Maya Resort Samui - Family Resort Extra Hotels in Koh Samui

Maya Resort Samui - Family Resort Extra

"We booked this resort with the idea that it was suitable for children. That is indeed true: children up to about 4 or 5 years old. Not older. In the photos, the resort looks amazing. They deserve a medal for the photographer. It is a tiny resort; the rooms are old, dirty, and broken. The beds are bad. Housekeeping only comes every 3 days, and breakfast is poor. After a month-long tour of Thailand, this is by far the worst hotel we have stayed at. We decided that same evening to leave the next day. And of course, they have a cancellation policy, but it would be nice if they tried to accommodate their dissatisfied and misinformed guests (based on unrealistic photos, missing parts, etc.). But naturally, they didn't. Just pay 50% because, well, 'the cancellation policy'. Naturally, this kind of abysmal service is part of such a worthless hotel."

Baan Khao Hua Jook Hotels in Koh Samui

"Overall, I liked the hotel. The room was very beautiful and aesthetically pleasing – Pinterest vibes. I was a bit disappointed with the view from the window; one window faces a wall, but if you lie down on the bed, the view is nice. 😅 There are a lot of centipedes on the grounds. It's best not to leave sneakers outside; mine had one. As far as I remember, there was no hairdryer in the room. Also, a review on Google Maps scared me. Read it; it was posted recently. Someone broke into this hotel's room at night and stole 40,000 baht. After I saw that review, I checked in. I propped the door open with a nightstand and a chair, stayed up half the night, closed all the curtains, and turned on the TV for the night. The hotel grounds and the hotel are really easy for anyone to get into, but the door is flimsy and doesn't inspire confidence. But the room is very aesthetically pleasing. If you're not like me – a single woman traveling – then I think you could book this hotel to enjoy the aesthetics of the place. The pool is very cool."

"The hotel doesn't quite live up to a 5-star rating. However, it does have pleasant grounds, two pools, and a restaurant. The breakfasts are decent, with a good variety on offer, but they're rather uninspired and not particularly delicious. On the plus side, the coffee is good. The cocktails at the bar during the day were disappointing (we tried a Piña Colada once and weren't tempted to order another). A major highlight is the excellent direct beach access with sun loungers. The beach itself is fantastic. We were very pleased to see security on the beach who also helped set up umbrellas and arrange sun loungers. There's also a staff member with a first aid kit to treat cuts from corals – a very thoughtful touch (which we actually needed assistance with). Among the obvious drawbacks, the soundproofing in the rooms is extremely poor. We ended up with noisy neighbors who were also smoking ******** on their balcony (though it's legalized in Thailand). As a result, our room smelled terrible, and the noisy parties made it impossible for us to relax. On the bright side, when we reported this to reception, they immediately gave us a key to another room so we could get some much-needed sleep there, which we did. In terms of service, the hotel staff deserves a 5/5. Housekeeping and room comfort would get a 3/5 each, and breakfasts a 4/5. Overall, I'd give it a four out of five."

"Beautiful resort uphill. Beautiful pool and very spacious rooms. The view was amazing from the room, pool and restaurant. Breakfast was nice, not a lot of options but good and manageable. Staff is friendly and kind. You can only reach the resort by vehicle but there is a shuttle service which was very useful! it would be nice if there were more options and not just twice a day for each direction."
