The rooms were big and seemed more authentic than other places. But fir the price, of expected more. Most places I’ve stayed in Thailand offer massages, and other things. For the price I expected more. That said the staff were great, and we enjoyed our stay. Just more expensive than it should be.
We had a Beach Front Deluxe Double bungalow that included breakfast and were there from 28 Aug. to 3 Sep. 2018. This resort is away from the hustle and bustle of Chaweng but well located for general tourist activities. Enjoyed breakfast every morning. Clean large swimming pool with towels supplied at both the beach and the pool. Bungalows are located in a garden setting and most would have a sea view. All staff were helpful and friendly.
Would stay there again.

Nice accommodation...but lacking atmosphere
Accommodation spacious.
Location at very top end of Chewang (10-15 minute walk into central Chewang)
However hotel lacks any atmosphere, pool area very ordinary, breakfast basic, beach ok. Overall hotel quite rundown and could do with some T.L.C.
Staff at reception very helpful and pleasant.
The hotel is priced accordingly for the spacious accommodation but unfortunately it ends there.
Really lovely place in an otherwise modern and over developed area. Welcoming, relaxing with lovely huts in a lush tropical garden setting. Small private beach, which is perfect for family’s and just a 5 min walk from the main beach if you want to dip into the full on resort atmosphere that is Chaweng beach.
Would chose this place every time if I was going again. Perfect.

A gorgeous, quiet setting right on the beach.
Lovely spacious bungalows tucked away in a quiet, private garden setting. Large covered deck to relax on. Options for seating, easy for drinks and nibbles, or a quiet relax with a book. Not many people around, so felt like our own little piece of paradise with our own staff! Helpful, friendly staff that were there when we needed them to organize outings. Although very clean, needs a bit of TLC - such as re-thatching of rooves & replacing pool tiles & table cloths as were getting a bit faded, but didn't have any impact on our stay at all. Breakfast buffet was great - superb range to choose from, different cooked options each day (eg french toast, crepes, pancakes). Omeletes made to order, no additional cost. A definite to stay if you like paradise with a touch of the rustic! Easy to get to other things - walk to a small shop for quick things or ATM, otherwise a songthaew to wherever you wanted. Perfect!
The resort is a typical thai gem! The spacious and beautiful little wooden villas are set in a wide spread tropical lush garden! The view to the beach and the ocean is breathless! If you really want to relax in nature, this is it! The only things which could be improved are the aircondition (its working but a little noisy) and the WiFi in the rooms! But all in all it was a wonderful stay and I would definitely book again!
The service from the front desk personnel especially Gan was amazing. Gan took the time to take us through the map of the island and things to do. What a great guy! The lady with the glasses that works with him was also amazing. This resort is so different and rustic. Not pretentious. The location is superb away from the hustle and bustle.
Booked a beach front room and was not disappointed. Loved every minute. Great location if you want to be able to walk to the central part but not be in the middle of it all. An absolute haven away from the madness but not far enough not to join in when you want to. Serene private beach. Lovely staff. Missing Coral Bay Resort. Love the place and would return in a heartbeat. xxx
We originally only booked 2 nights here but after staying we extended 2 extra times for a total of 7 nights! Truly the most amazing traditional Thai resort with an incredible ocean view, delicious restaurant Coco Rock, huge bungalows with large balconies, a very private beautiful beach and lush tropical grounds. Staff have been so kind and accommodating, helping to book excursions and offering advice. A+ resort!! We couldn’t have asked for a better place in Thailand!
Amazing place. Excellent service ! I always come there ... and like it so much!!!!

Restaurant very poor. Pool is very old. Hotel was empty but we got a room very far from the beach, it was very difficult with the kids to move around. The room was very nice and big but totally not necessary for a small family
Everything was absolutely amazing. From the early check in to leaving, the staff was very helpful and super friendly. the rooms a 're spacious and beautifully decorated, each with a massive balcony facing the ocean. The garden is in amazing condition and staying there surrounded by that tranquility was just an amazing pleasure. The food at the restaurant on the beach is of top quality! Walking to Chaweng for a bit more enetertainment would take you about 15 minutes or only 5 minutes or less by til til or taxi which is passing all the time. I just love Coral Bay and would most definitely recommend it to anyone going to Samui.
We were very happy to stay out from the noisy area , we enjoyed the beach which was not crowded with people and at night we could hear the waves to go to sleep, in the morning there were many birds in the
area. The Bungalows were well apart. Although the pool area and restaurant were on the tired side and could do with a sparkle up , we could not fault the service at the resort.
I really cannot say enough good things about this hotel and the staff. The beach is amazing in front of the hotel. The setting is so peaceful. The location is great its 5-10 mins from airport but you cannot hear planes at all from the resort (they must take off and land in another direction). The food is really good for breakfast and anything we ordered for lunch. All fresh fruit in the drinks we ordered while laying on the beach. The staff are the nicest people and had great recommendations.Easy to walk 5-10 mins from the resort to get to other restaurants or hop in a tuk tuk for 50 baht and head to other parts of the island. If you are on the fence about this hotel don't be the value is amazing for what you get. I hope we can come back soon!
Lovely bungalow very spacious with great facilities. Lovely large veranda perfect for relaxing on. Bungalows very spaced out and felt very private in large gardens. Right on the beach with a lovely restaurant and bar that served great food. Staff were excellent and everywhere kept very clean. Location good easy to get to the centre of the action but far enough away giving a more relaxed stay
The staff were really friendly and efficient. Our villa was a such a surprise. It was a wooden villa with a big balcony. We had a lovely sea view. The room had a huge comfortable bed, Loads of space with a really authentic feel and the bathroom followed suit. Just an amazing room. The breakfast was great. This is a really tranquil place which is very close to
The bar in the hotel was very quiet so nice for a quite drink or it is about a 10 minute walk to the main action of chaweng beach
Thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay starting from the warm reception of the very late night checkin staff right through to the end of our 5 night stay.We were fortunate to have a seaview cabin with large balcony set amongst tropical gardens with plenty of privacy and it was a lovely oasis and separate world apart after the bustle of Chaweng. A short 2min .walk to local shops and restaurants. Not a resort for the high 5 star full on lifestyle but a lovely way to relax and unwind in a peaceful eco style atmosphere.

Highly recommended !
Friendly staff and light to moderate exertion needed by my elderly father who can't walk too far. We were immediatly upgraded to beach front near to restaurant and on the beach. Beautiful quite place and the food was amazing!
Large bungalows nicely separated from neighbours, comfortable bed with plenty of room to separate hot bodies (highest temperatures in 50 years!)
Easy walk to main town with plenty of low cost "Jeepney" taxis passing every couple of minutes.

Nice bungalows in quiet garden setting
Hotel staff not very friendly. Old resort needs maintainence. Nice quiet location, peaceful but if you're looking for luxury it wont suffice. Beach is rocky and dirty in some places which was a really shame. Lovely views.
Lovely eco-lodge style resort in a quiet neighborhood just north of Chaweng.
Probably not the place to stay if you are looking mostly to party in Chaweng, but ideal if looking for a quiet and relaxing resort but want to pop into Chaweng occasionally for meals and entertainment.
The hotel is a little bit worn and dated, but for me this adds to its eco-lodge character.
The only real negative is that the pillows are quite old and uncomfortable, preventing a perfect nights sleep in the tropical jungle. The hotel really should fix this, as otherwise this hotel deserves a 5 star review all round.
Beautifully laid out rooms, restaurant food excellent, service first class, 20 min STROLL to Changwen shops, bars etc.
I have stayed here before and would definitely stay there again
