BangPo Resort

Beautiful location with a stunning private beach. Absolutely gorgeous scenery. Staff are so lovely and welcoming. Everything was perfect! So many lovely restaurants nearby also. The resort has its own area at the front with beach supplies, free coffee and cold bottled water with some snacks like bananas and toast, spreads. It was amazing having everything so convenient and spending so much time at the beach with everything we needed at hand. Plenty of little stores nearby for snacks/drinks/toiletries. Highly recommend this resort such good value for money.

No issues, we loved staying here would recommend to anyone staying in Koh Samui.

Our villa was situated at a quiet part at the end of the long beach, where there was still the fishermen’s village vibe and not so many bars. When you swim out for about 200m at high tide, you can snorkel at the fringe reef. In the rainy season the visibility is not optimal, but still nice to do and have so close by. And we loved the little Thai restaurant next to our villa, Khanom Jeen Shop, with the very friendly owner and kitchen help. We had our Thai breakfast there nearly every day and sometimes also lunch. We also went to the main building of the resort every day to chill there (200-300m walk). The resort offers complementary drink water, coffee and toast with bananas, Nutella or peanut butter and they had clean toilets and a beach shower, which was nice to use after swimming in the sea. Our kids could also play with the toys that they offered and I found a good book at the bookshelf to read during our stay. In the low season the bar was closed, but the 2 supermarkets nearby provided us with all we needed.

The busy road in front of the villa was very loud, but I was happy our kids could sleep in the room closest to the road while we took the one at the see side. There was no automatic cleaning of the villa, but as soon as we asked for it, they provided cleaning so for us that was ok.

The location was great, with the beach walkable and restaurants nearby. If you rent a scooter, you will be able to go anywhere on the island. The staff were super friendly and always smiled at us. We wanted to go to a few more sites after we checked out, and they let us store our luggage there. The resort common area had delicious tea, coffee, bread, and bananas with a fully stocked kitchen. Everything was super clean, so I felt really comfortable during my whole stay.

The staff - they were so friendly upon arrival. Came to help us with our luggage and brought it up to our rooms for us in a little wheel barrow.

The room was dated. There were ants inside the apartment in the sink and over by the fridge. There was also clusters of small bugs in certain parts of the wall. It just didn’t seem very clean or modern. I wouldn’t say this was value for money whatsoever. Also bear in mind it is about 30/40 minutes drive from most areas / attractions you will want to visit.
