Amari Koh Samui

Philipp Siemes

The staff were genuinely friendly throughout my stay, and the breakfast was actually quite good. The pillows were also some of the most comfortable I’ve had in a hotel for a long time. That being said, the room itself had several issues that I simply wouldn’t expect from a 5-star hotel, especially at around 7,500 THB for two nights. I was staying in a ground floor room, and privacy was far from ideal. People were constantly walking past and could easily look into the room, which made it difficult to feel comfortable. The balcony was full of mosquitoes, and I also found cockroaches inside the room. The hotel should really consider carrying out a proper pest control treatment, as this is not something guests should be dealing with. The biggest issue for me was the air conditioning. The automatic mode kept switching on and off throughout the night, and every time it did, it was loud enough to wake me up. I barely slept during my first night because of it. Another thing that stood out was the bathroom. The bum gun next to the toilet had almost no water pressure at all. This is not a hidden defect or something difficult to notice. Anyone cleaning the bathroom on a daily basis should immediately realise that it is barely working. It made me wonder how regularly rooms are being checked before guests arrive. Overall, the staff were great and the breakfast was enjoyable, but the room quality, maintenance issues, and pest problems fell well below what I would expect from a hotel advertising itself as a 5-star property.

The experience was awesome! The property is amazing and very welcoming. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and well-maintained. The buffet breakfast was excellent, with a wide variety of options, including plenty of Indian dishes. The pool is beautiful and well-kept, making it a great place to relax. Overall, it was a wonderful stay, and I would highly recommend this property.

If you want to stay right in the middle of the action yet wake up to pure beachfront bliss, Amari Koh Samui is hard to beat. Located in the heart of Chaweng Beach, you’re steps away from the vibrant, bustling energy of Chaweng — restaurants, nightlife, shopping — all within easy reach. But the real star of the show? The private beach. And I say this confidently: it’s arguably the best stretch of sand in the entire Chaweng area. The sand is powdery, the water is clear and calm, and the beachfront setting feels exclusive and beautifully maintained. The sunbeds and beachside seating area are perfect for long, lazy afternoons, and the beachfront bar makes sunset time something to look forward to every day. The arrival experience sets the tone immediately. The lobby is open, airy, and filled with natural daylight. As you walk in, you’re greeted by a sweeping view of the ocean — that instant “I’m officially on holiday” moment. Dining is another highlight. Prego is widely regarded as one of the best Italian restaurants on the island — authentic flavors, excellent pasta, and a lively atmosphere. Amaya Café, the all-day dining venue, offers an impressive international spread, including strong Indian and vegetarian options. Overall, Amari Samui delivers that perfect balance of location, beach quality, dining, and atmosphere. It was truly one of the most memorable holiday experiences we’ve had in Samui.

Great hotel for both adults and families. Three wonderful pools and the staff ever so curtiouse. Restaurant Prego Italian is wonderful and there are many other restaurants nearby. One thing I think the hotel needs to do is advise indian tourist from India is to preserve some etiquette by not wearing pyjamas at breakfast....so not pleasant for others. ....and before anyone says anything I'm indian myself but from the UK.

Been the first time in Koh Samui and also the first time at Amari. Overall a great stay with good breakfast, different pools, and lots of things to do around the hotel. Hotel itself a bit quiet in the evening but saw they also offer brunch and bbq on some days and some staff said its due to low season now. Loved the Italian restaurant on the opposite side of the hotel. Hope to be back one day.
