Chilling in Samui

Reviewed Feb 18, 2023
We loved this place from the moment we arrived. Staff are fabulous and genuinely friendly and helpful Orn was always happy on the front desk and assisted us with travel, advice, issues and scooter hire. Staff in the restaurant were great as well as cleaners. Thanks also to Bow. The whole place has a lovely atmosphere.
The hotel is right on the sea with lovely views. You can walk all the way to Lamai town on low tide. Canoes are available free which we really enjoyed. The sea is calm and flat because of an offshore reef.
We met a few long staying and repeat guests which says a lot about the place.
Only very minor negative comment is that hotel should control reservation of pool seats. Sometimes there was nobody at the pool and no seats available because of reservations using towels. Very frustrating and inconsiderate.
Be aware that the hotel is a little distance from Lamai town but there are a couple of restaurants within a reasonable walk. However Tuk tuks are cheap and we hired scooters which are also cheap at 200 baht a day.
Well be back.!!
Date of stay: January 2023
Room Tip: Top floor has great views over sea.

Very cosy boutique hotel. Lots of attention from staff. It's small, but the breakfast and dinner area outside is very cute.

The breakfast and dinner area opens out into a very lovely bay, where it is very nice to swim, Safe and peaceful.

Convenience store is about 10 minutes walk away.

Some might not like location which is off a main road and a bit dark at night

I dont think i have meet more kind and sweet people. The staff is so helpfull, so kind and would do anything for you. They have helped us so much, did approximatly 10 calls for us, because we didnt know where to get some informations, organised us a drive to port and booked us speed boat to Koh Tao. We rented a scooter from them and got flat tire and they didnt complicated at all and said that it is okay and that they will fix it.
If i will ever come to Kho Samui again, I will for sure go back to Palm Coco Mantra.

For anyone who is planning on staying at Koh Samui, I would highly recommend choosing Palm Coco Mantra for your stay.

We arrived early the first morning, and we were greeted by the extremely friendly team members - this a theme throughout my review. I consider myself well traveled, and the service the staff provided was by far the best I have experienced.

Our check in time was for 2pm, but we got there very early because we had an early flight that left Chiang Mai. They invited us to store our bags, use the spa room for changing and showering. We then went to the beach and ate lunch from the delicious restaurant. Within 45 minutes of being there, they were able to get us into the room. After backpacking throughout South East Asia and being very exhausted, this was gold.

We had a deluxe room on the first floor facing the ocean. It felt like we were in one of the villas. The room and bathroom were extremely clean and modern. The shower felt like heaven, especially compared to the previous places we stayed, and the best was so comfortable.

The staff at Palm Coco Mantra made everything so easy and seamless during our stay. We were there for a week, and it was exactly what we needed to end our trip. They arranged transportation, moped rental, ferry rides, and other excursions for us. We became accustom to using the Grab app (similar to Uber) in the larger cities because it was usually cheaper than a taxi or tuk tuk. In the islands, we found this to not be the case. Renting a moped was the cheapest option, and the hotel staff was able to get it for us at the best price. In addition, we found that the transportation and ferry rides they arranged for us were also at the cheapest price. I’ve stayed at hotels which usually have an up charge for arrangements like this, but not at Palm Coco Mantra.

The hotel is located in Lamai beach, about a ten minute moped ride from the collection of bars and restaurants. It is located on this secluded road next to a few other resorts. It is a 5-10 minute walk from the main road where there are a lot of restaurants with meals 70-120 baht. Amazing!

We really enjoyed talking and laughing with the staff. The front desk women were incredibly helpful and friendly. I wish we could have extended our stay for another week.

Finally, the staff recommended that we go to Silver beach. It is a 5 minute moped ride and about a 20 minute walk. We ended up spending the majority of our beach days there, and only visited Lamai once. The view and beach are absolutely beautiful, and there are restaurants and bars there... as well as massages on the beach!

Thank you Palm Coco Mantra for making us feel appreciated and comfortable during our stay in Koh Samui. I usually try not to go to the same place more than once because there are so many places that I was to visit throughout the world, but I definitely plan on coming back to your hotel.

Sincerely,
Shannon & Madison
