[2025 Koh Samui Hotels] Travel Guide for W Koh Samui (Updated Jun)

W hotel is one of the best hotel here in Thailand. It is located in Koh Samui in the beautiful province of Surat Thani. It’s very comfortable here and relaxing place. I am really impressed as how this hotel situated next to the beach. As they say “You will get what you paid for” and indeed you will really get it from the service, place, and food. If you need a caddie to go to their amenities, they’re just one call away! All in all, In just a short period of time that I stayed here, I really felt the true luxury (of course from the fruit of my labor) 😁 It’s worth it! Go ahead and try this amazing and fabulous hotel here in Koh Samui #staycation #beachlife #travel #hotel

#2024Travel Review Koh Samui, Thailand. W Hotel Koh Samui Pool Villa. This restaurant is considered a local old ins style restaurant. I believe everyone has seen its classic infinity pool, sunken sofa and large W on the website. The overall decoration is not too "nightclub" style like some trendy W's. All rooms in W are more expensive because they are pool villas with private pools. But the interior decoration and size of the rooms are basically the same, only the seating orientation is different. The private pool is an infinity pool, which is relatively narrow, but still long enough to swim back and forth a few times. The bathroom has a separate giant bathtub, double sinks, wet and dry separation, and a bath. You can jump into the swimming pool as soon as you open the sliding door of the bathroom. The overall hardware facilities are good, but the hotel is really old. Although the design is not outdated, the hardware can also tell a bit of age. The circular sofa in the Pool is a great place to sit and check in from day to night, and there is a fireworks show at night. Anyway, the Main swim pool is open 24 hours a day, right!

#WaterActivities #100TravelTips ☕️ If you stay at a resort, Pool Villa, sea view, sit, eat, sleep, repeat and get bored ... I recommend the activity "Floating Breakfast at Private Pool". Some hotels/resorts offer this service (but there may be an additional charge, depending on each hotel). Because the floating tray must be a special device 🗿 Ask if it tastes better? The answer is that it's the same as before. Breakfast ... but the atmosphere is good, the picture will be great. When posting pictures on social media, it will be amazing 😃 At least there is something to do in the morning. The mood forces you to wake up 🍁 Recommendations: 1. Use it to take pictures. For Instagramable people only. After taking pictures, bring the whole tray up to eat on the table. Or by the pool is more suitable ... because it may spill into the pool and shake the water (some hotels charge a fine, and the fine is expensive. Because it may have to be cleaned again) 2. You must have someone to help lift the "Floating" tray into the water because it is very heavy. There must be someone to hold the tray in the water. If there is only one person… the tray may tip over. 🏝️ The review is “Floating Breakfast” at W Hotel Koh Samui, which has one of the most beautiful views on Koh Samui. So we couldn’t resist. We had to take some pictures. The pool is big and the view is beautiful. There is no additional cost (so what are we waiting for… let’s do it)… The pictures will look chic and luxurious like this. ✨

#Beachfront accommodation 🏝️ “Koh Samui” has many accommodations and resorts (really many 😎) to choose from. I personally have been to many places, but…. I can’t let go of this location. I have to come here. If I’m not staying here… I’ll stop by. If I don’t drive here myself… I’ll let the hotel car pick me up for “WOOBAR”. ✨ The saying “This place is beautiful. Great vibes both day and night” 🥂 is not an exaggeration. ✨ During the day, the view from WOOBAR, number one in Samui. Most tourists will know W KOH SAMUI from the sofa bed in the pool with the sky and sea of ​​Koh Samui as a backdrop. ✨ At night, WooBar emphasizes beauty and a good atmosphere from lighting 🌈 Bright and modern colors that will never go out of style. Plus, the drinks from WooBar’s Mixologist are great. The alcohol is delicious and beautiful. 🧊 Tips! ✨ You can come even if you’re not staying here (it’s worth it to take pictures)… Outside guests can come and eat. The entrance fee is 1000 baht/person and this 1000 baht can be used as food & drink credit 👍

The most anticipated part of this trip to Koh Samui was the W Hotel, the same honeymoon hotel as Jay Chou's, which has been open for several years and has always been 🔥. Just checked out and came to see what's fun at W Hotel, there are quite a few Chinese staff. . 🏨 Rooms There are about 70+ rooms, all of which are super spacious, villa-style. I stayed in the Tropical Oasis Villa, which comes with its own pool. There are also villas on the hill, where the pool has a sea view, but I almost missed out on booking one due to the holiday rush. The room's minibar has dozens of snacks and drinks (some require extra 💰), and the coffee machine is quite retro. They also provide little sunscreens, beach slippers, and mosquito bite spray. The shower area is divided into indoor and outdoor, with the outdoor feeling very jungle-like. The evening turndown service even dressed up the daytime teddy bear in pajamas. . 📷 Photography The hotel has several different areas with W installations, and the colors change according to different holidays or themes. I still prefer the white ones. 1⃣️ In the Lobby: The classic W installation at woobar, having afternoon tea and taking photos there is so beautiful, I spent a long time in this area, it's very upscale and modern. 2⃣️ Infinity pool: You can take overhead shots from woobar, I didn't go down due to limited time, but it's super beautiful for swimsuit photos. 3⃣️ Beach: You can go at sunset, now around 6:00 is fine, the pink-purple and yellow colors are staggeringly beautiful, and I even caught a beach wedding and took photos of the floral arch. 4⃣️ Near the beach: The lazy sofas, international chess, beach hammocks, and swings are all great spots for photos. . 🏨 Must Experience I've compiled some 🆓 activities 1. woobar's evening fireworks show: Starts at 8:30, a feature of Koh Samui. 2. Beach sunset: The silhouettes are too beautiful. 3. Beach movie: Every Friday night from 7-9 pm, you might need to order a drink. 4. Muay Thai class, beach yoga... can be booked in advance, there will be an activity schedule in the room. . 🏨 Dining 1. woobar afternoon tea: The regular price is a little over 2000THB, from 1-6 pm. 2. The dessert house near the hotel rooms is 🆓 to eat. 3. The breakfast restaurant below woobar has good dishes.

Clear waters, soft sand, swaying coconut trees and simple folk customs... Compared to other popular Thai islands, the unspoiled Koh Samui has clear water and shallow sand. Some people love its isolation and low-key nature, while others love its clearness, tranquility and pure scenery. But what I like most is the unique fashion and vitality of W Koh Samui! W Resort Hotel redefines life and vacation, and follows the principle of "view as the most important" in design. Whether it is luxurious public spaces or private residences, they all enjoy boundless views. Moreover, W Koh Samui pays great attention to the local characteristics of Thailand, deliberately creating a perfect balance with the surrounding environment. The hotel's artistic landmark building exudes luxury and innovation everywhere. The tranquil waters seem to be connected to the sea in the distance, and the sunken seating area that blooms like a lotus is immersed in this peaceful harbor. With the wooden plank road as the guide, it seems as if you can step into the water and clouds in the next second. The unique design of the W lobby in Koh Samui has been a model for many other hotels to imitate for a long time. I came back after four years and stayed here for the fifth time. I still think it is as beautiful as before!

W Koh Samui not only has a private beach, but also provides an outstanding afternoon tea, which allows me to immerse myself in the luxury of style and food. Let us unveil the mystery of this hotel together! 🌴🌊🏨🍵 When I arrived at W Koh Samui, I was immediately attracted by its unique design. From the lobby to the guest rooms, every corner showcases design elements full of style and creativity. This stylish style runs throughout the hotel, making people feel stunning and excited. 🌟✨🏢 The hotel has a private beach which is one of my favorite features. I can enjoy the embrace of the sun and waves on this peaceful beach. There were comfortable lounge chairs and umbrellas on the beach, so I could relax to my heart's content. Here, I can immerse myself in the beauty of nature, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and enjoy some quiet and relaxing time. 🏖️🌞🌴 Afternoon tea at W Koh Samui is an absolute feast for the senses. Their food is of outstanding quality and tastes and looks amazing. Exquisite pastries, delicious sandwiches and fresh fruits, every dish is the result of the master's painstaking efforts. I particularly like their specialty teas, which have a rich taste and make me feel luxurious and enjoyable while tasting them. This afternoon tea made me feel like I was in a fantasy world of gourmet food. 🍰🍓🍵 In addition to a private beach and afternoon tea, W Koh Samui also offers other luxurious facilities such as a swimming pool, spa and gym. I can take a refreshing dip in the swimming pool, enjoy soothing massages and treatments at the spa, and stay in shape in the gym. These facilities made my trip more enriched and diverse, and I was fully taken care of both physically and mentally. 💦💪💆 W Koh Samui is a luxurious destination that combines stylish design, private beach and fine dining. I was deeply impressed by its unique design, outstanding afternoon tea and luxurious facilities. If you want a stylish and delicious holiday in Koh Samui, I highly recommend W Koh Samui. Let’s enjoy this stylish beach afternoon tea trip together and create unforgettable memories! 🌴🌊🏨🍵 #W Koh Samui #Private Beach #Afternoon Tea #Thailand Seaview Accommodation

❣️The hotel is about 30 minutes’ drive from the airport. ❣️The main building is not big and is located on a small hill overlooking the sea. It has mountain villas and beach villas. We stayed in a beach villa, which is within walking distance of the beach. ❣️The super beautiful villa suite has a private swimming pool. The bathroom has a bathtub with a view of the garden pool, a separate shower room and toilet, and an outdoor shower room. ❣️The villa is close to the beach and you have to walk up a slope to reach the main building of the hotel. But as long as you call the front desk, the hotel will send an off-road vehicle to pick you up at your room door. The service is very considerate. ❣️There is also a Sweet spot near the villa, with free ice cream and popsicles 😍 ❣️There will be a wonderful fire dance performance at 8pm on Friday night. ❣️The hotel has a private beach🏖️Canoeing and SUP are available for free. ❣️Delicious buffet breakfast with diverse food, air-conditioned indoor and outdoor seats with sea view. ❣️The only thing missing is a kids club. Although the hotel offers short children's activities on the beach in the afternoon, it would be better if there was an indoor kids club. #Overseas Travel #Koh Samui #Koh Samui Hotel #Thailand Travel #Sunshine and Beach #Thailand Seaview Accommodation Address – 4, 1, Mae Nam, Amphoe Ko Samui, Surat Thani 84330 Price per person: HK$3,600 including breakfast Rating - ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

#Review of beautiful accommodation W Koh Samui Everything is perfect, very good. From the first step into the hotel, I was impressed in every point, whether it's sight, taste, smell, sound. The hotel can satisfy the senses almost without realizing it. Many landmarks are really good. The only thing I don't like a little is the drinking water that is in a glass bottle. I feel like it drags down the score here a lot. Breakfast after COVID is still a menu like everywhere else, but here, the menu is still more and more diverse than other hotels during this time. There is a sweet spot that is a point to increase energy. There are drinking water, minerals, ice and ice cream available 24 hours a day. I will come back again when I have a chance.

The W Koh Samui I stayed at in Koh Samui was amazing and photogenic 🥹 All rooms have villas and pools, so it feels really private! The private beach was stylish and there were not many people, so I was able to enjoy the beach to the fullest 👍 The rooms were really spacious and the pool was also quite large. I don't usually go swimming, but it was so luxurious that I swam a lot. lol The breakfast was stylish and had a wide variety, and there were free drinks and ice cream available in the building, which was great! It's a 5-minute drive to Fisherman's Village and about 20 minutes from the airport. It's very private, so it's recommended for anniversary trips and honeymoons. 🥰 ▶︎ W Koh Samui ▶︎4/1 Moo 1 Tambol, Tambon Mae Nam, Koh Samui, Chang Wat Surat Thani 84330 #overseastravel #thailand #thaitravel #thaisightseeing #bangkok #bangkoktravel #bangkoksightseeing #thaifood #thaispots #samuitravel #samuisightseeing #samuihotel #WKohSamui #accommodationreview

W Koh Samui, one of my favorite hotels, I can say that it is very beautiful. It makes you feel like you are the most yourself. There are many beautiful photo spots. The pool in the villa is big enough to swim and have fun. There are snacks all day long. The highlight is the Woo Bar, which has been transformed from a lobby lounge to serve awesome drinks and cool music. Party people should not miss it. The service is very good. The staff is attentive. The room and food are very good. I will definitely go back again. #Koh Samui hotel

#WinterTravel #Ho-cation #KohSamui 🧳You can enjoy the swimming pool leisurely because there are hardly any people. 🧳The main pool of wKohSamui Resort is about 25 meters. It's bigger than you think, so it's hard to swim a few times. There were more people who came for honeymoons or couples than for family trips. You can take a buggy to get to the pool at wKohSamui Resort, but we mostly walked because it was fun to see the resort while walking. If you call for a buggy, they'll send it within 5 minutes.

#BeautifulAccommodationReview On Koh Samui, there is a hotel that is widely known and its world-class reputation is not an exaggeration, "W Koh Samui". Where is the beautiful accommodation? 1️⃣ W Koh Samui is located on Mae Nam Beach, opposite Koh Phangan. The view is beautiful Koh Phangan. The location of the hotel and the lobby are on top. When you check in, everyone will be stunned by the view. 🤩 2️⃣ The world-famous Woo Bar. Everyone who likes to party doesn't know it. Beautiful, chic, beautiful lights, beautiful sea view 3️⃣ The Kitchen Table, the main restaurant of W Koh Samui, is beautifully decorated, magnificent. Most importantly, the view is a panoramic sea view. 4️⃣ All rooms are Pool Villas. The starting room, Jungle Oasis, has no view, but the interior is magnificently decorated, stylish, chic and cool. The private pool is 11 x 2.5 m. in an area of ​​163 sq.m. is spacious and comfortable. The decoration in warm, modern & luxurious tones is the highlight. Especially the bathroom, it still confirms the word beautiful, Instagramable, don't miss it!!! 5️⃣ Good at the central swimming pool Another famous W Koh Samui check-in image is the swimming pool. The Main Pool is rectangular with a 180-degree sea view. It is beautiful and worthy of the status of W Hotel. 6️⃣ Lobby and AWAY spa are beautifully decorated and are the face of the resort. Especially the Lobby combined with the sea view, I assure you that anyone who walks into this area will definitely grab a camera to take a selfie, and many poses too. Personally, I see this resort as a gallery showing art in a very artistic way. #luxuryhotel

#WinterTravel #Ho-cation #KohSamui 🧳Address: 4, Mae Nam, Amphoe Ko Samui, Surat Thani 84330 Thailand The interior, decorated with W's unique sensibility, was modern and sophisticated, perfect for my personal taste. Koh Samui in Thailand is perfect for traveling in the dry winter season~ 👍My husband and I went on a trip for our wedding anniversary, and it's also a great place to go for a honeymoon~

#Thailand Hotel Address – 4, Mae Nam, Amphoe Ko Samui, Surat Thani 84330 Thailand Features - Standalone villa with its own private swimming pool, hotel beach and bar Rating - Five stars (5/5) Needless to say after seeing the photos, the hotels are all stand-alone villas with their own private swimming pools, which means you can take unlimited photos and play in the water, and then go directly to the bathroom to wash up. The price includes breakfast, which is very affordable. You can dine at the kitchen table, and there is a rich variety of dishes. The hotel staff are very friendly and attentive. There is also a free bar outside the room where you can get unlimited ice cream and soft drinks. You can also call the hotel front desk to go to the hotel beach bar to enjoy the sea view and sunset. During happy hour, there is a buy one get one free offer. The cocktails are very good. W Hotel can always make me wow ~~ amazed

#ChillAtRooftop This is another place where the view from above is very beautiful. If you don't say "Rooftop", I would like to say that it is the most lively and lively rooftop with a sea view on Koh Samui. WOO BAR is a world-famous bar of the W Koh Samui hotel brand. It is located on the top of the Main Lobby building and on the top of the hill. Therefore, the view from here is a rooftop that can see the sea far and wide and the Hillside almost 270 degrees. The sea view in the morning, afternoon, evening, sunset and night, I sat and looked until I found the differences that are beautiful and not the same. Personally, I think the most beautiful time is during the day because you can see the sea far and the colors are very beautiful. As for the sunset, if you are lucky and there are not many clouds, it will be the most beautiful. But another time is in the evening when the lights from fishing boats (squid fishing) will be green and lined up along the sea. And it reflects similar to the phenomenon of the Northern Lights (Aurora) in foreign countries in Scandinavia (I can imagine 😆) Let's just say it's beautiful in another way. Especially at "Woo Bar", they will play music and have cocktails or mocktails to order... food, snacks, snacks are ready. It's even more awesome. 😋 #luxuryhotel #cafe #bar

#SeaTrip Going to the sea @ Koh Samui in the rainy season on the day of diving, the weather is not good. Sitting, lying down, doing activities in the hotel, besides the spa ... there is one activity on the trip that you don't want to miss. Whether you come with friends, with your lover or with your family, it's fun for everyone. 🥘 "Moo Krata by the Beach", a beachfront barbecue, a private beach of W Koh Samui Hotel, arranged on the beach. It can be a pavilion or a table, depending on your request. The dining area will be in the SIP restaurant ... the atmosphere is 100 percent, the deliciousness is a million. Enjoy the most premium ingredients, both fresh seafood, full flavor, good meat, fresh vegetables, no chemicals and the most delicious dipping sauce. Most importantly, it is clean with 5-star hotel service. 🍷 Price 1,599++ baht per set (for 2 people) From 12.00 - 18.00 at Zip 🦀 Who would have thought that going to Koh Samui, you would find barbecue pork, and it's a barbecue pork in a 5-star hotel. It's a new experience. Not monotonous with hotel-style food, especially during Covid 19, we must emphasize Distance Avoid crowding in the outdoor barbecue restaurant. So we can eat comfortably, full, delicious, economical, fun, 10/10 likes #Secret location #Point out delicious restaurants #Koh Samui

Beautiful hotel, good service, complete view and atmosphere. Worth the price. I like it. There is a service of drinks and ice cream all the time. Private beach, delicious restaurant, good service staff, massage on the beach. If I have a chance, I will go back to visit again.

As a choice between two hotels in Koh Samui, I did not choose this one in the end. However, I still spent money to enter the hotel and enjoy afternoon tea. After all, this internet celebrity check-in spot is extremely well-known. I didn't choose to stay here because I didn't like the public areas of the hotel, the rooms were not close to the beach, and it was a bit far to get to the beach, which was inconvenient. After coming to W Hotel, I am very glad for my choice. In fact, opening the public areas to non-guests violates the rights of hotel guests and seriously affects the hotel environment. After all, the public area facilities and services are the main considerations when choosing to stay in a hotel. If it is just guest rooms, then perhaps staying in a high-end apartment would be more comfortable. The photos were taken on June 2, 2016. From this group of photos, we can see that almost all the people in the photo were Chinese. In fact, no matter what country the people are from, too many people is never a good thing for photography. Since we were just guests for afternoon tea, we were not disappointed. But if I were a hotel guest, I would definitely feel very bad about this scene. #Thailand #Samui Island #staycation #Cost-EffectiveHotel #Internet Celebrity Check-In #kohsamui #whotel

W Koh Samui, known as W, will never disappoint you. A 5-star luxury hotel with excellent service, meticulously decorated and beautifully luxurious. But here, they add a fun twist, perfectly inserting art. Sometimes, walking around the hotel can make us enjoy it as if we were immersed in street art from abroad. But don't just get too engrossed in the beauty of the hotel, because there are many activities waiting for you, such as canoeing, boxing, fitness, swimming, spa, yoga, diving, windsurfing, and many more waiting for you to try. Plus, there is a beautiful, clean private beach where you can relax with a light atmosphere and cool breeze that will make all the stress in your life disappear. The soft, fluffy mattress will make you sleep comfortably. If you want to relax and let your mind float away, let W Koh Samui heal you. #SouthernTeam

Of course we did not forget about the Best Beach in Koh Samui- Chaweng Beach- which was literally right in front of our hotel💚 The sand here is so nice,soft and powdery, the sea is clean and warm so stayed and “tried” to swim here for a while, for me it’s more like “float” around🤣 I was walking and tapping my foot in the sea is to check the depth—as I can’t swim so had to stay close to the shore🤭😎 by the way they have got tents for u to use and loungers to lie and sit on! #xmastrip #myhiddengems #summervacation #freehotelstay #familytrip #localguides #samui #historicallandmarks #mytravelhacks #passionpassport #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #asia #foodie #asiatrip #mustdo #food #trip #travel #naturalwonders #couplestrip #thingstodo #kohsamui #hongkong #springwander #thailand #myitinerary #aprilblooms
