プンプリーダ ビーチ リゾート (Punnpreeda Beach Resort)

For the budget hotel was good - breakfast OK in range but outside & staff not too diligent in keeping area clear of flies. Reception staff very good; bar/restaurant staff not so good. Big downer was the location - between 4 piers so lots of boat traffic resulting in less than pristine beaches & sea. Beach very narrow & pretty empty considering it's peak season. Nightlife - forget it - there isn't any to speak of. Couple of nice restaurants & a few empty bars. Nice place in a poor location - Bangrak Beach is NOT the place to be !

Close to the airport and to the pier for those who are interested in snorkeling or diving in Koh Tao. Friendly and helpful staff.

Staff friendly and are nice help me to rent motorbike, help me to book a ticket

Hôtel clean with nice rooms and very comfy beds nice breakfast with sea views and the employees are friendly and it's located just next to the boat pier express wich is very convenient to travel to pangang. I totally recommend this hotel! Great value for money!

Very nice amenities, even if the pool and the restaurant are very small. Very helpful and friendly staff. Beautiful sunset view from the restaurant. The area is however quite boring and you need a car or a bike to go around. There are however couple of good restaurants in the neighbourhood. Taxi is very expensive The quality of the sea is not the best since the resort is situated between two piers. Los flying aircrafts are almost an attraction itself.

Very clean and quiet, very nice staff! Perfect for short term stay (2-3 days) About 15 minutes drive to epi center of Chaweng.

We enjoyed our stay here staff were very helpful and friendly and any minor problems were sorted immediately The only ongoing problem which applies to all the beachfront hotels is dogs wandering on the beach and doing what dogs do although our hotel staff went and cleared up the mess quickly it is still offputting when you are eating what is a good breakfast. I spoke to the manager who then liased with other beachfront hoteliers and as we left they were arranging a meeting with the local councillor to try and sort out this particular problem. I do hope so as we will be staying here again next year

Lovely comfortable room. Great staff. Shame about the weather!

Walking distance to the pier. This place is fantastic!

Really great place to stay. Having lived in Bangrak it was nice to come to a great hotel to be a tourist for a change!

The pool and bar area were really nice, but the room was quite dirty and dark and the bathroom was awful like a cell, also the light switch for the bathroom was next to the sink along with a plug socket you can't avoid not getting them wet whilst washing

The manager Ryan went above and beyond his call of duty to help us manage and change am error in our arrival date. In addition he put us in a nice bungalow. All the first floor rooms are detached bungalow that are spacious , clean, nicely decorated. Since there are no common wLls in the bungalows it is peaceful and quite. Breakfast was basic but good. Fresh,fruits, juices, salads, muili, yogurt, cereals, and eggs seved in a variety of ways. The view ; from the pool is nice -right on the beach. The staff here are what make this. Place stand apart. The manager Ryan is a one of a kind hospitality employee who makes sure a guest is taken care of. Safe travels.

Nice beachfront pool and restruant..staff friendly 5 mins to airport

I really loved this hotel the staff was sooooo friendly and accommodating. Great value for money!

The outside of the room and atmosphere of hotel is just ok. Location os good and near the beach. Te room is bit old and dirty. Toulet have stinky smell from waste tube. the The phillipino reception have no service mind.

Awsome staff and service,would stay here again without thinking twice

Perfect for the tew time we spent

It was a last minute booking to fill a gap between returning to Koh Samui or remaining on Koh Tao for an extra couple of days, we chose to return to Samui and wanted to try someplace other than Lamai from our previous week. We chose Bo Phut for closer proximity to the airport. The Bo Phut area is certainly off the tourist trail, but after almost three weeks of travel we wanted to just stay near the hotel for rest and relaxation. So if you think the area is covered by tee shirt shops and souvenir stores, you chose the wrong area. We were only there for two nights and found someplace to have dinner difficult, we found a delicious restaurant nearby, and ate there both nights, neither disappointed. The hotel room was a 10 out of 10, service and staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was very spacious, king sized bed fantastically comfortable, bathroom very modern, spacious and clean. We even asked for a late checkout as our flight was later in the afternoon, they gave us an extra hour at no charge and did it with a smile on their face. Fantastic two days, thank you Punnpreeda and all your staff. Of the six hotels we have stayed at, this one was by far our greatest experience in Thailand. Might I suggest, if like us, you are travelling to Bangkok after reading my Punnpreeda review. DO NOT stay at the WATANA Hotel. Where the Punnpreeda is a 10, Watana is a 1. I can't wait to write my review on this dump when we leave Bangkok!

We had a great time! The resort is in a quiet part of Samui, but there's great food available at the hotel, as well as easy walking distance. We hired a scooter from Punnpreeda, which was a great way to get around the island cheaply, and not stress about being ripped off from dodgy hire places. The pool area is really lovely to relax and get some sun. Also to have some drinks and a lovely ocean view. The green pool tiles were slightly off putting in the beginning, as I'm used to pools being blue, and green associated with being dirty, however it does actually look good with the gardens of the resort, and the pool was cleaned and maintained every day. As were the rest of the grounds. And once again the staff were amazing, a few of them had very good English, including the managers and some of the bar staff, so communication was easy, and they had great knowledge to help you out with anything you need. One tip though, pay as you go at the restaurant/bar to avoid extra service charges that can be a nasty surprise at the end of your trip.

Ok. Not as the picture show. But is fair.
