I was really impressed by the staff at the Honey Cottages, who seemed genuinely pleased to help you. The cottages are run like a family firm and indeed a lot of them are nephews of the owner, Sam,and are great guys to a man. The bungalows are clean, roomy and great value.

Accommodation and facilities:
Disappointing - not worth the rate we paid:
Day 1: checked in after 3pm - they showed us to the wrong room (cheaper room not facing the beach); had to wait for half an hour to get a better room prepared. Had 3 hours of not electricity and no water (a few hotels affected)
Day 2: Came back at nearly 4pm after the day out, they were just cleaning the room - soap etc not replenished, room not properly swept. No water for more than an hour just after we returned
Day 3: room not thoroughly cleaned.
Overall:
- very average bathroom, not very well maintained
- small room, very little space to hang clothes, towels etc
- light, a little soiled white curtains, so forget about sleeping in after sunrise.
We spent much time researching Samui hotels - rates and reviews were good; so this was a real let-down
Reservation service:
OK. 100% payment in advance becomes a sore point when the room is so disappointing

Accommodation and facilities:
Room and staff were excellent. Wifi excellent. Breakfast mainly good. I would have liked a social area, but the bar was not comfortable due to unpleasant beat music. It was usually nearly empty, so other people may think the same. The music from next door cafe was even more unpleasant and rather spoiled the lounge chair area.
Reservation service:
No problems. The payment arrangements and methods worked smoothly.

Accommodation and facilities:
This hotel is one of the best we have stayed at. Not that the room are extraordinary, but the atmosphere and the hospitaly are best. The resturang have very fresh and good food. Here you have breakfest every morning were they make your food on order. Not a buffé which stays 3 hours in the morning.
Reservation service:
Very good

Accommodation and facilities:
Very nice placed cottages close to a quite ok beach. The bar at the hotel insist on playin music every day from 10 am until 11 pm which is very sad. ( This is the only hotel around the beach that does this.) The room needs refurbishment and feels now rather overpriced. Brekfast is kind of boring. Very nice food at the restaurant though. The bar at the hotel is terribly overpriced. Staff is nice and friendly
Reservation service:
Great booking service! Shall use it again

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at Honey Cottages the 1st being in 2008 this year we brought all the family we love the place great surroundings, everything we need, and from the bar staff, to the cleaners to the receptionists, excellent service, food delicious. I have the greatest respect for the Thai people you can only be happy when you are with them,we could learn a great deal about hospitality from them. Wonderful holiday

Accommodation and facilities:
This is a very nice hotel with a group of delightful cottages right on a quiet beach. The staff were friendly and helpful - for example, they noticed we had been putting on pajamas on some cool evenings and then brought us a light duvet for the bed - very thoughtful. There is a very good, reasonably priced restaurant associated to it situated in a prime spot too.
