Bandara Resort and Spa, Samui

The courtyard plunge pool villa was amazing, the perfect oasis for a couple to escape back to or just relax in peace. The resort is located walking to the fisherman’s village filled with restaurants, bars & a great night market. Buffet breakfast was good but not great with a peculiar layout and while they try to cater to both this is more of a family resort.

Had a great stay as a solo female traveller, lovely staff, great location, loved being able to walk out directly onto the beach, be a walkable distance to some great food spots and the Fisherman’s Village Market area. I had booked onto a few tours on the island and this location was easy for the pick up cars to collect me from and drop me back to. Really beautiful grounds and had a perfect relaxing time. They also offered watersports like SUP paddleboarding hire. Only negative was that they were renovating for most of my time there (I wasn't made aware till arrived) and therefore I didn’t get to stay in the room I had booked. Ended up in a “family room” which was bigger so that was good, but just not to my taste style-wise. I had 2 days at the end when the renovations finished and the work they had done looked very nice. Would highly recommend this hotel! :)

Amazing for family travel, you gonna love it

We absolutely loved our stay in the family room at Bandara. Amazing family room with bunk bed and divider, perfect set up for 2 2. Wonderful hotel, multiple pools, lovely clean beach with walking access to the amazing night market. We would definitely stay again!!

Visited Koh Ssmui with family and my 9 year old girl. We had a bunk bed and queen size room which is very spacious, much larger than most hotel rooms. Can essily fit 5 people comfortably. Two showers make a difference too. Love the amenities and accessibility to the beach and the Fisherman's Wharf night market. Short ride to changwen and cheongmon beach for a chilllaxing days too. Highly recommended!

There was absolutely nothing we didn’t like except for leaving the wonderful staff and resort! They made us feel like family and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Absolutely everyone went above and beyond. Our best experience EVER! Thank you everyone at Bandara!!!

This hotel is amazing! Very quiet, although there are families with children (so do we) it was peacfull The breakfast at the sea view... I will miss it. Love the gardens, also the room was very cleane. The kids club was well equipped for children's. I hope we will come againe.

Too many young children

Definitely the best property we stayed in at Koh Samui! We’ve stayed in 3 properties and this was by far the best one! Originally it should have been 3 nights but we ended up with 8 nights ;-) We stayed in one of the plunge villas (2 adults 1.5 y old baby) - it was the best as you can enjoy all services of the hotel but you have your privacy. Small pool & garden were great for our baby - very convinient! Villa was spaceous, everything working well, cleaned every day. We tried several times also room service (food from restaurant) - fresh, tasty, did not take too long. Breakfast - great start into the day with eating well and enjoying the view at the sea! Variety of food was very good - the kid’s corner was very nice as well, our baby liked the food, too! Property area - entrance and reception are at the main road but family rooms and villas are behind it, so it’s not noisy (our villa was very quiet). Pools - big one in the middle of the property area, 2 (adults only) at the beach. We didn’t try pools as we were either in our small villa pool or at the sea. We went to the beach in the morning and always found a spot there. Also the sand bags to lay down and relax were nice! Our baby definitely loved the kids club - very spacious and full of different toys! Staff was always very friendly - you see they like their job and try their best! If we ever go to Koh Samui again, we definitely book this hotel again!!!

Just enough people, not to crowded. Great pools, very kid friendly, excellent breakfast.
