he arranged to have our adult children picked up from the airport and help them on arrival to the house, and offered to have us picked up two days later. He also informed us of a nurse next door if we needed any assistance during our stay. My son has severe food allergies, and Sikarin helped us with translating an allergy form to carry with us to restaraunts. He also recommended restaurants. We ate at many restaurants around the island, but mostly at Kai's at the end of the road. It's difficult to write what we didn't like, as we loved it all! Perhaps if I had to pick an improvement that would be useful it would be to have an air-conditioning unit by the long table at the end of the kitchen. We gathered here a lot and I'm not great with the heat, but the big fan provided definitely helped. There is an air-conditioning unit in the lounge are, but it is a large area downstairs, and difficult to keep cool with one unit. I have to say though, that even with my inability to cope with the heat well, we absolutely loved it here!
• Tullikat (9/5): Lovely Island Vacation Home by the Sea - It was quite spacious , comfortable house perfect for family stay, location was good, beach walking distance , quite peaceful. Even Kitchen has all modern amenities, felt like home. Everything was great! However, adding more lighting would be beneficial, as cooking at night is a bit challenging due to the low light.
• Elaine (10/5): A beautiful old fashioned Thai Colonial residence with all mod cons - I have no complaints. Everything about Baan Khun Nang exceeded expectations. The children loved the pool. The staff were super friendly and very helpful. We had such a good time that we’ve booked again.
• Lindsey (8/5): Very good -
• Jamie (10/5): Fantastic colonial style house, with pool, garden and pool table. Loved it will be back - Really enjoyed our 4 week stay here. The place is lovely, spacious, tidy, just as described. Check in was easy with clear instructions from the owner. The pool was fantastic kids swam every single day, the american style pool table was great, the lawns etc were maintained daily by a hardworking team, weekly cleaning etc was great and the lady manager was amazing and on site daily to help with any questions. Overall it's a lovely style house, great AC, great pool and we hope to be back again next year. There are not any negatives that impacted our stay.
• Brendan (9/5): Fantastic comfortable house in a great location - I had a fantastic stay here with my family, we loved having a large Thai house and garden all to ourselves for a few days. The house is old but very comfortable with modern TV set up and air conditioning. The location is great, 2 mins walk to the main road in Maenam. Communication with our host, Sikarin was excellent and the housekeeper and gardener do a great job. The shared swimming pool is small but nice to have it in the garden and it was a real bonus to find a pool table in the house, I didn't see that in the photos. Overall, I would highly recommend this house.
• Asli (9/5): Fantastic - It’s a traditional Thai house with a huge garden that is walking distance to beach and nice restaurants.
• Mr. (10/5): Historic Mansion On Samui - It's a rare chance to be able to stay in a historic colonial mansion. We had a fantastic time. Yes, the house is older, but it's very well maintained, making the age of the house an exciting experience and not a negative thing. And when there is a need for maintenance, the hosts are on top of it. Full kitchen, three bathrooms, washing machine, A/C in all rooms, swimming pool, huge smart tv and even a pool table. The vintage furniture only added to the positive experience. Nhing is awesome, hardworking and skilled in just about anything that needs to be done. And after she does housekeeping it's like walking into a new jouse again. Oh, yes, there's weekly housekeeping, new towels, bedding, cleaning - amazing. We absolutely loved our three weeks at Baan Khun Nang.
• Steven (10/5): Exceptional -
• Roman (10/5): A month well spent - Older beautiful villa with a huge garden and a new pool. Ideal for a big family or group of friends. Great location, close to the beach, restaurants and shops. The big house has a great clima and AC was not needed during the nights, with windows open. The garden is home to a lot of birds and squirrels that play in the trees. For a bigger group its great value for a small price. I highly recommend. Special thanks goes to the host - Sikarin, who was always there to help and support.
