The Lamai Samui - Formerly Le Meridien Koh Samui Resort & Spa Reviews

At first glance, the price seems like a great deal for a villa. However, after checking in, it became clear that the lower cost comes with compromises in detail. The soundproofing is a major issue—not just from the adjacent bathrooms, but from the entire space. Conversations and noises from the hallway are loud and clear, creating an overall lack of privacy and comfort. The staff are friendly, but their performance needs improvement. In particular, the front desk could communicate more effectively, as unclear information led to confusion. This place might suit budget-conscious travelers, but those seeking a quieter and more refined experience should consider other options.

This hotel provided a perfect getaway! The room was pristine, the views were stunning, and the staff made us feel at home. Highly recommended for couples looking to relax

We arrived to this hotel thinking it would be a five star resort (as it stated on the website). However, this was at most a 3*. The pictures online are very different to what it looks like in real life (worn and torn). It felt like I was deceived. The hotel lacks a lot love and hasn’t been taken care of in an extremely long time (I assume since it was Le Meridian). I don’t recommend a stay here until it has been refurbished. For the price, I’d expect much more. The staff however are lovely and Fonny was amazing! Even when I checked out a day early, she did her best to make me try and stay.

very friendly, great breakfast, comfy toom and great shower can look up to the sky

Great hotel and great service. It is a long walk to Lamai and next time I would choose a resort closer to

I’ve stayed at several hotels in Samui and am of the opinion that this is the best stay for the price. I really have zero complaints. Great service, healthy breakfast, beautiful scenery, clean and quiet rooms.

This was a lovely place to stay during our 9 night stay in Koh Samui. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The hotel was peaceful, with there always being plenty of space in the restaurant, bar and round the pool or in the garden area. The buffet breakfast was amazing, with lots of choices of types of dishes. Similarly, lunch and evening dining here is also good, if, maybe, a little more costly than if you were to venture out into the resort. There are a few good places within walking distance and many others a short taxi ride into Lamai proper. We definitely recommend trying a treatment in the Spa - we tried a traditional Thai massage, which was reasonably priced and very therapeutic. The beach was lovely and quiet. The sea, blissfully warm, although the water remained pretty shallow for some way out….not a criticism however, as it was perfectly deep enough to swim. The staff were super-helpful and friendly and definitely reinforced the Thai reputation of being ‘the Land of Smiles’. I would absolutely recommend this hotel for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Lovely staff, beautiful views. Great breakfast, we would love to go back!

you just dont want to leave

The stuff are super friendly, really good vibes there!!!

Not bad

Nice resort, breakfast can be a bit improve but it’s already nice. Very friendly and helpful

The hotel is very clean and very nice The staff are very nice and friendly But the beach is not clean

The hotel is good, with an independent beach. The service is good, but the location is a bit remote! The hotel room is clean, a small hotel, and there are few choices for breakfast. It is suitable for enjoying the sun and the beach!
