The hotel was perfect, beyond imagination. Excellent service. We really liked the employee Tony, he always lifted our spirits and was always with good energy.

Wow, we’ve stayed at plenty of ultra premium hotels worldwide but what makes this property special other than the view on arrival is the exceptional service. It mirrors the personal touch of a boutique getaway (very similar welcome to the w Maldives). We travelled with two small children and the staff went out their way to make things easy and relaxing for us. During our stay we had a small personal issue, Alex the general manager took care of us. Definitely check out namu restaurant by the beach one evening, we also very much enjoyed cocktails at the “w bar”. So many staff to mention, we’re not good at remembering names but Peter, Tony, cookie and beer I remembered. Reception, syp bar, w bar, kitchen table staff were all faultless, actually outstanding! Thank you w Samui, we’ll be back!

We stayed in an ocean front room that had a private pool and was steps to Sip, a beachfront bar. The staff was incredible from top to bottom. By day 2 everyone knew who we were and went out of their way to make us feel welcome.

Just a great hotel with super friendly staff. Whether reception or at breakfast, you were always treated very nicely and always welcomed. Every wish was fulfilled. We had a great time at the WHotel and can recommend the hotel 100%! The villas with private pool offer good relaxation and privacy. The Beach is also great, equipped with its own bay and comfortable beach chairs, sandbags or cabanas. Many thanks also to Peter, who was always helping us and also gave us great tips about the environment! We will be back !!!

We had a lovely stay here in spite of some rainy conditions. Boom and Bear in the fitness center were fantastic, leading us in Muy Thai, Yoga and HIIT classes. The entire staff goes above and beyond to make sure you are well taken care of!

From the minute you arrive at the W Retreat Koh Samui you are met with the Wow factor. The view from the lobby is absolutely breathtaking!! The pool villas were modern, beautifully decorated & very private and had direct access to the beach. Staff were very friendly & attentive. Had the most incredible meal at Namu. Thank you to the amazing chefs who just created something special for me based on what I felt like - no menu required.

This is definitely a resort with wow factors in many ways. Besides the breathtaking view of Gulf of Thailand and the Maenam Beach, the staffs left me a nice impression as well, General Manager Nick himself gave us a personal tour introduction at the beginning which led to a wonderful stay for us at W Retreat Koh Samui. Worth coming again and again!
