David James Barnett 2007-12-21 until 2008-01-05	Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach We stayed in the thai village opposite side of road next to the swimming pool. We definately recommend this great hotel with its 5 star service and accommodation to all who want real value for money. The food was outstanding and this being our tenth trip to Thailand ,we found Amari Palm Reef to be amongst the best stays in Koh Samui.	The booking was easy and quick and a good way to get a fast booking
Mindy lee shin 2007-05-12 until 2007-05-14	Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach Hotel was great, food was wonderful - very good, location was ideal, staff was very helpful. Only comment would be, would be nice if there was a gift shop onsite at the hotel for sundries, etc. Would recommend to anyone else and would go back!	Booking service was very smooth and reliable, communications was ample between booking service and myself. Everything was exactly as we had expected and requested!
Chris Ewin 2006-11-09 until 2006-11-12	Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach We had read good things about the Amari, so decided to try it out, having stayed at Nora s, the Chaweng Regent and Central Samui before. Arrival was effecient and friendly. The rooms were, however, adequate (and questionable value therefore)with very small bathrooms where one could hardly fit two people in in any comfort. The shower cubicle was small and cramped. When we arrived we also encountered problems opening and closing the room safe, resulting in having to call for assistance, the kettle needed replacing, and the TV stations had a scarcity of English language programmes compared to other hotels. That being said, the breakfasts were the best we had encountered in any of our previous hotel stays and the bar area was pleasantly decorated and a generous 3 hour happy hour would be welcome if one wanted it. The pools are pleasant but if you want a quieter time use the (bigger) one away from the beach (across the road), as the beachside pool is very heavily used by kids. Food is very good, and the Italian restaurant -Prego- is fantastic, as always.	Booking service, which we have used many times before, was very good. The car pick-up and drop-off arrangement was very efficient and good value.
Joan Wong 2006-09-29 until 2006-10-02	Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach Don t accept upgrade service, we booked superior room, it was so modern with bath in the picture; however the front desk officer offered the family room upgrade for us, it was not as good as superior, the decor was a bit old, no bath, shower room was very small; over all, the services of the hotel are excellent, everyone is simily & showing their happiness to meet you!
George Federman 2006-09-27 until 2006-10-03	Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach The Amari Palm Reef Resort is an absolutely wonderful resort. The room, which was a standard room, was nicely furnished, large enough for our needs, and quiet. The two pools were beautiful, and the grounds of the resort were lovely and well maintained. Breakfast is almost too much. If you can t find something you like, you re just not hungry! The beach is stunning, and the water is really nice. Bring your own snorkeling gear if you have it; you can see quite a number of small fish and crab on the coral about 100 meters off the shore. The only complaint, and it is very, very small, is that if you stay on the beach, the local vendors will come up to you with their goods on a pretty regular basis. This is not a big deal, but if you don t want to be bothered, you can put down your towel on the lounge chair on the hotel grounds just above the beach. Overall, I would rate this hotel a 5/5 stars.	No problems, no hassle. Just good service. Loved the ability to see the reviews of people that stayed in the hotels.
Judy Rule 2006-09-20 until 2006-09-23	Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach Beautiful facility. The rooms in the newer section at the back are very quiet and lovely. Breakfast is outstanding! I recommend this for a nice hotel.	Booking was smooth except hotel did not get notice from sawadee that I had changed my arrive flight.
Lon and Vanessa Alexander 2006-09-12 until 2006-09-26	Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach Transferred from Baan Chaweng as met up with friends at Amari Palm Reef for the 2nd half of our holiday. Amari Palm Reef is a spectacular resort, two large pools, lots of chairs to lie on and massive towels. It was situated down the end of Chaweng Beach, small walk to shops. Hardly ate anywhere else as the food was the best we have ever had! Did a 3 course set dinner offer for 1350 BHT ea and it was out of this world. 5 courses we could not finish AMAZING FOOD fine dining at such low cost, faultless!!!! Best food on Samui! Cocktail hour fantastic, 2 for 1 at 230 bht each, halve that and you can get drunk very quickly! Service faultless, staff very friendly. Cocktails expertly served and mixed. Lobster night ROCKED! Liked rooms better at Baan Chaweng (bigger and cheaper) but you have to weigh up what you prefer, Amari had great swimming pools. We staying in room 4114 which was ground floor right by pool. Friends stayed in upstairs superior room and had higher ceiling and sep shower to bath (ours was combined) nicer being upstairs to look over pool, but both very nice. Suggest you ask for room across road by 2nd pool, as we would retire there after spending day on beach, and by main pool. If not staying at Amari DEFINITELY eat there it was INCREDIBLE food, cannot say enough! Sell lovely essential oils at Sirvana spa, very cheap. Oh almost forgot BREAKFAST! Oh my god! Food like you ve never seen before!!! Beautiful, lovely resort would recommend to others.	Booking service faultless, easy to use, great f/up on emails, fast and efficient, feel confident to use this great service.
Duckworth 2006-07-14 until 2006-07-22	Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach Amari Palm is fantastic. The resort design and facilities are outstanding and the staff are just tremendously happy, helpful people. The breakfasts are a feast and are to die for and the restaurants are very good. Two wonderful swimming pools and a great location. The whole feel of the place runs rings around other options in Samui in this price bracket.	We had no problem - very efficient and we have now used it twice with good results.
David Black 2006-07-03 until 2006-07-15	Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach Just returned from a 12 day stay at the Amari and found it to be nothing less than superb. Its in a great location, far enough out of Chaweng to get some peace and quiet, and only a short walk or taxi ride to the mayhem of Ocean Road. The hotel itself is outstanding. In fact, I would say its probably the best hotel on the strip in Chaweng, the rooms and public areas are beautiful, there s a choice of 2 pools and the service was excellent. The food was good as well, a little bit more expensive than some of the beachside restaurants but I guess you get what you pay for. Would definetely return here in the future.
Roberta 2006-06-23 until 2006-06-29	Amari Palm Reef Resort, Chaweng Beach We had a great time. The hotel is beautiful and very clean. The people who work there are friendly and professional. The location is perfect. Close to the centre but less crowded and noisy than there. Simply perfect.	We had already used the service to go to Myanmar and to Puket. It s excellent.
