Belmond Napasai

We stayed at Napasai Samui for one night in Sep 2025, and it was the most impressive, memorable and beautiful stay that we have ever experienced. We were greeted at the reception by the concierge who offered for us to beat a gong at the entrance. This felt really special as well as being offered a Phuang malai (flower garland), welcome drink and coconut ice cream. We had arrived a few hours before our check-in, but the staff went above and beyond to get us into our room without delay. Our room was private, spacious and sincerely the most stunning bedroom with gorgeous wooden interior - Everything you could really ever want in a private space. As for the view, it would be hard to beat in any other location. We were generously upgraded to an ocean view villa, which meant there was uninterrupted views out to sea - and it really did feel like our own private space. Quiet, calm and peaceful. The staff of Napasai Samui helped make the stay extra special as I proposed to my partner at the resort (This was to be our final night on the island before returning to Bangkok). They helped me to organise for petals to be placed throughout our room whilst we were out to dinner, and this service went beyond my expectations. Special mention to Napat, who I was communicating with via Insta DM's (@Napasaisamui). Response time was excellent and they were incredibly collaborative and helpful when working out the best option for the proposal. From lavish and expressive ideas, to more intimate and private, Napat really helped to explore all options to best suit... and the final choice was perfection. Kudos for the assistance. We were also offered a complimentary head and shoulders massage in the spa which was outstanding, as well as free use of all of the water activity equipment which was easily accessible without fuss down on the beach. As for their beach, this is private. No connection to other hotels or resorts, it was all ours and safely cared for with pristine sand and water. No chance of stepping on anything in the water you don't want to. The water is also safely marked out with a rope area so that you know that marked area is entirely safe to explore (perfect for families). On the morning of our departure, the breakfast service was magnificent with plenty to choose from - readily available options that were fresh and at perfect temperature, and options for requested foods too (eg pancakes/eggs). A beautiful array of fruits, vegetables, meats, yoghurts and all types to suit dietary requirements. Following this, we continued to make use of the resorts snooker and pool facilities (infinity pool was divine and heated too). To summarise, if you are considering to stay at Napasai Samui, do it as I promise you will not regret it. Hands down the very best location I have ever stayed in my life. PS. Myself and my 'Fiancee' (she said yes 😁) have already discussed coming back for our honeymoon - Thank you everyone at Napasai, Samui.

The whole experience at Napasai was incredible. The hotel per se is beautiful and the staff is extremely dedicated. They made our stay unforgettable.

We had an amazing time at Napasai. Perfect in every sense of the word. Special thanks to Alla, Pare, Song, Emmy, Smile, Ai, Zackie, Aon and the rest of the team. A family holiday we won’t forget that’s for sure.

Very pleasant vacation, friedly and helpful staff, the right place to relax, with the possibility of excursions to the island and the sea. Thanks:-)

5 star resort with 5 star service. It has a luxury meets nature feel (my fave) and you feel like you are in Thailand. It’s not just another luxury resort plopped in an exotic location. This resort feels unique, Thai, and looks like paradise. I loved my Sea View Villa. It had an amazing view, a beautiful Thai style design, and privacy. I appreciated that the resort was not overcrowded. It was easy to find shaded seating on the beach and by the pool, and I always felt like I had my own personal space. The pool is massive and beautiful. There is easy access to included ocean equipment like SUPs, kayaks, and windsurfers. Food was very high quality and I appreciated having 2 onsite restaurants to choose from (one directly on the beach.) Ultimately, I felt as if I had the ability to have the privacy and peace of a private luxury villa with the amenities of an absolutely beautiful 5 star resort. I can’t not mention the service. The staff are friendly, attentive, and work to create an individualized experience. Napasai has a useful app that has all needed info and allows you to text staff with requests or concerns which are quickly addressed. I was able to arrange 2 excursions and a private cooking class easily. There was no up-charge on these activities (I compared similar options online before booking through the hotel) and their recommendations were better than what I found on my own. I was able to book a trip through the hotel that was listed as sold out online. I also appreciated all the little touches, such as a Thai fruit and a nighttime candy-like snack delivered to the room each day. They even sent me home with a personalized thank you gift. I highly recommend this resort. Of note, I was the only solo traveler that I saw during my stay. Other visitors were families or couples. I never felt uncomfortable, but it is helpful to know the average clientele.
