About the hotel:
A great Bungalow in Samui. We had a beach bungalow which was large & clean the only thing not in the bungalow was a safety deposit box and you had to pay 10TB every time you used it in reception! Pool lovely,clean & large. Beach nice and always able to get sun beds! Breakfast nice and a good choice for everyone. These Bungalows are quiet and right at the end of the bust road so you will need to get taxi s into the town (5mins) walking would take around 15mins. Altogether lovely bungalows and would definatly stay again.
About the reservation service:
Easy, no problems with booking

About the hotel:
We was recurring customer in this hotel since the last 10 Years, but no more again since this trip. First Bungalow never take care about your room reservation request, The last three years we have requested with two month in adavance, we never have the room requested when arrive, all time negotiation and have the requested room in the followings days. You will be charged to return to the airport and if the coach was not on Airport, you will never recived the promised money back for the service. If the Beach in front still a very good one on Samui, the price / Service level arrived at ground state! The good is good but very expensive regarding the quality you paid for a 4 stars in a 2 stars hotel. The price of the beer, coke and food is very expensive. A good recommandation, take a other hotel in Chaweng Beach, and enjoy the Beach in front of this Hotel, no use theyr service.
About the reservation service:
Very good as habit, no support at all from First Bungalow, Bad as habit

About the hotel:
Friendly and welcoming staff. Spacious rooms, clean and nice. Pool area very nice but for us, with a 6 year old, the pool was too deep. I could hardly reach the bottom with my toes. The beach was secluded and private but with alot of beach vendors. The hotel is a bit off the shopping and restaurants in Chaweng. I would rate this a good 3star hotel.
About the reservation service:
The booking was excellent!

About the hotel:
When traveling to Asia always remember to have low expectations...however this is difficult to do when paying 150 euros a night. It was our dream to stay in a beach bungalow, but when we arrived it was very rustic, smelled musty, and needed updating. Breakfast was included, but we often slept in as it left more to be desired...plus the wild dogs that were always running around the food service area and the pool... After one night on the beach we had a look at the pool side bungalow and were pleased at the new renovations, quietness, and cleanliness of this location...and it was half the price! Overall it was an OK experience...perhaps I will look further down Chaweng Beach next time..
About the reservation service:
Booking service was great and always got back to me regarding questions! Thanks!
