The property is right by the water - you will be steps away from the beach, which is what sold it for us. We loved the room and the property, however the property seemed a bit outdated in some areas. The bathroom shower didn't have the best water pressure which frustrated me. The staff were nice but the service at the restaurant/bar was extremely slow and at times left us disappointed. We did enjoy that the hotel offered cheaper shuttles to the different areas in the evening, which helped as the cost to go on your own was a bit pricey. Overall though, it was a bit of a walk from the property to local shops/restaurants so if you want to walk places, we'd recommend somewhere else.

Location was perfect. Lovely clean beach and swimming pools. Rooms were very clean and comfortable.

Quiet beach getaway
Very nice beach front hotel. The staff made sure you had everything you needed. It is located in a quiet area but provides a shuttle to the happening spots if you decide you want that for an afternoon or evening. There are some small local restaurants within walking distance if you want to try something besides the hotel restaurant.

Close to a small beach. they should treat water dumped in rivers better because it does spoil beaches. Free Shuttle to Chaweng Beah - hotel in quiet location which is nice and use shuttle to Chaweng to go for a swim and shopping. hotel restaurant - drinks very expensive. some dishes are small - my cat would eat more!;-) Hotel Staff friendly and competent. would go there again. BEWARE OF CASH MACHINE FEES IN THAILAND - THEY CHARGE 220BAHT (CA 5 QUID) FOR EACH TRANSACTION REGARDLESS OF AMOUNT ADVANCED SO IF YOU TAKE CASH TAKE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

We are happy to read, that you enjoyed your overall stay with us and liked the location, our free shuttle service and the friendliness of our staff. We have addressed the portion size with our chef and we will make sure this will be improved immediately. The rivers do not contain waste water, and it is only sediment that is flushed out during heavy rain. Nevertheless, we will generally pay attention and respond immediately, if wastewater is discharged into the river on the neighboring land.

Very dissatisfied
Unhealthy tap water with sand and black material without any hazard warning, no water pressure in the shower, phone didn’t work, flush didn’t work, clogged drain, late room service, and a very arrogant manager who would not cancel the reservation to move to another hotel. Definitely stay away from this self-claimed 4-star hotel.

Had a lovely time very quiet and tranquil which is exactly what we wanted. The bed was hard and uncomfortable and when we enquired about perhaps changing room we were told all the beds were the same. This is a game changer for us and we would not go back for this reason. Everything else during our stay was fab so this was an unexpected and very disappointing outcome for us

PARADISE INDEED
Great hotel with the best staff and great atmosphere. Food excellent and well priced and restaurant overlooking the ocean makes for a great dining experience. A small beach, well cared for and good for swimming. This resort is ideal for the older generation as it is in a very quiet area, but it does have a second pool catering for children. Overall a good resort with only one minor problem, rooms need drawer space instead of shelves that make the room untidy. A definite return will happen if all goes well.

Beautiful, quiet, but far from Central/Chaweng
Everything about this resort (besides the distance from Central) is great! The resort is quiet, private, and small. It's an ideal size for a couples getaway or quiet family trip. From my perspective, it doesn't accommodate more than 200 or 250 people. It is also right on the beach. Even the farthest room is just a 3-minute walk from the beach... Since there's free breakfast, and the resort is so small, you eat while watching the sunrise. It's beautiful. I'll be honest, their food is OK. Breakfast is standard. I wouldn't eat at the resort for dinner -- there are amazing places like bars and restaurants right outside on the main street that are cheaper. Though I can say the resort has a Happy Hour between 5-7pm. Not bad... You can also buy alcohol in the 7-11. The service was very good -- they have English and German speakers! They helped us call taxis and answered questions. One thing I'd improve -- since the resort is so far from Central, have more shuttles!!! They stop around 8pm (returning back to the resort). Taxis back to the resort is ridiculous.

When we first arrived we got a veg menu which was a little cheaper. We could never again get this menu, we talked on the manager who seemed concerned but it was actually worse when we went back. We couldn't be eat there. At the buffet I had to ask for white rice and a veg omelet which I ate everyday with fruit. There were no Thai options. It's in a nice secluded area.

Hotel is upscale, very good service. Any items bought within the hotel will be pricy and the hotel is a bit outside, but lovely situated directly next to the sea. It is perfect if you want to have a very relaxed, very quiet time. There were mainly couples and one family. If you are a solo traveller it might be a bit boring and just because of that I didnt give it 5 stars.

Lovely hotel, Comfy bed.
We've stayed here twice, and came back because it is a very good hotel. The room was quite nice. Comfy bed, clean shower and bath. The restaurant could use a bit better food, although I guess it was the offseason and a Sunday at that, so maybe the head cook was on his/her day off. The breakfast was quite extensive, as usual. Good job. They put a lot of effort into keeping the grounds looking nice. The staff was wonderful as usual. Highly recommend!

Nice hotel on the beach with a personal touch
Paradise Beach Resort in Maenam, Koh Samui is a real cozy place with a "family hotel" feeling. A breath of fresh air compared with machine-like international chains. The staff is charming, flexible and helpful, the atmosphere is relaxed. Don't expect fancy marble bathrooms and plush carpets - the decor shows the signs of wear and tear, but you know where to turn the lights and the aircon on and off (have you ever tried to figure out how to work the lights and curtain switches in a modern hotel? - a nightmare). Two pools, massage and restaurant on the beach, decent breakfast, overall good food. Great price-to-value choice on the popular North Samui waterfront.
