Reviews for ShaSa Resort & Residences, Koh Samui
Review 1:Wonderful resort, hidden from the traffic and the crowd. Spacious, clean and comfortable suites, all with a sea view. Extremely polite and helpful staff. Rich and tasty breakfast. A piece of heaven.
Review 2:Location is 30minutes away from Chaweng Beach but they do provide a shuttle twice a day. Not a real beach as tide was mostly in when we stayed however pool options are superb.
Review 3:The room was amazing - like an apartment and views stunning. Hotel staff very helpful and the Spa was very good.
Review 4:1. delay check-in until 3pm (according to the contract we should check in at 2pm).For compensation, the hotel promise 4 set meals but actually, we only got 4 dishes including a bowl of rice. 2. Smelly room and noise of air-conditioner 3. The beach is so rocky and muddy. 4. The swimming pool didn't change the water for 4 days I'm not exaggerate,I just tell the facts.
Review 5:The suit of the 1st day
Review 6:Relaxed and quite area, but therefore a bit far away from the rest of koh Samui. Food was good, but prices on the high end. Not able to swim or snorkel in the sea, but you have 3 pools
Review 7:Nice rooms and swinging pools.
Review 8:There is nothing that I didn't like ..
Review 9:The room is so huge and very nice design. Also the sea view from terrace and bedroom is picturesque. Staffs are so friendly and helpful. They did their job very great. A must stay when you visit to Samui island.
Review 10:I didnt like the fact that its quite expensive to get to the center and there is no walking distance restaurants we could go to. The breakfast spread is so so.
Review 11:I love how spacious and modern the design of the room. The facilities are superb and the staffs are super friendly and very attentive to our requests.
Review 12:Exellent hotel with the best restaurant on koh samui. Very quite hotel with huge comfortable rooms with everything you need. Very helpful staff they arrange everything for us. They care about guest privacy.
Review 13:It's away from everything but that is ok... Shuttle bus driver need a bit more smiles and less race track
Review 14:There is everything to like, if you want a relaxing holiday this is the place
Review 15:This was our second stay and we love this place. The staff are fantastic, the swimming pools are fantastic, the breakfast is tasty (all Beyond the Sea restaurant food is), the spa is lovely, the 2-bed apartment is awesome, the gardens are beautiful with abundant flora and fauna, the gym has a great running machine. Catch the free shuttle into Lamai or Chaweng for shopping, or rent a motorbike and enjoy the scenery.
Review 16:Location is quite remote and the beach is not very nice. However, renting a car solves most of it, as you can go to other beaches as well as restaurants, etc.
Review 17:Great value for money. Everything was perfect starting from our room, the friendly and helpful staff as well as the nice breakfast and pools.
Review 18:- Structure needs maintenance - Poor service during breakfast - Gym machines are very old
Review 19:+ Location (far from noise) + Room cleaning + Concierge flexibility
Review 20:Paying 700 baht to use washing machine, its miles cheaper to get a laundry service outside of the hotel to wash and dry your clothes. We paid 120 baht. The toliet door is made of clear glass so you can see your partner on the toilet, if you happen to be in the bedroom which is unpleasant. Only 1 restaurant so not much variety.
Review 21:The deluxe 1 bedroom is 100 sq metres, it was huge, it was fabulous. The kitchen has a large fridge and freezer, oven and microwave so easy to cook for children. There's a large tesco nearby to stock up on food and wine. Pools are a good size. The food at the restaurant is very good and our toddler enjoyed the kids club. Hardly anyone there, which was great made it so relaxing but everyone that was, was super friendly and polite unlike the yobs you can get when staying in Chaweng. We'll definitely be back, brilliant value for money.
Review 22:No beach whatsoever, no swimming in the sea from this location. Restaurant very good but expensive for Thai standards (you're not getting out of there without spending 100 dollars for dinner for 2 more than likely if not more). The worst part was they don't take checkout guests in the free shuttle back to Cheweng beach so you could at least save money on the taxi. You have to use their taxi service or get a local guy to take you there, expect to pay around 30 dollars one way to the airport from this location. When you're spending 200 dollars a night I guess it doesn't matter but still a bit frustrating. Also there are no other real restaurants around this location, nothing to do either. So its either get your own food and cook or just eat at their restaurant.
Review 23:Great place and facilities, the room was excellent and the staff very nice. Pools and facilities were great. The restaurant had a very nice breakfast and it was very good for dinner as well. The fitness room was very good albeit small, but worked out fine. Wifi good not great. Got 4 mb/s download speeds. Overall if you want a high end place to stay in a remote area, this could be your place. If you need the beach you can take the free shuttle to cheweng or lamai beach which are both nice. The free shuttles were always on time and comfortable.
Review 24:Silent place Very comfortable room (more like apartment) Great view from windows A huge terrace for enjoying the sea Infinity swimming pools In love with breakfasts
Review 25:The food ordered through room service all served cold. I guess since the kitchen to room the distance is far . They should take note of it.
Review 26:The room size, view , cleanliness and staffs were very helpful.
Review 27:the location is far from convenient so renting a car was a great relieve for us and we recommend others to do so too if any plan to stay here. the breakfast was not the best, not many choices.
Review 28:Loved our room so much; very spacious clean and has everything we need. Bed is very comfortable, kitchen is fully equiped and there's washing machine (altho they charge you 700baht per day to use it). Overall, we are very pleased.
Review 29:Location a bit far from main area however its close to some of major attractions that one must see
Review 30:I liked almost everything except being a bit remote but if u have a car then it will be absolutely fine
Review 31:none during our stay

Review 62:Excellent value for money at the higher end. Much better than the alternatives in that area. Fantastic rooms which actually are as good as they look in the photos.

Review 65:Unvaried breakfast with too much local cuisine, rocky beach

Review 69:It was extra 700baht per 24hrs to use the washer and dryer in the room.
Review 70:You cannot fault the facilities. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The food at the onsite restaurant was great. For a lazy week around the pool, it was perfect.
Review 71:the location is far from the main beaches of the island and requires a car ride of up to 45 minutes to reach Chaweng...
Review 72:The villa is amazing ! big and comfortable...
Review 73:Great space in the two bedroom apartment, food at the restaurant was great, well presented at all times of the day. The day trips from the resort where well organised and great value. The use of the two runs a day to other parts of the island where of great use and helped us get to see different parts of the island and do some shopping.
Review 74:The food options could be a little more. Also, a hotel of such stature can do with a 24 hour room service.
Review 75:We loved the location of the hotel. Situated in a peace and a calm location, it is just perfect for someone looking to relax. We loved the luxurious facilities. The icing on the cake was undoubtedly the view that you get from your room - breathtaking would be an understatement.
Review 76:limited activities at the resort, the timing of some of the activities clashed with breakfast time.
Review 77:the staff, the relaxing atmosphere, the room, the food, the view, the resort design
Review 78:nothing at all !! couldnt be anything bad. the sticky rice that they advertise sooo much isnt the best thing, it was just okay. dont order it.
Review 79:this is an epic hotel !! we had two bedroom deluxe villa, it was huge. design was awesome. kitchen was amazing with a dining table. they gave us complimentary food basket twice :) they lit candles in our bathroom when we were out for dinner. the check in was super fast and very very welcoming. staff was great. there was a dinner place five mins from the hotel, fishermens village: the hotel called them and they came to pick us for free. the hotel had excellent activities for all the days esp for the kids. the hotel is just beautiful, the view from the rooms is amazing u feel like u r on the beach when sitting in the gallery. the breakfast was excellent, fresh juices, freshly baked pizzas, the even made a fresh veg pizza just for us. the beachfront is awesome, there are rocks u can sit on. the swimming pools are amazing and huge and have very unique jacuzzis fixed inside. this is the best hotel there could be in koh samui. book this already if u have kids or u dont. its the best deal. so much worth for the money. you could rent books and dvds for free and take to your room. the location was awesome. u ll feel so calm and relaxed, best place to enjoy. u could rent a scooter or car from the hotel and also hotel can plan your tours. the butterfly park was also very near to the hotel
Review 80:The seriousness of a reception staff.
Review 81:The in-door spacious apartment with contemporary decoration as well as the out-door scenic pool and stony-beach. The restaurant and its not over-friendly but generous waiters. The silent location and not-crowded environment. The friendly car park security staff. The simply but relaxing experience.
Review 82:The only shortage is there is no beach.
Review 83:Good environment, good facilities, nice staff and delicious food. Especially the children room, which could provide a lot of fun to children.
Review 84:1. No too much choise for the breakfast and some dishes and vegetables always easily running out, we need to wait long time for new comes. 2. Since the location is far away from cheweng beach, the only 2 times free shuttle bus in one day can not meet our requests.
Review 85:Everything is perfect, especially the 220sqm room, our team really enjoy the holiday so much. And the room is perfectly equiped and well decorated.
Review 86:the Location is difficult to find. don't have beach and sea cannot use because have a lot of Stone.
Review 87:the room is very nice and confortable for relax, you don't Need to go out because you have everything in this Hotel. the staff very nice and friendly.
Review 88:Beach area is not the best to swim, but they take a shuttle twice perday to Lamai or Chaweng public beaches!just recommendation for the hotel: light music in the pool area, light music during dinner time in the restaurant.
Review 89:Just perfect hotel and residences! Restaurant "beyond the sea"seems to be the best at Samui island.
Review 90:Shuttle bus could be more frequent and I would suggest the toys in Kidsclub could be placed in neater and cleaner way.
Review 91:Food was great there tough only one resturant here. Kids menu offer widevarity but still little but salty. And the apartment was reallybeautifu, just same as the pictures! My family especially my little boylove the places here so much. Highly recommend for family relax who wanta peaceful relax.
Review 92:The hotel was situated a short ride outside Lamai so it was a quiet andnot so filled with tourists.The hotel is relatively small with big suites for the whole family. The standard of the hotel is great, The crew was service minded but not overdoing it. We had celebrate New Year it the hotel where they really had planned a superb menu, entertainment and fireworks. The grew had a good level of english and always helpful when needed. Dont book ShaSa if you want to lay on a sandy beach since the sea was a bit rough but the porch with deckchair was directly to the beach. Wonderful swimmng pools and not crowded.
Review 93:One member of reception staff (Shima) came across as rude on a couple of separate occasions to both my wife and I, which spoiled the farewell and left us with a poor impression.
