Boyd Harvey Dale 2008-08-25	Chaweng Resort, Chaweng Beach definatley not what we expected. Made Reservations two months in advance for 2 Beachfront Bungalows but when we arrived only one was available. They reaccomidated us but still a big hassle. They need to reinvest some of the money they make back into the place. I think calling this place a resort is not exactly correct. One day several years ago it probably was . Will not reccomend this to anyone else and i will not rebook here again. Staff very good and friendly.	Booking service was good. Will use again. wish you guys would investigate the places your representing. The re not always what they seem to be.
Irina Bozhenova 2008-08-19	Chaweng Resort, Chaweng Beach The hotel is located on Chaweng Beach. As we spent the second part of our stay in Samui in B.B.Chaweng Resort in the other part of Chaweng, we could see the difference. Chaweng Resort location is very good: in the beginning of the main shopping street with its massage salons, shops and restaurants/bars. At the same time it is more quiet there even at night time. The cost of massage is 50 Bat less than northward. But the best advantage concerns the beach. Chaweng Resort has a very decent beach, well-kept and clean. In this part of the Chaweng the hotels are not so concentrated as northward. There are only few people on the beach at any day time. The chaise lounges stand on the territory of the hotel and we every time could find the vacant ones. Only one dog mooned around from time to time:) -in comparison with BB Chaweng Resort area, where sometimes up to four mongrels used to beachcomb. Beach pedlars pass by not very often carrying ice-cream, fruit, grilled chickens and catfishes, sometimes they offer henna tatoos or some shmatte. Unfortunately they don t sell seagood on the beach like in Pattaya (due to some problems they could have with seafood restaurants. We saw the similar problem on Phuket island). Only two jet boats were lied up away from the bathing area. These jetskis were used only in the evenings and did not bother us. The first day of our stay we had to live in the beachfront villa # 401 as our deluxe garden view was not available yet. We would rather stay there for the rest of the days: this number 401 is located just on the beach and a bit away from the main beachlife. There are two rooms in it: bedroom and living room. The floors are wooden. The bed is a king size really with a baldachin. The bed clothes is brown and orange. In the bedroom there is a big LCD TV with DVD player. In the living room there is a sofa, a table + chairs and a smaller TV. There is also an inroom electronic safe and an elecric kettle. The rooms are decorated in Thai Style - very nicely. The bath room is designed in a grotto style, with black mosaic on the walls and on the floor. The bathroom has a black bathtub with a flexible shower - it is very rarely present in Thai hotels. The sink is black too, as well as toilet bowl. The black sanitary porcelain was also in the deluxe garden view villa where we moved the next day. We were given a choice of three villas. They have different design outside and inside. We chose the one with flexible shower. The other two had only overhead one. But, to my opinion, these villas were lighter inside than the one we chose. I do not like darkness, and the dark wooden floor, dark wooden panels, dark marble tiles and black sanitary porcelain opressed me. But it is only my own point of view- I know people who may like this. The second minus of the hotel - you never know when the hot water appears and when it is over. The hot water supply is very unregular - but we saw the same problem in other Thai, Turkish and Egyptian hotels. But I think, this problem is not very big. There is no Russian TV channel on TV, and overall choice of channels is not wide (we could not watch Olimpic games duly). The staff of the hotel is very friendly and always ready to help. Breakfast starts at 6 A.M. and ends at 10 p.m. The food is good and the retaurant staff do not rush to withdraw the food exactly at 10 p.m. The atmosphere is very serene - my main impression from the hotel. Electrical interconnection is made so that one have to switch off all the electric appliances and illumination separately (in other hotels the electricity is switched off after you pull out the keys), but if you leave the house, you can leave the aircon switched on - very conveniently when you return from the heat to the cool room. There are also inroom safe and electric kettle in this type of villa. What else we should recommend for all bungalows in Thailand: do not leave bread and sweets on the table: ants will come very soon. Put it in the fridge, or throw in the bin outside the house (near the door). In spite of the small shortcomings we can recommend this hotel - good price for good accomodation. The good advice: the overall level of massage is lower than in Pattaya and Phuket, price 250 Bat for foot massage does not mean that it will be better than the same for 200 bat. In the Chaweng Resort area massage is cheaper. We can recommend to drop in the salon with white leather chairs and staff dressed in orange uniform (there is the only one in Chaweng like this) - the staff there is more experienced. Do not go to the Paragon massage salon: the staff is the young girls having no idea of the right massage. Dining advice: we often used to eat at the Crystal small restaurant located in the side-street leading to the main road. They have a wide choice of cources, serve very quickly at the reasonable prices.
Stefan Mickel 2008-07-31 until 2008-08-07	Chaweng Resort, Chaweng Beach Great location for the price though may need refurbishment as it was rather rundown. Clean place and staff are generally friendly. B fast was ok. The only problem is the toilet - I think there is problem with the sewage system as it tends to smell though the cleaners cleaned it everyday!	Excellent.
Mr. Michael David Beech 2008-07-27 until 2008-08-01	Chaweng Resort, Chaweng Beach We stay at the Chaweng Resort every year. It s right on the beach, has two small swimming pools, plenty of sunbeds and the breakfast is good. The rooms are spacious and clean. It is looking very tired now and could do with a lick of paint but that doesn t bother us. It s very reasonably priced and not in the noisy area. Great place to stay!	Excellent no hassle online
Colin Ellis 2008-05-20 until 2008-05-25	Chaweng Resort, Chaweng Beach My fourth visit to Samui, and second stay at Chaweng Resort and will stay there again, good rooms, staff and meals. Slightly out of the main tourist area with good transport access, right on the beach, staff very friendly and respond to any issues straight away, resonable rates and rooms.	Great booking service, very quick to respond and booking was a breeze, definately will use again.
Reinhard Richter 2008-03-15 until 2008-03-28	Chaweng Resort, Chaweng Beach We very often think of the nice stay at Chaweng Resort. Starting the day with a good breakfast enjoying the beautiful view from our bungalow terrace we liked resting in the clean pool area of the hotel. Thank you for the nice stay.	It was completely correct
Charmaine Sofia 2008-03-01 until 2008-03-10	Chaweng Resort, Chaweng Beach Our second stay at Chaweng Resort. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Lots of options for breakfast. Nice gardens, and areas around the two pools to relax. Not too far from the centre of Chaweng	Perfect
Kåre Kyllingstad 2008-02-26 until 2008-03-09	Chaweng Resort, Chaweng Beach Good location with beach at end of hotel area. Bungalows/rooms are not european standard, but all in all decent. No posh luxury, but for the price we didn t expect it either. Breakfast buffet was ok. A lot of trees and plants surrounding the bungalows made it look nice, but it also attracted alot of mosqitos. The hotel is located south on Chaweng beach, and the beach was quiet and not over crowded.	Exellent. Will use it when I go back to Thailand
Nikola Stojanovic 2008-02-26 until 2008-02-28	Chaweng Resort, Chaweng Beach Terrible expirience!!!!! Dont go there!!!! I payed for two nights but gone after first!! Its dirty and old and very depresive place. They stole my cell phone also!!! Never again!!!	Booking service was good.
