The hype
Travelers love the serene atmosphere and friendly staff, often describing it as a 'sanctuary' compared to other Samui resorts.
Renaissance Koh Samui Resort & Spa
$130-250 / شب
این را رزرو کنید اگر You want a lush, boutique-style hideaway that feels like a secret garden, away from the Chaweng chaos but still accessible via shuttle.
چرا مردم آن را دوست دارند
- The 'secret garden' vibe with lush landscaping and hidden pathways
- Two distinct pool vibes: a quiet beachfront infinity pool and a massive 50m lap pool
- Excellent breakfast buffet at Banana Leaf with a mix of Thai and Western options
نکته سریع: A peaceful, aging beauty that trades modern sleekness for tropical charm, but requires a taxi or shuttle to get anywhere interesting.
بررسی شده توسط @Kipermanpic: I stayed in a private villa here and it was unreal. Having my own pool for a floating breakfast was the highlight, and the sunset dinner by the beach was so romantic. If you want luxury that feels hidden away in nature, this is the place.
مهمانانی که اینجا ماندند میگویند
Reality check
The isolation is real—you are captive to the hotel's dining or the shuttle schedule unless you rent a scooter or take taxis.
- You prefer reading a book by a quiet pool over beach parties
- You appreciate lush, mature tropical gardens over concrete minimalism
- You are a Marriott Bonvoy member looking for good value redemption
تمیزی و نگهداری
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable, though some guests report missed spots or inconsistent timing.
- Bathroom hygiene: Clean, but older grout and tiles can show age-related wear.
- Maintenance: Good overall, but expect some wear and tear on wood furniture and outdoor decking.
- Linens & towels: Fresh and high quality, typical of the Renaissance brand.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of fresh lemongrass; rooms can be slightly musty if AC isn't running due to humidity.

سؤالات متداول و نکات پنهان
تمام آنچه قبل از رزرو واقعاً میخواهید بدانید
Is the beach swimmable?
Barely. It's very shallow, rocky, and affected by tides. Great for kayaking (free) or looking at, but not for swimming laps.
Is there a resort fee?
No specific daily resort fee, but a 10% service charge and 7% tax are added to all bills.
How far is the airport?
About a 20-30 minute drive depending on traffic.
Are the rooms dated?
Yes, the decor is 'classic Thai' (dark wood, older tile) rather than modern chic, but generally well-maintained.
Can I walk to restaurants?
Not easily. The immediate area is residential/resort-heavy. You'll likely need a taxi or shuttle to reach Lamai center (10 mins away).
Is it good for families?
Yes, despite the 'quiet' vibe, there is a kids' pool area and the staff are very welcoming to children.
نکات درونی

The 50-meter lap pool on the hill side is often completely empty compared to the beachfront pool.

Happy Hour at the pool bar offers decent 2-for-1 deals; grab a drink and watch the sunset.

Ask the 'Navigator' (concierge) for a tide table so you know when the beach looks its best.
5 نکتهای که باید قبل از رفتن بدانید
💡The 'whirlpool' on the Deluxe Room balconies is huge—basically a mini plunge pool.
💡You have to cross a public road (via bridge or crosswalk) to get from the lobby to the standard rooms.
💡The spa (Quan Spa) is architecturally stunning and often runs promotions that are cheaper than the menu price.
💡Room service prices are high, but portions are generous.
💡The vegetation is so dense that some 'Garden View' villas feel a bit dark inside.
