Very good resort with big bungalows, great pool. Service is good (housekeeping, transfer, breakfast...). Best choice in the Fisherman village. 
Fast and efficient. Highly recommended

Our feedback on this resort is positive. (we extended our stay after we saw the room and facilities). It is next to the Fishermen s village, so near all the restaurants and services. 
Easy to use and reliable.

Excellent value for money for a family of four. Paid approx 60 Euros for family terrace bungalow (room SM11 situated at end of hotel property) inc two bathrooms, three bedrooms. Down side was noise from nearby bar from midnight to 0230 most nights and noise from neighbours. After 10 days, moved to two attached bungalows but with no interconnecting door and negotiated the rate. Could hear our children loud and clear which was fine but would have been annoying if they weren t ours! Ask for T1 and T2 or T3 and T4 if you want this set up. Showers not great in all the bungalows we stayed in but I think that s the same all over Thailand unless you pay for 5 star. Staff not overly friendly but warmed up during our second week. Owners ignore everyone and never say hello! Breakfast good. Having two pools to choose from was great and never had a problem getting a sunbed. Large pool is warm. To order poolside drinks or food you have to cross small road; shame the waiter doesnt walk around from time to time to ask. Gardens beautiful. No massage in hotel but just opposite on beach (cost 5 Euros). You have to walk 10 mins to main road to catch a pickup as they dont come into village. Have stayed in Bophut three times and feel atmosphere is cooler if you stay directly on beach, even if you have to walk back along beach from village at night. I recommend the Frog & Ghecko, just opposite Smile House, for a friendly welcome, food, drinks, 70 s music and their famous Wednesday pub quiz. 
Very good. Quick and efficient. Thank you.

Fantastic! Friendly, helpful staff and lovely bungalows dotted around 2 pools. Shady walkways with well-kept grounds. Great restaurant on the beach with Thai and Western style food, and a separate bar. On the edge of Fishermans village - perfect. Would definitely stay here again, we loved it. 
Easy, efficient, hassle-free.

Not bad, lacks a bit of character and looks somehow oldish but it s clean and located near the beach, which isn t great but it s OK. Buffet-style breakfast, very nice restaurant on the beach. The staff isn t very friendly (nor unfriendly, note). 
No probs.

Wow what a lovely place to stay. Thankyou to all the staff at smile house. We booked a superior bungalow for 2 days and then extended our stay for a further 11 days! The bungalow we stayed in were in excellent all round condition with good air conditioning and were cleaned well every day. The soroundings were beutifull with daily gardeners keeping the grounds just perfect. There are 2 swimming pools and the smile house restaurant for breakfast is on the beach. Evening meals are very good also and good value. We found all of the staff very friendly and helpful. You can possably find cheaper accomodation elsewhere but we found smile house good all round value for money. If you dont want a busy tourist area like chawang but still would like a nice selection of restaurants, village shops and bars with local boat trips to ko phangan etc. this place is worth a try. We would recommend this place to anyone. A++++  
Very good service. No problems with booking at all. Thanks to everyone with Sawadee.com

We arrived Smile House 10 July and stayed for 14 days. We are very happy for our stay at Smile House, we had the family bungalow with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathroom, it was a very nice and big bungalow. It was a very cosy area in the garden and with the swimming pool. The food was very nice and the staff were very kindly and helpsom. Smile House is located on a nice, quite place. Much more relaxing than Chaweng. The beach was nice, but the water is not so clear that Chaweng Beach. If we come back to Koh Samui we will stay at Smile House. 
Very good. Will use Sawadee next time also.

Our family just returned from an 8 night stay in a 2 bedroom chalet at the Smile House resort and loved every moment of our stay! The rooms were large and roomy with plenty of storage and closet space. The bathrooms are stocked with nice amenities and there is a fully stocked mini bar. The mini bar prices are reasonable, but we found the small market 2 doors down and the 7-eleven just down the road to be very cheap (2 liters of water and 4 cans of soda for US$2.78) so we just took out theirs (which are marked with their stamp) and put in ours. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and perfectly manicured with a pool towards the back of the property and an infinity-style pool at the front of the property. Crossing a small street (more the size of an alley way) is the lovely Smile house restaurant which overlooks the ocean and offers a wonderful buffet breakfast. The service was excellent and the reception assisted us in booking the best day trips. Many companies do not accept credit cards so it was nice that we could book excursions and charge to our room and then pay with our credit card at checkout. Check in and check out took only moments which is nice compared to some hotels which feel the need to take forever in finding your room information. We will definitely come back again in the future. Bophut Beach is excellent for families with children and teenagers as it s not a party area and is extremely safe to walk about anytime with no moon parties to worry about. Easy access to other beaches, sites and day excursions and plenty of restaurants and shopping.  
Excellent and very easy. Absolutely no problems at check in upon arrival. Our room was ready by 11am.
