Ko Phaluai Holidays

The check in was quick and the lovely woman on gave us an upgrade to a better room! The staff were all great, we loved the pool and everything was within easy access! The bonus was a sweet wee cat who visited us each morning for pats! We will definitely stay here again

We loved our stay staff where very helpful

Great hotel in a fantastic location, just a 15-minute walk along the beach to Fisherman’s Village. I stayed in a lovely bungalow facing the water and really enjoyed my stay. The staff were friendly, helpful and attentive throughout. There were, however, a few downsides worth mentioning: 1) The hotel ferry service to Fisherman’s Village is very limited, and taxis are surprisingly expensive compared with other parts of Thailand I’ve visited. 2) The Wi-Fi was very poor. I constantly had to log back in, which became quite frustrating. 3) Most importantly, the concrete surface around the pool is badly deteriorated in places and could be dangerous if someone falls. I saw a young boy fall and take the skin off his knee. This really does need urgent attention from the hotel. Despite these issues, I had a very enjoyable stay and would definitely stay at Celes again if I return to Koh Samui.

Highly recommend the Suite (Holiday Sea View)-the view is impeccable. Lots of stairs though, but thankfully staff carries your bags to and from the room. It’s a little farther from the shopping/nightlife, but this makes for a quiet escape.
