Sheraton Samui Resort

It’s a very nice setting by the beach. I enjoy the drinks a lot. And my massage treatment by Andy was excellent. Staff are friendly and helpful. But I wish there were more direction signs as I got lost a couple of times walking from my room to the lobby.

We stayed at this hotel from November 1st to November 10th.

1. Location: The hotel is located on a mountain, get ready to pretend to be a mountain goat. There are bugs, but getting through to the reception is a quest. After rain, walking around the hotel grounds due to the steep slopes is dangerous.
2. Room: The rooms are old, the walls are dirty, stained with something. The bath was dirty. The air conditioning is very loud. Upon arrival, an inscription of plants was laid out on the bed from which some bugs were jumping on the bed for 3 days. The bites and allergies from these bugs went away for more than 2 weeks
3. Food: The hotel is located right next to the sea, but you shouldn’t count on sea food or even fish. For 10 days we were fed sausages and breeding for Thai food (the food from the street vendors was much tastier). It is especially worth noting the vodka with tomato juice offered for breakfast. When asked by the staff what it is, they answer that vodka is the hotel’s signature drink that helps you wake up. According to the staff, apparently all tourists drink vodka in the morning.
4. Swimming pool: The pool by the beach is open only until 7 pm. It is lined with small sharp stones and on the very first day they scratched their knees on the bottom. How people relax there with children remains a mystery.
5. Entertainment: There is absolutely nothing to do at the hotel in the evening. A tiny gym. There is a tennis court, located in the sun, closed at 7 o'clock. There is 1 bar on the beach, it is always empty.
6. Beach: On the hotel beach there are huge boulders in the water. If you want to swim safely, you need to go to the neighboring beach about 50 meters away.

I do not recommend staying at this hotel.
