Just checked out from the akyra hotel in koh samui - we paid the upgrade to a one bedroom suite with sea view looking for a touch of luxury after a hectic three nights in Bangkok and four in Phuket. The hotel markets itself as luxury - I'm afraid in my opinion they fail to deliver on that score. I... More

Spending both solo time & with family at Akyra the friendly & efficient staff were very welcoming & made my/our stay a great experience. The rooms were v. clean & comfortable (love the extra free soft drink cans & water in the fridge a nice touch) & the bathroom products were excellent being some of the best experienced across Asia....

We really enjoyed our 5 night stay @ Akyra - rooms were simple but modern, staff were very friendly & the breakfast was great. only issue is the holding deposit, which they hold for the entire stay, and then debit your card for the full stay 4 days after you leave, which we weren't too happy about, but the actual...

We've stayed at Akyra Chura Samui for 10 wonderful nights! The place itself is amazing -- designed somewhat in a Japanese style, very very clean, with very pleasant rooms that each has a balcony. The overall atmosphere of the place is very relaxing, airy and clean. The swimming pool is just a meter over the sea shore, all within maximum... More

All in all we had a lovely visit, Akyra is close to both the main strip in Samui (Chaweng Beach Road) and just a stones throw away to the beach. They have 2 resturants of their own in the resort, one serving a fantastic... More

We have stayed in beach bungalow 107 and really enjoyed the space and design of the room and especially the open bathroom with the giant bathtub. I have been reading the reports... More

We stayed here for one night of our honeymoon before transferring to Koh Phangan. The staff were absolutely fantastic, particularly the front of house staff. They were so warm, welcoming and couldn't do enough for us. Our room was ok, nothing fancy; functional for a one night stopover. It was meant to be a 'deluxe' room but was very small... More

While the concept, design and staff are very nice, the hotel suffers from too little space. Too many rooms and bungalows are scrambled into a little space. Especially with many families with children it becomes a noisy and busy place. The pool is too small for the number of guests and the beach doesn't really deserve that name. Sand and... More
