Probably the best Thai food we have ever had in the upstairs restaurant. The breakfast buffet is only second to Mandarin Oriental. All in all this place is value for money.

W not as wonderful
Great view of the beach, great BF selection and nice private pool villa. We had inclusive package of cocktails, spa, and float me up! However, was a bit disappointed with the reception as our hostess Ammie just left us at the hot not air conditioned lobby without giving us a word on how long we have to wait! She wasn’t informative about the hotel activities.
We stayed at a jungle view villa:The tub tap water was yellow with sand, which wasn’t cleaned the next day! This is not acceptable for five star W resorts! This not our first W stay. Too bad for the little details not cared for~ .

It was my second time staying at W Koh Samui since my honeymoon 10 years back - this time, with my daughter as well. Staffs were super fantastic and supportive and overall quality of facilities was also great. I would absolutely stay again when I visit Koh Samui in near future. Highly recommended for family vacation, honeymoon or short getaway with your friends.

Fantastic resort with a great beach
Stayed at this hotel for few nights as a family of 4 in 2 rooms and really enjoyed it. Each room has its own pool which is wonderful, the beach is very exclusive and you can watch the sunset with a cocktail in hand. Breakfast was superb and staff very friendly.
Only issue we found was the limited choices of restaurant since they are a bit short staffed, and the only restaurant available for the evening was rather pricey, but on the flip side it “forced” us to explore restaurants outside the resort

Good location and sandy beach
W’s airport transfer sent us to a wrong hotel which wasted 45min of our valuable time. Then we both got food poisoning at Nomu restaurant. We ended spent entire vacation in our room. This is a big disappointment as we looked forward to this Wedding Anniversary celebration. W Samui got a lot of work to do regarding the basic stuff like food and beverage and services.

We booked this hotel for my wife's birthday,
we paid thousands of dollars in advance (~8K $), a week before our holiday we had a tragedy in our family ( my brother in law had passed away from a sudden illness ).
I cancelled my vacation and ask the hotel to consider the family tragedy and refund my vacation or at least reschedule it.
ooh ,they used very polite language but bluntly refused to give me any of my money back.
So they might be a Fancey hotel but with zero compassion and all their fancy language is a façade to their greed.

NOT A 5 STAR RESORT
The W Koh Samui is nowhere near a real 5-star hotel. Service is basically non-existent, management is poor, and the facilities do not match the price they charge.
On the beach, there is no one to assist you: no staff to hand out towels, no one taking food or drink orders, nothing resembling proper luxury service. Breakfast is chaotic — far too few tables for the number of guests, and most mornings we couldn’t even find a place to sit. The same issue happens at the pool: it is very small with a ridiculous number of sunbeds compared to the number of rooms. With two children, we often ended up without a single sunbed available.
Activities are also poorly handled: we wanted to rent a kayak, but only one was working while all the others were broken. We tried to book a table at the Japanese restaurant inside the resort and they couldn’t even accommodate us, another sign of bad organization.
Overall, the service is terrible, far from what you expect from a 5-star property. The only positive note is the girl at reception, who was helpful and genuinely kind. Apart from her, the entire place feels more like a mediocre 4-star at best.
I would not recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a true luxury experience — it simply doesn’t deliver.

Ein wunderschönes Hotel zum relaxen und genießen! Man hat als Hotelgast seine eigene Villa mit eigenem Infinity Pool und ein Privatstrand mit eigener Bucht… ein großer Gemeinschafts-Pool wird gerade noch fertig gestellt. Aber das Besondere neben der tollen Ausstattung, der atemberaubenden Aussicht und dem coolen Ambiente, ist definitiv das superfreundliche, hilfsbereite und immer gut gelaunt Personal!!! Wir hatten eine unvergessliche Zeit und können dieses Hotel zu 100 % weiterempfehlen!!!
