พนักงานบริการดีมาก ห้องพักสะอาดดี ข้างๆมีก่อสร้าง โรงแรมสวยร่มรื่น อาหารอร่อยราคาสูงไปนิดสำหรับนักท่องเที่ยวชาวไทยแต่ต่างชาติโอเคเหมาะสมกับการบริการ แต่โดยรวมโอเค เครื่องดื่มมีการเอาสัปปะรดที่เสียบไว้ในแก้วคนอื่นที่กินแล้วมาล้างแล้วขายใหม่แก้วต่อไป โรงแรมระดับนี้ไม่ควรวนผลไม้ในคอกเทล โดยรวมคือดี โรงแรมติดหาด อีกฝั่งติดตลาดหาของกินง่ายมีแฟมมิลี่มาคหน้าโรงแรม โรงแรมจะยาวหน่อยแต่ร่มรื่น

Beautiful hotel closed in between a construction site and some run down properties at the other side, which gives out onto the beach. Pool not really suitable for adults and when there is a full house not everybody could have a sun bed. Breakfast extensive but no possibility to sit close to or on the beach, which you can do for dinner and is enjoyable. Good massage facilities

I enjoyed staying here so much! Very convenient location, good access to restaurants, shopping areas and bars. And close to airport too! Few steps to walk to the awesome Chewang Beach! The staff here is very friendly. We asked for transportation service to another hotel, and it turned out reasonably priced and nice vehicle --- so convenient! Only downside is that the WiFi in our room wasn't working during our stay. We bought a 7-days SIM card at the airport so it's OK for us without the WiFi. We recommend this hotel to anyone wants to experience the best of Samui! Will come again when we visit here next time

Wonderfully spacious rooms. Direct access to white sandy beach and walking distance to amazing food and nightlife. This is the perfect spot on Chaweng Beach road.

We loved how beautiful this hotel was, full of character whilst also super clean, comfortable bed, brilliant location (right on the beach). The breakfast was great, they put on an amazing spread every day. Super friendly staff. We had a power cut on our last night and they made sure we had a bright lamp in our room until it came back on. Couldn’t recommend more! The hotel was right off the street but the rooms are so quiet. It was perfect.

It is not an adults only hotel and that was the first disappointment because we booked it precisely for that reason, they should not offer it like that because I saw children every day of my stay. The hotel is very well maintained and the rooms are large and spacious, very nice and clean, the breakfast is very good, the beach is not the best, the water hits your knees if you are lucky, there are better beaches with paid sun loungers, you should wear earplugs because the noise from the clubs is very loud, I did not like that before 5 pm they start collecting all the sun loungers and if you are in the pool they sweep your face to make you leave and the employees change their attitude so you leave because they should be doing their job of setting tables for dinner making guests who are not having dinner and want to enjoy the sunset on the beach and the pool that closes at 7 pm feel like second-class guests. It should be somewhat equitable, half the tables are for dinner and the other half are for those who have just arrived and beach lovers.

Again very friendly staff which is always there for yoy.

The room was so big and nicely decorated with your own balcony. Far from the water. The beach area is quite small and not really swimmable as it is very shallow. You can walk down for bigger beach. It was very loud at night until 4 am but not hotels fault it is the area in which it is located. The food was very good for reasonable prices. Make sure to pay as you go as we had some issues with our drink bills. Not very accessible as there are many stairs and ramps to the restaurant and beach. Breakfast buffet was very good.

Great staff. Friendly smiley and very helpful.

Super convenient area close to the main busy part of Chaweng Beach without the noise. Excellent pool with access to beach and plenty of beach chairs for use. Breakfast was varied with thai and western options.

Great hotel, huge rooms and lovely staff.

First things first: All the staff at this property have been super-friendly and responsive. I saw other reviews that complained about the staff. Not sure why. Maybe older. Why am I giving this a 1-Star review? Because the hotel simply isn't what's advertised. This is by no means a "4-Star Resort". It's maybe a 3-star hotel, and an old one at that. If you are a backpack tourist, and you get this for $40: OK! But I paid more than I paid for 5-star resorts in places like Phuket or Bangkok. The beach is horrible. You are not at the open sea, but in a shallow lagoon. You could wade 200m out, climb over a damn, and get to the sea. Yay! One towel a day max? Not enough beach chairs? That's 4-star? Breakfast is good, but the regular restaurant is bad. Cold and flavorless food is hard to do with Thai food, but they do it. Oh, and it is loud, because you are right next to the airport. Worst part: It is all old and run down. The place needs to be renovated badly. To give you an idea: I slept in my clothes, because the room was so run down. Everything smells bad. No AC in the bath. Internet doesn't work. When I told the staff I was cutting my losses and was moving, they told me I couldn't change the reservation. Look: I am not getting what I paid for, so I am leaving. In the end, Expedia reimbursed me, because it was so horrible. They should delist this place as 4-star. Chaweng is also awful, unless you are into smoking cannabis and getting drunk as cheap as possible. Avoid!

Vi har hatt det så utrolig fint på Dara og skulle gjerne vært der noen dager til! Ved innsjekk fikk vi en gratis oppgradering og en så utrolig koselig service. Jeg jobber selv i resepsjon på hotell og ble imponert over hvor serviceminded de ansatte er. Både av housekeeping, restaurant/frokostpersonell og resepsjon. Vi har storkost oss og kommer veldig gjerne igjen neste gang vi er i koh samui! Tusen takk for et supert opphold hos dere :)

Herrliche Anlage mit wunderschönen Pool. Große Zimmer mit Dusche und Badewanne. Perfekt gelegen, Einkaufen, Essen alkes gegenüber

Found Dara to be a lovely clean place to stay . Very helpful staff . Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a place on Koh Samui

Lovely hotel fantastic staff

Great hotel, centrally located, well maintained, excellent breakfast. Abagail and the rest of the staff were so friendly and helpful. Only thing preventing me from a full 5 stars is the beach was not as nice as Chaweng beach further south. The water was too shallow, as well as rock and weedy in some places. But if you don’t care too much about swimming in the ocean this hotel is awesome.

This is my second stay at the Dara. And can honestly say it will always be my Hotel of choice every time I visit Koh Samui. Love the place.

Thank you very much for your kindness. I spend nice days there.
