"I was skeptical about the standard of this resort since I got it at a very low price. Next thing was its location in Mae Nam Beach, which never really had a reputation as the top destinations in Koh Samui. HOWEVER, I was awed by the view,and the standard of the resort when I arrived. The beauty of the view, as well as its discreet location situated beside W hotel RIGHT ON THE EDGE of the beach, is unparalleled by the resorts on Chaweng Beach. The simplicity but aesthetic value of its design and furnishing, as well as the lay out of the whole resort was very relaxing. And I enjoyed it thoroughly. Please DO NOT miss this Gem!!! "

"This newly build hotel on Mae Nam beach is the perfect place for people looking for a quiet beach resort only a cab/scooter ride away from the busy places on Koh Samui. The rooms are spacious, the bed is huge! and comfy. The staff is kind, helpful and nothing is too much to ask for. English is well spoken by the (also European) staff. The breakfast is great, I had lunch and dinner several times in the restaurant and all the dishes were good. I would definitely recommend this place I you are looking for relaxation on a wonderful beach in a great environment. "

"As a family we had 2 bungalows for 8 nights. It was beautiful wandering through the gardens to get to the beach and swimming pool. The rooms were spacious and luxurious. Mae nam was very quiet, a great selection of restaurants in the same street. Lots of taxi services available to other beaches. A great location for a quiet hassle free holiday. We really loved our stay at Pinnacle."

" From the moment we were picked up at the airport by the hotel's minivan service, to the time we were dropped off, service was seamless.The resort facilities and each and each & every staff member met and surpassed all of our expectations. The resort grounds and our pool villa were immaculate. Every morning, without fail, a housekeeper knocked on our door to ask if our room needed service. Our villa had the comfiest beds with cloud-like pillows and duvets inside, and a huge chaise and 2 lounge chairs on the patio. There were many electrical outlets inside and outside of our room and the electricity never cut out even once, not even during storms. Linens were pristine, and there were toiletries aplenty. Every last detail was thought of; even white bathrobes and room slippers were provided. Both my friend and I were very impressed with the resort's attention to detail. The breakfast buffet had both western and Thai offerings, and service was stellar through and through. The concierge even gave us 10% discount meal & beverage coupons. The resort staff were always happy to help and acknowledged every request efficiently and courteously. Happy hour was from 4pm to 6pm and 100 baht cocktails were on special. At lunchtime, there was a krapow personal pan pizza & your choice of soda for 140 baht. Everything I had from the resort's restaurant was delicious! The resort's wifi signal was far superior to my internet on the mainland, not that anyone would actually need wifi on such a beautiful, serene stretch of beach. While the beach wasn't white sand, it was very peaceful, unlike the busier Chaweng area, and Mae Nam Beach is stunning in its own right, offering a breathtaking sunrise view as well as a spectacular view of Koh Phangan. Another thing I noticed was the diversity of hotel guests. There were solo travelers, couples, families, and groups of friends staying at the resort. I had some unexpected work to do and thankfully there were computers in the lobby. "

"i would recommend this hotel to people of all ages. the staff was very friendly and always greeted us with a smile. the food at the restaurant was good but as you would expect pay a little bit more then you would at a local restaurant. the location was a bit out of the way of all the action but would definitely recommend renting a motorbike (and can do so through the hotel) rather than using taxis as expenses can add up after repetitive use. the rooftop pool was nice as it gave you the option to swim other than having to head to the beach. pool did have a decent amount of chlorine in it though. the rooms were very clean and offered everything that one would need, including 2 free bottles of water daily. the beds were a good size but ive slept on a better mattress. mae nam is a much quieter place on the island but it doesn't take long to get too bo phut or chewang, where more of the action and nightlife is located. the hotel itself is very modern and environmentally friendly. also a travel agent is located right across the street and a 7/11 is only a 2 minute walk down to the right when you walk out the hotels front entrance. a local restaurant i would recommend when wanting to switch things up from the hotel restaurant is uncle noi's down the street to the right when you walk out the front doors of the hotel. great food and affordable prices. will definitely stay here again if i come back to ko samui!"

"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."

"In new lapaz choose rather better rooms as the quality rises faster than the price. We got second best room offered and it was very nice in good price. The top room with the direct view on the see are even better. Being honest the food was quite average but the location and hospitality of owner is enough gratitude. Small hint: it looks better than at the entrance so dont be scary and give it a shot☺☺☺."

"We chose to take the mini-van offered at the Airport to anywhere on the island for 150 baht per person, and it turns out this saved us 300 baht from what the Hotel would have charged. We were greeted with a drink and cool towel and the Reception staff were very helpful with all our questions throughout our stay, as this was our first time to Samui. Our room was huge, with two double beds, and as well as a welcoming bowl of fruit there are some other nice touches that appear during your stay - I don't want to spoil the surprise, but they are thoughtful additions that we have not experienced anywhere else before or since in Thailand (and we had no problem with wi-fi, which was free!). We enjoyed the varied choice of breakfasts that were freshly prepared to order, but didn't use the Restaurant in the evening - it looked a little pricey for us - but there are half a dozen very nice Restaurants within 10 minutes walk. We used the free shuttle (make sure you book in advance) to Fisherman's Village and this was a nice change as there is lots more choice, and a street market in the evening - we paid 300 baht for the taxi return. We took the 10 minute walk along the beach to the Ferry to book our tickets, and when we were leaving the Hotel provided a car to get us there free of charge. Although this was our most expensive Hotel in our stay in Thailand I would recommend it as it is in a serene location and the staff and extra touches made us feel like we were really having a special holiday!"
