Myles & Virginia Beaufort 2008-04-08 until 2008-04-15	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake You get what you pay for, which isn t much. The staff are good - especially Noo & Book. The pool is nice but it is a bloody long way up the hill to get there. You will find better for the same money. OP Bungalows at Chaweng are really nice in this price range.	Easy.

Linda Dellstål 2008-03-06 until 2008-03-10	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Nice bungalows. The are located in a hill, you had to have very good condition to walk up and down several times a day.It s very close to chaweng centrum so it s very loud music to LATE every night.Big nice pool on top of the hill fine wiev.	Good.
Kevin John Wells / Supattra Niemkon 2008-03-03 until 2008-03-14	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Have stayed at Baan Suan Sook 3 times in 3 years Never a problem Bungalows are large and comfortable and nice large balcony ( remember the mosquito repellant though) Sometimes TV reception is a bit fuzzy Staff Service is excellent and always friendly The Pool at the top is superb Food is very nice and have great Thai food for Thais as well Resort has always arranged my bike hire ..reasonably priced and quick Good location to markets and shops ..easy walk into Chaeweng shopping/eating areas Excellent views and excellently priced	Never a problem with Sawadee.com
Terri Adams 2007-12-31 until 2008-01-02	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake The accommodation was a bungalow on a side of a mountain/hill which involved a number of steps to climb, so if you aren t that fit you may find it a little challenging, although if you ask reception you can get a ride to the bungalow you are staying at. The bungalow was nice, we had a balcony, kitchen, hot water shower room and double bedroom with cable TV with English channels. Very clean and a fabulous view of Chaweng Lake and the sea. The pool was at the very top of the resort, climbing those steps in the burning sunshine can take it out off of you but I didn t mind at all once I hit the swimming pool the view was amazing and the pool looked as if it blended in with the lake. Not very many sunbeds as there wasn t room for them but it made it more private and it was very quiet. I can not fault the staff, they were very pleasant and very accommodating, we were only booked in for 2 nights and wanted to stay for 2 extra nights, there wasn t any room at the inn so they booked us in at their other hotel The Baan Saen Sook which was 5 mins down the road at a special discount, they also took us there on the day of check out. The one thing I did like was the fact whenever we needed to go anywhere the hotel would take us. I would also recommend the Baan Saen Sook, it s very new and the bungalows are fabulous, although it s a little out of the way and has no pool but again the staff were great!	Quick easy and convientant.
Dieter 2007-12-26 until 2008-01-03	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake recommended hotel,good value for the money,less bungalows with twin bed nice stay	no problem
Jonathan Tirado Rodriguez 2007-12-11 until 2007-12-16	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake A little bit far from the beach, and its hard to climb to the pool, its in a hill and seems the EVEREST! Icheck out the after the first night and went to other near the beach, I payed a fine, of 1500 for the cancellation...	perfect
Jonathan Tirado Rodriguez 2007-12-11 until 2007-12-16	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Too far from the beach and very hard to reach the pool, is on the top of the Thailand Everest! To much money.
Paul Hancock 2007-07-06 until 2007-07-13	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Stayed in sea view room B2 during July 2007. Great view. Quiet location. A short steep climb to the beautiful pool area. The rooms are on a hillside which requires walking up a hill. So a degree of physical fitness is required. Room was clean and a good size. maid service everyday. Shower, bathroom, Sat Tv all ok. shuttle service into Chaweng around 5 mins drive or hire a motorbike from the friendly owner and staff. I would definately return here. Paul. England.	No problems. Always replied replied to e-mail within 24 hours.
Jean-Jacques 2007-05-19 until 2007-05-31	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake I am french,often living in hotels everywhere in the world for business.But this one, in Samui, is the best I know for vacations!	Excellent!
dan 2006-12-20 until 2006-12-22	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake clean rooms - very spacious. was disappointed that the room had no hot shower as promised. about 15-20 mins walk from chaweng or use the hotel s free shuttle service. would i recommend this place? it s ok - i ve stayed in far worse and in much better places. i m sure if you shop around you ll find better	good
Helge Rygg 2006-09-04 until 2006-09-14	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Nice bungalows and helpful staff... Great swimmingpool... Swimmingpool is on top, so it can be a drag to walk to in the heat...
steven spencer 2006-08-17 until 2006-08-20	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake the staff 5 star. delux rooms 3 star. the two bedroomed bungalows are old and in desperate need of refurbishment. not worth the money.	excellent

Mr. Piero Denaro 2006-05-06 until 2006-05-17	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake stayed in 2 bedroom bungalow with a superb view over the nearby lake.The bungalow was old and there were holes everywhere ( arround doors and windows )therefore a lot of moskitoes came inside.In need of a serious upgrading.The pool on top is very nice with a fantastic view,but the walk to get there is quite though, but worth the effort.The breakfast was nothing special,should be better for the price you pay.The staff were friendly and helpfull and the shuttle service is great.We payed a lot for extra services,so be prepared to bargin.

cathy mc laughlin 2006-03-06 until 2006-03-09	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake very good	very good

Nick Harvey 2006-01-29 until 2006-02-02	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Had a really nice stay at Baan Suan Sook, the staff were fantastic and the bungalows were clean and quiet. A bit away from the beach but with a free taxi provided by staff this wasnt a problem. Koh Samui is great and theres loads to do there - Look out for the Thai boxing vans in Chaweng, they re hard to miss!	Good service, no problems at all
ruth sefton 2006-01-11 until 2006-01-16	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake My fiance and I have stayed at the Baan Suan Sook resort on two seperate occasions. Although the resort is outside of town it is only a 10-15 minute walk to the beach which helps to burn off those holiday pounds! Only problem this time was we were at the top of the resort and its quite a steep climb- not pleasant after an evening out on the chang! Overall- lovely place and the owners do more than enough to ensure the comfort of guests.	easily arranged with quick conformation and no problems.
Mr.Simon Collas/Mrs Suphan Collas 2005-12-24 until 2006-01-02	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Nice hotel, will go back.... very good location, just slightly away from the main tourist area, so you can relax a bit more. But only 5 mins away in taxi / motorbike if you want all that. Spacious, clean, tidy rooms. The pool is situated at the top of the resort with excellent views right across Chaweng Bay... and good size also. Friendly staff, family run resort... very helpfull. Just a few negative points - no room service, bar/food service by pool is very limited. Resort is situated on a very steep hill side so a bit of challange sometimes to get to the pool or your room depending where it may be situated (especially after a night out).... not so bad if you have a motorbike!	no problems
Robert Miller 2005-12-02 until 2006-01-23	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake In peaceful spot just outside the noisy areas of Chaweng. Good facilities and services, room clean if a little basic.	Very good.
rachel holzman 2005-10-01 until 2005-10-03	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake spent 4 nights in the resort, the rooms are o.k. for the price (900b), the breakfast is o.k., the shuttle service to the beach and center is very helpfull since the resort is far from the beach. the pool is a dream , unbelivible. look out for the matrass, ours was very not comfortable to sleep on!
Denis Cole 2005-09-02 until 2005-09-05	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake The resort was clean, well organised etc, pool facilities are lovely, although the steep hill up to the pool is something to see, resort is a little bit outside town (10min walk) but there is a free shuttle into town. Altogether a nice place to stay	Very easy to use, with good savings on standard rates
Liv Hansen 2005-07-27 until 2005-08-05	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake We stayed at the Resort for 9 days with our 2 boys ( 15 and 19 years). The oldest boy are handicapped. We had a very nice bungalow with wiev over the lake. All the staf was so friendly, helpsome and nice! They helped us with everything we wanted. The swimmingpool on the top is just exellent. Breakfast fine. We have rented a car, but it was easy to get to Chaweng anyway. We will stay at Baan Suan Sook Resort the next time we get to Koh Samui. And a big kiss to the lovely lady, who clean our room, from Kristoffer! Thanks for a lovely time at Baan Suan Sook Resort from: René and Liv and Kristoffer and Frederik from Denmark.	Everything was just perfect! And it is very easy to book this way! And Baan Suan Sook Resort just gave us what we wanted. Perfect!!!!!
Morten Elle 2005-07-16 until 2005-07-21	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake We had some nice days at Baan Suan Sook. It is nice and clean, the swimming pool is good - and the view from the pool is fantastic. The place is located some distance from the beach, but the people running the resort is very helpfull in driving you to the beach - it is only a 10-15 minuttes walk.	Excellent
Lee yiu man 2005-05-06 until 2005-05-09	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake I like this hotel because very clean bungalows and Big clean swimming pool with nice view over Chaweng. Good breakfast,good service and nice staff This hotel anytime have car go to Chaweng Beach and Lamai Beach but go back you must pay 100THB to taxi or pay Tak Tuk 40THB,Hotel opposite left hand side have a good restaurant. The food good taste and cheap.Next time If I go to Koh Samui.I will be at Baan Suan Sook. My best recommendation	easy and great
Lee yiu man 2005-05-06 until 2005-05-08	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake This hotel staff have a good seceive.good hotel,good location,big swim pool	very good
Phil Brown 2005-04-08 until 2005-04-24	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake 7 of us (including 3 children)stayed in 4 bungalows. Accommodation was basic but ok. People were lovely and cooked us all a meal on our last day. Could not have been more helpful, especially Phi the receptionist who saw us off at the airport. Swimming pool was lovely at the top of the hill but no shade. Very clean, excellent service, would definitely recomend. Fellowship bar over the road was great - say Hi from Jess & Jack if you go.	Great
Rickard Elmstedt 2005-03-23 until 2005-03-29	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Very nice bungalows and a lovely pool with nice view over Chaweng. Good breakfast, nice staff and clean room. My best recommendation. /Rickard from Sweden	Good, everything went easy.
cathy mc laughlin 2005-03-12 until 2005-03-25	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Basic but spotless rooms,lovely grounds very helpfull and pleasant staff, fantastic swimming pool.10 mins walk from Chaweng beach.Food basic but good. No hesitation in recomending.But be warned on quite a steep hill although staff will give you a lift at anytime. Located close to all amenities. Great little bar across the road called the fellowship, worth a visit.	no problems as usual
Esther Geary 2005-03-12 until 2005-03-16	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Reasonably comfortable and not bad if you don t mind a 10 min walk into Chaweng main street. However our room was close to the road and very noisy overnight - take ear plugs! Nice new pool at the top of the resort with a decent lake view. Breakfast isn t anything to get excited about. Staff friendly, but English not too good.
Laura 2005-02-02 until 2005-02-10	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Simple rooms but after a stay in Ko Phan Ngan was absolute luxury - hot water, air con, fridge with minibar and spotless. Cleaned every day too! The hotel is about a five minute drive to central Chaweng and the staff have no problem dropping you in - taxi back 100B. Has great pool which is up the top of the hill. Bit of a steep walk but worth it! Hotel has restaurant opened 7am - 10pm however during lunchtime especially if cook is not there you have to go into town to eat. Had basic Thai menu and no deserts or starter dishes but food was great. Seemed to be two people in charge, a man and a woman. The man wasn t the friendliest and argued with me about my booking - first night we had a twin room even though I had requested a double. This was sorted the next day but I was asleep with a headache when I was woken up by the manager and told to move NOW because he had another room and had guests arriving NOW for the room we already had. However, the female manager was fantastic and couldn t do enough to help us and even came out to say goodbye to me after my husband collected our bags from reception. All in all a great place to stay, a little out of the way but great value for money compared with what is on offer in the main area.	Excellent - third time to use and no problems at any time. But specify in FIRST email (ie your email to confirm if room is available)regarding room type - this is the email the hotel owner had and I had written no comments in it thinking I would follow up when it was confirmed room was available. My second email requested the double but the manager did not have a copy of this.
David Whitehead 2004-11-02 until 2004-11-09	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Fairly basic rooms etc. but could not have had a better service from the staff. Quiet location but close to main nightlife area	Booking service excellent
Pattarada & David 2004-10-19 until 2004-10-26	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Very nice place, room are clean and large. The swimming pool is at the top of the hill with a nice very good view. Realxing in pool was great (also pool for children). Bungalows are good also, if you have to go up the hill you can ask free transport by car at reception but take only 2 min by foot. Lot of animals in garden. The thai restaurant is good also, cheap and clean. If you need to go Chaweng you can ask reception to bring you there, and to come back it take you only 5 min. Next time If we go to Koh Samui. We will be at Baan Suan Sook.
Christina Lee 2004-08-27 until 2004-09-03	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Though this place is a little distance away from the chaweng beach (u need a jeep, or u can get a taxi-motorbike, or just a normal cab), it has a beautiful pool at the top of a hill overlooking the lake. It s amazing when fireworks go off at night! The bungalow we stayed at was spacious and comfortable. The staff at the reception are friendly and always ready to help!
Trond Jansen 2004-08-07 until 2004-08-14	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Baan Suan Sook Resort is located 5 min. walk from Chaweng, far away enough to be peaceful, close enough not to be a problem. The staff offer to drive you to Chaweng anyway, so location is not an issue. Staff are polite, friendly and service minded (they even drive you to the pool!) If I ever go back to Koh Samui, I d probably end up in Baan Suan Sook Resort, so I have no problem recommend it to anyone else.
Jens-Uwe Gremmels 2004-02-04 until 2004-03-04	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake What a fantastic resort! If you don´t mind being far from the beach, go for it. The low price allows for a rental motorbike, even for a full month. The new pool is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen and you surely would not expect something like this in a resort in this price category. Very important: this resort is animal-friendly!	Just a few clicks away...
Tomi Aalto 2004-01-03 until 2004-01-06	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Me and my 2year old girl did like the place..
Chrys Flounders 2004-01-03 until 2004-01-05	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Not the best accomodation during our visit to Thailand. Out side our room we had loads of chickens/cockrels which made it impossible to sleep during our stay. broken shower which made it impossible to enjoy a nice shower to winde down. Not to environment we expected in relation to the lake. A long walk or short taxi ride to the main strip.	No problems encountered. very satisfactory booking service.
Allan Stolberg/Juthathip Samungthong 2003-12-13 until 2003-12-20	Baan Suan Sook Resort, Chaweng Lake Located on a hill side at the lake west of Chaweng Beach. Idyllic and quiet. Had booked a 2 Room Bungalow, which we got, but this was not good - out-dated. Looked around and found newer Bungalows higher on the hill side (same Resort)and no problem to change. This was brand new (B4), with a larger Terrace and even cheaper ! Staff very friendly and helpful in every way. I am a coffee drinker and a water heater was supplied immediately when asked. Cheap laundry. Arranged a Jeep at lower price than I could get elsewhere. They are presently building a swimming pool on top of the hill side. Very nice and cheap, but own transportation needed to get around.	Functioned well and got confirmation within hours.
