Maria Athanassiadou 2008-05-04 until 2008-05-13	Buri Rasa Village, Chaweng Beach Wonderful small boutique hotel with excellent staff. However , the Green Olive rest. is very pricy for Thailand and the menu offered is lacking in inspiration. Perhaps management should consider a new , Thai national , Chef. Location on Chaweng is not too loud considering the Bars in the area , but mosquitoes may be a problem for some guests. Rooms are tasteful and clean. EXCELLENT BED. EXCELLENT POOL.	No problems at all. Recommended.
Peter Bishop 2008-04-09 until 2008-04-19	Buri Rasa Village, Chaweng Beach We just spent 10 days at the Buri Rasa Village. Between 8am and 5pm we experienced some noise from the adjacent building site. However we booked expecting this and received a discount price. Whilst the nose was audible in our room Rm17 the noise was not audible on the beach front, or from the pool and bar area. The hotel is well situated on Chewang beach. The rooms are very nice and the beds very comfortable. The service at this hotel is second to none. Nothing is to much trouble. The breakfast is good, the coffee whilst not great exceeded my expectations for Koh Samui. The Green Olive Restaurant is a little expensive by Koh Samui standards but the food is excellent. Across the road is Ninja Crepes for a cheap alternative and the food whilst not in the same class as the hotel is a still very good. I also recommend going on an island kayaking and snorkelling tour, and I highly recommend the Blue Star Operator. All in all I would have not problem recommending the Buri Rasa to anybody. Our stay was wonderful and once again the staff are fantastic nothing is too much trouble.	excellent.
Maarit Nasi 2008-03-25 until 2008-03-31	Buri Rasa Village, Chaweng Beach Very nice small (only 32 rooms) hotel in a good location on Chaweng Beach. It s not in the middle of the lively night club area instead bit more south which makes it nice and peaceful. The beach is not grouded there and it s quite clean. There is a construcion work next to it so you should request the room on the other side since the work starts at 7am! The service is very nice and the breakfast is great. The pool is very small and it s almost impossible to swim there if there is more than 1 person in it. The spa is beautiful but quite pricey but there is plenty of massage shops and restaurants on the Chaweng Beach Road right outside the Buri Rasa. The best things on my opinion are the location, rooms and breakfast!
SUN Lijun 2008-03-09 until 2008-03-14	Buri Rasa Village, Chaweng Beach Hotel is well designed, giving a feeling of in a small village. And Delux with a dip pool room is highly recommended for family with kids. There is a garten, so kids can play in the garten. But beach is a bit dirty.
Michelle Burke 2007-10-20 until 2007-10-31	Buri Rasa Village, Chaweng Beach Excellent. Service absolutely fantastic, could not fault it. Nothing ever a too much for the staff. Resort not too big and very personal. Rooms (Deluxe balcony) Beautiful. Lovely finishings and very well serviced. Also very spacious. Restaurant expensive but Ian the chef very enthusiastic and always around to help with your choices. Happy hour at bar fun and the bar persons know how to make great cocktails. All in All highly recommended - will go back again!	Very quick to respond to reservations and ensured rooms next to our friends. Happy with their service.
John Deknatel 2007-09-17 until 2007-09-21	Buri Rasa Village, Chaweng Beach Fabulous hotel, worth every penny we paid for the rooms. Great location, unbelievable service and superb hospitality. We chose the rooms with the private dipping pool which I would highly recommend. Impressive breakfast offering and wonderful service everywhere. For a fantastic beach massage check out the massage facility just beside the hotel beach (south I believe). The hotel recommends Timmy tailor just a couple of 100 meters (600 feet or so)north of the hotel (turn right as you leave the hotel) and we too thought that he offered great product. Tell him that you heard about him from his Canadian customers! For exceptional inexpensive food try the 24 hour restaurant right across the hotel. Place doesn t look great but don t let that fool you.	Sawadee.com is by far the best booking agency I have dealt with. We vgot exactly what was advertised without any hassles or problems.
KEVIN FERGUSON 2007-09-13 until 2007-09-17	Buri Rasa Village, Chaweng Beach We booked 2 standard rooms. Rooms are ample in size and nicely decorated. Road noise was not a problem in our rooms though ours were closet to the lobby. Good beach location. Service was very good property wide, though they could improve their beach and poolside bar service and likely achieve more sales. Breakfast buffet on the light side, but ample and had my favorite; smoked salmon! Would certainly recommend this place to anyone. Only wish they had had rooms to extend our stay. BTW, Sawasee offered room pricing discounts that hotel would not match with direct inquiry.	Good website with honest customer feedback. Better pricing than property websites. Easy booking, payment, and fast confirmation.
Ingrid Henein-Hanke 2007-09-11 until 2007-09-22	Buri Rasa Village, Chaweng Beach Buri Rasa is a very beautiful resort. It is nestled in the middle of Chaweng Beach- but very quiet inside the resort. When you like to have the full action you have only to leave the resort and you are in the big Chaweng Road with all the shops, restaurants and entertainment.The stuff is absolutely the best we have ever met in Thailand. The deluxeroom we booked was very nice, big enough and clean. We will stay there next year again.	All was perfect. Thank you Sawadee
John K 2007-07-01 until 2007-07-04	Buri Rasa Village, Chaweng Beach The hotel was fairly decent, but overpriced in our opinion. For those of you considering this place, here s what you can expect. When we first reached the hotel, we were a bit nervous because it looked a little dumpy. For the price we were paying, I expected more. We checked into the room (Junior deluxe) and found the room to be quite small. The mattress sits quite low to the ground and has the mosquito net around it - a bit daunting to think we would have to be very carful with mosquito bites. The grounds are all lush with plants so mosquitos will always be there. Be sure to bring and use your mosquito repellent. The bathroom was OK - good size - but with a large wasted space that had a small ladder, a large bucket with water filled from a rustic looking tap. I guess it s just there for looks, but the space could be better used by making the room bigger. The wifi access in the room was flawless - this was important to us. The beach was well kept and clean and service on the beach was good. If you want chairs on the beach, it would be a good idea to reserve a couple before going to breakfast. They will hold it for you so you don t have to worry about not getting chairs on the beach. Don t expect much for breakfast. It s decent with fresh eggs cooked to order and a few buffet dishes (fried rice, noodles, potatos, sweet breads, juices etc.)Pretty basic stuff, but adequate. All in all, I would say it was expensive for what you get (we paid 6600Bhat - 4 nights get one free, so the average cost was about US$158 per night. Another important note - the staff was very good and accomodating - very important to us. Apart from breakfast we did not eat at the hotel. The restaurants did not look good to us. The beach bar was closed for renovations. We stayed at the Central beach resort the last time around, for about the same price. It s a bigger hotel and has all the trappings of a luxury resort. I wanted to try something different this time, but truth be told, we will probably stay at the Central next time as I prefer the luxury of that kind of hotel, not to mention the large variety for breakfast and lots of bars and restaurants on the grounds itself.	No issues
Chan ka man 2007-06-24 until 2007-06-27	Buri Rasa Village, Chaweng Beach Good location and nicely decorated. It justifies the cost I paied.	Thanks Sawadee.com for prompt reply and efficient confirmation of room vacancy
