SEA SUN Bed & Beyond

The room felt modern while still suiting the area, and the staff were really friendly. We enjoyed both dinner and breakfast with a lovely sea view. I have a peanut allergy, which can be uncommon in Thailand, but they were very accommodating and made me fresh pizza every evening. It was delicious.

The Wi-Fi was the one real problem for me. Except on my last day, it wouldn’t stay connected, so I burned through a lot of my own data. Otherwise, the place was great: clean facilities, a spotless pool, a beautiful water view, and a lovely sunset spot, at least in November when the sun sets on this side. My ensuite was super clean, the shower was good, and the room locker fit all my things. The front desk staff were friendly, the beds comfortable, and they provided both beach and room towels. It wasn’t social at all, most of the time I was the only one in my room, but I still really enjoyed staying here. It’s well placed between Fisherman’s Village and the Chaweng Beach area. A Grab bike usually cost me 70 baht each way. I’d definitely recommend it.

The rooms have a charming decor, and the pool is a nice extra. Nee welcomed us warmly on both of our stays, first for a night before Koh Tao and then again six days later. She was attentive and genuine, and made us feel at home. The included breakfast, though, was easy to skip. Being close to the airport is convenient, but planes pass right overhead late into the night and start again early in the morning. The room earplugs didn’t block the bass or vibrations. We also had road noise, especially in our second room, almost no water pressure, very little hot water, and rock-hard mattresses. In that second room, the AC blew straight onto us all night. With all of that, we slept poorly, which is a shame for a hotel.

My first trip to Samui was beautiful and memorable, thanks in large part to the staff. I had accidentally booked the wrong month, but when I explained at check-in, they coordinated immediately and did all they could so I could stay as planned. I really appreciate their kindness and effort. The accommodation was clean, private, and peaceful, even though I was in a shared dorm, and both the place and location suited me perfectly. It’s good value for money and has complete facilities. Everyone was kind, friendly, and helpful. I’ll definitely return. Thank you so much 🙏🏻😊
