The hype
Guests love the staff and the beach, but consistently mention the property feels 'tired' and needs a refresh.
Sheraton Samui Resort
$130-220/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You want a quieter, family-friendly resort experience on a clean beach without the chaos (or price tag) of central Chaweng.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Direct access to Chaweng Noi Beach, one of the cleanest and quietest on the island
- Coco Scoop's breakfast buffet is consistently rated as spectacular
- Two distinct pool vibes: a quiet garden saltwater pool and a lively beachfront infinity pool
Kurzfassung: A solid, corporate-style resort that feels a bit like a Mediterranean village from 2010—comfortable and reliable, but showing its age in the details.
Bewertet von @wherenextfamily: I stayed here hoping for a break, and honestly, the balance is perfect. The kids were obsessed with their in-room camping setup, which gave me time to actually enjoy that incredible saltwater pool. It feels luxurious but totally unpretentious.
Was Gäste, die hier übernachtet haben, sagten
Reality check

- You prioritize a swimmable, clean beach over nightlife
- You are a Marriott Bonvoy member looking for reliable elite recognition

Sauberkeit & Instandhaltung
8.5
- Housekeeping: Diligent daily service. Staff are praised for creating towel art and keeping sand at bay.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean, but aging grout and sealant in showers can look grimy even when scrubbed.
- Maintenance: The weak point. Peeling paint on exteriors and worn decking around the pool are noticeable.
- Linens & towels: Standard Sheraton quality—crisp white linens, though pool towels can sometimes feel a bit well-used.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of fresh lemongrass; some ground floor rooms can have a faint musty/damp smell.

Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is the beach private?
Technically public, but the section in front of the hotel is well-maintained and feels semi-private with hotel loungers.
Is it walkable to town?
Not really. It's a dangerous walk along a busy road to central Chaweng. Take the hotel shuttle (small fee) or a Grab taxi.
How is the WiFi?
Free and generally reliable in rooms and public areas, good enough for streaming.
Is breakfast included?
Depends on your rate, but highly recommended. It costs ~THB 883 if purchased separately.
Are there elevators?
Only in the main lobby building. Most room blocks are accessible only by stairs or buggy.
Can I swim in the ocean?
Yes, Chaweng Noi has some of the clearest water on the island and is generally safe for swimming.
