Context: Extended Family. 6 nights. 7 of us in all, including 2 toddlers (my Granddaughters). Our 2nd stay at the 2 Bedroom Beachfront Villa in SALA’s Oceanfront Wing. My eldest and his family stayed at an adjacent Oceanfront Pool Villa. We were lucky with the weather : sunshine throughout. We rarely return to a resort we’ve previously stayed in but SALA’s Chaweng Resort is an exception. Due to a lovely 1st stay, my family wanted to return since COVID restrictions eased. We weren’t disappointed with our 2nd stay: This is an adeptly managed resort. All staff know where their contribution fits in to the Resort’s smooth operation. GM Erwin has levered his Thai staff superbly well…. primarily by allowing them to be Thai and working to their strengths. Hospitality and focus on guest needs is outstanding. A few examples…. 1. Reservations: My PA, who can be demanding, arranged bookings with SALA’s Ms. Soraya. As she did for our previous reservation, Ms. Soraya delivered on all counts, ensuring all my family’s requests, some idiosyncratic, were delivered. If you are fortunate to interact with Ms. Soraya during your booking process, you’ll find her 100% dependable and focused on you. Ms. Soraya cares. 2. GM Erwin: Upon arrival, there were a couple of minor maintenance issues in one of the Villa rooms. GM Erwin came to see himself. Things were fixed quietly, promptly & reliably. But the point is GM Erwin cares for his guests and took a personal interest in efficiently dealing with this. GM Erwin is approachable, interacting with guests at the beach bar most evenings. 3. At breakfast, we were introduced to a trainee - Sun - a lovely young lady who has recently started on SALA’s wait staff. Sun is (rapidly) learning on the job but fortunate to be blessed with the innate kindness and hospitality skills that come with being Thai. My 2 Granddaughters warmed to Sun and her caring approach. It’s clear that GM Erwin & his Managers carefully select and develop their Thai staff - SALA’s guests are the beneficiaries. 4. Security is unobtrusive but “always there”. My family felt safe & secure. SALA’s property is in a prime location on Chaweng beach, ideal for a walk at any time. We loved our villas - housekeeping was flawless & daily pool cleaning was thorough. The oceanfront wing Front Desk is staffed by lovely ladies, who are always willing to help with requests. And for those with mobility impairments (but not wheelchair bound), as my beloved has, this resort works. We’ll be back for a 3rd Stay. All 7 of us. Thank you SALA Chaweng.

Dear Jon, We met upon arrival to discuss some constructive feedback as you mentioned, we separated on your last day as friends! Thank you for granting me some credit for this, but I believe the vast majority of credit goes to my amazing team, those that you mention as well as the un-sung heroes at the back of the house. Something you equally recognized during our chats, and rest assured I have shared your kind words with the entire team for positive encouragement and recognition! Knowing we will never be 100% perfect, we will continue to improve, from our side as well as based on our valued guests' feedback! We look forward to seeing you all again in the future. Warm regards, Erwin

We booked a triple room for a girls trip to Koh Samui and it was amazing. The architecture is gorgeous and having walked all along Chaweng Beach, our was def one of the nicest hotels in that area! The 2 swimming pools are perfect, one for relaxing and facing the beach otherwise a giant lap pool of that's more your thing. The had free kayaks to use and the good at 'the tent' was delicious and not the pricey like other 5-star hotels. The room was superb, bathroom was almost as big as the room and we loved the free water, tea, fruit and nuts they gave us each day. It was super easy to get a taxi or tuk tuk everywhere and walking distance to massages everyday and 7-eleven was across the road, for our daily supply of snacks and drinks! We will be back and would also recommend this highly to families!

Just returned back from an amazing 10 day holiday where we stayed at this lovely hotel. Basically, I cannot fault this hotel. The location is perfect, on the beach and only 5 min walk to the main hustle and bustle of bars and restaurants should you choose a party night out. The staff are very friendly and attentive, the hotel is well furnished and maintained, the rooms we had, a garden room with terrace, was amazing and well decorated and a large size. Just 10 mins from the airport and well located for trips to local tourist spots without having to endure long journeys.

We had a one bedroom ocean side suite with pool. Located on the 3rd floor, we had a nice view of the ocean. The suite was spacious, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed having our own pool overlooking the sea. Beautiful sunrises each day. Service is excellent here. Everyone was friendly and helpful. In particular the men at the front door were always engaging, helpful and friendly. The beach bar was nice and made very good drinks. The beach was clean and wide. Plenty of seating options. There are vendors that come by but they are not aggressive trying to sell you their goods. While the spa is nice, the massage there was not very good. Breakfast was not the best. There was a limited menu to supplement the buffet. You may order one item from the menu. The options didn’t change so became boring after a few days. Service, once again, was wonderful though. Overall, a fantastic property and we can’t wait to visit again.

Dear summersail, Thank you very much for your generally positive review, the team and I look forward to welcoming you back in due time for another relaxing and rewarding stay. Glad to read the team made it a great stay, will surely share with them. Bit surprised to read the breakfast feedback, as in fact the a la carte menu (please feel free to order 2 if you like!) has favorites as well as daily specials, will see how this was not clear to you, in case others feel the same. Please feel welcome to contact me if I can assist in any way for your next booking or perhaps provide more information on our unique group of hotel destinations.

The hotel and service is just great! Just lying there at the beach, getting cold drinks and lunch served whenever it suits you is amazing. Then returning to a clean well maintained 25 degree room (or colder if you like :-) for a shower, a sit down in the tub or some jumping in the private pool in the back yard. It was great!

Convenient location at quieter end of the beach. Bad luck that there had been an oil spill so water wasn’t great. Attentive staff. Standard room quite nice without being spectacular. Decent gym. Air con in room could be better. Check in and check out straight forward. Breakfast buffet a bit limited but the Açai bowl was very good.

First class service. Staff were friendly and efficient. Our room was thoroughly cleaned every day. Breakfast in sexy fish was excellent with lots of choice and freshly cooked option. Stunning beach facilities. Staff came round with frequent iced water and even offered to clean your sunglasses.
