This property seems to be 5* small resort, and while the staff is generally nice and polite, the true 5* professional behaviour is missing. I stayed in pool Villa, which is hardly a villa, but rather a nice room with plunge pool. The room had issue with the aircon, being very loud, and I did not have a good sleep on any of the 8 nights. Without the aircon on, the heat was difficult to manage. Staff offered me another villa with the same issue, or downgrade to signature room without pool (but with bathub on balcony) and slightly less noisy aircon. Aircon was very powerful and it would overcool the room despite being set to a reasonable 25 C. Not much difference if temp was set to 18 C. Apparently this is know issues and affects the whole resort. Aircon speed allowed only 2 settings, low and high, low being very noisy and for someone who sleeps light, I would recommend not to book this resort. Constant flow of water from the pool provided additional noise, which was not what I expected for the resort advertising itself as an oasis of peace. Both communal, and to even more extent, pool at villa, were too warm and there was little refreshment available. The hotel beach had shallow water, was warmer than a pool, and generally not very nice. Around the resort you could sense sewage or septic tank smell on most days. Pool at villa has small amount of algae that were not cleaned when I requested the pool to be cleaned.

The most beautiful hotel I’ve ever stayed in!!! From the moment you first walk in the door you can tell it’s a 5 star hotel and the 5 star service from the staff goes above and beyond. Everyone is so friendly and they can’t do enough for you. The whole hotel is absolutely gorgeous, lovely pool area, lovely breakfast and it is right on the beach! Plenty of restaurants around to go to if you don’t want to dine in the hotel as well.

The best hotel in Koh Samui. This is our second time staying at this beautiful resort. All the staff were so helpful and welcoming, the food was delicious and all areas spotlessly clean. We loved the addition of the hammock and extra seating by the beach this year. We would highly recommend this hotel for people with food allergies or intolerances. The catering staff were super careful and accommodating.

Having stayed at numerous hotels throughout Asia over the last 10 years, the U Hotel Group has a business plan and marketing strategy that must be the envy of its competitors, and no-where is this more evident than at the U Samui Hotel. From a range of modern and thoughtfully designed luxury accommodation to suit all budgets, tailored guest preferences offered at check-in, excellent staff training, an outstanding 6-star breakfast smorgasbord, impeccable house-keeping, and a wonderful pool and surrounding grounds, what is not to love? A special mention to 3 charming, friendly and attentive restaurant staff in particular who impressed us - ICE, BOBOE, and the very lovely CHI - all of whom made our stay at U Samui one that we will long remember. We would be grateful if management would please convey our appreciation to the restaurant staff we have mentioned (Chi, Ice and Boboe), and also Aum at Reception, during our check-in.. Thank you to everyone at U Samui, you have ticked every box imaginable.

I have only positive things to say about my stay at U Samui. The staff were so friendly and caring. Loved the buffet breakfast in the morning. The hotel was not too overwhelmingly huge. They really look after their guests and it shows. I will definitely stay at U Samui next time when we visit. The rooms were modern, housekeeping were tidying up everyday and the pool was just splendid plus the restaurant at the hotel was very cosy and lovely. Loved our stay!!

Great stay at U Samui and great value for money. The staff were very friendly and the rooms were welcoming and bright. It would have been nice to have been offered a drink (E.g. water when checking in) and when lounging around the pool it would have been nice if staff would come round and take orders instead of always going to the bar. However, the complimentary mocktail each day was a nice surprise. I would love to stay again and please don’t take those suggestions as negatives. The hotel and your staff were so friendly and welcoming. Would recommend!
