The Kala is a beautiful place and the staff was extremely professionel in a very discreet way - they were vey helpfull and willing to do whatever they could to make our stay perfect. For a couple looking for quality time in a quiet place far away from the noisy beaches - the Kala is ideal! We highly recommend the... More

Location, location, location... A fantastic resort on a beautiful spot; On top of rocks with GREAT view. Right on the water, next to palms & rainforest and close enough to the city of Chaweng to get there in less than 10 min... and yet, at a safe distance to the disco´s and bars. Breakfast from heaven - go for he... More

This was the first hotel to mark our round the world trip. This was a last minute change for us due to deciding to stay away fom flood affected Bangkok. We are so glad we made this decision. On check in we were sat down and given a tropical drink which was a nice way to start. After being shown... More

Before becoming a favorite tourist destination, Samui used to be a sleepy fisherman town, where there were countless number of coconut trees. I had a chance to visit Samui when I was in high school almost 30 years ago. I remembered lodging in a small bungalow owned by my friend's father. Even though there were several inconveniences of reaching Samui... More

I know Koh Samui pretty well and I have been there many times. I find Lamai the best area to stay if you are looking for a quiet location on a tropical island. If you like instead a busy touristy spot with any sort of restaurant and shops at few steps, this area and The Kala is not for you.... More

Location terrible. Shuttle service one way and just one at 11 to lamai and other at 4 to chaweng. It is expensive for your money value. Almost no compliments in rooms. Outside you will find a road. That's all. Poor illumination it seems a cavern. You have your own transportation or you are dead. We cancelled our stay after the... More

The hotel in general is pleasant and nice. The rooms are nice and large, bathrooms have big baths and separate shower. Soap is really cool, in the shape of a coconut (kala). The staff are helpful and attentive. The location is perfect if you want peace and quiet. No access to a beach but compensated by decks just above the... More

Had 4 days in Samui where we just wanted to relax, and the Kala Samui was perfect for this. Friendly staff. The rooms were very spacious and our view was perfect. The only two drawbacks were 1) we could not find the beach club at the neighbouring hotel. The Kala does not have a beach (which we knew when we... More

Kala resort is one of the very best places I've ever been. Me, and my girlfriend enjoys travelling, and staying at cool, and nice places during doing so. We arrived to Koh Samui with a feeling of that the island might be a little too much touristic, and destroyed. Based on that our thinking was to pretty fast move on.... More
