The Tongsai Bay Hotel

We stayed at Tongsai Bay for 3 nights at the end of our honeymoon. Had a fantastic stay. Accommodation was top notch and very roomy. The food was delicious and the setting was great. The staff were all excellent and made us feel so welcome. Highly recommended.

Love this hotel, wonderfully private location, very close to nature, huge grounds, lots of privacy, old-fashioned in a good way. All rooms have great seaviews. Lots of stairs keep you fit but buggies available for the not so mobile. Great breakfast, and fantastic drinks. Helpful reception. Not super responsive on email but that tallies with being a tad old-fashioned.

This is a wonderful family run hotel. It has a great message of being environmentally friendly. The staff is some of the most helpful and kind people I have encountered during my travels to over 30 countries. The staff takes the time out of their day to really ensure your stay is great. The food is amazing! The location and everything are wonderful and the amenities they have are top notch.

The villa was beautiful as it faced the open sea and the staff were super friendly especially the 'juice lady' who made fresh fruits and recommended a good fusion for my flu. Enjoyed the Thai themed night with cultural show as we enjoyed the excellent food buffet and fruit and soap carving which was done on the spot. Just be prepared to walk a steep staircase heading to higher villas but worth the view.

Little bit far from downtown, but very nice view and familiar atmosphere.

Pros: - Fantastic and friendly staff & service - Great views of sea and tons of greenery and open space - Large spacious rooms with lots of privacy - Thai restaurant is excellent Cons: - Taxi fare even for short distances is too much (400 Baht or SGD16 for a hardly 10 min ride) - Western rataurant & food by the pool/beach is average; not enough Weaten bar snacks and finger foods - Spa treatments are also quite expensive

We had requested for an early check- in during our reservation. We reached Tongsai Bay at half past twelve. Normal check in time for Tongsai is 2pm. The guest service staff had told us that the room that we going to stay still not available as previous guests had late check out and they trying their best to clean/tidy the room. We waited until 220pm yet the room still not ready. Leisa, General Manager of the tongsai bay had noticed us and gave us a complimentary dinner with a bottle of house wine voucher, what a surprise for us. We didn't aspect Tongsai gave us such reparation for keeping us to wait. How sweet and attentive they are! We had travelled a lot and this is the first time we received voucher due to late check in for guests! Not to mention that, all the staffs in tongsai including gardener will greet u whenever passby them. So attentive! What impressed us is how Tongsai reserved nature by not using any pesticides or chemicals fertilizers used to maintain their grounds. Po-lad bistro & bars is a must to dine in when you stay here. They had wonderful dinner menu & wine for your selection! Worth to mention is the restaurant located beside beach where you can dine under moonlight! How romantic is that! Me and my husband had a wonderful experience in eco friendly yet luxury hotel! Definitely go back again for Tongsai!

Nice spacious room with an outdoor bathtub and a spectacular view of Tongsai Bay. The hotel is beautiful and situated on a private beach and nice swimming pools (especially the half-moon pool). The staff was very friendly and courteous. One of the best hotels I've ever stayed in.

Amazing place with in the jungle Nice and (very) quiet hotel great vila’s great staff Location is a bit off Chong Mong small strip and beach that will be the only downside as you will need to walk up and down the nerrow road that is not a great experience with small kids So we had to take a taxi 150B for 2 min drive to Chong Mong Food in the hotel is very expensive the Thai restaurant is great ! But the pool restaurant is not great at all but super expensive. Overall a great hotel for a relaxing vacation

This is a world class resort. Superb service. We will be back again and again. I've traveled through Asia for 30 years as a business person and holdayer. Tongsai is subtly, high class, super friendly with all the little touches you would expect in a 6 star business hotel. Please don't tell anyone😊😊😊😉

Little hot at the breakfast area. Marine activities are fantastic. Very private beach and clam ocean. Quite relaxing hotel.

Fantastic place with a very friendly and efficient staff.

We stayed at the Tongsai Bay for the second time in 3 years. We loved the 9 days - the staff and the location made it a perfectly relaxed and enjoyable holiday. We like the private setting, the unintrisvness of the staff whilst still always "being ther for us", the high level of detail and care. The quality of the food and the location that makes you feel safe and gives you peace of mind.

I picked this place as the "sit on a beach" portion of our trip. I wish it was the only place I booked in Thailand for our two weeks, absolutely stunning. Immediately upon arrival you realize that you are in a special place, they greet you with essential oil ice towel and a very refreshing cold tea. The concierge takes you to your room (we had a seafront cottage) and shows you all of the amenities in the room. The view off the cottage was amazing, could have stayed right there. The beach front restaurant has incredible Thai and American food. One of the best burgers and tom yum soup I had all trip. The included breakfast was AMAZING everything you could ever want, best lattes and cappuccinos I had all trip. The big difference to me were the employees. Everywhere else in Thailand people are friendly but seems to have their own agenda. Wanting to sell you something. In tongsai bay, I genuinely felt welcomed and they were very happy to see us every morning. Best resort stay of my life.

We had a great time at this property, even though there was renovation going on when we stayed there. We were looking for a relaxing vacation and we got it here. Upon check-in, one of the staff took us to a cottage located up a hill with steps too steep for us to climb but after we requested for a reassignment of one near the pool, they kindly obliged to our request. I thought that because we were there during the low season, they were able to comply to our request. The food was good and the service was excellent. A great place to be.

We enjoyed our stay at the hotel very much. We got upgraded and stayed in the seafront cottage. Well.. the room was on a hilltop and a little climbing to get there, but it was always well worth the climb :) Perfect for people seeking for privacy. The politeness and commitment of the staff was on the top.. probably the best we have ever experienced... Our room was made up twice a day and fresh fruits and cookies were nice too. Loved the private and clean beach, with very attentive beachboys and fresh coctails. Breakfast was also a wow :) Enjoyed every detail.. special greetings to the fruit lady Pu, who always greeted with the widest smile :D WIll definitely come back some time.. Kärt & Kert Kalev

We loved this hotel, staff were really friendly and efficient, in fact I'd have to be very picky to find even minor faults with this hotel, loved the location and thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Tongsai bay hotel

Althought its our first time in Koh Samui, we have very high expectation for our hotel in this type of resort. We are seeking a hotel with tranquility and peace throughout our stay, Tongsai Bay is exactly the perfect hotel! Hotel is clean, staff is very friendly and helpful, snacks and bottle water always get replanished, even our transport is very well arranged. Except food, not much selection, and mosquito, everything else is very well within our expectation. We will definatey visit again and highly recommended to our friends and family.

Private beach is good. You can see very quiet sea. But it you wanna spend much time in Chaweng, recommend you to stay the other hotel. From hotel to Chaweng, taxi fee is 400THB.(Resort Price). In addition, all most of all rooms and facility have stairs, and slope way to the room. It is not kindness for the disable people. Plus, a lot mosquito thus we can't use outside of the bath and beds. I strongly recommend you to book beach side room.

The viewpoint villa was perfect for a family with 5 adults and a 10 month old baby. The view from the villa was fantastic and service by the staff was excellent. I would definitely book this hotel again when going to Koh Samui.
