Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Centara Villas Samui offers a tranquil escape with spacious villas, some featuring private pools, creating a perfect setting for relaxation. The plentiful breakfast is a great way to start the day, although a few guests have noted that the hotel's location may be best suited for those with a car to explore the island more freely. The resort's tiered layout, built into the hills, provides unique views but involves navigating many steps.

amazing experience at the villas!

free shuttleeaster sundayclean gardenlittle updating
I really enjoyed the free daily shuttle to 7/11. This was a great convenience! the team made easter sunday special with games and an egg hunt for the kids. it was appreciated that they went the extra mile. the gardens were well maintained and clean!
The hotel is older, so a little updating is needed. This did not take away from my time there, though i noticed it.

My beautiful ocean view king room included fresh towels daily. I was also given clean cups unless specifically requested. a tree shrew was inside the room on the first night due to holes in the window screens. the television worked well!
Facilities
9/10
The location is quiet. This was perfect for the first part of my trip to thailand, even though it's away from practically everything. the hotel cascades down a hill and ends on the beach with the pools. There were no sun-bed wars here! i loved the coral bar and reef cafe.

faulty air conditioningslow restaurant service
i was a bit disappointed . the air conditioning in my beautiful ocean view king wasn't working properly, so the room was often too warm for comfort. also, the restaurant service was quite slow. sometimes it took a very long time to get our food, even when the restaurant wasn't particularly busy, frustrating.
