Whilst on a recent trip, we had a look at the famous Wave at Samui, this is a small, friendly and clean Bar come restaurant that offers reasonably priced accommodation and was a real hit with the young students who were travelling as part of a year out of education.
If you wander along Chaweng High Street, there are many hotels that would suit any budget, these range from similar establishments such as the wave at Samui (with its travellers library) to the trendy boutique hotel known as the Library, this stunning, stylish boutique hotel that is situated on Chaweng Beach and which offers a sophisticated level of accommodation, complete with Gym and Spa.
We recently stayed at the Centara Grand (Chaweng), this hotel (pictured in the header of this page) was simply stunning and was one of the ‘mid – high’ price range hotels. As part of our package, we upgraded from the standard rooms to the club floor which allowed us access to the club lounge throughout the day and evening. In the lounge, the excellent and very friendly staff offered FREE tea, coffee and soft drinks throughout the day and between the hours of 5 – 7, there was a cocktail hour when all the alcoholic drinks were also free, including Champagne. Hor dourves and canopes were also served during this time.
