We stayed at Bandara while we got married on the island. We stayed in one of the Villas which was perfect and very romantic. Overall our stay was very enjoyable. The only complaint we had was while we had to wait for our room to be ready no one offered any water or refreshments.. and when we asked we got charged. Also we ordered a room service breakfast (eggs benedict) one morning and the food was just awful. But a great place otherwise.

Reservation service:

Very reliable.

As a whole impressions of hotel the good. Beautiful territory for which Nna reception of visitors well look after there is an employee speaking Russian that is very pleasant, as at me not so good English. Excellent breakfasts, above any praises! The resort in 1 km from village of fishermen where there are restaurants, massage salons and souvenir benches is located. If you do not rent transport it is far enough for the pedestrian walk. But in hotel there is a transfer on Chaveng 2 times a day the Beach a little неухожен, mattresses on plank beds both and at pool demand replacement from the sea or repair. And the most unpleasant - took place small larceny in number which I have found out. When collected things at departure from hotel. I have left the written claim in number, but is not assured that it has reached a management.

Reservation service:

Excellent service! The fast and operative decision of questions, a correctness. Interests of clients above all. Separate thanks of Ms. Bee with which I could communicate.

We enjoyed staying at Bandara resort although prices for food were expensive therefore we chose to eat outside or buy snacks from beach hawkers. We liked the location which is on one of the more quiet beaches of Koh Samui. I would surely recommend Bandara resort.

Bandara is beautiful!It s everything, exept for the expensive restaurant at the beach.It is not increadible charming, but with children to make things easier. This is great! Fishermansvillage only 6 minutes walking distance is a great little village to eat and do shopping. Bo phut beach do not have the crystal clear water, but it has a nice beach with not so many sales men.Chaweng, just 10 minutes with taxi is awful, with hundreds of salesmen, noice and to long to walk to get into the water. Its noicy and horrible. Just great shopping! My first time in 1991 was Chaweng beautiful! The world changes!

Reservation service:

I do not like that it is included one room at other places than the hotel I want to book. If I could get one free night at Bandara, that would be perfect.

Excellent hotel. Every little detail noticed - room, landscape, service. Everything was just perfect. Very friendly and attending staff will take care of every need you have. Rooms are spacious, very clean, well maintained. Gardens and landscape are extraordinary. The hotel s restaurants are looking good, breakfast was wonderful and one time we had dinner and it great too (One the best Pad-Thai I had in Thailand). Walking distance to the village where all sorts of other restaurants and shops are located.

Reservation service:

Excellent. Fast and reliable.

Accommodation and facilities:

Actually,we stayed at Bandara 4 weeks, as we prolonged our prebooked stay for 3 weeks more. A lot of positive things to be mentioned about the resort, - Spacious, beautiful pool and recreation area, - Plenty of sunbeds, never crowdy anyplace around the 3 pools or at the beach. - More than enough chiices for breakefast - Clean towels every day for use at pools, - Fruit and drinking water delivered daily. But being there as long as we did, we also discovered some negative experiences, - Trays containing leftovers, plates etc. after being serving meals on rooms, remained in corridors or terraces for up to 4 days without being picked up of the ever-around-walking tenants. Disgusting and stinking. - Hotel info and internet ads make a point of the manager Mr.Berger, saying he hope to see you around ! Well, after having been there 27 days hardly being out of the resort one single day, we haven t the slightest idea of who this important person is, or what he is occupied with. - As mentione, very good breakefast, but we tried the Chom Dao beach restaurant once we arrive, and it was nothing to be impressed with. We therefor had our dinners outside the hotel, plenty og cheaper and better choices. - Free internet may be better called no internet because we had so much trouble with the connecton that we finally made use of internet cafes nearby. The routine for having access to net was hoplessly difficult, left alone the speed, better use your mob.tel. Alltogether, wonderful place for sun and swimming, kind staff and comfortable rooms, but for the price charged one could expect better standard in some aspect.

Reservation service:

Booking service with Sawadee very efficient (as usual)

Accommodation and facilities:

I had a vacation in Bandara Resort and Spa for 6 days. It s a quite good resort. Near fishment village, not remote and has some stores nearby, very convenient. The environment is good, lots of tropical trees and flowers in the reosrt. Beach closes to resort and good although Bophut is not the best beach in Samui. Facilities are OK, free internet service, spa, diving shop and rent a car service are B+. But diving shop is a small store with old equipment, not valued the price, not recommend. We had stayed at the deluxe room and villa. Firt day we entered the bathroom, there were many ants in the bathtub. Beside, we had found some dirtiness on the bedsheet. It reflected that the housekeeping was not enought cautious. On the other hands, the staff were enthusiastic and always tried the best to finish your request. However, lots of time they had no good communication among themselves. We needed to change the room to villa and already gave the voucher to the reception when we checked-in, but they still believed we checked out after staying 2N at deluxe room. They stopped our key to enter the room and the bill-signing service. We needed to explain what was our arrangement for many times to different staff. They seemed to understand what happened. I think this is the reason why Bandara is four star resort. Improvement is needed to make better service.

Reservation service:

excellent, perfect, A+
