Description
For the money, the Amari is excellent value, and we found the staff to be excellent - knowledgable and extremely friendly. The deluxe rooms are across the road from the beach, in a series of three-storey buildings nestled in exquisite grounds. When we visited in May 2006 the beachside portion of the resort was under renovation. Rooms are immaculate and stylish, with a very spacious and thoughtful modern layout. Take your pick between two large pools, with the one further from the beach attached to the Sivara Spa and a longish walk from some rooms. If you go for a deluxe, specify a second-storey room as they are more private and have better views.

Guest feedback
Eh, this didn't impress me. - 
By wanderingwahine ( total comments: 3

I'm very fussy about my five stars, and if I'm paying the price, I expect impeccable service and accommodations. The Amari didn't live up. For the difference in price between the Lamai Wanta and the Amari, the Amari was sorely lacking. From an air-con unit that never quite cooled the room to hotel staff that varied greatly in friendliness and customer service, everything seemed a little half-assed.

Iyara Beach Hotel and Plaza
Chaweng Beach, Ko Samui
This slick resort opened in early 2004, and has two main categories of accommodation: rooms in a three-storey building at the rear of the resort and spacious villas towards the beach. The well-sized rooms unfortunately don't all have balconies, but they're otherwise very comfortable with that... more
Chaweng Blue Lagoon
99 Moo 2 Chaweng Beach, Ko Samui
The bulk of the rooms at this mid-sized Thai-style hotel are in the two-storey building near the road, separated from the beach by lovely frangipani-filled gardens and a good-sized pool. A pretty, well-shaded stretch of beach beckons out front, though it isn't so great for swimming, as the water is... more
Chaba Cabana
160/2 Moo 2 Chaweng Beach
The large Chaba Cabana is bright and colourful, from the bedspreads to the tiling to the kind of strange wooden totems dotted throughout. We're not quite sure what they were trying to achieve with the totems, but regardless, the rooms are spacious and spotless. Throw in the large pool and a... more
