I stayed at the chaweng noi residence for five weeks from mai to june and i loved this place at all i always feel like at home ,their is no hotelstress , it`s a very quiet (some time you only her "tuke"from the geckos) and family like place and quickly you now each other staying their ! Specialy it whas a great pleasure to meet Sylvie , Saverio and her nice daughter Fiona the family which life permenently their also Jean-Marc the manager , they`re very helpfull and can give you some good tips for a nice stay in samui and they help you by any problems as possible ! Apple the reseptionist ,is a very friendly and sympatic Thaiwomen , she helps to take care for the place and if you have some cloths to wash or you need somthing else for the appartement you just tell her , she also organize trips to angthong nationalpark or other things a round the island . the appartements are very nice and spacious with one or two balkony and a small kitchen , all in a modern style and very clean , like the hole place is ! the residence is between chaweng and lamai a sort walk from the beautyfull chaweng noi beach the best part of chaweng beach and not so busy , their you can find some good thaifood very ceap or you eat by one of the luxery hotels (not ceap) , towels for the beach you will have in your appartement to! To reach the chaweng beach-road or lamai you take a songtaew (pickup-taxi) witch you just stop by the road , it`s the ceapest way to drive around , the taxi is to expencive or if you can then you rent a bike but may ask for insurence , if you have en accident it can give a lot of problems and cost may a lot of money ! At all i had a great time at chaweng noi residence and for sure i gone stay their again , see you soon their.
