Cape Fahn Hotel – Private Islands Samui

This was one of the best holidays we have ever had. We couldn’t recommend it more.

Absolutely gorgeous and a great stay. Pros: Newer, reserved clean beach, pool in room, spacious, quiet, safety, helpful staff Cons: Mainland access, very slow service at beach cafe (except Tony Da, he was awesome), housekeeping oversights We were upgraded upon arrival from ocean view villa to the horizon view and that’s got to be the best villa. Incredibly gorgeous view, very private shielded, stairs down to private sofa at dock, pretty sunlight near dusk. The pool is shallow (3.5 ft) and stayed perfectly clean. The room is large with great air conditioning and the big bed was very comfortable. We requested 2 beds far in advance of our stay and only upon arrival learned that 1 would be a metal cot. Unfortunately the metal cot was painful and smelled mildewy. We asked housekeeping to make up the sofa instead, but those sheets had a stain of something dark and sticky. The bathroom is very spacious with 2 closets and 2 sink spaces on either side. The shower was large but needed to be cleaned more thoroughly around the bottom edges as there was dark buildup . Please be aware that shower water gets unsafely hot. The island is hilly but they offer buggy rides (very easy to ask). Daytime there’s a small 4 person boat for the 2-3 min journey from the mainland, it can be dirty and on our last day our luggage got soaked. At night there’s a tall truck that’s much easier. There’s a busy beach club across the water (semi-walkable through low water). Breakfast is PHENOMENAL!!

Beautiful, small resort on a private island. Access is by a small motor boat - it’s very quick, only a couple minutes, but during rough seas/windy days, it can be a bit precarious. Beautiful villa with private pool was spacious and clean. Lots of mosquitos though - so really couldn’t enjoy having the sliding doors open to the villa. Didn’t explore the beach much as our private pool was lovely. Nice breakfast selection daily.

Elegant and secluded villas and all the amenities one would need. The location is simply breathtaking. The small private beach has the whitest sand and clearest water. It is a perfect escape but there is also easy access to the mainland if you wish to dip into the action. There staff are very warm and helpful, particularly on reception and customer relations
