As we booked in as a honeymoon couple - the hotel surprised us by leaving a chilled bottle of french champagne and glasses for us to enjoy. Nothing better than drinking champagne whilst in the pool looking at the magnificent view over the ocean.
Buffet breakfast was fantastic everyday (with most dishes changing each day).
It was cheaper to have the hotel drive us to the airport than getting a taxi. The airport taxi service is a set price rip-off of 500 Baht from airport to hotel and 400 Baht from hotel to airport (using hotel car). Price comparison - hire a Jeep (700 Baht per day with TA Travel - go direct as it will be 1,000 Baht through hotel for the same car). Taxi's are expensive in Koh Samui (hotel does provide day-time free transport).
Chewang Beach - will test your sanity. Not somewhere we wanted to spend any time whatsoever. But if you do visit a must-do dinner is at Zico's Brazillian Grill & Bar. Fantastic show, food and buffet concept.
- Restaurant Tip : Stay in one night and eat at the restaurant - fantastic food. It was so good we ate there 2 nights out of 5. Zico's in Chaweng Beach is also worth a night out - could not fault the food, service or entertainment.
Great Stay

The resort changed their name to Penninsula again.
But, their survice and hotel condition/cleanliness are not match with pennimsula standard. The resort is great place only if you are looking foe quiet vacation.

We had read lots of mixed reviews about this hotel. We had a fabulous holiday and could not find any faults at all. The staff could not do enough for you, the food was good, and the views are magnificent. We would definitely return.
- Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Hire a jeep and go into the mountains. Views are amazing, roads are bumpy.

Highly recommended private resort.
- Travel tip : Use the shuttle service or rent a car to get out and try other restuarants -- you'll want to spend all your time in the hotel but you'll miss all the good food!
A nice hotel

Taxi from airport to hotel is expensive, 400B for only 10 mins drive. book local agent for pick up service if you can.
- Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Join half day local tour (morning / afternoon)only 400-500B, sight seeing on the island.
Outside the island would be about 1600-2000B, depends the location, remember to bargin the price (about 300B deduction)

Overall we enjoyed the hotel enormously, however guests should be aware that its star rating does not match the level of service you would expect from a 5 star hotel.
- Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Excellent access to diving trips around Ko Samui.
