The hotel

Located on the northern end of Samui’s breathtaking Chaweng Beach, the Amari Koh Samui is a relaxed yet elegant resort, perfect for couples and families alike, featuring contemporary Thai style buildings set either along the ocean or within lush tropical gardens. Guests can enjoy the in-house dive centre for exploring the underwater world, or simply unwind by one of the three beautiful swimming pools—one overlooking the sea, another at the heart of the Thai Village, and the newest in the Garden Wing. There's also a separate children’s pool, where kids can splash around while parents relax in the jacuzzi. For those looking to maintain their fitness routine, the fully equipped gym offers plenty of exercise options. For a more indulgent experience, Breeze Spa provides the ultimate pampering with soothing massages. Dining at Amari is a treat, with the signature all-day restaurant serving a variety of Asian and International dishes paired with stunning sea views. For gourmet Italian cuisine, Prego is the go-to spot, and Amaya Bar is perfect for enjoying sunset cocktails.

Second time we have been here within a year. Location is just on the outskirts of main area of town just a 10-15 minute walk away. Rooms are spacious and comfy king size beds.

Second time we have been here within a year. Location is just on the outskirts of main area of town just a 10-15 minute walk away. Rooms are spacious and comfy king size beds. I think we got value for our money, particularly with the great selection on offer for breakfast. Hotel staff are so friendly and helpful. Hotel grounds are kept immaculate with a team of gardeners out there every day attending to the beautiful surrounds of the very green gardens and sweeping up dropped leaves and petals. I didn't have any problems with noise though my husband said the people in the room next to us woke him up in the early hours of the morning having an argument but I did not hear a thin. It was lovely to see some of the same faces as our last stay like Penn, May, Noung and Zeed. Always on the go these 4 always working hard and looking after the guest's. It was lovely to see Oaf in the garden pool bar again, another one and his tea.who is always looking after guest's around the pools. We had a couple of messages at the Breeze spa upstairs in the hotel, it was a great experience and Dao and Siew were fantastic. Perfect amount of pressure, along with the surrounding, decor and atmosphere during massage made the whole experience most enjoyable (would definitely recommend the Breeze scrub package). All in all great time had yet again and will definitely be back xx. Read less

Amazing experience. From the room to the pool, everything is great and well done. Special mention of Penn, working at the breakfast buffet and also Apple at the front desk. They helped me a lot and were all time super nice and friendly. See you again soon :)

We recently stayed at Amari Koh Samui as a group of eight, across four rooms, and four nights and absolutely loved our experience. We stayed at the Thai wing with pool facing rooms that were splendid and next to each other. The rooms are spread out well and resonate with the local thai architecture-love the wood work. The hospitality stood out from the very start — the staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable, even heating milk for the kids every night without hesitation. The resort’s location is ideal, right by the beach and just a short walk from Chaweng Road, yet blissfully quiet and peaceful. Convenient stores like 7-Eleven are close by, which made things even easier. The beachfront is beautiful, with soft white sand and clean surroundings — perfect for walks and sunsets. The only downside is the water, which had a bit of algae during our visit, making it less ideal for swimming. That said, the resort’s atmosphere more than made up for it. Their tourism desk was excellent too — fairly priced and efficient, helping us plan a great snorkelling trip. One of the nicest surprises was that Amari didn’t charge a deposit, unlike many other hotels in the area. Overall, it’s a warm, well-run resort that strikes the perfect balance between family-friendly comfort and easy access to everything Koh Samui has to offer. Highly recommended! Loved the breakfast spread. They have an Indian selection along with an assortment of western dishes and some Thai options too. The live soup station is something worth trying. Their breads and confectionary were out of the world, especially their gluten-free brownies. Apart from the lovely made-to-order coffee and tea the staff accomodated our vegetarian requirements. Since we had to leave early on the day of check out, they also gave us boxes to take some confectionary for the kids. Fresh food, delivered with a smile. Read less

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Amari Koh Samui! The resort is beautiful, the location is perfect, and the staff are warm and welcoming. A very special thank you to Chef Jatin, who went above and beyond to ensure all our Indian Hindu dietary requirements were met. He personally prepared special meals for us every morning and made sure everything was suitable for our needs. It was such a comfort and joy to have an Indian chef who truly understood and respected our religious requirements — and the food he made was absolutely delicious! We truly appreciated the extra effort and personal care — it made our experience even more memorable. Highly recommend Amari Koh Samui for anyone visiting the island! Would you like me to make it a bit shorter and more conversational, suitable for a Google Maps review, or keep it in this slightly formal, detailed tone? Read less
