Reviews for Kinnaree Resort

Review 1:No Mosquito blinds and no where to hang net up, got badly bitten 2 nights running. Sink in bathroom was blocked and slow to drain. Booked sea view but didn't get although only 15m to beach. Building works happening at adjacent properties at the moment

Review 2:Clean and tidy bungalow close to beach with view of Big Buddah, also close to bars and restaurants but not busy like Chaweng so perfect for us, hop on hop off taxis drive right past so can explore other places easily

Review 3:Very nice staff, helpful at all times. Bike rental and onward journey booked with the resort. Clean rooms, fast wifi, very quiet and peaceful. On the beach which is relatively secluded. Easy to get around, restaurants and shops nearby. 10 min drive to chaweng

Review 4:The tap in my room didn't work.

Review 5:Loved the staff! Room was clean. Wifi a bit spotty. Location was good for beach and Buddha Pier. Close to some good restaurants and the Kinaree Restaurant was pretty good too.

Review 6:Stayed for one night - before I took a ferry to Ko-Phangan. Was perfect and convenient in terms of cleanliness, kind staff ,and proximity to the ferry. simple and efficient stay.

Review 7:There is literally no one on the beach in the evening/no bars around so toootal relaxation. Mosquitos.

Review 8:Suuper nice staff, very helpful, polite and accommodating. The resort was very quiet and perfect for people who want to relax and lay in the sun. My room got upgraded for free. Free water. New towels every day. Help in booking further trip.

Review 9:Nothing, everything was great for one night stay before flight.

Review 10:The staff were very friendly and helpful. The beach was nice and close to our room. The food in the restaurant was delicious.

Review 11:There were no umbrella's on the beach so we had to move the seats to a coconuttree (the heat was sometimes unbearable). Also the bathroom (especially shower) is quite outdated.

Review 12:Price/quality is amazing! I really liked the atmosphere, and especially in the restaurant (very cozy)! They served great food for reasonable prices! Location is fantastic, within a couple of steps on the beach and two supermarkets within walking distance (2 min. walk). Also the staff is very friendly, booked boattickets for us to Koh Phangang and were always there to help. Really enjoyed our stay!

Review 13:The shower is not to much comfortable. Noisy conditioner that is inconvenient in control.

Review 14:Very pleasant personal, nice placement right on the beach, rooms are cleaning every day with tidiness. Clean beach, nice motorbike rent, plenty massages, shops and cafes are placed near this hotel. The view on the sea is great!

Review 15:Our stay here was perfect. Great location. Right on the water. Spotless rooms. Amazing staff-- so incredibly nice and helpful! Food at restaurant is also good. Would totally recommend it here!

Review 16:The is nothing negative to mention. Should there be one thing, it might be the wi-fi. It was working 100% playing online poker in the room (as i do), but when laying on the beach there might be moments of disconnetion since it was further away from the room. But again, this is a small issue, close to meaningless:)

Review 17:The Price compared to the circumstances is a 10 out of 10. You properly wont find anything for the same price around Samui.

Review 18:Not the best place to meet other backpackers

Review 19:Staff was very helpful, they helped me with everything. Thank you Tum and Tan! Good food and value for money accommodation.

Review 20:Struggling to think of anything negative about the resort.

Review 21:Loved the location, right on the beach, and a 10 minute walk from the nearest tourist pier. Lots of restaurants, bars, but nice and quiet, which is what I wanted. The staff are fantastic, very helpful, polite, and highly recommend booking some tours through them. The WiFi was perfect, and the bed comfy. I ate at the restaurant most evenings and the food was good.

Review 22:The bed was fairly stiff, but the pillows were comfy. I didnt get out to explore that much but it didnt seem like there were very many amenities within walking distance, didnt bother me at all, just something to consider when choosing a destination.

Review 23:There was a private beach right at the back of the facility. The guy working reception and in the restaurant was very friendly and helpful. I conversed with him in very poor thai and he helped me with some translations. Great massage place right across the street, 7-11 about 100 yards away.

Review 24:The pillows were you load caused by a fungus, the mattress had no mattress pad on it, there was only a sheet. The rooms were okay for cleanliness, but not good.

Review 25:It was on the beach.

Review 26:The food in the restaurant was amazing! Very friendly stuff. It's a perfekt location after a long air-travel. i could live my suitcase in the resort, while i travelled to other islands.

Review 27:We only spent six hours at Kinnaree, as my partner needed somewhere to rest between checking out of the hospital and checking in at the airport. The staff at Kinnaree were amazing. I booked online an hour before we arrived, and we were allowed to check in early. The staff helped provide us with everything we needed, and did they best to keep my partner comfortable. I wish we could have stayed longer, great hotel and great prices. I would stay there anytime.

Review 28:Constant construction sounds starting early in the morning, including their own renovation and a new resort being built next door. One Sunday morning the jackhammers and concrete saws woke me up at 7:30am

Review 29:Location right on the beach, convenient to shopping and dining, friendly staff.

Review 30:There were caged birds hanging outside our room which actually detracted from our sleep (princess and the pea complaint I know! )

Review 31:It was walking distance from the pier which was very handy. The staff had English. It's right on the beach which was nice for a dip! Could walk to restaurants along the strip. The room was set up gorgeously on arrival.

Review 32:The front of hotel from road makes a bad first impression, especially if you arrive at night. Just get over that and it's great

Review 33:Location especially if you want to catch Haad Rin Queen from Big Buddha Pier. Clean well presented rooms with good porch area to sit.

Review 34:nothing

Review 35:Great location close to bangrak pier. The food at the restaurant is really good and very reasonably priced. I forgot my spectacles in the room and the owner Tum went out of his way to return it me as I was in phuket. I really appreciated his effort.

Review 36:Shame about the building noise going on but hey should be great for next years stay

Review 63:Location is close to airport.

Review 64:There weren't very many amenities nearby (shopping, restaurant choices etc) however the privacy was nice!

Review 65:Amazing friendly staff right from the get go. When I was digging out the reservation the staff already knew my name and started to process the transaction. They had graciously upgraded us from a deluxe room to the seaside view room, right on the beach front. Conveniently located close to the Big Buddha pier where we arrived from Koh - Phangan.

Review 66:The room is amazing, especially after staying in a hostel. There's aircon, private bathroom, a fride which they put 2 bottles of water in each day. We're less than 10m away from the beach. It's not the liveliest area of koh samui, which we wanted as we were heading to koh phangan next and just wanted to relax

Review 67:Nothing

Review 68:The restaraunt is good. The place is clase to the pier and to the airport. 10 minutes with the bike and you can reach the beautiful Choeng Mon Beach,and a fisherman village

Review 69:One bed needed replacement;; beach not as nice as others on Koh Samui but much quieter

Review 70:Right on beach; good value for money; close to airport; very helpful staff; Yum the manager was extremely helpful when I suffered a medical difficulty and also in retrieving my cellphone which I had left on Koh Tao

Review 71:Really quiet, lovely part of the beach. A little out of the way but for us it was perfect, best part of the beach for white sand and views. Food at the restaurant was excellent, staff really friendly and nice.

Review 72:Not much to do in area Lots of huge Mosquitos !! Very grumpy other guests- was trying to use the sun loungers and they insisted they were there's as they had the room nearest the beach Place felt safe but the window in my room could have very easily been broken into if given a strong slide

Review 73:Very clean room Right on beach Food in restaurant Safe feeling and safe inside room Hot shower

Review 74:Be aware of sea-urchins, I stepped on one of them but fortunately a very nice lady from Kennaree resort staff took the spines out.

Review 75:Good value for money! The staff is really friendly and helpful. We stayed here for 3 nights, the beach is nice and is right next to rooms.

Review 76:The staff were so helpful and friendly. It was a good location for the airport only 10 mins away, and the hotel itself is right on the lovely peaceful beach.

Review 77:Beds are way to hard, sponsored by the massage parlours? Dekchairs on beach are falling apart. Place needs to be refursbished.

Review 78:Location right on the beach, near the airport and close to Fisherman's village. View of Big Buddha from the beach must do wonders to the soul.Quit at night.

Review 79:Probably was a good place in the past but maintenace is poor and this shows of. Water presure was low many times at my side of the bungalows.

Review 80:Checking in was okay, location is nice directly at the beach, good swimming

Review 81:Having to leave for Phuket, although we are eventually here and it's equally beautiful in Kata

Review 82:It's on the beach, peaceful and nearby shops etc. beautiful restart and bar called Secret Garden Bungalows if you walk out of hotel it's just left and down a few yards. Brilliant thai food and amazing cocktails. The staff were great at Kinnaree, the standard rooms are great and the deluxe rooms are great too just bigger and bit better shower but we stayed in both by mistake and we liked both.

Review 83:Rooms are pretty boring, the bathroom is really dark.A bit loud in the mornings, since rooms are situated really close to each other.

Review 84:Good location, if you want to travel to Koh Pangan. There are a few piers if you walk from the hotel along beach. Also not very far away from going out areas - about 10-15min drive.

Review 85:Nothing really.

Review 86:Nice location on the beach, clean room and decent AC. Excellent restaurant on site. Hired scooter for a couple of days and booked ferry/bus tickets from hotel with no issues. Pleasant stay. English spoken.

Review 87:Lights in the corridor between the rooms should turned off at night.

Review 88:Location of Kinnaree is perfect, it is right on the beach. Guests can use the deckchairs on the beach. Restaurant in the hotel offers all kinds of food. Despite the quiet location, there are enough restaurants, 7 elevens and massage parlors in a walks distance. You can rent a motorbike at the hotel, the price is the same as any where else. The beach infront of hotel is clean.

Review 89:rooms are perfectly clean but do need to be updated particularly the bathrooms

Review 90:best thing is walking down onto the beach from your hotel room. staff are great also and good location, good value for money

Review 91:Minor problem with an aging mattress. It was firm enough but springs starting to push through. Parking is inadequate.

Review 92:Very friendly helpful desk staff.. Clean rooms linen and facilities. Good value at this time of year..

Review 93:Not much to do or see in this area.

Review 94:Friendly staff, very clean, good wifi. 5 minutes walk to the pier to koh phangan. Step out your door and you are at the sea.

Review 95:- it's basically a restaurant aling the road with behind it an alley with the "villa's" packed together ending at the beach, not much space, so do not expect a resort - not the best beach of samui - breakfast could be improved - inside of accomodation could use maintenance

Review 96:- cheap - ok location - appartment was clean - staff were relaxed and friendly - we used the facilities of secret garden nextdoor, good food, massage and beds on beach

Review 97:Very nice cashier and ladies in reception. Helpful in renting motobike or booking trips. Room was clean with everything you need. Literally just a few steps from the sea, during the night you can hear the waves. Nice cats around :)

Review 98:You get what u pay. Can't understand the good reviews. Beds are laynthrough, the room is not really clean and tv shows shows s snow with alittle bit picture. Don't order a cab from hotel. A member of staffwanted to cheat me wirh a special highly overpriced voucher. NeverKinaree!!!

Review 99:Cheap, cheap, cheap.

Review 100:Only the Mosquitos and the little bit noisy air conditioning.

Review 101:Perfect beach and half minute to walk there. Nice staffs, always keep smile. And the restaurant is good. Easy to get to to ferry to pangan island.

Review 102:Location, location, location! Directly on the beach. I just walked out of my room and I was on the beach. The staff were also great. Very friendly and very helpful. The girl on reception was brilliant.

Review 103:Right on the beach although the beach wasn't the best. Close to the ferry port. Room was clean and comfortable. Didn't eat at the hotel as there were plenty of other choices right outside the door.

Review 104:Location of Kinnaree is perfect, it is right on the beach, 10 mins from the airport and 5 mins from the Big Buddha Beach Pier. Staff are really friendly and want to help, food also very good and rooms comfy and clean.

Review 105:The beach had some garbage washed up which wasn't nice but otherwise great location. Our toilet wouldn't flush properly.

Review 106:Loved the view and the spacious rooms for so little money. The restaurant was great we lived the food and drinks!

Review 107:Wifi so slow it didn't really work. No free shuttle to airportdespite online advertising. Offered exhorbitantly priced taxiinstead at 5am.

Review 108:Location was great for proximity to airport and right on beach. Stafffriendly and helpful, got me a stand fan when I didn't wantairconditioning at night.

Review 109:Mattress was a little hard...... but consistent with other properties where I had paid more per night.

Review 110:Was on the beachfront with only a short taxi trip to the airport. Clean room with aircon, TV and fridge. Everything worked. Excellent value

Review 111:No mistake of the Hotel but unfortunately we were there only for a one night stop over on our way to Bangkok and to our bad luck it was the Full Moon party. Since the hotel next door had arranged boat transfers to Koh Phangan for their guests it was extremely noisey till about midnight when the boats came to pick up the party animals. On any other night I'm sure it would have been very quiet and peaceful.

Review 112:The beach was almost at our door step with the room we booked. Woke up to the sound of the waves which was lovely. Bike rentals right opposite the hotel and open till midnight. Would defintely stay there again and for longer but not during Full Moon or Half Moon parties!

Review 113:The air conditioning wasn't cold enough.

Review 114:The staff were very friendly and willing to help. Rooms were basic but value for money and right on the beach.

Review 115:really nice place at this price!! it is far from down town, and there's a nice and private beach which is less than 10 foot steps from your room.

Review 117:Got upgraded to Honeymoon suite Very clean Beautiful view Good food inthe restaurant Staff was very friendly Directly on the beach

Review 118:The food wasnt the best but there is pelnty of other places close byto get better food. The shower, although having hot water, was not agreat shower.

Review 119:The room we took was a sea view, and was right on the beach. Excellentsized room, very good value for money. Great wifi connection. I wouldreccomend this place to anyone who is on Samui for thier first time. Itsclose to the airport, and you can rent cars and bikes from reception.
