Gorgeous resort hotel”

What a great place to stay when visiting Koh Samui. Situated in Mae Nam, it's set back from the road in a quiet location, with its own beach. The greenery and villas dotted around give it a real resort feel. The staff are very friendly and always happy to help. The restaurant has gorgeous beach views, and it's a great place to sit on the comfy sofas in the bar next door and watch the sun go down. I would definitely recommend Fairhouse Villas.

Thoroughly Relaxing Four Night Stay”

The hotel is located at Mai Nam only 20 minutes from the Koh Samui airport. As other reviewers mention the beach is quite small with coarse sand but the ocean front pool is well sized with obligatory sunken bar and well maintained garden surrounds. Our roomy sunset villa had great views, a short hike up the hill from pool and restaurant, but we never used the buggy car service needing exercise after great breakfasts and meals. The other villas that could be recommended would be the waterfront ones (#313 to 322) with two adjoining villas per shared plunge pool, especially the odd numbered ones. The one-on-one, hands on cooking class was great value and informative even for someone with fair experience with Thai cooking. The enormous meal that I prepared was served at the conclusion. The ocean in front of the hotel is well sheltered so good use was made of the free to use kayaks. All-in-all good value and similar prices for food and beverage as other 4 to 4.5 star Thai resorts.

oasis of calm”

We enjoyed our time at Fair House very much and wish we could have stayed longer. Being at Mae Nam is not a problem because you can get a free shuttle bus into Chaweng 3 times a day. We preferred the peace and quiet of Mae Nam and only went to Chaweng to shop or eat. The beach is lovely but very gritty and hard on the feet. The villas are really lovely as they are spacious and have a huge balcony and bathroom as well. Everything you need is provided, including internet. The staff are helpful and friendly.

My experience”

My husband and me chose Koh samui for our honeymoon and we're glad we selected the best resort in the island - Ban Laem Sai resort. We arrived earlier at the hotel and fortunately the staff let us check in. We got a beautiful garden villa , with an amazing bathroom and a little sitout where we would have our evening tea. The entire ambience is so beautiful and the staff are so friendly , you feel so warm and feel like home ! The Pandanus Spa was just out of this world - the thai massage is amazing and so relaxing ! We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at the resort. Thank you BAN LAEM SAI :)

Excellent ”

We went to Koh Samui at the start of Novemeber which is the start of the rainy season we found out (only rained 3/12 days though). We stayed at the Fair House for 4 days at the start of our trip. The Hotel is situated at the end of a 1km dirt road from the main road. I think there are probably better locations in Maenam to stay if you like more choice for eating out and an actual beach to relax on. The beach outside the resort you can really on use at low tide. We orignally stayed in a Spa Villa which was very adequate great bathroom and a nice little pool/spa out the back. However we had been eyeing off the suites which are situated higher up on a hill and requested to transfer to one for our 2 remaining nights. In our opinion the suites are alot better than the villas the room area was bigger, view amazing looking over the whole bay and the ability to have a spa/jacauzzi on the balcony of your suite. The suite also had a superiour audio visual set up as well. Only downsides to the suite was they are up a bit of a hill and quite a few stairs so it might be a struggle for elderly people, but the staff frequently take people up and down the resort in golf carts. The other downside is when we were staying there a new resort is being constructed next door behind the suites so its a bit noisy during the day, but it never really bothered us and you can hear any noise inside the room.

Amazing Resort”

Fair House Villas and Spa is an absolutely spectacular resort. We stayed in a Sunset Suite on New Years Eve. The accommodation was absolutely amazing. The room was spacious with a large deck overlooking the bay. There was a large jacuzzi tub on the deck. The staff were friendly and courteous. Since we were staying on New Years Eve,the hotel restaurant was closed for dinner as they were having a large New Years Eve gala (4100 bht). Since we did not want to attend the gala, we had to hire a taxi to take us into town so we could eat. But, this was the only downfall. At the stroke of midnight, fireworks were lit off by our resort and all the other resorts along the bay. Lanterns were also released. We were able to watch all of the festivities (including the resort's gala) from our deck. It was an absolutely beautiful evening and one I will never forget! Also, one of my sons wanted to head over to Koh Pha Ngan for the Full Moon Party for New Years Eve. The staff assisted him in securing his transportation to and from the island. He arrived back at the resort with memories of a lifetime!

this place was awesome”

Pleasantly surprised by this place. Its a beautiful romantic resort on a gorgeous beach, we had a room with ocean view and a Jacuzzi tub on the deck (HIGHLY recommend). The garden rooms were nice, however no view and seemed a little more crowded. We were on the hill overlooking the resort and ocean and it felt very private and secluded. Took a Jacuzzi bath overlooking the ocean morning and evening. Loved the pool area and swim up pool bar, and the breakfast buffet was the best of our trip. I am extremely picky and selective with hotels for vacations and do a ton of research. I highly recommend this place (was the best hotel of our trip) and would definitely return! It's about 20 minutes from Chaweng, however they have a shuttle and it was worth it being out of the chaos (we also stayed in Chaweng at a more expensive hotel and wished we had booked longer at Fair House Villas).

Sublime resort. The Perfect stay”

booked for 3 nights, but extended by another 3 as it was so special. had private pool villa, total luxury. hotel is in a quiter area of samui, suited us perfectly, but still plenty close by. the grounds are stunning and pool area at beach front is spectacular. resort has everything you need with a great restaurant. staff are wonderful and even baked us a cake and gave us fruit and flowers for our anniversary. will be my first choice on our return to samui.

Relaxing, peaceful & convenient ”

Greeted by wonderful hostess. Upgraded as our room was being refurbished at the time. Very peaceful at end of the busy strip but close enough to walk to restaurants etc. Enjoyed the walk down the beautiful beach. Hotel had own beds and space on beach - felt very private compared to the other hotels along. Felt safe, left shoes out all day. Lovely sand and sea. Wonderful scenery and very clean. Efficient staff. Best place we stayed in on Koh Samui island. Would definitely return.

Nice spacious & clean rooms”

The service was excellent and I love the size and cleanliness of the Villa. The beach was just a stones throw away. The pool was a good size and a great place to chill. Food was nice and the breakfast was a pretty good spread. It is away from the hussle and bussle of the streets so I found it really relaxing. Location wise, it was about 15mins away from the main town. I would definately recommend this Villa for anyone who is coming to Samui. The price is also reasonable with very friendly staff.

Fair enough. Peaceful and relaxing.”

We recently stayed at Fair House for three nights. We were given a semi-detached garden villa next to the restaurant and pool. True to the photos, stylishly decorated with a great bathroom with large bathtub, I was however initially a little disappointed to see smeared glass, a stained sofa and scratched floor on arrival. On first impressions from the ferry pier to Fair House, it is far from the picture island paradise painted by other reviewers. The road around the island is perhaps more accurately described as an extended tropical industrial estate with some restaurants and spas thrown in. Maenam itself and the road leading to Fair House is strewn with litter, derelict buildings and half constructed resorts. Anyway, the hotel itself has very well maintained grounds and it is exceptionally easy to forget about the environmental destruction of Samui whilst lounging near the pool listening to the sea. The swimming pool water is fresh and not over clorinated, it never gets too busy and it's even possible to do laps in the morning or throughout the day. The barmen are pretty cool guys and the staff in the restaurant and on reception very friendly.I have to say that we found the restaurant food to be no better than what you can buy in one of the more common road side restaurants, but more than ten times the price with service charge and tax on top. The white wine served by the glass - there was only one whilst we were there - was really also quite poor. Having said this, we thought the breakfast represented good value for money and the setting is just wonderful in the morning. A really great way to start the day! On the whole, Fair House is a beautiful resort with great staff that nevertheless fails to hit the mark on a number of points.

Great Hotel, awesome breakfast!”

we planned on staying at the fair house villas & spa for 6 nights, and then another 6 nights at the chaweng. the hotel was so brilliant and the beach was beautiful compared to dirty chaweng, so we ended up spending the whole 12 nights at fair house. free hotel shuttle bus and taxis took us to chaweng when we wanted.

Lovely resort”

one of the nicer resorts we have stayed at in koh samui. the service was great with english speaking staff. the rooms are very clean, new and sacious with great air con. it is located on a quiet beach, there is not must sand at the front on the resort, and quite a few rocks in the water but has a great pool with pool bar located next to the beach.

A wonderful stay”

Our stay at Fair House was excellent. The room was huge, and the bathroom was the biggest I've ever seen (we stayed in a Garden Villa). Very quiet location which was exactly what we wanted but still close enough to other places when we wanted to jump on a scooter and have a bit more action. The breakfast was fantastic, and staff service was great. Would definitely recommend and will definitely stay here again.

Terrific resort & location ”

I chose this resort because I wanted to stay in a pool villa with private beach access. I also read the reviews before making my decision. I didn't wish to stay in an area that was very commercial or full of tourists. I wanted a quiet and beautiful get away for rest & relaxation and that's what I got. The staff were wonderful and the spa was great too. I would go there again with no doubt. I appreciated that the price per night wasn't outrageous. I thought it reasonable. The breakfast buffet was just mind blowing there was so much to select from👍🏻❤️

Depends on who is on duty”

We stayed here for 5 days and our experience varied quite a bit depending on which staff was on duty. It seemed like they had access to very different information. The evening staff was the most unhelpful. When we were looking for a combined ferry and bus ticket to get from the hotel to Surat thani airport they said that they could not help us and we had to go to the ferry terminal ourselves. After having done some research ourselves and found an option we approached the morning/day staff, who said that they had those options available and could book for us. We were especially pleased with the service provided to us by Ann, who was the most helpful person we interacted with at Fair House. The room itself was clean and pleasant. The view was great. The drawback was that the Jacuzzi (for which we paid extra) was filled with ants and we could not use it for most of our stay. There was also noise coming from the hotel next-door until midnight. We complained, but were not offered to get moved even though there seem to be few guests at the time. The overall experience was fine, and was largely saved by a few dedicated staff members.

Solid Place”

We were very satisfied with our stay at Fair House Villas. The pool and beach were nice, restaurant excellent, and room was great. We were in a garden villa and had no complaints whatsoever.

Pure luxury”

We stayed at fair house for a few nights and loved it! It was the perfect luxury hotel to wrap up our thailand adventures. The staff are very helpful and are more than happy to pick you up in a golf buggy if you are in one of the rooms that is a bit far away from reception. They are also happy to give you a lift to the local shops if you give them a bit of notice. The rooms were great and the shower was so good I didn't want to get out.
